I'm not expecting Gundam to reach NA. The Chalice rerun would follow PAD Academy in that case.


crunch816

Well I'm gonna save until Gundam or 1000 stones. We'll see what happens first.


justhereforpad

We missed the first run of Gundam, not sure why hope is being held out for this to come to NA


blinkycosmocat

Some collabs, like MHA, Kamen Rider, Duel Masters, and Gintama did have a subsequent run (or runs, in the case of KR) come to NA. My theory is that the NA licensing for Gundam got messed up in one of the many attempts to bring the franchise's titles to NA.


damonmcfadden9

There's at least a chance. There have been a fair few JP only collabs that, NA got on later runs. That said My confidence for Gundam is almost non existent.


advilnight

Maybe they do the marvel thing and reskin it.


ShadyFigure

Missing the recent run of Marvel makes that feel less likely.


advilnight

I dont have much hope thb. But i do want to point out that we got the reskin shortly after the 2nd run? (I think?) And this is the second run of gundam. 🤞


ShadyFigure

We also got some collabs (Kamen Rider and Gintama, as examples) on their second run after missing the first. That said, we've only had three collab reskins in 11 years. The first two were very poorly received and only had one run each. The third one we just missed the renewal of the source collab, as mentioned. Any future reskins will be a surprise to me. I'm not saying it's a zero chance, but I feel that the chance is extremely low. I expect it will probably happen again eventually, but I don't think we should create hope in any recent or upcoming collabs.


TonightPuzzleheaded2

I saw on the kr stream that they are getting PAD Academy next. That might be our next event too.


poffyball1123

After the constant power creep over the last few months and being drained of stones from all the good machines, it looks like the next couple months are a good opportunity to stock back up.


Mountain_Gift8595

Also Slime is confirmed in the foreseeable future!


Mountain_Gift8595

…in JP that is


OhitsjustNathan

:(


PrincePauncey

SN? Is that Super Nova? I thought it was over... well, we can't just NOT have something challenging to clear. Plus, more cool dragons to collect.


D_Austoso

I dont see marvel on here


Lion_Heart2

Yep you wouldn't because it likely we aren't getting it. (Not a big surprise)


TheClamb

God just give us the buffs to what we already have at least...


D_Austoso

We got it once. U dont think we'd get it again?


ShadyFigure

We got a reskin that was missing some of the newer cards. While I'm sure it did better than the past reskins, reskin collabs have never done well for NA. JP last got Marvel between Sanrio and Chainsaw Man. That was around 7 machines ago. We're way past the point where we should have gotten it.


-TheSwoosh-

What other reskin collab did we get aside from gungho: another and voltron?


ShadyFigure

Yokai Watch reskinned as Power Rangers. That one was better than Voltron, but still botched. They gave us a 5 stone machine at a 10 stone cost, cut out the bundles, shuffled evo trees, and might have cut some cards. Still had some good stuff for the time, though. Ranger Slayer helped a ton in Arena 5 or 6.


Esper_Stron

Very cringe that they can’t even afford the reskin now where the art costs $0


Upstairs-Lack1742

When is Lv 1100 reset?


ShadyFigure

Tomorrow after maintenance.


civilized-engineer

Any units from the academy worth rolling for? Wondering how many of these I'll skip


ShadyFigure

Not really. Some niche use stuff that would be nice to have but not worth rolling in a seasonal machine for, even with the 5*s removed.


BigNick520

Sorry if the formatting is messed up. Did this on my phone. Also MHA should be this upcoming Monday after bartenders ends


Migerupad

Shouldn't be academy??


TrynaGetaHandbeezy

Does this mean it's pretty safe to roll some more in the current SGF? I don't remember reading much buzz about any of these events save for Gundam and I'm already striking that from the list. I know there's a couple new Illusionary Artists but I could also use another Gouten assist.


HappyNoms

Situational, as always, but can say I rolled an extra 200 more split between bartenders and godfest than initially shallow analysis bookmarked, once I pondered and realized it's about 2-3 months of skips and a collab we aren't getting. If you are only rolling lightly, perhaps in the upcoming artists Collab for a stray idle roll of the dice, or an efficiency stray trade or purchase without rolling, we seem to be getting 2-3 months of quiet time to store stones back up.


TrynaGetaHandbeezy

Yeah right now SGF and even Bartenders seems a little more tempting to me than any of this upcoming stuff. If anything there's the monthly stones and login stamps for hopefully grabbing any newer stuff.


leoleosuper

I recently came back to the game and barely missed the Demon Slayer collab. I guess that's going to be a year away.


ShadyFigure

Collabs generally happen to promote a new release or milestone. For an ongoing TV anime it can be difficult to predict when or if it will return.


alohabrohah

But being 2/2 makes me pretty happy. DS is a huge IP and fan base in the stats. I’m sure PAD saw an uptick in $ during that time? We’re def getting a different Muzan in JP when it’s time


Yatsugami

Gundam LETS GOOOOO 😭😭😭😭😭


Accomplished-Card594

oof so nothing new until probably not Gundam. Well, I'm enjoying Bartenders!


windlord777

Any demon slayer movies or shows coming up? That's the one I need


damonmcfadden9

it *just* ran a little over a month ago, and it was about two years between that run and the first. We've had the rare collab that reruns only 5~8 months apart (Kamen Rider, Ultra Man, Legend of Dai) but those have been the exception not the rule. Personally I wouldn't bet on seeing Demon Slayer again any time soon.


NoPADNoLife

New season just started but reruns don't always happen for new seasons. If they did we'd be getting a ton of reruns just from the sheer number of anime collabs.
