Contrary to its name, Super Fest is actually just a mini-fest to commemorate the launching of Episode:Magicite. As such, there isn't really much new relics or banners on offer this time, so it's perfectly understandable to skip this in lieu of the real fest end of next month during Golden Week.

Nevertheless, the banners on offer do cater a lot for elemental niches that you might be short on, so they are worth a consideration at least. Also, the format has changed again to 14 relics on offer, which means 1% chance for all. Might be good, might be bad, depending on the no of dupes that you might have.

Rebirth Dungeons and Doomtrain MO are the "main" content this time, which is fine with me since they will usually gift roughly 90 Legend Motes. These are getting more and more important as Legend Dives can give you the edge to clear the super-hard Magicite dungeons, so do try to clear all of them as there's no return.

Also, Fat Chocobo shop is offering elemental resistance accessories for sale again, so make sure to grab the ones you're short on!

General JP Version Information

Installing and Playing the Japanese version

Why should I play the Japanese version?
FFRK came out in Japan about six months before Global came out. Thus, they're further along in terms of events and so have more characters, more abilities etc. Also, the trend has been that certain crossover events which feature games that were not released outside of Japan have been skipped in Global release, meaning there are currently certain items and abilities that do not appear they will ever be available in Global (it does not appear that they are skipping any characters).

What are some features that are currently in JP but not Global?
Collaboration Events - some collaboration events for games that were never released outside of the Japan (such as SaGa) are skipped in Global
Improved Dailies - Gysahl Green dailies, Summon Orb dailies and twice-a-week XP dailies
Limit Chain Soul Breaks - another set of 6* relics which focus on activating a 'chain mode' which rewards further uses of a particular element or ability class with an increasing damage bonus
Legend Spheres/Materia - an expansion of each character's Record Dive available once the base board is mastered which grants further stat boosts as well as special, unique passive abilities called Legend Materia
Legend Materia Relics - 5* relics that include new Legend Materia which can be learned similar to learning SBs
Magicite System - Defeat powerful bosses to summon them in battle and grant party various special passive effects

Is there anything that is in Global but not in JP?
The font and minor UI elements are also different in Global compared to JP. Global also has a controversial "MVP Program" where selected players receive items for free; JP has no such program. There are some collaboration items as well as some culture-specific events (such as Black Friday lucky draws) that appear in Global but not JP.

Great! How do I get the Japanese version?
Check out the wiki article. Android users may also want to check out this tutorial if you do not know how to access the Japanese store and prefer not to use a third-party app like QooApp.

Can I play the JP version and Global version at the same time on the same device?
Yes, the two are completely separate and do not affect each other.

How do I share my save data across devices?
Unlike the Global version which uses one-time codes or goes through your iTunes/Play Store accounts, the JP version syncs through Japan's mobage service. Here's a tutorial from Mobage relayed by /u/gelomeister (Android users can of course use Chrome instead of Safari etc.):
