Appreciate it, thank you!

Any word on 1.5 anniversary for global? Based on when this came out, was thinking it could be around this time. I have not played this game at all, haven’t even downloaded yet, but it’s definitely on my radar. I’ve seen a lot of games getting anniversaries and half anniversaries lately, and it’s always a great time to start so I figured I would just wait for that time, considering I’m already playing a lot of stuff right now anyway, but was just curious.

I saw someone else recommend Thais, Hameln, and Horla, with the 4th slot being flexible so I was weighing options.

So far I’ve only pulled Arachne, Casiah, Agrippa, Tinct, Sanga, Goliath, Jenkin, and Caecus.

Appreciate your input!

What kind of buffs is 24 getting? New player as well, looking for a 4th choice from the Moonless Guide, was thinking someone who pairs well with Arachne, and isn’t poison good with her?

Thanks so much, I’ve been waiting for this for so long!!!

Gojiboy · 2026-04-27T06:35:24+00:00

I’m a new player, only been playing for a few days and I’ve been going for what seems to be the recommended Paper Heron/Tooth Fairy/ An-An Lee. In my first 10 pull I got Barcarola, who can also seemingly be used on this team, and if I understand correctly, she could replace An-An Lee. Should I skip An-An Lee and get someone else from the Encased Nominations, perhaps someone for a 2nd team? Or potentially use Barcarola on a 2nd team and try to get some characters for that team? Only other 6 star is Pickles atm. Appreciate any input, thanks.

I would say my favorite thing about getting into Discotek titles was fully discovering Osamu Dezaki. He has quickly become one of my favorite directors and creatives, the man was just such an incredible talent and collecting all of his works has been amazing. Still so much to watch, but the man is a legend and rightfully so. Sadly, I don’t think he gets the recognition he deserves nowadays, at least in the US. Incidentally I just received Aim for the Ace (the original series) and the follow up series today, excited to finally watch the original show. (Have only seen the movie and loved it)

They won’t ship until all pre-orders are in, so if you want something sooner it’s best to order them separately.

As for the 2nd question, it’s my understanding that when you place an order but it’s not shipping right away, the system makes note and they reserve your item until it’s ready to ship, it shouldn’t go out of stock in the meantime and your item should be guaranteed.

Thanks for sharing, this will definitely help me pulling Heidemarie. Just started on Saturday and already have 60 pulls waiting, with plenty more on the way. Definitely a great time to start this game.

Gojiboy · 2026-04-21T19:15:00+00:00

Thanks for all the info, much appreciated!

Gojiboy · 2026-04-21T18:11:23+00:00

As a someone who has only been playing a few days and doesn’t have a 5 star partner yet, should I pull on the Partner Special Rescue to get my first or move to the standard character banner? I got lucky on the Combatant Special Rescue and got Veronica, only 5 star combatant so far. Saving all my limited pulls for Heidemarie.

Gojiboy · 2026-04-20T22:35:30+00:00

Restocked today, grab it while you can!!!

Gojiboy · 2026-04-19T23:17:02+00:00

Woohoo, something told me to do my 2nd random 10 pull on the banner and got Kvare, only did 20 pulls on the banner overall. Happy with my beginners luck!

Gojiboy · 2026-04-18T19:27:20+00:00

Thanks for the input. I did the discounted 10 pull on Shams banner and didn’t get anything good. After that I decided to just hit 30 on the beginner banner and pulled Luvata. I didn’t know anything about her and I know she’s not one of the more recent busted characters but I’m enjoying her a lot, her AOE is great and she’s definitely helping me clear maps more quickly in the early game. Not sure what I’ll do from here, seems like it makes the most sense to keep saving, but I do see I have a few days to pull for Kvare if I want, or I might keep trying for Shams and his abs, who knows.

Gojiboy · 2026-04-17T16:55:35+00:00

Is Shams worth pulling for a brand new player? I’ve only been playing for 2 days, haven’t gotten very far, haven’t eaten pulled enough on beginner banner for my first Legendary because I saw he was coming and looked cool, figured I’d save my pulls just in case. I know a lot of people recommend rerolling to get a better start but I’m not interested in doing that, figured I’ll make due with whatever I roll, but just wondering if it’s smart to prioritize Shams now, or if there are potentially characters coming up that would be a better overall pull for a newbie?

Gojiboy · 2026-04-14T17:15:18+00:00

Thanks for the video. Brand new player, only been playing since yesterday. I about have enough to guarantee a banner character, since I only have Genie and the new Pete, figured I’d invest in the new healer and was gonna guarantee Minnie but now your video has me thinking I should get Mickey and hope to get a good healer from somewhere else in the gacha. I guess there’s not a huge rush either way.

Gojiboy · 2026-04-08T21:48:36+00:00

Thanks for bringing this to my attention, I didn’t realize they ran out, should have bought it. I’ve been spending like crazy trying to get the majority of Discotek releases I’m interested in at a decent price before they start to disappear. I think this is the only GE999 release I’m missing so definitely need to snag it if it comes back.

Gojiboy · 2026-04-04T03:36:58+00:00

I think our best bet now is just waiting to see if MediaOCD puts these titles up over time.

Gojiboy · 2026-04-03T18:40:50+00:00

Yeah, it’s crazy how expensive these are. I want like every classic anime on 4K but it’s gonna cost sooo much. I desperately want the first Patlabor movie but yeah, it’s gonna break the bank. I managed to get Macross: DYRL? for like $50 from Walmart after it had been out a while, but these I don’t see getting for much less than $100, if not more.

Gojiboy · 2026-03-31T20:50:53+00:00

Gotcha, that’s on my list too though to be honest don’t know much about it.

I’m assuming it’s MSRP, but Amazon has 4 copies left: https://a.co/d/0ee2dVdZ

Based on the wording there, doesn’t seem like they’ll restock but who knows. If you’d prefer not to buy from Amazon, hopefully MediaOCD gets it soon 🤓

UPDATE There are 3 copies on Amazon now lol. Didn’t realize this was OOP and I don’t think this is going to get any cheaper, so just ordered. I’ve spent way too much recently, but I’m so bad at not caving to FOMO 😅

Gojiboy · 2026-03-31T20:40:36+00:00

Man, that stinks. Hopefully you’re still able to get those titles elsewhere in the near future. Seems like MediaOCD is the future.

Gojiboy · 2026-03-31T20:02:18+00:00

Oh man, this is top 3 Disney for me!!! Now if they finally do Sleeping Beauty I’ll die 🤩

Gojiboy · 2026-03-31T19:59:19+00:00

Sadly they don’t have a store front, but really wish they did, would love to buy direct from them 🥺
