Gacha & odds

The virtual gacha explained

The virtual gacha opens a copy of a real box — same slots, same guarantees, same print run. Cards are finite: the engine deals them from a deck built on the set print runs instead of rolling dice for each card. A pull costs WaifuCoins, and demo mode lets you watch it for free.

How cards are dealt

The key difference from plain randomness: a card with a small print run physically runs out.

A deck, not a dice roll Before dealing, a deck is built from the set print runs: the more copies were printed, the more places a card takes in the deck.

Guarantees hold If a box guarantees one SSR, you get it: the engine tracks the remaining guarantees per slot.

The box remembers Opened packs leave the box — your next pull continues the same box instead of starting a fresh one.

The deal is not reshuffled The card order comes from a seed, so reloading the page does not re-roll your result.

The gacha and the real box share their odds: the table on the set page and the pull read the same box structure. How to read it — see the drop rates guide.

What a pull costs

The pack sets the price — one to twenty WaifuCoins per pull.

WaifuCoins (₩) The site currency. The daily reward gives 10 ₩ or more per day, which is enough to pull — see the coins guide.

Demo mode Free pulls with a daily limit: the animation and result are real, but no coins are spent and nothing is added to your collection.

Unlock conditions Some packs have requirements — an account level or a subscription, for example. The condition is shown on the pack itself.

Promo packs Some packs are not tied to a set: their card pool is defined by hand rather than by a box structure.

Where your pulls go

Pulls land in a separate virtual collection, "My drops", and never mix with your marks for real cards.

The "My drops" collection Virtual cards live in your profile separately from physical ones, along with progress for virtual sets.

Trading on the site A pulled card can be offered to another collector or set as your profile avatar.

It is not a physical card The gacha does not ship anything. Real cards are bought from collectors on the market.

Common questions

Can I pull for free?

Yes. There is a demo mode with a daily limit, and the daily reward — granted once a day just for showing up — covers regular pulls.

Are the odds the same as in a real box?

Yes, the gacha reads the same drop table that is shown on the set page.

Which sets can I open?

The ones with a mapped box structure — over a hundred of them. The pack shelf opens from the gacha page.

Do I need an account?

Yes — a pull is tied to your account, which stores the box state, your balance and your pulls.

Open a box

Pick a set on the pack shelf — odds and contents are visible before you pull.
