Intro - "No SIMP-ing Allowed"

Besides the, blah, blah, obligatory "even though this isn't Pokemon Go, watch your surroundings and stay alert" warning, don't wanna risk getting isekai to some place that's NOT the Soul Society or Hueco Mundo. Practice common sense outside.

But here's an extra warning, remember that there's "NO SIMP-ing Allowed" public places, over there people will think that you're looking at ecchi or worst, hentai. During the actual in game events. They don't understand shonen, Tite Kubo or us.

Note: This is one of the reasons why I made this Steam guide mostly smuggle safe. So, you can take it into those places.

Intro - Cool For Summer

Originally posted by ShiroTenkai:
"Don't pull for meta, pull for waifu."

This guide takes a long while to do, it doesn't matter, if you're a Sprout or a Vet, saving for this game's birthday is a long process. But worth it.

Though I don't think this guide CAN prepared ya to get the waifu/husbando, the Anniversary, the limited Summons AND a Steam game or two in one shot. It can only do the first two as far as I can see.

Note: I am trying to lessen the fanservice a bit, because we need to concentrate and strategize to get both the fanservice, the Anniversary Summons AND a Steam game on the side. Save the SIMP-ing for the actual Swimsuit banners.

Second Note: Help me catch any inaccurate information, incorrect grammar and misspellings.

Be Aware: This guide is only hyper focus on the Swimsuit and Anniversary banners. It doesn't take into consideration the other good banners that appears in EOM/EOY, the Summons that are good/a good match for your playstyle/ that ya might find more interesting or the limited banners that randomly appear/limited banners that pop up every 3 months.

Don't forget to:

Before You SIMP

Balgo: "Come to Papa, my Swimsuit Nel (2022)."

This is a huge farming and hoarding preparation, and if you're a new Sprout. It's best to start the preparations the minute you begin the game (Besides making a KLab ID and syncing your Bleach stuff to it). Even though KLab is drowning ya with Orbs at this moment.

KLab ID Sync Guide

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2744501611

Your BBS game is not connected to Steam per se, ya have to make a KLab ID and such. It's one of those games that doesn't have do cloud save. So, get your serious affairs in order, before you SIMP.

Da Purpose

The BBS Anniversary training will be like when the Vizards are teaching Ichigo on how to control his Hollow powers, except we're Ichigo and the Hollow powers are the temptations of our Swimsuit waifu.

The main purpose is to save and hoard on the tickets and Orbs for Anniversary. It's because the Anniversary banner has Premium Summons that are reportedly to be better than the rest, they are balance (as far as KLab and power creeps can go), cooler* and are the walking showcase of the newest meta.

Mega-Green Herb Lollipop Tip

Remember: ONLY SUMMON if you're interested in the boobas/pecks and the new Premium Summon. If not, it's best to save dem Orbs for the limited banners, other EOM/EOY banners, and something that ya REALLY, REALLY want, or next year's Swimsuit and Anniversary banners.

* The word "cooler" is subjected here, it's all how ya would define cool.

Quest For Orbs

Album

This Pokemon Storage is your friend, it will tell you what are your new Summons, which ones that you Rez, which ones that ya don't have, and such. It will help you find new cares and keep things in track.

The card thingy are just a first time only, after that, ya can't get Orbs from the exact same Summons.

You need to find out the Orb locations, like maxing out Characters, mainly the Level Cap tree stem and fusing the dupes. Do this for the lower Non-5 Stars/Non- 6 Stars. They will always drop Orbs. That's why ya buy the Normal lower tickets from the Exchange Shop as well, to find new Characters to max out.

(Warning: Your album doesn't lie, it's just that KLab doesn't release ALL of the Summons. There are some that are extinct, KLab quit releasing them. So, there's gaps in your album and it's not your fault.).

Chronicle Quest

With Chronicle Quest, ya need bags to exchange them for the Orbs in the shop. But you need special characters to increase the much needed bag drops.

Here's a list of these special Summons.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2815568422

Senkaimon

A special Senkaimon tower will pop up during this time, progressing up the tower will reward you with Orbs.

Point Events

These limited time events will give out Orbs, extra supplies (like Scrolls, Revival Candles and ) and Summoning tickets. Try to farm.

Multiplayer Modes

Do the multiplayer modes, like Epic Raids, Arena, and co-ops, they will give out special tokens to redeem Orbs from the Exchange Shop.

Dough

Everything in this guide (and game) spells that
we're Gama-Chan abusers.

Don't be quick to spend the real money, unless, you're really, really desperate/have nothing else that you'd rather buy. Plus, the tickets will probably give ya new Characters to max out and nab the few extra Orbs (This doesn't exactly work if you're a long time vet). This is an at the last resort case.

Waiting Game

It's a bit of a torture, but wait to see what the actual EOM is. If it's uninteresting, just go with waifu or the limited banners that will come later.

TapJoy

Abuse Tapjoy, it pays if ya sync the Steam version of this game with the mobile version. Just to nab the extra Orbs. But first ya need to complete some game requirements that they set, subscribe to some magazine and/or Olay, or help this good cause.

There are certain days when the Tapjoy deals offers 2x the usual deals, take advantage of this to get double the Orbs.

First World Problems: Depending on your wits, the Tapjoy offer, and how fast ya complete them. Don't brag about your Orb count, since some gamers will accuse you of being a hacker.

Note: Careful, despite that Tapjoy itself is legit. Some of the offers are scams and/or from companies that scam. There's also the fact that some of the good offers aren't available on certain mobile devices or worst, aren't available in certain countries. Just as worst, some of the non-scammy offers are bad deals.

Second Note: With some of the Tapjoy games, ya have to start the game immediately after downloading. Because, if ya don't, things will glitch out and you won't received those Orbs.

Green Herb Lollipop Tip

It's okay to skip on the Premium banners, ya don't need to summon EVERY time ya waifu/husbando peeps out. Just save the Orbs. There's no shame with skipping. Remember, we're here for the biggest SIMP-ing time, the Anniversary, the limited banners that are gonna come later, and a Steam game or two (this is for the real dough your Steam wallet).

Swimsuit Banners

For the sake of the demo, pretend that this Manor rerun banner is the Swimsuit Banner that contains Mila Rose, Noel (or Ninny) and Yamamoto that pops up when the Anniversary draws near.

Originally posted by Mugenasta:
"You need her, but does she need you? Think about this."

Now, even though these guys are good for "the least horniest Bleach fan" and have good stats/abilities. They're a trap banner, design to prey on our desires, SIMP-ing, and be mega broke for Anniversary.

KLab would even do reruns of banners of good Summons, like the Manor banner featured here, just for this purpose only. They will also do this for Non-Seasonal Summon banners. Just to cause a distraction and to make us Orb broke for both the Swimsuit and Anniversary banners.

Don't fall for most of these banners, even if they have "Old reliable" but cool Pots. Just do the free steps, if they have it or do the "Free Daily Summon Mix."

Note: If ya really want some of the Summons from these trap banners, especially if the Summon in question is very useful (Like some Pot), just do 2 or 5 steps (This depends on just how Orb broke ya are).

Swimsuit Waifu/Husbando Vs. Gaben

This is the most difficult decision of them all, do you sacrifice your Steam wallet for the cool discounts for wishlisted games or waifu/husbando. Either way, your actual wallet will cry, ya won't be able to make the rent and buy lattes.

But this is a special chapter to make the most of it, maybe ya might get lucky: getting both your waifu/hubsando and some of the games on your wishlist.

Ya have to practice timing, if ya want the Seasonal Simp Character pack, some Orbs for summoning and your wishlisted game(s).

Prepare Your Wallet

That pay check ain't gonna be enough for the SIMP-ing, Steam sale deals, and Anniversary.

Stock up on Steam wallet gift cards in an imaginary "Save for Rain" jar, that's set aside. Now Orbs, Brave Battle Summon tickets and whatnot aren't just the only things that hoarding. Because, ya need the Steam gift cards for the Mysterious Waifu/Husbando Character package, extra Orbs for the Summoning, and your Steam game wishlist deals.

Now Steam gives us a schedule ahead of when the sales will come in, whether it's the tiny "Whatzit Fest" or the big fishes that are the Summer and Winter sales. That way you can prepare, during the in between time and you will know when the wallets are gonna be borderline injured.

Examples

Current And Previous Sales[steamdb.info]

The Summer Sale

The other thing that one has to remember that during this time, everyone and the last remaining Quincies are spending on the beginning days of the Summer Steam Sale. The servers are gonna glitch out or worst, crash.

First Wave

Buy the cheapy wishlisted game now, instead of during the last day. It's also best to check your wishlist, see if there's price drops.

Orbs Will Roll

Buy what you're gonna play, don't dive bomb just because it's a good deal. Instead, use that money for ya Bleach waifu, DLC for that game that you're currently playing, or gifting to your chum or frienemy. It's better to have a fun game that ya can play, instead of having it sitting there gathering dust. (I know that we won't follow this advice).

Hidden Gems

Some of the gaming Youtubers/Twitch guys that you're subscribe too will give ya some good suggestion. Same with curators. (Though one needs to dig through the slough of filth to find the diamonds).

Over 9,000 Deals

Some sites and launchers, will offer ya good deals during this time. Others, like Humble Bundle, will assist with snagging those nice Steam deals, especially if it's gonna be in a huge bulk.

"Failing"

If ya didn't get your waifu, good games and such. Take deep breathes and say that there's another sale (Besides, this guide is also mainly on how to reunite with your waifu/husbando. No matter how long it takes). There's even tiny tales, like the Publisher Sales, and the big Winter Sale.

Yoru-Claus is not just Santa's helper, she's also a matchmaker and waifu-finder.

Though the Bleach: Brave Souls character packs take approximately a year-ish. You're better off waiting for the next Seasonal, "strange" banners,* or even voting in the BBS polls.

Here's an example of a "strange" fillers in the Hueco Mundo Summons: Tres Cifras: Selection One. Seasonals, like this Machine Society Marshiro, appear sporadically as fillers in a Premium banners. Other times, they don't show up.

* They're not technically "strange" per se, they're just normal banners, whose fillers contain the seasonals.

Da Anniversary

Szayelaporro: I know that you went crazy over the Swimsuit Rangiku Summons. I hope that you have enough Orbs and tickets for the BIG day.

Dem Tickets

For the first part of the Anniversary, The hoarding of 4 Star/5 Star, 6 Star and Brave Summoning tickets will increase one's chances of getting the Anniversary Character, though the chances are insanely low, despite the slight boost and high rate to get them now. The idea of the tickets is so you won't waste Orbs and still get the Anni Character.

Ya should start saving those tickets

NOW

and ya need beyond 1,000 tickets*. But ya need to start going gung-ho on Point Events, the Exchange Shop, and rise up the ranks in Brave Battles. (Honorable mentions, Epic Raid, Guild Quest and certain co-op modes will reward you with tickets or give you enough play coins to go redeem like crazy. But it's either a weekly thing/monthly thing or slim drops). The reason to go beyond, it's because the rates of nabbing the newest Anni character is just as slim, just like your chances of obtaining him via Orb summoning.

Act as if the tickets are Orbs lite, horde them as much as ya can. (They're just as a valuable resource, but not as up there as the Orbs. Ya can use them to regain Orbs if you need a new Summon).

The only time when we will know who the Anni guy is is when Bankai Live does the reveal.

* It's all up to you of how many 4/5 Star and Brave Summoning tickets ya want to save, as long as ya have enough to be lucky and get the Anniversary Summon on the actual date.

Anniversary Part 2

Yep, Parasol Macy is both a rare limited and a Seasonal. The worst combo known to man.

The second part of Anniversary is when the limited banners will drop. The ones that really need your Orbs. The whole event is a celebration of trap banners.

Remember, the Seasonals, like the Swimsuits and Anniversary Summons, are "easier" to get, they show up more frequently, ya can even vote for them to show up in the Poll Selection and ya might get lucky and she'll come home in a rare chance. Unlike whatever limited, some show up every three months, season/holiday to who knows when those show up, like Burn The Witch. (The Parasol Macy is a crazy combo of both a Seasonal and a Limited banner, she won't show up, unless, BTW is announced, therefore, don't expect her to pop out, during Lunar New Year or White Day. Waifu will pop out, but not her.).

Semi-bad example, but this re-run is mainly what to expect. Even if they're releasing new summons for the Thousand Year Blood War.

This is probably what you'll see, after stuff gets revealed at the "Bankai Live".

Note: By the time this guide is posted and whenever the TYBW Cour 2 pops out, most of the TYBW Summons are old by the veterans' standards, unless, expect for newer Summons that will come out while the anime is airing (Unless, these old Summons get rez). Examples of the new TYBW Summons are the Ichigo, Chad and Uyru that ya see in this re-run banner.

Take Me Down Into Paradise

(Note: Show 2023 swimsuit banner spreadsheet thingy).

So, you just download the game, got both your BBS account and KLab ID set up, and are psyche. You have a ton of a zilliion resources at your disposal.

Just run a bit wild.

According to the vets, it's usually good to start downloading and playing in Seasonal events, mainly in these big ones.

Mega-Green Herb Lollipop

Jot down what your first Summon, the first Orb count, first banner and such. Ya will need to record your Substitute Shinigami tracks, just in case of an accident and ya need to ring up KLab. Just to restore your stuff, data, and your waifu/husbando.

Remember, this guide will explain in further detail and additional stuff.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2744501611

The reason why I have to reiterate this super-serious guide, it's because, I know that we're ALL are distracted by the sexy now.

She Wants Someone That's Perfect,... (How I Prep)

"She drools over imaginary men,..."

Note: I am good at conserving my stuff and at the time that this guide was posted, once of the reasons why I am slow at leveling up my Accessories and Characters (I began to calm down and practice some form of self control when the Manor banner dropped for the first time). Some of these tips won't work for ya, since, you and I are different.

I synced my Steam game to nab extra Orbs from my phone, just to "abuse" Tapjoy, the watch ads that gives rewards, and the Ad Summon banner, the latter might be a new Summon (4 Stars or 5 Stars) that I can milk.

I act as if my Orbs are down to zero. When that's not always the case at all.

Concerning the tickets, I try to calm myself down, stating that I won't use my tickets. Even if I want to re-gain my last Orbs.

I tried to calm down and take breathing exercises.

Even going into a mantra, telling myself:

"They'll come back in the next Seasonal banners/Bait Banners/etc."
"I can vote for them in the poll selection."
"There's a very rare chance that I might draw them in a normal banner./Obtain them in a normal ticket."*
"I will save my tickets for Anniversary, even though I am Orb broke."
"(I'll make good my threats concerning Orb hoarding.)"
"Calm down, take deep breaths, that Premium Waifu/Hubby can easily be obtained by tickets."
(Concerning the Premium tickets that I grind) " Calm down, just calm down, I have the latest Premium Banner Characters,... They're in Brave ticket form."
"I'm Orb broke, my Orbs are -9,000." - Even though this isn't true at times.

It's so, I don't go crazy and waste valuable resources, especially if a husbando or likable character shows up in a Premium banner or when bait banners appears*.

Last Ditch Survival

I pray to Rukia, Renji/RNGesus and Immunity Lily. Unless, I got on their bad side (More than usual), like fangirling over guys that wanted to kill them/kill guys that they care about or not getting a move on with finding a Gran Blue game.

Where My Priorities Lies

Now I prioritize the events that are gonna expire first, followed by the ones that will last longer.

Point Events

This is optional, mainly my own playstyle, but I keep playing until I get the "Event Quest Summon Ticket Number X". Just to maximize my chances. But ya can also go up to just the Orbs. Since, waifu/husbando is waiting.

Senkaimon

I make sure that my team are above 5/5/5 or at least, 10/10/10, and have the correct Accessories to make the trip. I wing it usually.
