I actually find it a pretty odd deal as well. 1,300 NGold for 2 5* and some random extras. If you ask me, they should make this a permanent one-time deal for new players as well.

Yeah, it sounds a lot like the newbie deal that DMM offers, but that doesn't have a limited period. On the other hand, DMM's newbie pool is smaller.

Edit: Apparently newbies got a starter pack deal too. Sakura for $6, though that also only lasts three days.

Uh, the newbie step-up gacha on DMM has a larger pool than this, which includes five additional 6-stars and over ten 5-stars definitely not found on Nutaku. Not to mention that that step-up gacha doesn't cost more than 5 USD overall.

I read somewhere that you don't have a DMM account, so I have to wonder where you got that assumption from.

I meant smaller in relation to their overall pool. Though that was misleading, I admit.

But I'm pretty sure the newbie deal came later in the timeline than this did (and given how early we got rainbow deals, this isn't a surprise), so it'd be obvious that DMM's newbie deal has girls we don't have yet.

Edit: Yeah, it was just last year DMM got the newbie deal, which is 5-6 events out from us.

Yippie an extra 100g draw - love it - always need more 3*'s
