I’ve started having conversations with Babanbo-sama before a single pull. It goes a little something like this:

“Okay.. so, I know I wasted all my luck on day one and two, but I’d really like it if you could bring Ako-chan home. I need her to finish the New Year’s set and I’ll be realllly upset if I don’t end up getting her.”

Then I have a conversation with Ako.

switches to her live 2D model “Hi Ako, so I understand that you haven’t, and maybe don’t want to, come home. Listen, I need you to complete the set. I love you and your demon princess aesthetic, I don’t really like Tomoe, but I’ll love her if you can come home for me. You’re just so cute, and I love your hair and your dress and everything and.. please come home..”
