- As part of the run up to Granblue Fantasy's 12th anniversary, Famitsu magazine is running its annual skyfarer survey, and the results will be published in the GBF anniversary edition that goes on sale March 12th. The survey closes on February 10th (JST)! www.famitsu.com/article/2026...
- After Premium Gala ends, the next draw banner will feature rate up on characters who appear in Monscian!
- Thanks to some assistance, we've updated the count: 66 characters added 67 characters removed We haven't made any updates to the Valentine's Day store links, and we plan on making a guide to creating your Cystore account and making orders when we can. docs.google.com/spreadsheets...
- By our count, this year's Valentine's list on the Cystore added ~64 new characters, while ~61 characters were removed from 2025's list. (Corrected with another one of the removals, sorry to the Valentin fans out there)
- (our count isn't 100% accurate since it was made on the fly during translation - Apparetei Rakusho and Rakko were left off the original list, so there are at least 5 more than last year overall)
- For those who are interested in making orders from the Cystore for this year's Valentines campaign, here's our list of translated store links for each of the 593(!!!) characters who can receive gifts and send thank-you cards in return. docs.google.com/spreadsheets...
- The Cystore page for Valentines cards has opened, and this year's list is now available! Time to see who's new and who's been removed from the list... cystore.com/Page/gb-vdcp...
- Akasaki's 10 Qs Q: Hobby? A: Thinking of ideas for my mystery novel Q: Wish list? A: Time to travel by myself Q: Favorite food? A: Nagashi somen Q: Anything in common with your character? A: Nope!! Q: Character merch? A: Good Night & Alarm Clock
- Q: In 10 years? A: A helper robot in every home Q: Favorite view? A: Warm places Q: Instrument you want to learn? A: Sax Q: Position you held in school? A: Event staff Q: Superpower you want? A: Any changes in my life go smoothly
- Akasaki also suggests an Arriet alarm clock - the lyrist Arriet would lull you to sleep, but if you failed to wake up to her alarm, out comes the sword.
- Akasaki's hobby is thinking of traps for a mystery novel she's writing, like "what if the pop guard on the mic was poisoned and the director told me to get up close and sound sexy" Katou Emiri thinks of making the giant Vyrn plush release gas or a hidden blade when hugged...
- Akasaki has been playing Arriet for a long time in multiple games, and she expected Arriet to reveal her true abilities for a long time, after so many hints at it in her dialogue and descriptions. It took 10 years in Granblue Fantasy.
- Granblue TV Channel is on the air now, with Akasaki Chinatsu (Arriet) in the studio as guest! There will not be any news this week (KoreGra came out 9 hours ago)

- Some math behind the chalice change: Current XP to level a Revenant weapon from 1 to 100 is ~72,000 Using 2 Chalices (with max passive bonuses) overpays by ~25,000 The new system will use 5 to auto-level each revenant weapon to 100
