Rolling Right Round (and round, and round, and round...!)
Do you like free Prayers? Great! The Kourindou Roulette is the event for you! Rinnosuke Morichika is a generous fellow, and he’s gonna help hook you up with some free Prayers! For ten days, you will get either ten, twenty, thirty, or even if you’re lucky a hundred Prayers each day - with a hundred guaranteed to happen on the tenth day if you haven’t already gotten it at least once before. You may have some questions as to how exactly it works, so here’s a complete rundown:
Every account will gain access to the roulette after completing the prologue - if you don't see it pop up right away, either return to the title screen via menu --> back to title, or simply close and re-open the app. Each day for ten days, at 0:00 UTC, you will randomly be given either 10, 20, 30, or 100 Prayers on a specially marked pseudo-banner. This banner shares the same Friend and Story Card selections as the Friend and Story Card Ritual pools, and you can check exactly which Friends and Story Cards you can score via the details button ingame. The chance to get a Friend or a Story Card of any given rarity is exactly the same as any normal banner.
You must use the Prayers by 0:00 UTC the next day; if you do not, they will vanish. The prayers will not roll over or stack for the next day. Thus, to maximize your rolls, login and roll every single day! It's that simple!
These Prayers are only usable on the Kourindou Roulette pseudo-banner, and do not give you exchange points on any other banner. There is no other way to perform Prayers on this pseudo-banner.
If you do not get a 100 Prayer day on the first nine days, you will be guaranteed 100 Prayers on the tenth and final day. Otherwise, if you get a 100 Prayer day at least once in those first nine days, you are not guaranteed a 100 Prayer on the final day. Like the other nine days, you must use this final Prayer day, 100 or otherwise, by 0:00 UTC the following day or you will lose the Prayers.
About Rinnosuke
As for Rinnosuke himself… well, he’s kind of a dork. A half-human half-youkai, he owns the antique shop, <strong>Kourindou</strong>, on the outskirts of the Forest of Magic. A calm and collected fellow, and a bit of a know-it-all, he has the ability to determine the name and purpose of any object made by a human—though thanks to his lack of a modern education, he can draw some rather strange conclusions, such as judging a Nintendo Gameboy to be a doomsday device. If you let him ramble on too long he can keep you for hours with his explanations. He’s on friendly terms with Marisa Kirisame (who may or may not have pulled some strings to score you some free Prayers), and is the creator of the Mini-Hakkero, the portable furnace that Marisa carries around and enables her to fire off her Master Spark. Like Marisa he’s also a major hoarder, though he’ll never admit it, meaning he rarely sells his wares. He’s even managed to con Marisa out of the <strong>Kusanagi no Tsurugi</strong> which, for some reason, was just laying about her house. Perhaps that’s why he has so many Seal Cubes on hand for all those Prayers…
