Quick Reroll Reference Sheet
Best Pulls Are Sagan and Kikoru
The best reroll targets in Kaiju No. 8 are Kikoru (Waterside Respite) and Sagan (The Resurgent Commander), who are currently featured on the Pickup banner. Kikoru is a Support who provides powerful DMG buffs and SP recovery, while Sagan excels at supporting characters with Extra Attacks. Both are excellent limited characters that are well worth rerolling for.
Other Strong Characters Are Hard to Get
Rin Shinonome (Cross-Forged Refinement) and Aoi Kaguragi (Fruits of Diligence) are among the best characters, but their drop rates are only 0.100% in the Sagan Gacha and 0.095% in the Kikoru Gacha, making them very difficult to target through rerolling. While they are top-tier characters, their exclusive weapons are also difficult to obtain, making it harder to unlock their full potential. For that reason, they are placed one tier lower for reroll recommendations.
| Note! | Among the characters listed above, Rin Shinonome (Cross-Forged Refinement) is only available from the Kikoru Pickup Gacha and cannot be obtained from the Sagan Gacha, so keep that in mind. |

Best Permanent Gacha Pick Is Gen
The Gacha Tickets you get at the start are only usable in THE GAME Gacha. If you're rerolling there, we recommend targeting Narumi, who offers strong Attacker performance.
