Should You Pull Hotori's Banner?
| Pickup Character | Banner Period |
|---|---|
 Hotori | May 13 - Jun 03, 2026 at 5:59 AM (UTC+8) |
Pull If You Need Strong Support
Hotori is a Cosmos sub-DPS and has a skill called time stop and her ability to record and unleash allies' skills, the stronger your allies are, the more you can bring out Hotori's full potential. Hotori is recommended for players who have well-developed characters and are tackling content that requires time manipulation.
| Note | Her rating will increase even further if limited characters with good synergy with her are released in the future. |

Also Recommended if You Have Jiuyuan
Her Attribute is the same as Zero (Appraiser), so try to pair her with Mint or Jiuyuan. She is a character whose strengths can't be fully utilized if you build a team haphazardly without understanding the Esper Cycle mechanic. If you are a beginner, start by pairing her with Anima Attribute characters.
Time Stop Effect
Using Hotori's Ultimate Rail activates a time-stop effect that freezes the challenge clock, giving you extra time to clear difficult stages. This allows you to secure a longer combat time than other teams in modes like Pink Paws Heist and Beyond the Rails. This makes her a powerful character for content that requires grinding.

Skills that improve
Awakening Stabilizes Time Stop DMG
With higher Awakening levels, Hotori can simultaneously benefit from effects such as increased DMG during Time Stop and rapid energy recovery after using a Redirect Skill. This significantly improves her energy efficiency, allowing her to deal consistent damage during Time Stop more reliably.
Signature Arc Increases DMG Output
Hotori's Signature Arc provides effects that significantly increase her DMG output. We recommend obtaining it if you want to maximize Hotori's DPS. Since it greatly boosts CRIT DMG, players who equip her signature weapon should prioritize farming Drive Consoles that increase CRIT Rate.
