Samurai Spirits Collab – 2nd run!
It’s Sho-time! Samurai Spirits (NA: Samurai Shodown) collab returns with new Pixel and Reincarnation evolutions!
Samurai Spirits
First released in 1993, Samurai Spirits (侍魂, NA: Samurai Shodown) is, as you may expect, a sword fighting game from SNK Cooperation! The collab first arrived in PAD late 2019, and many dreamed of its return! [ SNK Official site (JP) / (NA) ]
During the last run (in 2019) there was a DLC on PAD-themed costumes, and I’m just keeping it here for laughs/traumatizing everyone. 😀
Rare gacha lineup
6 Magic Stones per roll. One free roll in mail.
All cards are linked to PDX database, newer cards may not be immediately available. You can also see New Cards section below for skill translations. All Japanese names listed are in the order of first name, followed by last name. For example, Yashamaru is the first name, Kurama is the last name.

Genjuro looking insane
A lot of good upgrades. Even the 5 star pixels are useful for those 5 star and below dungeons. Shiki would’ve been useful for those that didn’t have GungHo Lucy for that exploration dungeon. One thing I’m disappointed in is that Rimururu didn’t get a skill charge in her AS. Lol. That would make my day with my dumb sense of humor. Have multiple on a team and she would never shut up with her voice awakening. Best used on 3p. :p
In case y’all see this, the NA occurrence is still missing from this post (where it says event happened on NA server) as well as the NA occurrence date (6/28/2021).
Onion has a lot on his plate already so please don’t rush him to update on NA side. Thanks.
