The Ichi-Daime

Overview

The Ichi-daime is the first limited character banner of Version 1.0 and the first character banner ever to run on the global servers of Neverness to Everness. The featured character is Nanally, an S-Class Anima main DPS who joins the player's roster as the headline pull of the launch window.

The banner runs for two weeks from April 29, 2026 through May 13, 2026 at 05:59:59 UTC+8, overlapping fully with the launch login event and the Anomaly Hunter's Journey milestone track. Like every limited banner in NTE, The Ichi-daime uses the Scarborough Fair board format and the No 50/50 System: every S-Class pulled from the banner is guaranteed to be Nanally.

Banner Details

Featured Character

Nanally is an S-Class Anima character who anchors most launch-roster team compositions as the on-field main DPS. She is a member of the Coluccis Family and her first official title is the launch banner's namesake; in Japanese, the term refers to the first generation of a lineage. Her core mechanic is an automatic Anima follow-up attack: whenever any teammate lands a hit, Nanally triggers an off-field Anima strike with no input required.

Combined with her on-field claw combos and her Underboss summon ultimate, Nanally has the highest sustained team DPS in the launch roster. Nanally also has electromagnetic mobility tied to her Colucci Howling Technique. The skill lets her stick to walls and ceilings during exploration, traversing tilted surfaces that other characters cannot. The mobility doubles as out-of-combat utility for collectible runs and certain platforming sequences.

Reward Tier Breakdown

The Ichi-daime layers four overlapping reward tracks on top of each other: the character pity track (Nanally as the S-Class drop), the cosmetic milestone counter (50, 120, 200 pulls), the random board-tile cosmetic drops (~0.33% per tile), and the secondary banner currency rewards (Annulith and ascension materials at fixed pull intervals). The breakdown below summarises each tier:

Closing window: the banner ends in four days, on May 13, 2026 at 05:59:59 UTC+8. Players still pursuing pity should plan around the daily reset and the final-week login bundle to maximize Solid Dice income before close. Pity left on the counter when the banner ends carries forward to the Misty Tipsy Style Phase 2 banner that replaces it after a brief maintenance window the same day.

Banner Timer Breakdown

The 14-day banner window divides into three practical phases for most active players. The breakdown below is calibrated against the standard launch reward schedule (login bonuses, daily activities, weekly resets) and the Anomaly Hunter's Journey track:

Players who consistently complete daily activities and the launch login event should reach 80 to 110 Solid Dice over the full 14-day window. Combined with pre-registration grants and the launch-celebration giveaway, most active accounts can reach 90-pull hard pity comfortably without spending real money.

Cosmetic Milestones

The Ichi-daime carries the standard limited-banner cosmetic milestone counter on top of the character pity track. The cosmetics are themed to Nanally's Anomaly Hunter and Coluccis Family identities.

The cosmetic milestone counter is independent of the 70/90 pity track and is retained for The Ichi-daime specifically across reruns. Cosmetic items can also drop from board tiles before reaching the milestone threshold; the base drop rate is roughly 0.33% per applicable tile.

Pull Strategy

Nanally is the safer general pick of the two Version 1.0 limited characters because her follow-up attacks scale with any teammate composition. Free-to-play players targeting both Phase 1 and Phase 2 limited characters should plan around hitting roughly 90 pulls per banner, since pity carries over but a hard-pity ceiling on each is the worst-case requirement for the no-50/50 guarantee.

• Save Solid Dice accumulated through pre-registration, the launch login event, and the Anomaly Hunter's Journey track. Combined with the launch redeem codes, most active players reach 90+ pulls within the first two weeks.

• Finish the Standard Banner's free S-Rank Selector before pulling on The Ichi-daime if you have not yet hit 50 pulls on the standard board. Pre-registration grants enough Fabricated Dice to cross the 50-pull threshold without spending money.

• Pity carries over to Misty Tipsy Style. A player who reaches 70 pulls on Nanally without an S-Class drop carries elevated S-Class probability into Hotori's banner when it goes live.

• Pull on the Arc banner only after securing Nanally. Her signature Arc is featured on the Arc Research Program alongside The Ichi-daime; pulling for the Arc before owning the character leaves the weapon without an optimal user.

• Hit 200 pulls for The Popular Kid before considering the cosmetic shop. Players within reach of the 200-pull milestone save 1,680 to 2,480 Riftcrystals by completing the milestone instead of buying the outfit directly.

Tips

• Pull Nanally first; build her Arc afterward. Equip her signature Arc once obtained for the highest sustained DPS scaling.

• Use the Anima follow-up mechanic by pairing Nanally with high-tempo teammates whose attacks land in quick succession.

• Equip The Popular Kid outfit if available. The skin alters her visual skill effects and pairs aesthetically with the launch-window glider and vehicle liveries.

• Save the launch redeem codes (NTENANALLYGO, NTE0429) for the moment server open lets you redeem them. The combined Annulith yield converts to extra Solid Dice toward Nanally's pity.

• Plan ascension materials alongside pulls. Pulling Nanally without her ascension materials leaves her capped at base level. The banner drops some ascension materials, but supplementary farming on the boss circuit is usually needed.
