Blue Archive's battle system is nearly fully automatic, so the main aspect of the game, unlike something like Genshin Impact, is collecting characters. Most of which have very revealing charadesigns, which contributed to the game's popularity. And Kasuga Tsubaki is one of the most popular characters since the game's release in early 2021, and one of the firsts to get a figure following Sorasaki Hina.
