Gakumas Reroll Guide: Should You, What Spark Is, and What to Aim For

Quick answer

Rerolling means repeatedly restarting on a fresh account to get a good start before you commit. In Gakumas, gacha pulls P-idols and support cards, with SSR the rarest. The notable system is Spark (pity/exchange): accumulate enough pulls and you get to exchange for a limited P-idol you want. The community often cites around 200 pulls for Spark, but that's a community label — the exact number, SSR rate and specific jewel cost need official verification, so don't treat 200 as a hard figure. When starting out, aim for a P-idol that fits the style you enjoy rather than chasing "the strongest".

What Rerolling Is, and Whether to Bother

Rerolling is creating and restarting accounts repeatedly to "fish" for a satisfying start from your early free pulls, before you pour time into one account. It costs effort and time, so weigh it: if you'd rather start now and build up gradually, you can skip rerolling. If you want a solid long-term foundation, rerolling for a good starter P-idol is reasonable. There's no one right answer — it depends on how much you want to optimise.

What Gacha Pulls

Gakumas gacha yields two main things: P-idols (the units you produce, locked to a plan) and support cards (which bring cards and effects into your produce runs). SSR is the rarest rarity. Because a P-idol decides the plan and playstyle for the whole run, reroll goals usually center on a specific P-idol rather than hoarding many small pulls. The P-idol library lets you see the full roster and who runs which plan before deciding who to aim for.

Spark: Pity to Claim a P-idol

Spark is a pity system: each pull earns you a little pity, and once it's full you exchange for a limited P-idol you want — meaning no matter how unlucky you are, enough pulls guarantees that unit. The community commonly cites a threshold of around 200 pulls. That 200 figure, the SSR rate and specific jewel costs all need official verification and may differ per banner, so treat 200 as a community estimate, not a settled number. Before each banner, check that banner's actual Spark conditions.

What to Aim For When Rerolling

  • Aim for a P-idol that fits the style you enjoy — Sense for bursts, Logic for steadiness, Anomaly for the unusual. A P-idol shapes the whole run, so it's the most important choice.
  • Check the tier list instead of chasing rumours. Our P-idol tier list has two modes: Signature power (108 SSR P-idols ranked by the total power of their signature set, computed with the contest formula — a number anyone can recheck) and Community rating (59 P-idols scored by Japanese community voting, with the source and date shown). Community ratings shift between versions, and signature power is a static number that does not capture live play perfectly — read both before committing.
  • Track your progress toward Spark with the gacha tool so you know how far you are from the threshold.

Frequently asked questions

Does Spark take exactly 200 pulls?

The ~200 figure is a community label, not a verified official number, and it may vary by banner. Check the specific Spark conditions of the banner you plan to pull on before doing your math.

What's the SSR rate?

SSR is the rarest rarity. Per the in-game rate table, compiled from Japanese community sources: SSR 5%, SR 17%, PR 78% — always reconfirm the table on the banner you are pulling, since banners can differ.

Is rerolling mandatory?

No. Rerolling gives a stronger start but costs time. You can absolutely just start and build up; choose based on how much you want to optimise.

Which P-idol should I reroll for?

One that fits the style you enjoy, since it locks your plan and shapes the whole produce run. To compare properly, open the P-idol tier list: the Signature power mode (108 SSR P-idols, computed with the contest formula) and the Community rating mode (59 P-idols, from Japanese community sources). Don't chase "strongest" rumours — community ratings shift between versions.
