I can't think of a name for this.

There is no such thing as Gacha Heat.

There is no such thing as Gacha Life.

Where did Gacha characters come from, originally?

And, before you ask, no, I'm not interested in joining that 'community'. I'm just doing research.

...Ahem, sorry...

I meant to say we're doing research.
