Punishing: Gray Raven x Date A Live V Collaboration Guide: Kurumi, Rewards & Free Pulls

The Punishing: Gray Raven × Date A Live V collaboration starts on September 29, 2026, following the launch of the Anchored in Faith version on September 24. The crossover brings Kurumi Tokisaki, a limited collaboration R&D event, free pulls, login rewards, and a special gift code.

This guide covers the PGR x Date A Live V date, complete rewards, Kurumi's acquisition method, banner cost, free R&D resources, and what to prepare before the collaboration.

▍PGR x Date A Live V Date

The collaboration arrives shortly after the new version goes live.

The Date A Live V crossover is a limited-time collaboration, with Kurumi Tokisaki as its main playable character.

▍PGR x Date A Live V Rewards

The collaboration provides several free resources in addition to Kurumi and her extra-copy rewards.

While the collaboration comes with free R&D pulls, login rewards, and other limited rewards, Kurumi Tokisaki is the main highlight of the collaboration. She is a Dark Attacker and can only be obtained through the limited Collab Character R&D Event.

▍How to Get Kurumi and Use the Collaboration Banner

1. How to Get Kurumi and Extra Copies?

Kurumi has a special extra-copy mechanic:

1. Get Kurumi for the first time → claim 1 additional copy.
2. Get Kurumi for the second time → claim another 1 additional copy.
3. Maximum bonus → 2 additional copies.

This gives players an additional way to build Kurumi after obtaining her from the limited collaboration banner.

2. How Much Does the Kurumi Banner Cost?

The collaboration Character R&D features a 30% discount on 10-pulls.

The discounted 1,750-ticket price applies to the collaboration Character R&D. The 30% discount does not apply to the collaboration Weapon R&D. Collaboration pity also does not carry over to future banners, so players should plan their resources specifically for this event.

3. How Many Free R&D Pulls Can You Get?

The collaboration login event provides:

• 24 Character R&D pulls
• 14 Weapon R&D pulls
• 1,000 Limited R&D Tickets

A good approach is to claim these resources before spending additional premium currency. If Kurumi is your priority, use the free Character R&D resources first and then calculate how many additional pulls you still need.

Players who need more Rainbow Cards can use TOPUPlive's Punishing: Gray Raven top-up, which currently offers up to 26% OFF on listed Rainbow Card packages.

▍What Is New in the Anchored in Faith Update?

The Date A Live V collaboration is only part of the September update. Anchored in Faith also adds a new story chapter, a free S-Rank character, new challenges, and other content.

1. Free S-Rank Adelyde: Anabasis

Adelyde: Anabasis is a free S-Rank character available for a limited time through Journal of Promise.

The Service Shop also includes:

• Inver-Shard – Anabasis ×50
• 6★ Weapon – Unforsaken Beacon
• Exclusive CUB – Kelpie
• Additional upgrade materials

2. New Story and Gameplay Content

The version also introduces:

• Anchored in Faith — new story chapter
• Circuit Calculus — mini-game
• Overclock Simulation — boss challenge
• Shrouded Requiem — new content
• Rusalka — new boss
• Weapon Harmony II: Liv – Limpidity
• New character coatings

Quality-of-life improvements include increased Memory storage, Dormitory Base 5, and Character Quick Upgrade.

▍What Should You Prepare Before September 29?

If Kurumi is your main target, resource planning is more important because the collaboration pity does not carry over.

1. Save Black Cards for the Collaboration

Avoid spending Black Cards on unrelated banners if you plan to pull for Kurumi. The collaboration uses special R&D resources, and Black Cards can be converted into the required collaboration currency. Saving them until the event begins gives you more flexibility once the free resources have been claimed.

2. Do Not Forget the Weapon Banner Difference

The character banner's 30% 10-pull discount does not apply to the collaboration weapon banner. If your priority is Kurumi herself, allocate your resources accordingly instead of assuming the same discount applies to weapons.

3. Use Free R&D Resources First

Before buying or converting additional resources:

1. Log in and claim the collaboration rewards.
2. Redeem PUNISHING0924.
3. Use the free Character R&D resources.
4. Check your remaining pull requirements.
5. Spend additional Black Cards or Rainbow Cards only if necessary.

This approach helps avoid spending more premium currency than needed. If you still need more, TOPUPlive currently lists Punishing: Gray Raven Rainbow Cards at up to 26% OFF.
