Despite the video appearing fully in Japanese, this crossover event is coming to the English version of the game. The following banner confirmed the collaboration will be coming to global.

Currently, the collaboration will go live on 23rd March until 20th April 2021, based on JST. Three new event characters will be recruitable. They are:

Other characters from the anime will also appear with in-game models, such as Malty and the other three Cardinal Heroes. In addition, Glass seems to be a boss that players can challenge in this crossover.
