Unable to open the app

It said “Maintenance in progress. Closing the app.” Unable to enter the game. Please solve this problem as soon as possible!!!

Beautiful characters

I love Takashi Hoshino😘

see below

keeps crashing even on my data easier to respond to me than do something about it ( in my opinion) coming over to protest - soon with ticket & passport to tell me in person - see you soon if you want ?

Banned in Belgium and Germany

So annoying that I can’t even play it.
Reason being there’s a lootbox law in belgium so you can’t gamba.

BA’s devs can’t even fix something so small.
Even though I can play WuWa, ZZZ, NTE, Genshin etc just fine.
