Without the gacha, Umamusume stays at #12 — the spike is the banner.

This Week's Standout Titles
JUMP全明星亂鬥 launched June 24 with nine Shonen Jump IPs and a limited skin exchange event, lifting rank from #93 to #73 — modest for a major IP crossover.
Shadowverse: Worlds Beyond vaulted 73 spots to #6 on June 30, fueled by a Sousou no Frieren collab with login bonuses and a U-22 Championship esports campaign.
Umamusume Pretty Derby hit #1 on June 30 (from #12) with an estimated 99% revenue spike, driven by the Twinkle Collection gacha and an SSR Speed Gacha for paid jewels.
Data Movement Analysis
Ensemble Stars!! Music inched up 11 spots to #52, sustained by birthday campaigns and a Project Sekai collab — steady, not explosive.
Nyanko Great War climbed 44 positions to #38 on the Devil's June Bride event and a Fate/stay night collab announcement — two events, one lift.
Tokyo Debunker rose 11 spots to #88 on a new limited gacha and Nightmare Mission event — small content, small move.
Japan's market: Strategy holds 28% share but revenue fell 24.9% WoW — the genre is dominant but not growing.
Korea's market: Strategy at 34.4% share saw a sharp 44.7% WoW revenue drop — high concentration, high volatility.
What to Watch Next Week
賽馬娘Pretty Derby's Twinkle Collection gacha ends soon; watch for post-event revenue drop and whether it holds top 10.
Brawl Stars sits at #8 in TW iOS; a new season or balance patch could push it higher or let it slip.
Shadowverse: Worlds Beyond at #10 in TW iOS may climb further if the Frieren collab extends or new card packs drop.
Editor's Note
2/7 forecasts hit · Next week: post-gacha hangover for Umamusume and Shadowverse. Watch if any JP title can sustain momentum without a new event.
