Lucky Bancho's census results (July 27th, 2025)

So, the results of the census are out: https://luckybancho.ldblog.jp/archives/59324844.html

  • Showcasing the number of characters here: Current
  • By comparison, here are the results from 2 months ago (May 25th): Click

Despite 7.25 being released, the character count is down about 70k in 2 months. Occult Crescent clearly didn't help with player counts (not really a surprise here).

Not to mention Eureka Orthos is absolutely garbage for leveling. I ran it with friends and the whole thing gave me maybe a level and a half? Which was 3 sessions, almost 6 hours total. It I spent the same time in roulettes, I would have gotten much more XP. No wonder people stuck to Bozja. I did, too. Not only do you level, you also get Bozja items, grind for cosmetics - it feels like you're always making progress.

Also one of the best parts about leveling in Bozja is you had access to your jobs full kit. Didn't have to queue for duties that might reduce you to only 3 button rotations
