Since I’ve been inspired by the awesome stories of other characters, and Kirin was my first god (got her when she first came out), I wanted to dedicate something…
(Part 1 because not enough space :c)
It was a glorious day when the maidens arrived through the Eastern Gate of the Sun, their beauty and skill knocking everyone off their feet into their eggs. “Make me proud!” Fagan cried, proud of his five darlings, finally fully-trained in paradise, ready to face the real world. There were high hopes, for sure, and they far exceeded it; the fierce yet laid-back eastern dragon; the elegant, smoldering southern phoenix; the quiet, stealth western tiger; the talented, precocious northern tortoise; all found themselves in the spotlights among gods, among leaders, in the starlit embrace of Heaven.
But Kirin was special. Fagan had entrusted her to pass down a special technique. A mixture of grace and strength, the boisterous dance. She was given the chance to lead, and only lead, and do so not only powerfully, but also passionately, also beautifully. Look at that! So graceful! How smooth, how lithe, how simple it must be for her! A talent unmatched, she thought she was preordained to be the top. She would tower beyond even the heavens, beyond the king and queen of gods, beyond the world. And for a time, she did.
Tears would sometimes flow from her eyes now. “Look at this,” Kirin would sigh. Heaven was empty. The once laden with ambrosia cups were now filled with air. The marble columns and oriental palaces still stood, Western pantheons and art among Eastern gardens and golden shrines, but their alabaster and red did not reflect the power of the gods, for they were no longer worshipped. In fact, the ones who had left were no longer even gods; now “awoken,” they sought not peace, but power – not order, but fame. More and more left, and those that remained barely made an echo in those once reverent halls. The jealous queen Hera had left for frivolous holidays; the king was nowhere to be found.
It began with the age of the Sonias. Was it her dragon? Her charm? Regardless, she embodied the antithesis of the gods. “To those forsaken by Gods, cast out to the ends of the Earth; I shall lead you to prosperity!” A Devil, she seduced, bound, and stole piece by piece the glamor of Heaven. Yet those gods did nothing, only guarded their precious thrones. Even when the dragon girl in red stole away Haku into her tribe, Kirin stood idly by. “She’ll come back.” Rows? What’s that? There’s little point. After all, it’s the leader skill that counts. There’s no way those strange tama creatures could shift the balance of power.
Even when the world became crowded with them. The devils, attackers, the rows of fire, the darkness, as Heaven refused to intervene in the spectacle. “We’re gods, after all. Nothing can topple us.” They refused to change; remained by their current skills, tossing but a cursory glance at those strange egg creatures. Not even one asked how so many of those tama creatures got there. “It doesn’t matter to me,” Kirin said. “I’m queen; nothing can touch me!”
“But why did they keep leaving?” Kirin was like a spectator, watching her sisters eventually slide away, the gods slowly seep from the heavens like trickling rain. “Fine, I’ll try a few. Make myself tougher, too.” A few shinier orbs, and feet to boot. But it was still the skill that mattered. And she would still be queen.
But like arrows did the new awokens came. Kill two monsters with one skill, and multiples of them. What a monstrosity! Impurity! First were the two brothers, always a bother, a nuisance… and now even a rival. There was the creator goddess of shadow, calmly approaching the spotlight. But the worst was her. The essence of power, of creation, destruction, of divinity. Through the same Eastern Gate Kali strutted in with the sunrise, she was to rule. “I will not stand for idleness; we must stand for power! And I, the new queen, will rule and bring back glory!” The alluring flowers, intoxicating, aromatic, she promised to make the gods blossom once more. In comparison, Kirin found herself a weed. She was Kirin, but Kali was more. And she was “special”. Kirin was pure and she was not; yet soon Kirin found herself fallen from Heaven, much like the fall of Lucifer. So she ran from the cavernous halls of light, the blank expressions of sculptures, to the edges of the cloud-laced Heaven.
That is one f***ed up evolution tree
Well, now it's feasable to play a full, no-dupe Sakuya team just for the lulz.
2389: (L/B) Awoken Sakuya
751: (L) Base Sakuya
752: (L) KoA Sakuya
1218: (L/L) Ult Sakuya
1783: (L/F) Christmas Sakuya
2077: (L/G) GGSK Sakuya
Assuming all max level and no +s, That's a total of:
18,529 HP
8201 base ATK
2534 RCU
6 light orb enhance
1 enhanced fire orb
100% Jammer resist
100% Blind resist
100% Skill-bind resist
4 Skill Boosts
4 Time Extends
20% Poison resist
1 Bind recover (on an unbindable card)
And 1 TPA on both leads.
Completely lacking in orb changers and other utility skills (aside from this one's bind clear)
but, completely resistant to poison and jammer orbs (aside from instances where they come as skyfall)
Features include a potential x60 ATK and enough gravity to take UA's Kali from 30mil to 7.87 mil.
You could also use Cross Sakuya, but honestly, why would you?
Sakuya and her ginormous Q-tip of doom!
I like how feeding an eight-star monster to a six-star one results in a seven-star. Well balanced.
Now that she's Awoken, her art should just be a giant foot.

I read somewhere else that described her weapon as "Fagan's Balls" and choked on my drink.
Lord though, this Awoken is expensive as getting one of the MP dragons evo'ed. 8 jewels, and that's not even considering the two wasted jewels for those that went for now obsolete uuevo form. I work on this once the next event has jewel invades again.
While her 100x multiplier potential is nice, I think going with TPA subs like Kali, Athena, and Ilya (The light knight invade in descend dungeons in JP) and aiming for 6-8 combos is the most optimal way to go if you can't 9 or 10 combo consistently like I know I can't. You can still get very similar damage with the 36/49/64x multiplier with TPAs and skyfalls will occasionally help you out in pushing for that 81/100x multipler which becomes truly insane with the augment from TPAs.
please release this thing quicker
whenever someone calls her "Kirin", someone gets a fruit dragon.

You would've thought that they had given Sakuya 3 tpas, 4 skill boosts, and an active that reduced enemy HP by 45% with all the whining that was going on. All they did was slap on a situational 3-turn bind recovery to her still situational 20% gravity skill and make her most redundant awakenings more relevant to her new playstyle. The only thing that felt even remotely unbalanced was the bonus multiplier at 5+ combos to which GungHo decided to take the Anubis route instead. Overall, Awoken Sakuya still remains kirin-esque and is well worth the evolution materials now.
Well, I'm absolutely ready for this. Her typing dragon/healer is rare and the stats are super well balanced. She has amazing awakenings, combined with the same leader: she is unbindable and can unbind other characters of 6 turns with one row of heal, 40% of skill block resist & jammers resist & dark world resist , 2 skill boosts, one extra second of moving time. Her active skill 20% HP gravity every use on current HP. This evo practically removes the need for Lmeta and the blue color unless you run Sun Quan. The leaderskill is insane compared to her other evolutions. Without the need for using active skills, you could do 25x at 4 matches, 36x at 6 combos, 49x at 7 combos, 64x at 8, 81x at 9 and 100x at 10 combos; it's easier to remember as the combo squared. e.g. 7x7=49. So, not only do you have a low cd gravity, it removes binds and your damage output can vary for you in case you fight monster with damage absorbs like x>200k or bosses with like 4mil hp. I think she's well rounded as a light leader, I would make subs 2x Kali, Sun quan and Light Valk. You could probably use the new Awoken Susano or Thor or Indra. I'm waiting to see Indra get his new Awoken Evo. I use him despite not having skill ups, it's so helpful to have if you can get it up by the time you hit hard waves/boss. P.S. I forgot to mention Awoken Apollo or using Verche/Reincarnation of Athena, Saori to keep heart orbs for the unbindings or just to heal up. P.S. I like running her with Elia, 2x Kali and Awoken Susano.

Did anyone else notice that the chibi forms of these guys are the same attributes as their Awoken forms? :D I know I did.
This is pretty much the perfect card in PAD right now. Absolutely flawless.
The evo from KoA Sakuya to this is really just Fagan donating sakuya a foot (not even two lol) and those 2 light jewels growing into some massive sakuya balls.
So beautiful.
Dang her bench must be off the charts
I've been playing for almost 1,000 days. I've wanted one since I started playing. Finally got it and I'm so excited!
She looks similar to L/B Apollo!
From best monster in the game to a less than mediocre god. Then she got a new evo and was still less than mediocre. Then she got ANOTHER evo and now she's the best monster in the game. I rolled her not too long ago. I love this game
How about this team:
Awoken Sakuya
Kali
Kali
SDG Sun Quan/Echidna
LMeta/Awoken Venus/Valk
Awoken Sakuya
Any suggestions?
Just 'cause I really can't let go of my hypermaxed Awoken Shiva, I thought of building a Fire-based Awoken Sakuya team. I mean, a lot of people are doing Dark-based Awoken Sakuya teams, so why not try Fire out?
• Awoken Sakuya
• Awoken Shiva - because Awoken Shiva
• Dino Rider - Safe orb changer that covers Wood (Ultimate Set SHOULD be here, but I don't have him)
• Squall - Low cooldown Heartbreaker + Haste that has a nice TPA and a much needed Time Extend
• D.Kali - THE utility sub
As mentioned by Valk, it may be more optimal to match TPAs and getting 6 to 8 combos, as compared to matching three, and comboing 9 and above. I, myself, even have trouble getting up to 7 sometimes (no shame, I kinda suck even after almost two years of playing).
I want to try using Squall since I just rolled him. He seems like a very decent Heartbreaker with a nice Haste, but with above average stats. If he isn't working for this team, or if you're confident enough to switch D.Kali out, there are other useful Fire subs such as:
• Awoken Freyr for Bursting and more TPA
• Awoken Minerva for another super quick orb change (but no TPA)
• Red Valk for a quicker Heartbreaker, but no Haste
• Misato for a quick orb change and Haste
• Ultimate Kenshiro, or Vegito for boss floors and stat stick
• Valen for defense, but mediocre everything else

Two sets of baby ~lits, check.
Fagan, Zhou Yu, 2x Light Jewels, and Blue Jewel, check.
4x Shynpy, check.
And now, we wait.
The same swag style as urd ;)
i guess my kali finally got some competition
Wow her basic form has been sitting in my box. Didn't look at this card when released. I clearly need to focus my efforts onto Hypermaxing her.
Sakuya was my first "Major" lead. I rolled her 1st month and even though I knew nothing I knew she was something. Anyway thanks to co-op and a good person I finally got the missing piece to awaken her. The summer of 2016 I saw an explosion of new meta (power creep) that out classed half my box lol so I'm probably late for class but I am proud she's finally awoken. The lesson here is use co-op! If you are a new player find a vet that's kind and can help you before that brand new X100 monster you rolled last week gets out classed by a new X200 lmao no but really co-op is the real real.
Finally some justice has been done! The art for Sakuya is just beautiful as max murai said on the stream she does look like a ballerina dancer , sure she is op but I'd rather have an easy time running though dungeons than struggling and wasting stamina. With the right subs you can get her to reach 100x which is really cool. I am glad she has been my first god. And thankgoodness for showing off the legs.
Edit: Nevermind looks like they did tone her LS down. She seems pretty balanced.

I have one thing to say. Kirin has tamed the one true doge.
Sakuya is a great leader that works wonders on hard dungeons I've been having trouble clearing with a LKali team.
Last edited by good deal 3 years ago ( 9.2.1 )
Should've changed her active to "Really Boisterous Dance: Reduce all enemy's HP by 100%". Max cooldown 1 turn, min cooldown 1 turn. That's what Japan actually wants.
In all, this card needs
1 fire jewel
2 water jewels
1 wood jewel
4 light jewels!!
but its hella worth :)
As the only healer with Gravity, she's going to make a great sub for Awoken Amaterasu.
She's here! Too bad I don't have Zhou Yu :(
She's giving the #onetruegod a run for his money.
First of sakuya's form that actually makes her look pretty.
Her 5* and 6* forms didn't have feet.
Her uevo form has a weird kind of gaze.
Her uuevo form makes her look like a giraffe.
Omg, I expected a nice stat boost and leader skill boost, but now they made her active skill more useful while lowering the cd? This means Light metatron is no longer needed! This is now my new favourite card. Sorry Lkali, at least you will be my favourite sub :/

A archetypal awoken Sakuya team is
Sakuya
Light Kali
Light Kali
Sun Quan
Flex (a guy with time extends)
Awoken Sakuya.
I don't have Sun Quan, and I don't know who to replace him with. Any options?
I have awoken Isis, arcline and dark Kali. Are there any farmable subs. Also what's a good flex slot time extend stick?
Edit
The perfected team...
Awoken Sakuya
Light Kali
Light Kali
Awoken Tsukuyomi
Dark Kali
Awoken Sakuya
9 skill Boosts, Crap load of bind recovery, 3 full board changes and one yomi for the finale where you have to wreck bosses. not to mention 100% Sx resist and 9 TIME EXTENDS. NINE. that's like 4.5 extra seconds. Combined with yomi active, your board time is 13.5 seconds to do all your matches. I'm almost finished with the team, just need enough cost to put on dark Kali. for now, i'm settling with sumire.

She looks like she's about ready to roast some marshmallows.
I was hoping for triple ult SSJ3 Sakuya.
I do really prefer this art over her previous one (Green Gleaming Star Kirin, Sakuya). Like one already commented before; she looks like a ballerina. Very elegant and gracious.
HUGE props to the artist that drew all these forms, I haven't seen one of this monster yet that I couldn't stare and say "omg, gorgeous" toward. I like all of them, but of course, I don't have ANY of her forms. *shrugs* I lack the power + stones to get her anyway, tbh.
there are two gods who, together, will draw despair to even this legendary sakuya with her formidable leader skill:
Awoken Sopdet and the SKYFALL GOD.
(although technically one can double gravity then 4 combo to one-shot Sopedet, that's just risky)
Just looking for a confirmation: If I double reverse ultimate evolve my GGS Kirin into KoA Sakuya and then evolve her into Awoken Sakuya, I will keep my awakenings right?
It's this evo worth un ult ult my GGS Sakuya?
on an ocd level, it kinda bugs me that she's the only awoken god to have 9 awoken skills, but on a hype level it doesn't bug me at all
I have a question, I'm a relatively new player (rank 80 been playing for about 2 months) and I've just evoed my kirin to kirin of the aurora. because of special PAL events I basically have all the materials for KotSG and then GGSK (I'd have to buy a green jewel somehow probably). I can activate kirin most of the time now, but my team is pretty sucky (I have flame winged cyberbeast markab, SS rinoa, mid green ninja and verche, the balanced one not the god). should I just evo my kirin to ggsk or should I hold out and wait until I'm good enough to run the dungeons for the materials for awoken sakuya - how hard is it to get them?
So i have this amazing mister of a girl. I am looking for more friends to have her so i can clear more challenging dungeons. I am always on every day. Please add my id. If she is your lead, thank you
Decided to try running Threedia for the first time since Dragon Challenge is around now. Had never ran him before out of fear since he is tough and losing 88 stamina is an absolute pain. Went in with Awoken Sakuya and absolutely steamrolled through the dungeon all while hearing "Reduce All Creation to Ash."
Quick question, if i match dark orbs too, along with fire, water, light and earth, will the dark attack also be multiplied?
Awoken Sakuya Healer team?
Awoken Sakuya leader and friend leader
Awoken Venus
L.Kali
Armored Blue Blade Knight, Arcline
L.Valkyrie
Man, getting Sakuya to this is impossible for new players, I feel like I have a long way to go.
Since I don't have a Sakuya yet, I've been running an oddball A. Horus team with friend A. Sakuya's and been doing quite well
A. Horus
D. Kali
L. Kali
A. Isis
Durga
A. Sakuya
This gives me many options for damage output, from 4x upto 135x with Durga skill.
100% skill bind
2 unbinders
7 Time ext.
All Sakuya colors unbindable
1 damage reduction
lots of TPA's
Last edited by Omegas 3 years ago ( 8.4.1 )
I'm only on Creek of Neleus in terms of Technical Dungeons, but I'm one Blue Keeper away from getting her (edit: got her), since I beat The Ultimate Dragon Rush for Fagan. I want to beat Paradise of the Holy Beasts for the first time with an Awoken Sakuya team just to be a troll.
Anyways, about that team, it's:
Awoken Sakuya
L/B Apollo
Awoken Amaterasu
LKali
LKali
Awoken Sakuya
Is it any good? Everyone has at least one TPA, Amaterasu's max skilled for the consistent Bind Clear, and the team is fully Skill Bind Resistant. I also have an Elia, but not enough cost to use her.
Last edited by WorldSend 3 years ago ( 8.4.1 )
Why do you need a total of EIGHT jewels to get this monster??
That's five for Fagan and three for the actual evolution. Kind of overbalanced...
My team
AS
Sun Quan (water/wood)
LKali
Awoken Susano +haste latent
Awoken Amaterasu +haste latent
AS
Well rounded killer team
no dark dont need it
Works for me
This might be a bit unrelated, but it's bothering me. Is her name pronounced Sah-KEYE-uh or SAH-koo-ya?

Soo I have been looking through my box trying to think up a new sakuya team... Came up with a Waifu team instead :) any thoughts??
The Waifus:
Awoken Sakuya
L. Kali
Divine Law Valk (L/G)
Bastet (G/F)
Kanna
Awoken Sakuya
Lots of TPAs and time extends all around ! and when you pop kanna and 10 combo you get
10 x 10 x 1.5 x 1.5 x 1.5 x 2 = 675x damage on Kanna !!
CANT STOP THE WAIFUS!!!! :D
Last edited by Trademark 3 years ago ( 8.6.2 )
How is this team
Awoken sakuya
Lkali
Fat chocobo
Light valk
Echidna
Awoken sakuya
So my Awoken Sakuya team:
Awoken Sakuya
L.Kali
L.Kali
Kanna
Awoken Susano
Awoken Sakuya
Two board changes, Shield, Damage Multiplier and dealer, Time extends, Bind clears, 100% skill resist, Decent amount of skill boosts, Multiple TPA's, unbindable leaders.
This seems like a pretty good team to me and with plus eggs it should help with the low hp problem. I was wondering if anyone had anything to add or any changes I should make?
My little sakuya team:
awoken sakuya with 267 plus eggs and max skilled
ult kali 36 plus eggs and max skilled
ult kali again
kanna 78 plus eggs 2 pys used
awoken isis
awoken sakuya friend with 297 plus eggs and max skilled
all of them are full awoken and some are fully latent awoken
Um... Sorry, I'm a newb, should I use this or the other uuevo?
Any reason to keep a second of her? I pulled another on in the PCGF.
Hi everyone. I'm still new to hyper maxing my monsters. I have a. Sakuya at +294 but I can't get her to +297 regardless of any more that I feed + monsters to her? How did you guys do it? I also have full latent awakenings on her but I really want my first +297. Help??
No longer on the tier list, rip relic of the past
Why is Awoken Sakuya good compared to other rainbow leads like light kali?
Rolled Kirin at rank 150. Finally got her Awoken at rank 281.
wow. x4 skill up event!!!! time to use my 5 yellow jewels.
got 0 skill ups
feelsbadman
My Awoken Sakuya team
Awoken Sakuya (+297 hypermaxed fully latent and regularly awoken)
L. Kali (ditto to a.sakuya)
Awoken Tsukuyomi (ditto)
Awoken Isis (ditto, 4 latent awakenings)
L. Kali (ditto)
Awoken Sakuya (+67 fully awoken and latent awoken, hypermaxed.)

Do you want this from me? And as you may recall,
I never signed a thing at all.
You just started your addiction.
I just started my withdrawal.
All the other Awoken cards have only 8 awakenings.
I don't understand why she is the only one awoken card with 9 awakenings.
Gungho, please explain on this unfair??
Last edited by sungyulkim 3 years ago ( 8.7.0 )
Gungho did not intent to make Awoken Sakuya because she already had her super ult version. But Gungho decided to make her awaken version too, using her name "Sakuya" only because some people kept calling her name Kirin.
It's funny that her name in this form is simply "Awoken Sakuya" but some stupid people still call her Kirin. How about just calling her "Awoken"???
Mathematically speaking, "ATK x0.2 for each additional combo" means combos 7+ reduce your attack by 80%. It should say "ATK x1.2 for each additional combo,..."
The perfect Sakuya team
Extremely rem heavy
This Saukya
Subs: Sakuya green sub
Christmas Sakuya red
Regular ult. Sakuya or chibi
Lead: SUPER HYPER ULTRA MEGALOTRAN TOON HYPER FORCE SAKUYA
This team rivals even that of Jerry yomi team
But this excels in rarity
ALL STAR SAKUYA TEAM GOOOI!!!!!!!
looking for A sakuya friends, 329099236
Maeda Keiji better than you...good bye and good riddance.
I don't know how to feel about her in comparison to Green Star Sakuya. We can see all her limbs, but she looks like a circus performer. Green Star looks fiercer, but you can't really tell which part of her is which.
A letter to the Sakuya fanbase:
Dear fans who pester Gungho to make this one come out:
CALM THE SERIOUS HECK DOWN AND QUIT BOTHERING GUNGHO, YOU SPOILED BRATS!
Look at this evolution line now. It's the most complicated one I've seen now. This one really does improve upon even the 8-star form. Awakenings, leader skill, active skill, artwork, all of that. So if you still keep complaining to Gungho at this point, I seriously question your mentality, no matter how old you are.
From,
A one true troll?
Ra is still better :D !This post has been flagged as spam Show I actually think GGS Sakuya is better in every way except for her art.This post has been flagged as spam Show
