Waifus—one of the greatest gifts anime has bestowed upon its fans. Behind every successful waifu, however, is the science in its creation. In this week’s issue of the GamerBraves Newsletter, we’ll provide in-depth analysis on just that, with our lens focused on mobile gacha game waifus.

Mobile game developers have created more waifus than the anime industry in the past year, with newly released mobile games easily having huge rosters of girls, ever-growing in their number. In this issue, we’ll look at miHoYo specifically, and break down the science they used in creating a waifu.

From archetypes to interactions, we go through the ingredients that make up the secret sauce that is waifu creation. How do you make full use of beloved tropes without overplaying them? What’s the secret in expanding the legion of simps for a particular character beyond their design?

We tackle these topics and more in the GamerBraves Newsletter. Regardless of whether you plan to build a waifu yourself or if you are an appreciator of waifu culture, be sure to give this week’s issue of our newsletter a read by subscribing with your email below:
