Hishimochi/2015

As of March 13th 2015 update Hishimochi seasonal-event is over. Hishimochi no longer drop and their quests are removed. Any hisimochi you already have will remain in your inventory. For more information see February, 23rd 2015 Update

How to Obtain

During the event, Hishimochi can be obtained, substituting the normal ship drop. Instead of the usual notification, a different one will appear.

 

This will notify you that you've received a "Hishimochi": 

Known Drop conditions:

  • Boss Nodes (with some exceptions).
  • Can drop after S-rank or A-rank victory, with a higher drop-rate after S-rank.
  • Can drop even when you have no empty ship slots left.

(These are under the same assumption as Present Box till proven wrong, see [1])

Obtainable in the following maps

For more info about the drop rate see (scroll down to the bottom option "菱餅" ): Kancolle Database Unless specified, assume all drops are from the boss node.

  • 1-3 : (Boss node)
  • 1-4 : (Boss node**)
  • 1-5 : (Boss node**)
  • 2-4 : (Boss node**)
  • 2-5 : (Boss node**)
  • 3-2 : (Boss node)
  • 3-3 : (Boss node**, Node A, Node D**, Node I**)
  • 3-4 : (Boss node, Node D**, Node I, Node N)
  • 3-5 : (Boss node**, Node F**†)
  • 4-3 : (Boss node**, Node M**)
  • 4-4 : (Boss node**)
  • 5-3 : (Node D**, Node F**†, Boss node**)
  • 5-5 : (Boss node**)
  • 6-1 : (Boss node, Node H**)
  • 6-2 : (Boss node**, Node E**)

Sy​mbol:

(**) :Reported to Drop in A-rank

(†) :Official Twitter account mentioned that node F in 3-5 and 5-3 have extra high drop rate.

Note:

The update mentioned that mochi is droppable in many maps beyond world 3-3. This does not mean all the maps.

In the worlds 1-3, 1-4, 1-5 has the minimal chance.

Exchange

Hishimochi can be opened through the item screen and exchanged between three different colors:

 
     
Pink =  ✕ 600 and  ✕ 200 White =  ✕ 1 Green =  ✕ 2 and  ✕ 1

Notes
  • Mochi Quests count what you have. You only need to get 10 mochis to complete 1st and 2nd quests.
  • Therefore, it is advised not use any of the mochi until you have completed the chain quest to avoid having to find more mochi.

Notes

  • The hishimochi are rare, so don't feel bad if you don't get one.
  • It's the same as the Present Box in December 2014.
