Welcome.
Future admirals must create an account on DMM. An English DMM account is fine, as players only need a VPN to connect to the game as well as to enter the lottery. Check out the Proxy Connection guide for more info on how to do this. Please read the FAQ section down below before asking any questions.
Entry Lottery
Currently, the entry of new admirals is limited by lottery. The time of the entrance lottery is announced on the official Twitter account and takes place almost daily.

Entering the Lottery
Navigate to the game website at the specified time to enter the lottery.
Here are tips from the staff to ensure you have a successful lottery:
- Before connecting, clear your browser cache.
- Set your PC timezone to JST (UTC+09:00, 5 minutes time deviation is ok).
- Set your browser cache to at least 1024MB (not mandatory, but recommended).
- Chrome: modify the end of shortcut link into this
chrome.exe" --disk-cache-size=1073741824
- Once you reach the cat waiting screen, refresh every 5~10 minutes.
- 5分 (5 minutes); 10分 (10 minutes).
- Do not under any circumstances reload the page earlier than mentioned in the lottery (e.g. 4min59sec), as it lowers your chances.
- Those who do not make it into the lottery have a increased chance on the next day.
You made it into the lottery. Keep refreshing every 5~10 minutes.
You have won a place, click on server which has a green/blue bar.
Server full, you missed the lottery. Please try again tomorrow.
You did not make it into the lottery. Please try again tomorrow.
A network error has occurred.
FAQ
Help! I'm getting a B-001 error when attempting to register!
- Use a different VPN
- Clear your cache
I got (or stuck) into the lottery process, although the lottery hasn't started/has ended already.
- Set your timezone to Japan/JST.
When I connected to the game all the servers were full, what do I do?
- You missed the lottery process. Follow the lottery process to get into the game, and if you fail, try again in another lottery.
What time does the lottery start??
- Lottery generally begins in the afternoon around 16:30 JST (± 1 hour). Don't forget to check the twitter for the exact time.
Why is it so hard to get in? I have been trying for a few days!
- You are competing with thousands of other users for spots, keep trying and don't give up hope.
- Don't be impatient and refresh more often than recommended on the screen, as it will lower your chances.
