Maneki-neko — In-Depth Analysis

The Maneki-neko is the lucky-cat pet from the Zen Event, and it sits in a strange place on the rarity ladder. Officially it carries an uncommon tag, yet its only sources are the Kitsune Chest and the Exotic Kitsune Chest, both event-locked rewards rather than ordinary eggs. With a roughly 34% pull from the Kitsune Chest and about 34.5% from the Exotic version, it is one of the most generous odds you will find for a themed cat, so most players who grind the event will end up with at least one.

Thematically it leans into the "beckoning cat" fortune motif, which fits a farm build that wants lucky procs and mutation rolls rather than raw harvest weight. Because the row does not list a hardened passive value, treat its bonus qualitatively: it is a flavorful luck-adjacent companion rather than a hard economic engine.

For a serious team it is a fringe pick. The friendly odds make it easy to collect, but easy availability also caps its trade value. Run it if you love the Zen aesthetic or stack it alongside genuine luck pets; otherwise keep it as a charming bench option rather than a core slot.
