Visited the Akihabara Gachapon hall and the prize quality felt way down

Everyone online says it's a treasure trove, but most capsules I saw last week were just cheap keychains of side characters nobody wants. Spent about 3000 yen and only got one decent figure. Has the gacha scene there actually gotten worse, or did I just hit a bad batch?

3000 yen for one decent pull is brutal, man. That's actually crazy.

Yeah, I used to defend the place too, but my last trip was the same story. Felt like half the machines were stuffed with leftover merch from three seasons ago. Terry_bailey35 is right, that's a crazy bad return on your money. It's not just a bad batch, the whole floor feels like it's running on fumes lately. They're banking on the hype while filling capsules with the stuff that didn't sell anywhere else.
