[b]Granblue Fantasy[/b] (グランブルーファンタジー [i]Guranburuu Fantajii[/i]), officially abbreviated as [b]Granblue[/b] (グラブル [i]Guraburu[/i]), is a mobile turn-based RPG by [[Cygames]], with a Japanese-only release in March 2014, and an English-language release in April 2016. The official anime released in 2017, followed by a second season in 2019. 

The gameplay is heavily reliant on the player's summons and weapons obtained from the gacha system and from in-game raids. The player can equip a maximum of ten weapons and five summons at a time and this is generally referred to as the "weapon grid" and "summon pool".

Granblue is infamous for its competitive week-long event (Guild Wars/Unite & Fight/古戦場) where players farm chunks of meat and try to score more points than their opponent crew for hours at a time. Art is occasionally drawn depicting this in game event, one example being [[post guild war celebration]]s.
