I stared at the countdown and felt my fingers twitch toward the summon button. For a second the game felt less like entertainment and more like a timed decision—pull now or wait. You and I both know that missing a phase can sting.
I’ll walk you through every active and upcoming NTE banner for May 2026 so you can decide where to spend your Annulith. I write this from the angle of a player who tracks banners across feeds, Discords, and Moyens I/O’s live schedule—so you won’t need to chase scattered posts. Read the short notes, scan the tables, and decide with confidence.
NTE Banners: All Next and Current Neverness to Everness Characters (May 2026)
My phone shows banner timers like little deadlines on a calendar.
Below is the master schedule for versions 1.0 and 1.1. Use it to spot overlaps, plan savings, and avoid impulse pulls when a stronger S-class is about to rotate in.
NTE Banner Schedule
At a glance the schedule is short and easy to memorize if you check it once a week.
This is the full NTE banner schedule for versions 1.0 and 1.1. If you want quick roster guidance, pair this with our NTE tier list before you pull.

What are the current NTE banners?
The current active phase is The Ichi-daime featuring Nanally; Hotori steps in on May 13. If you’re tracking Annulith or saving daily free pulls, this is the schedule to bookmark.
Neverness to Everness Current and Next Banners
On the main page, character portraits replace each other with the kind of rhythm you notice after a few refreshes.
If you chase a single S-class, treat the phases as short windows. Nanally opens the version and Hotori follows. Edgar, Mint, and Adler fill the first phase as featured A-class options.
| Banner | Characters and Weapons | Date |
|---|---|---|
| The Ichi-daime | Nanally Edgar Mint Adler |
April 29, 2026 – May 13, 2026 |
| Hotori Banner | Hotori | May 13, 2026 – June 3, 2026 |
If you’ve been hoarding Annulith codes and daily login rewards, now’s when those reserves matter—pulling blindly when a strong counter is due is like a tide pulling coins from your pocket.
When do the current banners run?
Nanally: April 29 – May 13, 2026. Hotori: May 13 – June 3, 2026. Lacrimosa begins June 3 for version 1.1.
NTE Upcoming Banners
The marketing feed has been teasing Lacrimosa art on repeat, which usually means a headline banner is coming soon.
Hotta Studio’s drip campaign points to Lacrimosa and Chaos as the next S-class focuses. If you follow Moyens I/O or the official NTE channels, the teasers line up enough to treat June 3 as a pivot date for many players.
| Banner | Characters and Weapons | Date |
|---|---|---|
| Lacrimosa Banner | Lacrimosa | June 3, 2026 – TBD |
| Chaos Banner | Chaos | TBD |
Who should I pull for on the Lacrimosa banner?
If Lacrimosa fills a role your roster lacks—say single-target damage or a specific Arc pairing—plan to shift savings into the June phase. Check community trackers and Moyens I/O’s tier list to confirm whether Lacrimosa outclasses your current S picks.
Neverness to Everness Standard Banners (Permanent)
Every permanent banner reads like a familiar storefront: the same faces, the same odds.
The permanent banner keeps six S-class characters available at equal chance when you hit hard pity; A-class and Arcs appear there too. Treat this banner as the safety net for long-term collection.
| Characters | ARC |
|---|---|
| Sakiri | TBD |
| Baicang | TBD |
| Hathor | TBD |
| Fadia | TBD |
| Daffodill | TBD |
| Jiuyuan | TBD |
If you’re saving for a particular Arc or an older S-class, the permanent pool is as precise as a Swiss watch for long-term planning—its odds don’t surprise you, but its rate of return is slow.
What’s on the permanent NTE banner?
Sakiri, Baicang, Hathor, Fadia, Daffodill, and Jiuyuan are the six S-class names to remember. All A-class characters and Arcs also drop here.
I track banners so you don’t waste pulls—use community trackers, the official Hotta Studio feed, and Moyens I/O’s updates to confirm dates before you spend. Which banner will you chase this month and why?
