Japanese Garden

The Japanese Garden, or simply Garden, takes place outside of a large temple that appeared in front of the Rapture Theater. The lake that passes through the garden is surrounded by many blossoms, stepping stones and a small bridge. There are lanterns on the flowering branches of the cherry blossom trees, and a small pond on the right full of live carp. In the background, there is a mountain reminiscent of Mt. Fuji.

The story revolves around a character completing a trial that relates to their strength (Mastery), if they fail, they lose the ability that they most value as well as the City's residents (referred to as inferior cowards) will fall under an everlasting sleep.

The player's position overlooks the waterway and Japanese scenery, unable to see inside the temple however. To find objects here, it is suggested that players look out for the grass, blossoms and waterfall that may hide things behind them.

The garden serves as an opposite to the recently added Palace location. In addition, it is the first Location to have an animated appearance on the map: lanterns periodically brighten and fade, fish jump out of the water and cherry blossoms fall from the trees.

Ranks
This table shows the energy, experience, and coins for each rank of the Japanese Garden. These will be different depending on a player’s rank and if they participated in the 2018 April event. After the event, the required energy, as well as rewards, rise.
 * Energy is different for different plays depending on what their personal level is in-game. (Ex. Level 9 may have lower energy cost throughout the event, and level 50, may have a higher energy cost throughout the event) Therefore this chart is not going to be the same for everyone during an event.

They become the normal requirements for for entering the location for both old and newer players.
