Sakura is a playable character in Final Fantasy Brave Exvius. Her initial class is as a Sage, focused on dealing magic damage centered on the Lightning element and providing support to the party. She currently has five variants: the story unit (obtained during Chapter VII), the limited-time "Grim Lord Sakura" (available during the Global-exclusive Return to the Halloween Castle event), the Japanese-exclusive "Hunter Sakura" (obtainable during the collaboration with Monster Hunter Explore), "Maiden Sakura" (a reward unit for Seoul Fan Festa 2017 attendees), her Season Two variant "Blossom Sage Sakura" and her Season Three variant "Sakura of the Delta Star".
Sakura[]
Sakura's job is listed as Sage. A 3-5★ story unit, Sakura is obtained after clearing Magic Library - Showdown of Destiny in Magi Nation Mysidia (during Chapter VII). Her roles are Physical Damage, Magic Damage and Support. She has no particular element or status ailment resistances. As with the rest of the story units, she has no Trust Master reward.
Sakura is one of the best story units. She can cover a several elements such as Dark, Light and Lightning, although she shines the most on the latter element. Her abilities include other effects like resistance to status ailments, reduced the damage taken by the party, and boost their resistance to Light/Dark/Lightning attacks. Her main means of offense are Dual Black Magic and Thundaja allowing her to build up damage quickly. Nonetheless, Sakura only reaches 5★ at most, so her potential is limited, lacking enough stats and being rather frail.
Her awakening materials are the following:
- 4★: Pearl of Wisdom x20, Esper Cryst x10, Mystic Ore x8, Scripture of Time x3, Sacred Crystal x3
- 5★: Mystic Ore x15, Scripture of Time x8, Sacred Crystal x5, Esper's Tear x3, Holy Crystal x3

Grim Lord Sakura[]
Grim Lord Sakura is a limited-time 5-6★ Rare Summon available during the Global-exclusive event Return to the Halloween Castle. Her job is listed as Grim Lord and her roles are Magic Damage and Support. She has innate elemental resistance to Fire and Light (+50%), but is weak to Dark (-50%). She has a Trust Master reward: the Reaver, a two-handed dual-element (Fire/Dark) weapon that increases stats (HP+666, MP+66, ATK+33, MAG+100, SPR+36) and has an exclusive effect (Death Awaits) for Grim Lord Sakura herself.
Sakura's Halloween variant is a very powerful attacker and supporting unit. She, like her story variant, can cover the same elements, and adds Fire into the mix. Her "Grim" abilities give her great coverage and can inflict status ailments on enemies. Most notably are "Soul Barrage" and "Eldritch Flames". The former is a powerful, albeit costly magic chaining move (with a decent modifier) against all enemies, and being neutral damage is unlikely to face resistance (yet at the same time it cannot take advantage of elemental chains or weaknesses). "Eldritch Flames" counters that problem as a single target, but powerful chain move with Fire/Dark damage and imperils. On top of that Grim Lord Sakura can double cast any of these abilities.
While her support abilities cannot be dualcasted, they are serviceable, offering resistance to stat breaks, status ailment immunity, elemental protection, Reraise, and massive increases to DEF/SPR at the cost of most of her HP.
Her awakening materials are the following: Divine Crystal x15, Fairies' Writ x10, Rainbow Bloom x10, Prismatic Horn x10, Calamity Writ x5
Stats[]
Grim Lord Sakura's highest base stats are her MAG and SPR. Furthermore, her passives traits greatly increase her MAG and HP in particular, making her the off-case of a mage unit who is potentially bulky.

Limit Burst[]
Phantom Fury is Grim Lord Sakura's Limit Burst and a damage-type ability with a buff-type secondary effect. The skill is a 9-hit attack that deals great magic damage to all enemies, and increases the MAG strength of one of her moves for the next turn by values above 100%.

Her Quick abilities can all be dualcasted and they offer several elemental attacks (Light/Dark/Lightning) for moderate damage, being able to decrease the enemies' resitance to these elements. What makes her a great finisher are her two strongest abilities, "Quick Rebel Intention" (which deals massive non elemental damage to all enemies) and "Quick Final Thunder" (which can build up power for a significant damage modifier at full strength), two abilities that coupled with dualcasting, can reach their maximum value incredibly fast.
Noteworthy is that she can also dualcast supportive abilities that greatly increase ATK and MAG to all units, or regenerate MP.

Sakura of the Delta Star[]
Sakura of the Delta Star serves as Sakura's season three variant. A 5-7★ Rare Summon unit available since the "Aldore Five-O" Story Event and based on her membership in The Orders near the end of season two, but with a new uniform. Her role in combat is Magic Damage. Her Trust Master Reward is the Delta Star's Headband which provides decent MAG and MP along Lightning Resistance, while her Super Trust Master Reward is the Black Roselia Rod, named after her friend Roselia.
Sakura has a rather simple modus operandi, dealing damage by stacking modifiers boosts on her main ability Quick Thunderous Rebel Intention through pentacasting multiple skills that boost it (but limited to select each skill only once), these come with added effects like adding Killer bonuses against certain enemy types, or other buffs mostly to herself, which also fill her LB gauge substantially. Her second means of inflicting damage is through her Limit Burst, Eternal Ray - Burst which is no longer CG animated, which is supported by her abilities which also boost LB damage. Sakura now alternates between these forms of damage every turn, making her rotation fairly simple.
Her passives grant her MAG boosts with an emphasis on True Doublehand builds, along with modest bulk. She has immunities to paralyze, confuse, petrify and stop along resistance boosts to Lightning, Light and Dark elements.
