Happens After a Recreation Event
A Claw Machine event is a rare minigame that can happen after you do Recreation. It is completely random and can only happen seldomly after each Recreation throughout Career mode.
Note that the Claw Machine event only has a chance to show up when using Recreation outside of the Summer Camp period. Summer Camp's recreation is a fixed, combined option of Rest and Recreation in its case.
Trigger it With Haru Urara
An easy character to go with for intentionally triggering this event is Haru Urara (Bestest Prize). Aside from the Make Debut Race, she has no required races in her Junior and Classic Year.
This gives you the most flexible amount of turns in the game to spam Recreation, since you only need to pick your races for fulfilling her fan requirements.

You will only get a plushie if the middle of the claw is aligned with the center of the plushie. There is a chance to get more than one if you claim a group of plushies. Plushies that are sitting upright are easier to get because its easier to visualize their center. |

Anonymous 4 monthsi found with urara as example that it is a fixed turn where claw machine triggers. it could depend on event career or wich characters and support cards you use. But if you use the same all the time i got the same turn every time.

there comes a question to my mind, can you optimize a run by scouting on which turn you get claw machine. And that with any character.
