Stellar Affinity Glossary

Stellar Affinity ships under several marketing names — Stellar Affinity on EROLABS, 星慾姬絆 in Chinese storefronts, 성간의 유대 in Korean coverage, and 星欲コネクト in some Japanese partner listings. The Android package id on many emulator and store pages is com.himefun.stellaraffinity.erolabs. After the 29 July 2026 launch, captains drown in overlapping labels: star fragments versus star diamonds, mail gifts versus Redeem strings, login pulls versus newbie recruit. This glossary defines the vocabulary the rest of the wiki uses so you spend resources in the right UI instead of the wrong box.

Use it when a friend says “claim the 5000 thing” and you are not sure whether that is mailbox fuel or a code. Pair definitions with currencies, divine artifacts, and launch rewards.

Core game terms

Term	What it means	Wiki deep dive
Stellar Affinity	English product name on EROLABS; adult idle bullet-hell RPG with affection-powered ship fantasy	How to play
Hime Bonds	Spiritual affection track — Talk, Gift, threshold scenes that refill ship energy	Hime Bonds
Cumpanions	Physical companion / dating stage track parallel to Hime Bonds	Cumpanions
Divine artifacts	Combat modules forged from affection energy; swing planetary fights	Divine artifacts
Planet docks	Story pilgrimage nodes — each dock is a planetary adventure chapter	Planet walkthrough
Idle harvest	Offline or parked ship gathering while you are away	Combat & idle
Bullet-hell stages	Active dodge-and-shoot clears inside each dock	Combat & idle
Energy conversion	Turning bond meters into artifact recipes and slots	Artifacts & energy

Currency and summon vocabulary

Term	Typical label	Role
Star fragments (碎星)	Soft progression fuel	Levels, crafts, broad upgrades — see currencies
Star diamonds (星鑽)	Premium gems	Banners, value packs, emergency stamina — spend with a written plan
Newbie targeted recruit	Early rate-up lane	Lock one preferred crewmate; finish or abandon before splitting tickets — gacha & summon
Login pull campaign	Cumulative daily summons	Reported up to ~200 pulls across the window; not a code box reward
Seven-day carnival	Launch mission board	Mixed tickets, mats, bond tasks for week one — beginner week
Story free 6★	Main-dock cultivation path	Designated core girl can reach six-star from story progress without buying every banner

Launch mail often includes a ~5000 star-fragment class gift tied to the CBT community clear goal (normal stage 10-10). Elite CBT spenders on the same account may receive 200% star-diamond value in mail. Neither arrives through Redeem — that distinction is the most expensive mistake on day one.

Account and claim paths

Path	Used for	Not used for
Mail	Server gifts, CBT returns, compensation, login streak rows	Typing alphanumeric coupon strings
Redeem	Public gift codes from streams or posts	Fragment packs, diamond returns, login pull progress
Event UI	Carnival boxes, timed shops, banner tickets	Permanent account binding
EROLABS bind	Saving progress across devices	Reroll experiments you intend to delete

If Redeem rejects a phrase that looks like a mail subject line, stop. Open mailbox first, then read how to redeem only for real keys listed on active codes.

Summon and planning shorthand

• SSR / rate-up — high-rarity pulls on featured banners; CBT footage from Japanese captains reported roughly 0.7% SSR in one JP CBT video — treat that as CBT-reported, not a live guarantee, and verify the in-client rate table on your build.
• Soft pity mindset — plan batches and stop conditions without inventing hard pity numbers the client has not shown you — use summon priority and the summon planner.
• Carry / support / flex — role language from roster and best teams instead of undocumented character names.

Regional naming cheat sheet

English UI may say “star fragments” while mail shows 碎星; premium currency may appear as 星鑽. Korean press uses 성간의 유대; Japanese partners sometimes shorten to 星欲コネクト. Count each pile once regardless of label language. Screenshot wallets after big claim days so carnival, mail, and code rewards do not double-count in your head.

How glossary terms chain together

A productive launch evening reads like a sentence: bind EROLABS → claim mail fragment gift → finish newbie recruit toward one carry → push planet docks for story 6★ mats → run Hime Bonds and Cumpanions → convert energy into divine artifacts → clear bullet-hell checks → park idle harvest before logout. Break any link and captains blame gacha when the ship battery was simply empty.

Bookmark this page during week one. Vocabulary clarity is cheaper than another ten-pull driven by a misunderstood menu label.

When friends use the wrong word

“Redeem the fragment code” almost always means open mail. “Free 200 pulls code” almost always means login UI progress. “CBT diamonds” means mailbox return, not a public string. Translating friend-speak through this table prevents half your alliance from pasting campaign titles into the wrong box.

If a term is missing here, check whether it is a character archetype (roster), a spend rule (currencies), or an event row (current events). The wiki adds rows when patches introduce new sinks — watch patch notes after forced updates.
