Sorry if you've already talked about this before but:
What are your thoughts on the post across beat characters? ( Idk what they're called) like abcd and arigusawa student council?
ooooh.... ok. sorry if u like them btw. i am kinda harsh on abcd especially.
abcd - ok. i will be honest, i dont like them and probably will take forever until i get to liking them. not bc of their characters and their writing, but bc they were originally supposed not be playable, but then they changed their minds and made them playable. another reason was bc i got robbed of a dj unit with adults and got teenagers (except date). it's a dumb reason to dislike a unit, i know that, but it's better than me trying to figure out how "problematic" they are to find an excuse to hate them. i feel like adding them in THIS EARLY, right after abyssmare and unichord was in the game for a year wasn't a good move. they should've waited another year or something. people were still getting used to abyssmare and unichord and then suddenly there was a new unit? i feel like they were just desperate for money. (which i think is the truth, but tell me if im wrong) it's also a personal reason for me, but i like catching up with each unit's stories and stuff bc i write fics, so i want to make sure theyre in character in some way. im already tired catching up on 10 units and their lore, (this includes COA and LMO) i am not adding an 11th one into the mix. sorry abcd.
i didnt read their event stories when they were released or got their cards when their event arrived. (i got rinku in the audition gacha instead bc i was still annoyed w them) i feel like if they were to add abcd, they should've waited another year or two and released them.
one positive i'll say about abcd is that they seem to be written well and are honestly a little hilarious from the small interactions i saw. shika and eimi are interesting as well, i feel like theyre supposed to parallel kyoko and shinobu in a way, but im not sure (eimi = kyoko, shika = shinobu). eimishika the world !
arisugawa student council - i know next to nothing about these girls, i just know there's a himejoshi and two girls having toxic yuri moments. i tried watching their stageplay online but then i got so busy and honeslty drained bc of school work i didnt watch it ever (i should change that) from what ive seen, they seem pleasant, even if theyre trying to ruin lyrilily, and helps w expanding more on arisugawa as a school and lyrilily as a unit. i like the idea that two of the girls are supposed to parallel haruna and miyu, i rlly like that. im just hoping they dont become playable like abcd..... sighhhhh. i know they did a cover of i shall be a cat, which makes my fears a little more worse.
actually, im gonna ramble for a quick moment, if they were to add in a new unit to the d4dj franchise, they should just do it like what they did with egoegg (shoutout to egoegg, btw) and are just a live unit. it will not only make the game less taxing w juggling around 40 characters, but also encourage people to watch more live shows. but idk, im no business expert.
anyway, that's all. sorry this one is kinda negative, whoops!
