Can we please have at least 1 female Au Ra to accompany the WoL on their adventures?

Nah. I don't think so.

Also Allie, whom we'll be getting more of in 6.4.

Okay then I hope there will never be a prominent female aura character ever again.

Then unfortunately I'm pretty sure the story, at least characters will be just like a 7 year old stale bread with the same faces, the same platitudes about friendship and the same predictable dialogues.

I genuinely don't see the issue with this. And I'm not even trying to be cold and heartless, why not just hire a new VA? I genuinely really like Yugiri and wouldn't mind seeing more of her.

It's just a difference in opinion then. Personally, I enjoyed them less once I learned more about them, and feel like they're just boring comic relief at this point, while before they felt like they had depth. Becoming a scion gives a character the chance to overstay his welcome imo. This has more to do with the writers being afraid to let "finished" characters go though, which is probably a topic for a different thread. More power to you if you enjoy a happier Graha though. I get it. I just don't, personally.

The proposed new Au Ra NPC doesn't even need to be Yugiri, I'd rather have someone new really. Preferably Au Ra, Roe, Viera maybe a Highlander. And it doesn't help that practically every single Scion character already concluded their stories and Square Enix has no balls to threaten their lives or make them suffer.

I've been wishing for another shb-tier isekai arc just to get away from everything and start fresh for almost this exact reason. I'd be thrilled at just, a new squad. But way too many people love the old squad, so that's probably what we'll get to keep for the next decade.

Yeah she was kind of forgettable to me too. I honestly couldn't tell you much about her. She just came to mind first for some reason.

I can definitely understand not liking a character, but doesn't depth imply something beneath what you can see? That being their actual personality when they aren't in constant war mode?

I would imagine it's out of respect, I believe it happened during SBs production so after that they started to draw down her role. If recall her HW VA was meant to do SB but obviously that happened and so they hired a replacement VA to finish production. Feel free to correct me if I am wrong, I haven't looked at the details in years.

No it happened at the beginning of HW and she was immediately replaced for the rest of HW and SB.

Wait, what? Did I missed something from MSQ? I didn't see her at all after ShB.
