    Because the Yokai event is an enormous grind utilizing one of the reviled features in the game (FATEs) and people felt it was a fairly lazy implementation. Having done the event previously, I can attest it's absolutely awful. The RNG will leave you farming the same low level areas for potentially hours. Now this may benefit players who have jobs they've ignored but for those with everything above even 30 it means you're essentially getting nothing out of the grind until the medals drop. Lucky Bancho's census last years shows just how much people detested the event. Out of 507,722 active characters 65% didn't even bother to get a single minion. The weapons has less numbers than Midas Savage clears.

    It's among the reasons Diadem 2.0 flopped. People simply dislike FATEs yet the devs seem to frequently fall back on them when they're out of ideas. Thus, you see the negative responses. Now do I care it was brought back? Not at all. I'll still call it the worst piece of content they ever released though.
