Don't Get Rid Of The Songbirds!

Hmm...if we're going by jpn idol standards, "Songbirds" might remain but the ladies might not. Can't remain young and pretty for long in that industry ;p

Personally, I'd like to see a different little ladies day event next year. I don't hate the idols but it'd be nice to change things up every year and then.

It could take a Love Live approach. Have a new group up and coming try to live up to the Songbirds the way Aqours originally tried to live up to Muse.

Personally I would enjoy quests related to the dolls and the tradition/lore of the LLD event again over some girlies dancing on a stage.

I'm not sure if you did the first two Little Ladies Day Events in ARR?
The first one was about Edvya - a doll, modeled after a Sultans daughter. The GSM-guild had built her for a competion about making dolls, but she wasnt working, so they asked you to show her around to cheer her up and in the end she didnt want to leave your side anymore - which is how we got that minion.
The second one was about a rich Ul'dahn man who lost touch with his daughter and tried to win her back by building a showcase of lifesized dolls - in the end his daughter told him that she was upset that he was working so much and never had time for her again. She was still happy about the dolls because it showed her that her dad does care for her, but would have rather spend time with him.

...and after that... three years of Dating Sim and Dancing... I'm glad they included that little quest at the end this year because the whole "Oh, Songbirds are back on stage"-buisness was quite boring and stale by now.

I really, really hope they'll go back to the roots of the festival again and drop those girlies. I'm so, so done with them and so, so ready to have some nice, heartwarming little stories again.

I understand where you are coming from. I, too, am interested in the lore of the event; as well as, the real life holiday that is the basis for Little Ladies Day. What I meant in my post is that I don't want the Songbirds gone. Let them remain in the background; but, don't remove them totally from the game.

Good point! I honestly forgot that the singers "graduate" and new singers are brought in idol culture. Now, I like all three of the current Songbirds, especially Ulala; but, it would be cool for a new Songbirds act to make an appearance made up of a roegadyn, elezen, and hyur.

Judging from the majority of responses, players are yearning for a return to the roots of Little Ladies Day. The lonesome lass was a good start. I hope we see more of that next year.
