There are also the regionally exclusive gear and minions that eventually landed in the Mogstation. Considering the disaster that resulted from the Maid and Butler attires in regions outside of JP and NA, I'd expect those to pop up in time.

Basically, I don't understand OP's argument. People who got to do the event got the experience of the event itself and the items/emotes/furniture for free if they were up for grinding it. If you happened to miss it, no worries, it'll be on the Mogstation when the next event starts up.

It's good to do it both ways. Don't see a problem.

Really, I feel like people like the OP are why the new Summer Stuff is just dyable Shisui gear instead of something new and exclusive...
