>>59015241From the scuttlebutt I've heard about the next box legends, it seems they're using the 'chus as gender-specific companions associated with the respective BL (male 'chu, grandpa-esque legend, female 'chu, granny-like legend) and will almost certainly have some bullshit explanation why THIS particular 'chu is the only one to fulfil it (aside from gen 10, 20th anniversary, initial '26 planned release, stick the mascot in as a constant this time).
