>>29143470>Iluna has to be one of the most diverse waves I've seenIlluna has two chuubas whose backstories are "I'm sick and depressed oh no but now I have FRIENDS". Nearly identical. If that's not bad enough, Millie, Mika, and Reimu all already did this plotline, and they all did it better.
Aia's "I was a super powerful and mischevious supernatural dommy mommy that got into too much trouble" plotline was already done by Nina, and she does literally every aspect of that better. Aia could pull ahead, but the debut did not set a good tempo.
Millie, Enna, and Rosemi are already terrible cooks that should be better; we don't need Scarle for that. We also don't need Scarle to be a horny otomefag: Enna, Petra, Finana, and Elira all cover varying flavors of that niche already.
Ren is the only person not entering a niche that's already filled, and that's mainly because Yugo and Enna, the other main musicians, cover other styles and subniches, and also more musicians is generally not a bad thing and really hard to "overfill" as a niche.
So what, pray tell, is the "diversity" or "unique niche" that Iluna is filling? I don't see it.
