>>108457566If we had gotten Advent on time, and Advent was about the same, things would have been way better for everyone.
The girls would have had energized and vibrant backup for the entire winter season and spring leading up to Connect the World, the fans would have had stuff to look forward to and enjoy rather than ruminating on how shitty things are, and the homos would have gotten ignored by the main fanbase (which isn't what Omega wanted, but is what would have been best for them).
They still wouldn't be a success, but fans might not have a blood grudge against them. Apathy is a lot better than active disgust.
Omega was incapable of making this sort of success story happen because he was a truly bottom-barrel retard, so it's arguable that we had to go through the shitty suffering of the grim era to get his ass fired so we could start to really fix the branch.
