-Kiara, Gura and Ame SHARED ONE MANAGER AMONG THE THREE OF THEM.
-Expectations were that EN would be an ID+ tier at most
-Mass hirings have occurred by Cover over the past year to fill in the lack of manpower
The fact is, while yes things would've been smoother had Council been recruited and debuted sooner, there probably just wasn't a good window for such a thing between bringing on more staff, training, and auditions. Like imagine the amount of crap they had to sift through for EN2 auditions, I have no doubt they had an absolute sea of garbage tier indies and political timebombs, on top of trying to find people that were more than 'just' popular indie chubbas.
