l/n anon again!

i can't believe i actually guessed shihomix focus lol. i got the entire lineup wrong tho😭 but it kinda makes sense? while shiho definitely didn't need a 4* that much, shizuku and rin did, and shiho getting the first 21st 4* means that miku is 100% in nene5 (just in case some people were skeptical lol).

also, kinda spoiler but since you already know: saki definitely has a lot of event cards, but hey at least it's actually a 3* this time! and tsukasa was very due for a 2*, too, so there's that.

as for future predictions, tsukasa getting an event card here really makes me think nene5 will be nenekasa + miku (cool) now. i did consider emunene + miku but tbh any of the two is ok as long as emu isn't the 3*.

end of november really looks like it will be a n25 hakolim… mizuena + len (happy) is my main bet, but you never know. maybe this time they'll actually give mafuyu a 2* and kanade a 3* (watch one of them get excluded from the set💀).

as for shizuku5, whichever permmix they do and new years…

your mafumino + luka prediction still kinda holds imo, especially if ena5 is a hakolim, but i'm not sure if they're willing to give minori two mixed event 4* so close to each other… but eh whatever. otherwise i guess they could do minoshizu + meiko in shizuku5 and then mafuairi + luka in the permmix? i really don't want to see airi getting yet another lim let her get a perm pls😭😭😭😭

as for new years, i'm still feeling minori and mmj kaito, along with akito or emu, probably. event is probably pure because kaito needs to get his pure 3peat and the other choices kinda fit? as for bfes… an definitely seems likely. not really sure on ichika though, but i can see it happening.

tl;dr: my predictions are
nene5 -> nene (banner), tsukasa, wxs miku (cool)
ena5 -> ena (banner), mizuki, n25 len (happy)
shizuku5 -> shizuku (banner), minori/airi, mmj meiko (happy? maybe cool but eh i'd rather not)
permmix -> mafuyu (banner), minori/airi, n25 luka (if minori pu, cool or cute; if airi pu, mysterious maybe?)
new years -> akito/emu (banner), minori, mmj kaito (pure)
bloomfes -> an (pure? i don't think they'll do cute again) and… i'm not sure on the other one lol, ichika (pure) or saki (also pure) seem possible, but god that's too much pure… i don't think it they care that much tho (see: 2nd anni)

shizuku5 and the permmix are interchangeable, but it mostly depends on whether airi is the pu in shizu5 or minori😭

heya! shihomix wasn't really among my expectations haha, like i considered it but didn't think it'd happen. but it makes sense...

the upside of this lineup is that shiho hitting 4* cap means she likely won't get another 4* for a while, which should discard her as an option for NY bfes. also yeah, miku should 100% be in nene5 lol

nene5 is also likely to have tsukasa because he's getting an event card here, so... nene + tsukasa + miku. we somehow go back to my initial prediction for it haha

end of november is definitely very likely ena + mizuki + len; even though it breaks some patterns, it's just the choice that makes most sense... besides enamizumafu? but len has to be a lim somewhere by NY and putting both kaito and len on NY seems unlikely
also ena's very likely a pscorer (only char with just two left), so event would likely be mysterious or happy just for that

now, getting to shizuku5, the perm mix, and NY... i don't think they'll do mmj 4* in three events in a row, it has never happened before, so im not feeling mmj in the perm mix. i think it's more likely to be shizuku+minori in shizuku5 -> mafuyu perm mix with niigo luka -> NY featuring a mmj char (for mmj kaito)

minori getting two mixed 4* so close is fine because, well, it happened to shiho last year (zookeeper -> NY); but that's exactly why i think it may not happen, since it'd be doing the same thing again

minori kind of has to be in shizuku5; she's definitely already beating airi's record of longest gap between 4* (~194 at minimum), so doing shizuku5 first would be the most logical choice. airi hasn't had a perm in a long asf time but, at this rate... who knows

in my opinion it'll go like:
shizuku5 - shizuku + minori + then either airi or meiko. meiko should get a 4* somewhere, and mmj seems like the only choice (luka's in saki5, so i doubt she's in another comm this song rotation). meiko also hasn't been in any mmj song in a long time, so im leaning towards her being there

perm mix - mafuyu mixed, because niigo hasn't gotten a third mixed yet, and giving kanade a perm mix seems unlikely...? niigo luka is probably there too, so the question is who's the third 4*... i'm leaning towards rui, because doing three events in a row of mmj 4* is unlikely, and other chars are likely somewhere else

NY - im still thinking akito focus, bc emumix2 was quite recent. since mmj kaito has a high chance to be there, i'd say airi is here if she isn't in shizuku5, and minori could happen if shizuku5 either has both airi and minori, or 100% guaranteed if it's just airi. im leaning more towards airi so they can do akty+szai event ^_^ (personal wish) and maybe with akito+airi as the lineup they'll do a tiger set (very delusional wish)
as for the NY bloomfes, im still thinking of leoni + vbs (unless it's leoni + mmj lol?), so i was thinking of ichika + an now that shiho can't happen, although i've started considering saki instead of ichika?

so, here's my predictions written cleanly:
Nene5 - Nene, Tsukasa, WxS Miku // Rui, Emu [Cool]
Ena5 - Ena, Mizuki, Len // Kanade, Mafuyu [Mysterious or Happy]
Shizuku5 - Shizuku, Minori, MEIKO // Haruka, Airi [Happy?]
MafuyuMix3 - Mafuyu, Rui, Niigo Luka // ??? (Maybe Kanade and someone else?) [???]
AkitoMix3 - Akito, Airi, MMJ KAITO // Touya, Shizuku [Happy or Pure]
