first of all good cards and cute cut ins TT please...

i'd also really like the extension of their sekai to not be a new stage. the only way i could possibly enjoy this is if it looks like the budoukan because performing at the budoukan is their next goal but even then i'd rather it be something else.... like a backstage area or dressing room or practice room kind of thing. i can't decide if because they have more more house this is more or less likely, it might feel repetitive since minori5 was all about the physical and theoretical space of the practice room, but it also might be a nice reflection of them sharing a space to grow together. it would be cute if there was some kind of personal touch to this new space in the sekai. i'd also really like something outdoors like a field of flowers or a garden or something like an outdoor stage even but i don't think that'll happen :( side note it'd be fun, if it's a stage space, for it to have more to do with the lights in the sekai... i wish they played with those more. it was really cool how they turned blue to reflect haruka's feelings in mainsto and i feel like they could do more with that but i'm not sure how

as far as the story goes i'm really not sure... i'm kind of bad at general story predictions, i'm better at character predictions. i could see it having something to do with their budoukan live, actually! practicing and planning for the budoukan (as they haven't done much prep for it yet), maybe haruka starts doing choreography (i really really want this to happen - maybe they continue this in haruka4?), riho returning and writing them a new song or two, shizuku working on new costumes, airi working out logistics with ayaka.... etc. some kind of backstage area would make a lot of sense for an event like this..!! or if it's a budoukan type stage even..!!!!! to be honest that's about all i've got here because i haven't gotten around to sitting down and reading any of the world link events in full so i'm not entirely sure what they typically entail. i've read about half of niigo's and that's about it, and from what i know they're heavily connected to the extensions of the sekais whether that be exploring it or whatever... we'll see...!!!!
