Click off this video if you're playing SIFAS worldwide, haven't reached chapter 17 yet, and don't want to be spoiled.

I have mixed feelings about Shioriko joining the group.
On the one hand, it’s really exciting. SIFAS has always felt to me like an arcade game, and now even more so. Seeing her appear in the performance at the end of chapter 17 felt like meeting Jewlie or Falala or something. Adding surprise characters has always been a thing in PriPara/PriChan, etc. Also, I suppose Nijigaku has been missing their Eli/Dia-like character
On the other hand... I don’t really like her that much. I mean. I don’t hate her. But I just kinda don’t care. And it’s odd for Love Live to do this because they’ve always given us YEARS to adjust whenever introducing new idols. To add a new character to Nijigaku all of a sudden feels like an April Fools joke. I can’t imagine the fandom not hating her. Am I right?
