BOILING Take: Jiro does not need to be added to the game anytime soon.
Now before you take out your pitchforks, hear me out. I love Jiro as a character, but ngl we got bigger fish to fry.
My Hero Ultra Rumble has plenty of issues, but one of which I don't hear talked about too often is the severe lack of representation among the roster. Take a look for yourself.
(ABS= Alternate Battle Style count)
UA Hero Course(1A/1B/Big Three): 17 [ABS: 10]
Pro Heroes: 10 [ABS: 5]
Outlier: Shinso (At least at the time of his release in mhur he was an outlier)
I want to see more outliers like Shinso. Characters who don't fit into any of the prominent categories of characters(at least on the hero side). Now, I hear what you might be saying. "Mhur adds popular characters to the roster, and Jiro is popular in the community, so why not her?" Because first and foremost, we need more VILLAINS.
Right now, we have 10 Villains total [ABS: 6]. With the TUNING system, if we don't get more villain choices soon, balance will only proceed to be thrown further and further off. Have you ever taken a look at the villain rapid special tuning slot? It's a rough look. The last time a Rapid Villain released was season SEVEN.
That said, the characters below are obvious picks over Jiro in my mind
Gentle Criminal/La Brava (Might be added soon, AND is a really good pick for a Villain Rapid)
Stain (Popular choice, but I can already feel the frustration of getting stunned now.)
Spinner (The only base LoV member to not get put in aside from Magne.)
Muscular (Textbook Assault pick)
Byking please I need this! You haven't released a season with a villain as the feature since season 13 (Since Season Nine if YAFO doesn't count as a new villain in your eyes)
That's not to say I don't want any more heroes, though. Just please, PLEASE give us picks that aren't just more 1A students for the time being. 1B picks(I've seen my fair share of Tetsutetsu truthers. It'd lowk be funny for him to be a joke release at the end of the season, similar to how Nagant got dropped by surprise.), more pros, even Mei Hatsume seeing as she'd be the most unique type of character they've ever released, a student that isn't in the hero course. Popular characters and variety can go hand in hand.
TLDR: There are way more alluring choices to pick from than Jiro. (Preferably Villains, since the last villain release we got was during season 14).
