What should I change? Is there anyone I should consider pulling? Generally, I’m more focused on new characters than reruns
I’ll be pulling:
(1) M1 Harumasa
(2) M0 Dialyn
(3) M0 Yuzuha
For the selector, I’m choosing between investing in Lucia or grabbing Trigger, but I’m leaning towards Lucia to secure my Silly clears for a few more months :)
I like playing Harumasa with Seed, but also plan on grabbing Cissia. Both Astra and Trigger would be nice 3rd slots for these teams which is why I’m apprehensive. Sunna works, but she may be more linked to Pyrois.
The remaining things I’m interested in are Miyabi W1, wind support, Norma on rerun, and possibly Remi/Velina on rerun if nothing else interests me.
Is Astra M0 still worth nowadays or should I grab M1 Seed?
i was doing all my evals na because the popup while trying to access my courses was so annoying 😭 i gave my PE prof mostly if not all "not applicable" kasi i dont enter my pe class expecting to learn about the political and economic state of the world... i'm overthinking now tho because i realized on my next eval that not applicable is marked (0), so idk if i did this right
i think i can manage org chem, physics, and thesis in the same term naman ,, but internship? are the classes for phys and chem nighttime ba? this looks like such a scheduling nightmare
If anyone would like to just discourage me from running Pyrois with Seed, I’m open to that, but so far I’ve been enjoying playing them with Nicole. At the moment, I’ve running Seed on Dawn’s Bloom and Pyrois on Astral Voice, but I’m farming the new set and will probably have Seed hold Astral Voice? I’ll figure it out.
More important to me rn is figuring out who to pull next. I missed all banners from Astra’s first to Seed’s rerun, so I don’t have updated stunners/supports. My only stunners are Qingyi, Lighter, and Lycaon.
I’m considering Dialyn too, but my Silly team is my only team that can 3* at the moment, so I’m eyeing Remielle for Miyabi and may not get Dialyn if she’s next patch
I’m a returning player. I missed everything from Astra to the last few days Seed’s rerun, so I’m missing a lot of good support units.
I tried Harumasa, Qingyi, and Nicole against Defiler, and I just barely cracked 2 stars. I’m using 4pc Moonlight Lullaby on Nicole. Qingyi is still on Shockstar. I’m farming YT + KOTS since I also just got Silly, but I can’t seem to get CR rolls on KOTS lol
Is my Harumasa build alright? I’m not sure if my ATK & disc 5 are fine. I’ve been tuning Branch & Blade Song, but I haven’t tried getting specific stats for Haru disc 5 since I don’t know what’s best.
If I wanted to play Harumasa with Seed, which stunner should I pull next? Norma? Trigger? Having caught up with what everyone’s using right now, I think picking up Dialyn is a non-question, but I’m not sure if she’s also BiS for Haru-Seed.

Also—and this is not about Harumasa—do you think I have to replace my Miyabi-Yanagi-Rina team too? Maybe I just don’t play it well/have a bad build, but their numbers are worse than my Harumasa team which seems wrong…
I completely get wanting to keep the calendar consistent. As a trimester-based university, changes to the calendar are felt heavily. However, I feel anxious that the issues of the last enlistment may not have been resolved.
The first thing I thought was maybe we could propose having another mock enlistment. However, it might not be enough to imitate actual enlistment. I participated in the first mock enlistment session, and I remember the test site being laggy, but definitely not to the extent of real enlistment. Pages in the test site loaded slowly, but buttons weren't straight-up disappearing or going blank like in the real one.
I guess one thing to note with the last enlistment is mock enlisters had priority. Now that there will no longer be mock enlister priority, I think this could allow us to revert to having two sessions for different IDs. One reason the site was so laggy definitely could've been that COB and CLA are just never meant to enlist at the same time.
One non-lag related issue I also hope will be addressed was the lack of a remarks & room column in the course finder. I understand that the information there could be found in different ways, but it is so much more convenient to just have it. It's the easiest way to know what sport is played in a certain PE class, or whether the class is conducted FOL, or whether the class is an English section for a GE. Course finder doesn't permit people to add GEs to hypothetical schedules when they're full, so how are people supposed to know the class modality/room number if a GE section is at 15/15 at the end of enlistment day 1? Students need to shift priority schedules all the time. There is no way I have the time to add every single section in every potential GE I'm going to take just so that I can take note of their modality/room in my personal spreadsheet.
Another issue was the lack of an add-to-cart functionality, which made people start looking at animo.sys with nostalgia lenses. In animo.sys' defense, though, our final enlistment on that site was the smoothest I've ever experienced. I honestly could get behind doing away with the add-to-cart feature, but only if the site will actually let us see the buttons during enlistment. Evidently, requiring everyone to make their schedules from scratch and on the spot poses issues with site loading.
Going back to the calendar, though, I guess one perk of this is that having a two-week break doesn't necessarily mean we have no backup plan for enlistment. Admin can still extend enlistment by one week if needed. And if it isn't needed, yippee! We're back to normal programming. I'd still be sad though because this means is i won't be swimming very blissfully with the turtles 🐢🐢😓 My watch records my heart rate, and I swear. My average heart rate rises even more after finals because I start thinking about enlistment. I guess we'll just need to embrace one sad break and pray it won't be made sadder by Archers Hub?
