#So yes my official stance is that Alm shouldn’t be getting too many alts

Unpopular opinion of the day:
It’s shameful how we don’t see a lot of Valentia characters having alts or even Resplendents.
The last time a banner that featured Valentia characters was the Valentines one a few years back.
I think Saber was the last time a Valentia character received a Resplendent.
I kinda wish to see Genny getting another alt. Poor girlie was shafted hard and while Amagaitaro wasn’t bad with her base and picnic alt, I kinda want to see other artists tackle Genny, like Saine (Resplendent Palla’s artist) or even Yo Kanzawa. Plus it gives Eden more work with her.
Same can be said for Lukas too, even if Greg’s performance for him is pretty mid at best and having other artists tackle him as well.
Answering this one now that I’m back from vacation, and also because I’m 95% certain this new banner is going to be a Valentia banner (because again I KNOW they’re gonna pad it out with Ascended Peony, Triandra, and maybe Ginnungagap (did I get that right?)). No you’re right, the Valentia characters don’t get enough love, though technically the last time we had Valentia characters get an alt was… I think Easter with Luthier (and Sonya with… Tharja. I still think it should have been Aversa, with having Aversa doting on Sonya like an older sister, reminding Sonya of Marla and Hestia).
But yeah, if you’re not Alm, Celica, Faye, or Delthea, good luck getting any attention. Still bugs me that Leon hasn’t gotten any attention and it was a MIRACLE that Luthier got his alt. Especially because the other part of the Valentia cast is WAY more interesting than at least Delthea and Faye.
I’m still incredibly thankful to PenekoR for that Deen alt, holy shit that was some fantastic outfit design. It hit that sweet spot of giving the female fanbase a mature man to appreciate without his design being TOO fanservicey.
I’m sure Genny will get a Resplendent soon, I think Kousei Horiguchi would be a great artist.
And… even if I don’t like his performances, Greg getting paid for more gigs will always be a good thing. So if Luka’s gets another alt, I may gripe a little bit but that’s it.
