Oh my, this was a pretty exciting time, what a Perfect, Elegant and Masterful turn of events!

When the JP Live Stream came around, I was so excited to see both the return of the Genics and this new Story, which is Hifuu: Code "LR?" EX1 and I am not disappointed!

My initial worries about this were the fact that Hifuu was also where we saw what would go on to be known as Pure Festival/L0g enemies, most notably Sanae, the only playable one. There was also Kanako and Suwako there too, and I was worried we might have to see more of that here again, especially if it was a Sakuya variant. However, I am very happy to say that there is none of that to worry about here, and speaking of Sakuya variants, we actually see the return of the mastermind on a dinosaur, which is the Lady of Spacetime! Of course, there are more stuff to go over, but obviously I am a biased Sakuya simp, which I am not ashamed of!

When maintenance ended, I ended up briefly noticing on Discord I was being pinged all of a sudden. It didn't look like I make any news mistakes thankfully, but then I thought "Oh, are they going to release a L0g Sakuya or something like that?" and prepared for the worst. However, I am so happy to see Mastermind Sakuya on her dinosaur again, but then to actually see her as an enemy was kind of insane for me too! I was also happy I didn't spoil myself for it either, and I even ended up jumping for joy due to being so excited about it all! As of right now, it is impossible to play her stage on Lunatic so I can't check if she has a Last Word available to view yet, but I did at least manage to figure out both Spell Cards are All-Targeting. I still don't think this is too much of an indicator in terms of when Masterminds in general will be playable, because of Dragon Marisa not releasing despite being an enemy since the end of 2022 (at least for JP) so yeah, we'll see when that time comes, but let's hope it's not too soon because my cubes are in a state of crisis and I'm scared of losing too many cubes on L80 Patchouli (if she comes on July 8th)...

Ok, enough Sakuya talk. There are other appearances too, such as the new Outside World Satori, the return of the Outside World versions of Kanako and Aya, and then the last stage being quite the Genic moment (with a new BGM that could potentially be LM1 Maribel +with Mugetsu's theme, but we will see), it all being wrapped up with Renko and Maribel in different outfits! How many of these are there now? I've lost count, rip.

Well about those Genics, I did a mini-showcase with the Guest unit here, but I think there will be a dedicated showcase video for her, as well as a VS Divergent Spirits Stage against Mugetsu (LM1) too, where I think her Last Word might be available to find despite her and Maribel not being available yet (maybe next month). I'm not fully versed on LR1 Renko + Gengetsu but her Last Word being Sun + Light like a certain other LR1 Renko (except Yin instead of Yang) is funny. I'll figure that out in time though!

I really hope that next month's stream announced both LM1 Maribel + Mugetsu as well as some kind of EX2 (since this is an EX1) which would look at Maribel's perspective as I am assuming this is Renko's point of view with Gengetsu.

I think that's all I have to say here though, hope you all enjoy this one as much as I did playing it, I hope you all enjoy playing this on Global too, and now for the timestamps below!
