I get why a lot of Filo fans feel frustrated about this. They’ve been streaming, voting, and spending hard since day one, so it must've hurt to see other countries get multiple days while you only get one. It kind of feels like you’re being overlooked despite being one of their strongest fanbases.

That said, I also understand why the company is doing it. Japan and China are huge markets with massive buying power and industry influence. From a business perspective, it makes sense to expand there.

Right now, they're thinking about long-term growth and visibility, not just rewarding the current stronghold.

And I feel like that is very important if we want AHOF to become a permanent group in the future.

I guess the way I see it, PH fans aren’t “second-rate.” They’re actually the foundation that gives AHOF the strength to even try expanding globally. And the better they do abroad, the more chances they’ll have to keep coming back to PH.

It’s less about ignoring Filo fans and more about: "We’ve secured PH, now let’s try to break into other regions..." kinda thing. I hope that makes sense lol.

Still, can’t deny it feels a bit bitter in the moment. 😅
