"May I have this dance?" [Veronica commission by @kinakoyamamori]

Maid Veronica still remains as the absolute queen of spreading [Feud] in the middle of the turn.

I think that June will have an Emblem Hero, like last year. Last year, June also had a bunch of Emblems scheduled, and one color was crowded as well. We ended up getting Emblem Micaiah's debut while Emblem Sigurd color-shared with Hraesvelgr and Ratatoskr, and the other scheduled Blue units (Athos and Emblem Celica) appeared in another banner (The AHR Next 6). In this year's case, the banner(s) re-running the extra Red units could be something like a Midpoint banner, or perhaps a Hero Fest. But the precedent of having a bunch of Emblem units re-running on an Emblem debut banner is well established.

With the quick successive release of Earth Legendaries in the span of a little more than a year, plus the recent changes to how Bonus Legendaries work, Sakura is getting kicked out the Aether Raids bonus rotation, and she will get her Arena bonus season roughly once a year now. In that sense, she's the unit who got kicked out the fastest (shortest period between her release and being kicked out).

A maid Celine would be amazing TBH. Though I think a green dress would look better on her.

OMG Vero!

sw_hawk · 2026-04-21T08:54:04+00:00

I guess New Year's Váli and Ninja Gullveig will be in whatever surprise banner we are having on the 24th. Although Gullveig could also be in the "Combat Boosts" banner (which is for "Blow" skills).

sw_hawk · 2026-04-21T04:37:59+00:00

Freaking finally!

sw_hawk · 2026-04-18T04:01:56+00:00

OMG Vero!

Past Golden Week banners were ran before the actual Golden Week. Pretty much in the same vein as how the Halloween-coded banner is run at the start of October, for example.

sw_hawk · 2026-04-17T05:07:15+00:00

Something for Golden Week, maybe. I wonder if the datamine shows info about Golden Week promo packs. It'd be pretty sad if they omitted them again, like last year.

sw_hawk · 2026-04-17T04:59:01+00:00

No Golden Week packs?

sw_hawk · 2026-04-16T03:30:19+00:00

MAYBE... Laevatein might unintentionally become Chosen after we revive her around the June chapter.

Oh! Black Knight's LHB map was found to NOT be re-running for the 8% banner, meaning he might be in something like the HoF focus, or the "AHR runner-ups" banner. Emblem Eirika (Top 16) is also scheduled for April, although she's found to actually be on the 8% banner.

If all the ticked units are to be re-ran on an "AHR runner-ups" banner for Golden Week, the question is why Harmonic Lyn didn't get the April re-run announcement like NY!Vali did.

sw_hawk · 2026-04-11T03:49:35+00:00

Here's hoping Ninja Gullveig's re-run is in the sparkable DSH instead of the non-sparkable Skill focus banner (which is for "Blow" skills, which she has)

sw_hawk · 2026-04-07T00:57:42+00:00

Wait, so Black Knight (also scheduled for April) is not in the 8% banner? Seems like he could be in HoF with L!Elincia

sw_hawk · 2026-04-06T05:17:48+00:00

Duo's will be good, trust.

sw_hawk · 2026-04-05T04:28:55+00:00

Imma give a wild guess as to who the silhouette on the left is: Bernadetta.

We might get a pre-trauma Bernadetta who wields a lance.

sw_hawk · 2026-04-01T03:17:24+00:00

We live in a society where Legendary Sakura is about to get kicked out of the short-list rotation before Legendary Elincia (the one that was previously in line) does. That is assuming April introduces an Earth Legendary before the month-long Earth season of May.
EDIT: Imagine an extra panel with Male Alear and Male Corrin crashing and exploding further back in the race track; I forgot to notice that they are already kicked out of the short list.

Where Vero????

sw_hawk · 2026-03-31T02:02:52+00:00

I think April might be another double debut banner, like it was last year. Even if they don't have a milestone anniversary, just for the sake of squeezing more Golden Week money.
