Ramonu: A seemingly "old lady" who only cares is racing. Her painting refences can be weird.
Still in Love: Has a split persona between timid yet recluse girl and the one who a "hunger" of defeating other umas which probably a yandere too.
Gentildonna: A gorilla lady with strength that surpasses most umas.

Surely Tact-chan doesn't need to be this unique yes?

With a fanatical obsession for all things onsen...

This is inside a restaurant, likely Yoshinoya. They always give the transparent cups of water, and the box for chopsticks on the right is recognizable albeit not quite the same as the one in Kawasaki (see asset #21431270)

To be fair he has a lot of "adopted" children.

Having two kids is great

Ei looks proud

Esto es canon para Scaramuche

We will never stop loving or missing her! 😢

The artist did it for 2023 and is starting this year too so if anyone likes these, there are tons to upload

The full version is on YouTube, 【手描きMV】ブルアカ×お気に召すまま.

Very nice.
I kinda wanna start playing Blue Archive now

I love this! Only complaint is thematically, not enough shiroko.

...Huh, guess that bus actually did arrive after all.

I feel like they could combine.

And that honestly feels like it'd be a cool boss fight.

omg Subaru I love

Why won't Hoyoverse flesh out their relationship more? Why do they just focus on trust events between the mc and other characters (such as Jane)?

Sadly because they know sailing ships makes money. And that there are players who wants all the waifus/husbandos for themselves.
So they give you a teaser for relationships but don't dive deeper to satisfy people on both ends. H3I use to just straight up go into the relationships but with Genshin and beyond they learned this method.

In gacha games there must always be ambiguity as to who a character is into, so people who prefer that character with the MC/themselves are satisfied too. They are often the money-makers, after all.
The only exception I'm aware of is FGO, but that's because that game uses historical figures and as such some canon relationships are inevitable.

yeah, I get what you mean. However, correct me if I am wrong, but wouldn't they make money anyway if they appease the part of the community that prefers (for example) Seth and Jane instead of Wise (mc) and Jane? Tbf, I've seen WAY more Seth x Jane artwork than Wise (mc) x Jane artwork.

Ambiguity in gacha games is such a pain...

Correcting you not because you're wrong, but because your way of thinking is wrong. You see artwork, artwork is made by artists, unless a great majority of the player base are artists making fanart, your logic wouldn't stand.
Two, look at the amount of fanart Jane Doe has then compare it to how much Seth has then compare it to how much they have together. Most of Seth's art is either as a group or with Jane, but most of Jane's art don't have Seth anywhere in them. Meaning Jane herself is more popular than the pairing. At least 3 times as much going by danbooru stats.
Final point, not everyone sees the MC as a stand-in for themselves. I did NOT choose Wise as my MC, I chose Belle. Why? Because Belle is cute, not to self-insert. In Genshin, I chose Lumine for the same reason, if I'm gonna stare at the nicely shaped rear end of a character for hours on end it best belong to someone cute. In Star Rail, I choose......Caelus, simply because his coolness beat out Stelle's cuteness (man has a nice tush, no homo just respect). Point being, artwork featuring Wise I see as.....artwork featuring Wise, not "player character" the ones with the blank or no face to me better show as artwork with a self-insert.
So yes they will make money if they appease a PART of the community that likes shipping, but that part isn't the whole and you best believe there's more non-shippers than shippers (silent majority thing) who make them far more money keeping the ambiguity. Because I personally didn't even know who Seth was until this specfic fanart and me drawing him in game but you best believe I've known about Jane even before her release.

FGO just doesn't give a damn, if they want to do something they just do it. They keep to canon relationships while also saying "Yeah, but he/she would definitely try to sleep with you if given the chance."

Aww yoir adorable Nishi-Chan 😍

Aight, this one got me.

I mean role-playing it is safer than what actually happened.

Also, why is it Christmas already!?

This is honestly a very slick Gundam design.

Can't help but love it.
