As the title suggests, should there be new chartags for these versions of the cast? They are considered different characters altogether, at least officially. Something like yohane (genjitsu no yohane).

I for one expect to see the Genjitsu no Yohane versions in the characters' main tags. They're basically the same characters, even if costumes and lore are different -- somewhat like how we tag Shikinami Asuka Langley as Souryuu Asuka Langley.
They do have unique costumes and such, but if they have their own tags, they should still be under the main tags IMO, e.g. imply yohane_(genjitsu_no_yohane) -> tsushima_yoshiko.
Searching the regular character tags along with genjitsu_no_yohane works pretty well already though. Would new tags do anything that doesn't?
Yes, implications go without saying. I'd also expect the main tags to have them show up too.
It is true that two-tag search with the copytag works well enough. I can't really think of anything else aside from their costumes to justify new tags. However, the howto:character wiki does say that alternate identities are reason enough to make new tags, hence why I was curious about them not existing.
I'm in favour for a new character tag tbh. Even it's start as a spin-off project, Genjitsu no Yohane literally has a separate web and publicly linked on their official website alongside other Love Live! entry. It's also has two different games on Steam which has a difference story than Love Live! Sunshine!!. So I think that's should be enough reason to make them a new character than their School Idol counterpart.

Having a separate website and website entry is hardly a reason to do anything on our side, we often don't follow random corporate/marketing decisions.
The characters are pretty distinct though, I'm definitely in favor of creating qualified tags that imply the actual character. Looking at the website, character names aren't "full" names, so we'd end up with a shorter name, like caps7 described. I think we should add qualified utility aliases though, unless autocomplete catches everything for every character:
imply yohane_(genjitsu_no_yohane) -> tsushima_yoshiko alias tsushima_yoshiko_(genjitsu_no_yohane) -> yohane_(genjitsu_no_yohane)

I don't really know how useful those aliases would be, since theoretically, typing their first name + genjitsu/yohane would most likely get autocomplete to work.
I'll wait a bit before actually making the tags, just in case.
BUR #25185 has been approved by @nonamethanks.
create implication chika_(genjitsu_no_yohane) -> takami_chika
create implication yohane_(genjitsu_no_yohane) -> tsushima_yoshiko
create implication hanamaru_(genjitsu_no_yohane) -> kunikida_hanamaru
create implication dia_(genjitsu_no_yohane) -> kurosawa_dia
create implication ruby_(genjitsu_no_yohane) -> kurosawa_ruby
create implication kanan_(genjitsu_no_yohane) -> matsuura_kanan
create implication riko_(genjitsu_no_yohane) -> sakurauchi_riko
create implication you_(genjitsu_no_yohane) -> watanabe_you
create implication mari_(genjitsu_no_yohane) -> ohara_mari
Out of all the Genjitsu no Yohane posts, I found only two exceptions to the copytag + chartag search...
Anyway, here are the implications.
