Yeah, it's more wishful thinking on my part at this point. Or lamenting a missed opportunity, I guess. I called them dumb for not using it last time as well.

Personal closeness doesn't matter when it comes to formal events like a branch-wide concert, which is why I said it'd be a feasible alternative. It's not even that far compared to Japan, since GB's around New England, Altare's in NJ(?), and Ruze is probably also northeast or Mid-Atlantic. I think both of them are on VR headsets, so getting mocap data from Altare's setup would probably be easier to add into a concert from a home setup. Also, they seem like they'd prefer it over a Japan arc.
>Everyone else
Japan makes more sense for them, but that's to be expected. Especially since Hakka can't get a visa, and Japan is closer by for Axel, Jurard, and Octavio.
So 5/10, but honestly? Being able to cram half the branch in your basement is still pretty good. And an improvement over what we've been getting so far. Also keeps budgets in check if they're doing domestic flights and living in the idol dungeon instead of international flights and accomodations.
