I was going through some recent Selebus answers, and found these, which Zuko hadn't covered. Take it for what it is:

Spoiler: This one was for you, aramaug

Now, there are suddenly fewer evident for me believing Selebus didn't keep peeping here. Not acknowledging any important prediction from others was so typical of him nevertheless.

The answer he gave for Letter T was still ambiguous, though. The only title fitting with his reference coming to my mind is "T Is For Time (Trees & Threes)" which has nothing to do with general Teacher speculation everyone seems to have with possible exception of Aramaug and I.

Despite that, from the triad of title the letter T is more likely connected with gods and Users. Being run-of-mill as it is, the event itself has the very same white cat we saw in Trinity Part I. I think Aramaug has posted elsewhere that Makoto in here is the same narrator we had at the start and white cat presence represents a strong implication.

Edit: On Kaori's animation, the ending is haunting because it also feels like a glimpse into the purity route for her:

And there's two animations coming, so two grindable sex scenes. Now it could be a new position for Ami and Niki (Sara is kinda just here this update, unless she's following on from Sana's sex which would be timely, Ayane already has a new position in her dorm so more to her is just greedy)
OR I'M BACK IN BUSINESS WITH BOTH NORIKO AND MAYA SEX SCENES WOOOO. If we are getting Maya's lust grinding, it would make sense at this time to ease in with non-sex acts. Surely Noriko's gotta start with dicking though right?

Thinking about it again, we can actually read a little further into this thanks to the animations. If we make the assumption that these aren't just extra poses for girls, we can use the changed changelogs to read into things. 2 characters would have been chosen for animations based on the old plan, and since the animation count didn't change for the revised changelog those people must still be getting events in that update. Based on previous trends, people get 2 invite events when they're introduced to the concept (Nodoka is a weirdo who introduced herself to Ami with sex)

Spoiler: 0.50 comparison

Based on the old changelogs, the people on that list who aren't invitable yet are

• Maya
• Noriko
• Yumi
• Yuki
• Wakana

We can likely remove Wakana since she was pulled from the update, and Yumi because she only has one event (She woulcn't pull a Nodoka). The question now is whether it's Maya or Yuki is getting one. I want to say Yuki's a horrid choice for the slot, since she'll be rebounding from having cancer and hiding from the world to wanting to suck Sensei's dick or something. The problem is Maya is in her weird spot and we're not sure if Selebus is willing to go there yet with Akira. Plot pacing wise she needs invite events sooner rather than later since she still has story beats to hit before purity route, otherwise we're poisoning purity route with events we already know which feels like shit storytelling to me. I also wouldn't feel too bad if neither of them got invites and someone else just got an extra pose. It would be fitting after Kirin got her extra scene.

Based specifically on the changes, and the old 0.50 changelog however...

Noriko loses to Niki, Noriko loses in the polls and, now Noriko loses 2 whole events. I'm one more Noriko shaft away from coming out of retirement.

1 event, but don't you worry, I think Noriko's hard set in getting invite events and lust grinding in 0.50 since her old 0.50 log would have had 2 events (and at least one animation) the perfect budget for invite events. Whatever her virginity scene would have been in 0.49, getting her away from the rest of her class doesn't need to cost an event now.

All other paths just led to Sensei getting raped. I guess they do to Sesnei what he done to them.

Based on Sel's past development history, animations in 0.50 will be for scenarios introduced in 0.49 or earlier. Animations are never added in the same update the deed is done in the first time. In fact, because he yanked planned animations from multiple updates over the last several months, we're actually behind on animations at the moment.

Sana and Imani have yet to get penetrative sex animations. Technically, Kaori and Io are also left out, but for context reasons will likely remain that way. I'm sure I'm missing some. I guess Miku would count, but I don't think we'll go straight from THAT to a repeatable sex scene. Maki Anal also has yet to get an animation.

Rin is a dark horse, since she's getting an isolated scene in 0.49, in what is otherwise an ensemble event chain, which signals something potentially momentous that could then be repeatable and animated in 0.50. Even so, my guess would still be Imani and Sana.

Noriko would still count on 0.49 theory but that would stop the other animation going to the rest of that list. That would make it a extra pose for either Ami or Niki, or someone gets a touching scene during dorm wars of all things and gets an extra sex pose referencing it.

Imani already has penetrative sex in the bar (and actually counts as an animation added in the same update the deed was done for the first time in ), and no event space in 0.50 for it to be her via invite events. Unless he refactors the bar menu I doubt anyone is getting more than 1 animation there each. (Imani but...sexually. Imani but not in the toilet this time etc)

I doubt it's Io or Rin based on being last minute 0.49 additions

Kaori animation was pretty good. Really. At least this animation was better, than all previous ones.
Also we need Kaori as his student now...

Now, there are suddenly fewer evident for me believing Selebus didn't keep peeping here. Not acknowledging any important prediction from others was so typical of him nevertheless.

The answer he gave for Letter T was still ambiguous, though. The only title fitting with his reference coming to my mind is "T Is For Time (Trees & Threes)" which has nothing to do with general Teacher speculation everyone seems to have with possible exception of Aramaug and I.

Despite that, from the triad of title the letter T is more likely connected with gods and Users. Being run-of-mill as it is, the event itself has the very same white cat we saw in Trinity Part I. I think Aramaug has posted elsewhere that Makoto in here is the same narrator we had at the start and white cat presence represents a strong implication.

I can annoy Selebus some more here if the Teacher gang is wrong. Because there is another abstract connection between time trees and threes that leads back to Sekai. Because I immediately think of this event when I read the title "Time (Trees & Threes)"

Spoiler: there are trees and 3's and memories of the time before time stood still

And also that event title ("Time (Trees & Threes)") is one of the events where he...Well...lets get Miku to explain.

Spoiler: A word from Miku.

At the start he makes a vague reference to why he does this. What made him this way...Sekai.

Spoiler

And then the event ends with obvious Sekai references

Spoiler: I love you so much

And the fact he goes a bit strange after hearing it kind of implies that he also makes that connection.

Spoiler: maybe my life isn't mine

But also, if it is "Time" I'm fine with that. It still leads back to Sekai in many ways, which is the main thing that I think the Teacher gang thought was important. At least that's what I think is important. She is, abstractly at least, what made Time stand still for Akira. Both Psychologically, and likely a large part of what caused this world that Time forgot. (was it called that once? I guess it doesn't mater. The point still stands).

But honestly if he did not intend for the connection between this line "Her name begins with the letter T." and the following image to be drawn by readers that's a bit silly to me.

Spoiler: Teacher

You could probably make the argument that she is just an aspect of Time, the past, etc. As it relates to Akira. But if that's the case, why specifically say "Her name" and not Their name or It's name to refer to Time. So that It would not be confused with a specific and highly plot important "Her".

Spoiler: Her name begins with the letter T

And now we have direct conformation that its not a "super mysterious friend whose name started with the letter T". There is basically nothing else it can be other than Sekai herself.

Unless he is actually insane and we are supposed to make a 3rd layer inverse "pepe silvia" style connection to The World Itself Through Sekai meaning World. And thus back to Time because of the nature of the world. But if we start doing that and you give me enough time I can probably think of a way for T to actually be referring to a Turkmenistani Trombonist Titled Teymur Tikhonova.

 

[shmurfer]

Ever since i discovered Blue Archive i cant take those words anymore xd Everytime i see them there are flashes on my mind with the word "Cunny" and a lot of text that i hope some day forget about it

Well if it makes you feel better, that kind of talk is exactly what he was referencing.

 

[LoveWhiteHairedGirl]

30 year old Yumi looking fine too

Though I would like her to change a hairstyle.

Tsukasa never gets Tsukioka's boobs though (some people will be happy about that)

I am not happy about that :'(

All other paths just led to Sensei getting raped. I guess they do to Sesnei what he done to them.

Dude! I was eating and I barely endured not to laugh, which made me choke! XDDDD

Not going to lie, i want to see those alternate paths... Sana onee-chan would be interesting to watch...

Sel is taking a month off after whatever he is doing right now with fanfest.

Is it one month or two cause it looks like both April and June are being skipped?

 

[shmurfer]

This month was 'skipped' to produce Lilfest content. Sel will use April to develop 0.49 and release May 1st. He will then take May off, then use June to produce 0.50 and release July 1st

That said, do we know of a japanese spelling for the city? Wouldn't be surprised if Sel took a page out of Nisio Isin and made some shit up that actually means "A world that time forgot" and it reads Kumon-mi.

Nah you're all wrong about what T actually stood for, it's the most obvious one.

Ok so I wasn't going crazy, was very confused when I saw the July release and was only told he was taking April off to do 0.49 and no one else was reacting to June being skipped. I remember seeing something about the date being pushed and May being the new release but more then likely missed any posts about June being skipped as well.
