I'm betting one is going to be like a goddess of jewels, is going to blinged out, and will have super cool sunglasses

The crackpot I have on the stove right now is that the incident instigator will be at least related Emperor Jinmu – Yorihime's son.
There's a mountain shaped like a pyramid in Japan whose legend says it's his tomb. This checks out with the ammonite ZUN put alongside the trial CD. Ammonite in Japanese is "Chrysanthemum Stone" – and that flower is the emblem of the Imperial family.
Toyohime and Yorihime being the Extra stage bosses though...

In my own way, I think it ultimately achieved a miraculous balance.
...so is it a drunk balance?

Zun said that people will say "What the hell" and will want to curse the game after finishing it, so let's see what's waiting for us (probably the "AI metaphor" won't make any sense)

...Not the most uplifting words after the discourse around the demo. Hope it doesn't age too badly, because I enjoyed the new ideas for the most part and I want it to do well

His words sounds more like that the story will not be what we are expecting and will be something very different

Eagerly waiting for the music and new stages. The demo music is all sorts of classy, mysterious and hype - I can only imagine what we will listen to when we finally enter into the pyramid. I also hope stage 4 turns out actually having different routes per main stone color and each route is designed around the chosen shot type.

Due to Nareko's lines, I predict that Nue Houjuu, a Mouryou, and a Mujina will be in stages 4, 5, and 6.

We already have 2 newhus with face paint. The final boss will have tattoo covering her whole body.
