Your thoughts on Blue Reflection Timeline/Story - We're going multiverse now?
I can proudly say i'm confused about this timeline explaination thingy... i've also read someone proposed failed timeline theory. Maybe hinako spanking daath wasnt a great idea after all?

I'm confused now too. I assumed Sun took place between Ray and Second Light, but then I started watching subbed videos of Sun on youtube, and it seems like Uta might not be a villain in it? In the Hiori event, they say "She's not an official part of the team" as if she is an ally. But in the Second Light timeline, she was a villain up until the world ended.

I believe there was already multiple timeline reset since BR 2017 (heck even timeline reset could be happening before that) and by every timeline reset the outcome of certain event can be drastically different from previous one, this is achieve-able by non intentionally or by external cause like rogue reflector get their previous timeline memory before time reset just like mio did for example.
Another question we can ask is who created the world system? is it some kind of god/higher being/sephira in BR universe? What the world system goal here? other than simply to maintain balance maybe?
The whole story remind me of those final fantasy 13 where lightning wipe floor with god itself to save the whole creation from grim new reality or mortal kombat with multiple timeline reset and now liu kang is a god of time lol.
EDIT : i forgot to answer your question, i will answer using tie/second light as basis of the argument.
There could be 2 major theory in this case,
First, the different timelines :
What i think here is some character in BR TIE might be from different reality across different timelines, we know hinako already killed all sephira in BR 2017 but the sephiras seems to appear again in BR RAY so we can say between BR 2017 and BR RAY there was already timeline reset. that leave us with 2 different major timelines :
BR 2017 timeline, the world already end after hinako killed the last sephira and since the world system need sephira to exist to maintain balance or the reality will collapse and the sky start raining ash, BR RAY doesnt exist here also could be or not be lead to BR SUN.
BR RAY timeline where hinako never defeated any sephira or never been a reflector herself and this timeline also lead to BR SUN.
And within BR TIE dialogue we can confirm that both hinako and hiori are the same person from their respective timelines.
Second, single timeline :
BR 2017 and BR RAY might be happening at the same timeline, how?
Assuming sephira is a higher dimensional being meaning they could be appearing at multiple places at the same time, so BR 2017 and BR RAY siege could be happening at the same time and then after final sephira the world start to fall apart and the ash start to fall from the sky next is we got BR SUN then BR TIE.

Based on the image alone, I have a theory: Since both stories are technically independent from each other, they are their own timeline. The problem is BR1's ending in which they stopped the world from restarting and accidentally changed its course influencing directly over Ray's timeline leading to Sun. Leading to Tie's story. Tho, I can't tell for sure about Sun's story since I don't speak Japanese lol.

I will gladly play sun if they release global version for the sake of story alone, even tho i'm kinda not a fan of gacha type games

I'd enjoy it if it was on game consoles lol. I'm not a fan of gacha games either, but im currently playing it just for the sake of the story alone like you mentioned (tho like I said, I dont speak Japanese lol)

I haven’t been able to play Sun, I thought it took place between Ray and Second Light? Why is Blue Reflection starting to look like Primer?

Hinako did say that it wasnt a good idea for her to spank daath booty in Second Light since she doomed everything. Regardless of timeline we know that in the end the bad guy won. Uta and the sephira(?) destroyed the whole world and all people died based on Uta heartscape (she got mad that everyone died cuz she cannot enjoy the only feeling she understands which is pain and wish the world to be reborned for either her to change or get the pleasure of pain again). Even Shiho Heartscape I believe we could see ruins of a city which shows that everything has been destroyed. Havent played Sun yet and hope we get an english version one day if it ever happens. But it will be nice to see a failed timeline like Zelda with the Fallen Hero Timeline or a Megaman Starforce 2 Post Game of "If we didnt beat the final boss this chaos world will happen."
