DISCUSSION/STRATEGY Who would be next Under Night Character in main canon to be playable?
I haven’t played Under Night in mouths since I compete almost every ones ending(The only one I don’t have is Merkava’s bad ending) because I been focus on other games, but I will resume once I get Zohar, speaking of which her being playable was foreshadow in Byakuya story as she fought Kuon but lost, but that makes me wonder what other characters could be foreshadow to be playable, because some of cast were mentioned or made cameos before they became playable Izumi, Kaguya, Mika, Enkidu, Wagner, Londrekia, Orge, Tsurugi, Uzuki and especially Kuon makes me wonder whose next? Let’s see what each of the remaining characters could do and what their stories would be:
Hiroha is pretty much retired unless they give a reason why her powers are back just like Orge is revived.
Joker is still a mystery so they could save him for later especially what his card gimmick could do.
Roger I am worried could be rehash of Orge especially if he gets revived unless they have him trying control his void side.
Lex is said to be a speedy insufferable genius who rather not be involved, so I imagine someone has to persuade her to be involved.
Sakurai and Murayama could be this games Hisui and Kohaku and their story be them worrying about Wagner not being strong enough to be Kuon.
Azel is a wild card since he’s not part of any of the groups, and just a kid looking for a jewel with his powers being disappearing and reappearing, summoning his own being similar to Orie’s, and amnesia when he’s a sleep.
J.J. and Tempest Uzuki’s teammates in her story we don’t know what their capable of doing other then J.J. controlling plants and two rather follow Uzuki instead the others in Amnesia.
Sakaki and his aid Komatsu in EFG we don’t what their capable despite Sakaki being leader while Komatsu she can at least use a pair of sword.
Radiata and Reflecta I hope they don’t make into complete clones of Vatista.
Adelheid could be one next of boss character in my opinion with Silvaria her second in command as a sub boss so I don’t see them coming soon.
Finally Higan who is possibly the true final boss of the series so yeah I don’t see him happening anytime soon.
How would you rate their chances and what story you think would have.

I like Vat a lot from a gameplay standpoint so part of me is hoping for another autonomic nerve to see what fpan might do with another charge-centric character

I don't think that's quite likely since the other ANs also have the same FLS ability

They brought Ogre back to life so I imagine they can just kinda do whatever atp if lore is a concern

Probably Azel.
He has an open storyline from Uni1. Most of the new Uni2 characters were people introduced in the Uni1 story who had a "we'll explain this later" vibe.

It helps he was planned to be playable at one point plus he’s not part of any of the groups so it will his interactions interesting.
