how many acquisitions are you expecting, sirs? I think I need to curate my picks even more ruthlessly than before

she'll be missed, hope she does some more wealthy hag scenarios before she's gone. her floppy hat outfit in JUR-122 was pure kino
Koto is a nice SOD transfer/poaching too but a completely different vibe

for me, hags have a much warmer and more savoury fermented aroma profile

any sourness would be mellowed and no longer sharp, more like traditional Japanese pickled vegetables ("tsukemono") without the acidity and astringency of pure vinegar. an additional but parallel flavour may be the faintly sour starchiness of well-chewed rice, udon noodles, or yeasty bread.

any sweetness would also have an aged tang, like dried/preserved fruits — especially of those popular in East Asia like plums/umeboshi, orange peels, persimmons, jujubes, goji berries, etc. there would be no sugary brightness of candy but instead a more syrupy, molasses-like sweetness.

any fishiness wouldn't have the vigorous high-sillage intensity of fresh ocean produce but be more like dashi stock or slow-cooked seafood stews containing dried scallops and abalone for a richer, deeper flavour.

any saltiness would have a lot of added umami depth too, in line with high quality shoyu or very aged miso — mature and multi-dimensional — as opposed to being merely briny. there may even be a grainy earthy base note of barley tea providing further texture to the aromas.

No, at least not for this current session as it's already open; I've always been lenient with resubmissions but don't want to deal with them (and any potential re-resubmissions) for Christmas, especially with what looks like a lot of public interest in her.
that said, with the New Year session being the last + the implications of the Final Three Triple Redeem ruling, I think it's fairer overall to just leave unreleased debutantes ineligible for the remainder of the game
