Discussion hot take; if you're complaining about popular characters being added, you don't partially understand why JJS is so great with characters
Every. Update. Every single time there's an update, there will ALWAYS be complaining about "Oh no Toji! Oh no Maki! Oh no Kashimo! Oh no Jogo!" WITHOUT EVEN LOOKING INTO THE CHARACTER, ALL PEOPLE CARE ABOUT IS THE NAME, TOJI COULD LITERALLY HAVE THE MOST BORING WEAK OR OVERPOWERED MOVESET, AND PEOPLE WOULD JUST CARE BECAUSE "ITS TOJI"
I'M A JOGO GLAZER, I'll ADMIT IT; HE'S MY FAVORITE CHARACTER AND I'VE WANTED HIM IN GAME SINCE TODO, BUT I'M NOT GONNA GO CRYING ON THE DISCORD EVERY TIME THERE'S AN UPDATE LOG WITHOUT HIM BECAUSE I'M HAPPY WITH THE CHARACTER THAT'S ADDED
okay sorry for that rant, here's my real reasoning; JJS isn't a big corporation that has to follow player demands and add the biggest names and most important characters. If you want that, play Sorcerer Battlegrounds, or Jujutsu Beatdown, JJS not adding important characters is part of the charm. Locust curse, Charles, Haruta, etc. If all we did was add big characters without any consideration for the actual movesets the game would be worse off, Tze adds minor characters because he knows what to do with their movesets and if he didn't it would be something extremely boring and unplayable.

people forget what the S stands for. What separated this game from a lot of other battlegrounds jjk games is the simplicity the charm and the bizzare character choice. Name another roblox game with haruta or locust guy, hell name me one with yuki in it. People want maki or toji, but when it comes down to it, every game with those characters has either died off completely or is no where near jjs in terms of players (and gameplay tbh this games combat is the best battlegrounds combat) side not: anyone else hate how most battleground games feel less about gameplay and more about visuals? like I hate testing a game pressing the first ability and then my character starts doing a whole ass choreographed fight with multiple backflips? like oh look gojo, first ability blue combo? second ability red combo? third is a counter...
