[Blue Archive] Costume implications

Posted under Tags

I'm not sure if it's too soon to be asking about this, but now that kei_(new_body)_(blue_archive) has been split into kei_(decagrammaton)_(blue_archive) and kei_(student)_(blue_archive), and a separate tag has been made for the original Kei in vol 2 as kei_(aris)_(blue_archive), I'm wondering what the base tag for playable Kei should be going forward, considering it's only a matter of time before she gets an alt.

I haven't seen a consensus on it, but the status quo right now seems to be that kei_(blue_archive) is the base tag for Kei's current form, and kei_(student)_(blue_archive) only functions as a costume chartag. The wiki for the latter currently describes it as "Kei in her Millennium uniform", and many posts featuring the new Kei without her uniform don't have this tag.

If that's the intended arrangement, then what tag should serve as the base chartag once playable Kei eventually receives an alt?

Mentioning @danbooru02 for your input on this since you were gardening kei_(student)_(blue_archive) a few days ago.

Personally, I thought that the "student" tag is for Kei with normal-colored skin and white hair, regardless of her attire, and thus don't quite agree with the "in her Millennium outfit" part in the wiki and the removal of the tag from many posts where she wears something different or nothing at all.

I feel her student tag should be limited to her millenium uniform and the non official dress article stick to the main tag. Additionally the rest of the roster should get default costume tag. Its like vtubers having their first/debut costume as a tag afterall.

Shouldn't that match other offline collabs naming, i.e. Koharu (Pizza Hut) (Blue Archive), Aoba (Mom's Touch) (Blue Archive), etc.?

Well no, I don't think they should, or at least these should be an exception, because I'm very certain no one's gonna say, "Oh, I wanna look up those Nozomi pics in that Kujibikido collab costume", instead it's most likely going to be, "Oh, I wanna look up those official Nozomi pics wearing pajamas"

can alias them together

Costumes for collaborations should probably be qualified by the company they're collaborating with, otherwise you get the confusing scenario of trying to figure out whether or not these are official costumes from the game itself instead of from an external source and break consistency, especially given the existence of Yuuka (Pajamas) which is an actual non-collaboration costume. People can find the tag name from the posts, the pajamas tag or the base character wiki.
