We've put a moratorium on adding new casts any earlier than that, because we kept having to go back and re-retcon things to account for them, and we got sick of that. <grin> Summer 2017 or later is far enough out to avoid disturbing stuff we have in place already, while allowing us to make any necessary adjustments to the really long-term plans.
At the risk of thread-jacking, is June 19 close enough to summer for government Celestial work? Because if I do jump on board and bring the core protagonists of BLEACH into Refuge (as I've wanted to do since the TNB days and reiterated my wish to do in my comment on the AO3 edition of Five Years to Live Again), that's the day I want to have them arrive, for reasons having to do with the Fandom wiki's interpretation of the series timeline.
Technically midsummer in 2017 was the 21st, or the 20th at 11:25PM EDT. That's close enough in my summery judgement. How many characters are the core protagonists of Bleach these days, 500?
