I'll go for Ifa since there's nothing better to pull for, but probably on whatever older character's banner runs with Effie. From the shot we got of Effie's back in the trailer I suspect she's going to be another scantily-clad fetish character with one or two stock character traits for a "personality".
I absolutely won't pull for Skirk, so there's no point in pulling for her supports either.

Oissu!I will call any male younger than me a boy and you can't stop me
and I include Scaramouche and Venti in that metric
Bewitching EyesIt's two months away, maybe there's a reaction change coming we don't know about? (He said with delusion, knowing that the odds of that being extremely low)
I mean otherwise their new toy in Effie is really gimped! (He leaned into the fantasy further, while the back of his mind knew that this game has a long sorid history of poor planning and balance. Also he kept forgetting Effie's offical name, nor how to pronounce it. He kept thinking of that scene from Finding Nemo where Dory tries to read "es-ca-pe").

Kinich's english VA is being replaced with Jacob Takanashi in the 5.5 update, with previous lines gradually being redubbed in future updates.
If this is a start of replacing all the striking V As then I will quit this game forever.
The final stop on that train of thought is that Big Poes kind of look like certain grand wizards wearing white robes and carrying torches, so let's just not get on the train at all and say the ghost mages look like ghost mages.
...I'm watching Contrapoint's essay on conspiracies until the update is live so it's messing with my head.

I'm not sure yet. John Patneaude (the former VA) has yet to comment on it. But I am learning they pulled this stunt with two ZZZ characters recently, which I didn't know about because I don't play that game.
So looks like the start of boycott Hoyoverse to me. I'll give it a couple days for details to come out about this, but if it's all true then I'm parting ways with this game.

the tatankasaur controls feel kinda janky
And unlike the qucusaurs, playing as a character who can use their mechanics doesn't help
Bewitching EyesMade out pretty well from the banner. Triggered Capturing Radiance for Varesa, and even if I'm not crazy about her design (wish it leaned more into the luchadora aspect), her gameplay seems fun. Got only one Iansan, but snagged 4 Chevs to get her to C6. Probably going to wait to the end of Escoffier's banner to see what the forecast is on her and Skirk's numbers before doing any more pulls.
Did a 10 pull to get Iansan and got...Lan Yan (She doesn't even go here!)
Well one more 10-pull can't h- MOOOOOOOOOO...and Iansan.
Well guess I finally have a use for that Lost Prayers I had lying around.

I'mma try and get Ifa, I love me my Anemo boys
