My thoughts exactly! They could have balanced both arcs equally with Homare, but they chose not to which is a shame. EmiRuru's story together was literally the same thing over and over again about how Ruru isn't human and Emiru telling her she has a heart. At least Homare and EmiRuru got something though. Saaya got absolutely nothing and it's a freaking shame. Since the leaks of the season, she was my favorite and I kept hoping for her to get this epic storyline about how she was gonna fall into deep despair and become a villain or ends up being the future mother of George who fell ill and passed away. She could have had her conclusion be indecisive with the statement, "My future is as vast as the blue sky. My wings will carry me to my future with my loved ones as the wind beneath them". She never once had a solo fight nor did the writers focus on her being the weakest member after ep7. I was also really holding out for her to sacrifice herself during the final battle, be reincarnated by Mother and become part of the Star Twinkle team as the mysterious girl with no memory of who she is who becomes a Cure midway named Cure Heaven.

Also, EmiRuru never got solo songs nor did the main trio get second singles.
