do you still have any hope for black lilith VNs or do you think its joever

Given that it's been over four years since their last VN, none whatsoever. Not unless they either start failing at gacha for some reason, or hire more writers specifically so that they can still crank out VNs.

The thing is, there's a happy medium that they could be going for if they felt like it. I was reminded of this today because of the new Yukikaze/Rinko unit, which is a direct reference to TY1, without technically fitting in with its story or version of the world. What I think they should do is adapt all of the main games to the gacha universe, and sell them piece-by-piece in the Library screen. Say, 200 Taima stones gets you one chapter of a game plus two scenes, similar to what you would get with an SR unit. Updated art and designs; whatever changes are required to incorporate the gacha version of Gosha; cameos and scenes added for popular gacha characters; etc. The scripts for the scenes could remain largely untouched (barring continuity changes or censorship); they could re-use old voice files; and, given the lesser production standards, they could even reuse all the same music, backgrounds and character CGs they already have. It would take less effort than usual, be different enough to provide fans with reason to buy the same games again, and eventually allow them to carry out their original plans for TA0 and TY3 in some form.
