 * Member Skill Mechanics Updated
 * The way you increase member Skill Lever will be changed. You will need to Practice with a member with the same Skill or with a Support Member to gain Skill Exp, and the level will go up after collecting enough Exp. In addition, you will be able to select a Support member to Practice with regardless of their rarity.
 * The Attribute of the Support member still needs to be the same.
 * Skill Exp received is not affected by Super Success or Ultra Success. Coming_Soon_to_SIF_(Skill_Level).png

 * If you've already achieved the increased slots as Goal rewards, there will not be any additional slots given.
 * Any Goal that gave member slots as a reward will give a Love Gem instead. If you've already achieved these Goals, you will be given the equal amount of Love Gems after the update.
 * The absolute max number of members are increased to 1000. Member slots increased per Love Gem spent will be increased from 3 to 4.

 * Changes to EXPERT songs
 * Expert songs will become a regular feature. Songs you have unlocked already will automatically have Expert as a difficulty choice.
 * Regular Hit songs will no longer have their Expert versions released as B-Sides.
 * All Song Goals will be carried over.
 * µ's and Aqours
 * You'll be able to switch between µ's mode and Aqours mode, and this will also change the songs available to play. You can use any member to play either of the modes, but µ's member will give you more points in µ's mode and Aqours member in Aqours mode. Aqours songs are unlocked by completing Goals that are not related to Rank. Coming_Soon_to_SIF_(Aqours_Mode).png
 * Random Choice
 * A song of a specific Attribute will be randomly selected from the list of songs you have already unlocked. The Attribute will change daily, and the songs will be available from both µ's and Aqours modes in all four difficulties. Random Choice songs will give more Reward Points to fill up your Reward Box! This mode will be unlocked after you have unlocked a certain number of regular Hit songs.
 * Please note that feature details may change without prior notice.
