SKE48 2021 year in review, what about 2022 ?

Similar to th same thread just created in the AKB48 section:
With 2021 coming to an end soon, what are your thought when looking back at the whole year ?

• The goods ?
• The bads ?
• A few words to sum up 2021 ?

And let's mix this up with the somewhat Stage48 traditional year end thread

• Hopes for 2022 ?
• Fears for 2022 ?
• Your predictions ?

Please don't just post a list, give some arguments to your reasoning.

 

Good Stuff: Kamifure! Coming Flavor getting more shows and actually getting treated like a meaningful sub-unit. New KKS stage We're Growing Up and the progress of the 10th gen. despite the global pandemic's negative effects. Yuki Arai becoming a serious pro wrestler and gaining the respect of the other pros while keeping up with her idol duties. Zest management providing job opportunities for members post-graduation.
Bad Stuff: No changes to the team stages....still! Stupid pandemic wasting another year in the short idol life span of the members.
Synopsis: Fans and the group still seem to be in a holding pattern because of the general situation.
Hopes for 2022: That the fans will be able to cheer again. Personally, I want to see Egochan and Ruuchan each get to be the center of a single.
Fears: That the pandemic will drag on and on.
Predictions: Makiko will graduate and become C.E.O. of Zest and make Aoumi-san group captain. (lol)
