Just like the title says do you behind there is a lot of favoristism in Senran Kagura. Like how some characters get XR and LR cards and other do not, or how some characters have better stories and character development while others are just bland and boring. What do you think?

I agree, and honestly the extreme favoritism of Yumi, IMO the dullest of all characters, has basically killed my interest in the franchise. None of the other girls really get any development or focus anymore thanks to her.

You can't have a mass of character like senran kagura and continue to develop only 1 character though.

I agree that there is a certain amount of Favoritism. That is for sure. To an extent, it is understandable though. As Boomie said, Yumi is the most popular Senran in Japan so more focus on her is a given. Every Series with a large Cast has those few Characters that might get a little further than the rest. Saying that she is the only one to get development seems like quite the exaggeration to me however. Each of the Girls have their moments and are being given a decent amount of focus throughout the Games. I suppose, some have been given much more insight than others so far but in the end, this is still a Series that keeps progressing. Personally, I have come to be realizing new aspects about the Characters with each Entry and discerning things that had left me wondering before. I do not think any of the Characters deserves something more than the other as when it comes to who has a better Story / Background, Personality, Looks, Relatability, etc., this matter is pretty subjective. All of them still have potential and I am hopeful towards the future to see it blossom. That being said, sure, I have my preferences towards them. It just so happens that the Games released so far haven't disappointed me. From my point of view, Yumi got as much spotlight as Miyabi in Estival Versus with Ryobi and Ryona topping them both while in PBS, Shiki felt much more crucial than any of the Gessen Girls in their respective Route.
As for the Mobile Games, it is undeniable that Yumi is in the lead. Then again, they are Japan exclusive so they ultimately revolve around the wants of this Region's Fandom. As long as Yumi has all that love going about her, they will be increasing her appearances for more profit. She is indeed the Poster Girl of the Series at this point. Not much anyone from the outside can do about that. I haven't played New Wave myself or looked into its progress much in general so Yumi's ever growing popularity hasn't impacted me that much, I guess?
Regardless, getting back at the Main Entries and the direction they are taking, I believe it is still too early to tell. At least for me. I cannot see Yumi's or any other Character's inclusion in the future getting that much attention and decreasing my enjoyement of what's about to come honestly !!!!
