so basically, fodder any 2-3 star girls, keep 4-5-6, right?

If you have room, you should keep those and give them all second affection when possible so you get the gems and H Scenes. Then its up to you. Some collect all and others don't.

I personally keep the top 40(or more) of each color.

Yeah, what phob said is pretty much it. Per girl you can get 3 gems. It really just depends if you want to have one copy of each girl in your inventory. However, you might need them for Nation Battles where you are forced to use knights from single nation. Also, I'm not sure if you're going to have trouble with inventory space this early in the game.

I probably should've done this sooner

I'll give Curcuma some later

Yeah, at the beginning you're going to have to use quite a few gems for storage. Just curious, do you have a 'Storage' tab yet? I'm not sure if you get that as soon as you start or it is unlocked later.

It looks like this:

That is not much, Some of us have 750 character slots and 450 equipment slots unlocked right now.

I refuse to expand...

They need to hurry up and add warehouse 2.0

Some of us have 800 character slots and still need that storage change to stack materials badly.
