Have to say from playing DMM and Nutaku even when I was new on DMM I preferred the fact there is always something to do. Breaks on DMM kind of happen where there isn;t an event that week but there is something else going on like 1.5x or Subjugation. Add in the repeating cycle of revivals and you always have a way to farm what you need to advance your team.
Biggest problem with Nutaku isn't the breaks but the lack of other things to do during them. If you are unlucky in an event trying to farm a resource you desperately need and the RNG hates you then its a 2-3 week wait. Not so on DMM.
Belinda's revival is a small step in the right direction but having it in place of a new event is a step back. It feels like a placeholder when we have loads of content from DMM that could be added instead or concurrently.
tldr; on DMM you always feel like you are moving forward, on Nutaku stagnation and boredom happens too easy
