Also, just for the record, did Kaz say ZeXal would be the last series again at all, like he did about 5D’s? If he didn’t, at least we can say he didn’t back out from that again for Arc-V lol.

idk yeah, Yuya’s ZeXal-ish design’s got me slightly iffy on it, but I’ll give it a few episodes and see if it’s engaging (I mean, going back to the “have stuff happen in the first 10 episodes” thing from GX and especially 5D’s would be good).  Maybe by then I’ll catch up on ZeXal and Vector’s shenanigans I’d love having a series to watch through from the get-go again like I did with 5D’s; those old times on Janime staying up late for the Fortune Cup/Dark Signer arcs were fun haha.

I also saw someone on that NAC thread suggest having Chiaki J Konaka come in as head writer, which would be really cool given how he did Digimon Tamers (haven’t seen Lain but heard it’s pretty f’d up; also seems Yoshida’s done decent stuff with ZeXal, but it’d be interesting to have someone else take it up).

idk I just hope this series turns out awesome enough to have Masaaki Endoh record some songs for it again
