Makes me wonder what would happen to bring Daisuke out of retirement, since he hates fighting. Could Yuriko be in danger?

(Or heck, even just within Kabuto itself, he had to deal with suddenly not being able to use Hiyori partway through, so even there, there's already precedent?)

I mean, yeah, if I were to trust anybody to make a Kabuto movie without Tendo work for this plausible yet preferably false hypothesis, then of course it would be the head writer Yonemura, despite his controversial reputation for writing pretty much anything else. So I'm satisfied and hopeful with the staff annoucement. While I have often suggested Mouri for his general talent at adapting to different works, after Zi-O, I'm glad he's not involved in this.

Fortunately, Sougo has overwritten that timeline. Makes no sense for Waga Tomo Ka-GA-mi to become Kabuto when as Gatack he has already claimed the title of Strongest Rider.

And cheese. What an orexigenic anniversary celebration this has been.
