I'll be honest when I say I'm skeptical, having seen the post it's like "Why relate this to RabbitDragon?" mostly because RabbitDragon was CG'd fully in the last episode, and I feel it'd be the same here. There's a few other things, like them flip flopping back into Thouser as the final boss after Thouser's lost all credibility, threat factor, and marketability. Alongside them pushing Ark-Zero with a fairly notable VA who'd make the perfect antagonist for the final round.

Because having seen some stuff regarding Quarter Sales and just general other things, it definitely sounds like them heavily pushing Thouser backfired greatly and I doubt they'd try to push him any further given the entire nearly two months he and his company have been on the receiving end of a beat down.

Yea, gotta have to mega doubt that rumor, too. Like it's way too convenient that this rumor started to appear after a number of people (myself included) were underwhelmed or outright admitted to hating Zero-Two. And Thouser as the final boss? Mega doubt that too, considering that for that to happen, Gai would have to upgrade Thouser, which is an admittance that he and Thouser aren't "perfect". Completely counter to what his character has been established as. Though I'm unaware about the quarter sales and stuff, what're they like?

My older brother made the same comparison. I can deeply respect that style of final form, though I still wish that Zero-Two had a little more to it, though definitely not to the degree of the "rumored" final form, which is absurdly cluttered.
