Anyway, I don?t know if this is making a ton of sense because my internet has been sabotaging this entire writing process, so let me try and sum up this suit and this figure: both great! I like this little guy, and I like his suit on the TV show. What about you? How do you like Rising Hopper?

It's sci-fi, minimalistic, draws attention to the legs, I like it! Not my favorite suit ever, I think the head jewel could've been a more contrasting color, but I think it succeeds in doing what it's meant to.

A sign for Gemini.

And that's how you know it's Aruto!

Exactly! Our eyes may deceive us, but hexadecimal never lies!

I did love that part where Zero One jumps through the bus in slow motion though.

Then you'll be happy to know that I'm currently rewatching Gobusters! I'm up to Episode 14 so far, which means those two guys are about to show up.

While I do have a few standout favorites from EX-Aid (19, 23), I agree that Zero One is easier to get in to. I attribute this to the fact that Takahashi actually has a few secondary writers this time around to help carry the load. I mean, sure, there's all the production problems in the middle, but Zero One has a way of bouncing back, which is surprisingly relevant to one of the show's major themes.
