It's a good scheme! It almost worked!

The weird continuity problem in Philip returning a year after Episode 48, though, is that it makes the timeline of Movie War Core maybe not work? If OOO is happening in 2010-2011, that means Philip wouldn't return until that show's finale. (Which is kind of hilarious to think about -- Eiji mourning Ankh's disappearance, just as Philip arrives to say he's been alive this whole time in a DX bird toy.) Unless every series after Double is perpetually taking place one year in the future?
