Do you want more?

I'm not totally sure what you're talking about, Saito-kun. I really need to try to keep up with things better. >> Have you heard about something being continued?

Now that you mention it, I was confused about the Beyondard characters running around their world, too. It was definitely strange... Maybe it means the issues in Trill's world weren't totally resolved with the Beasts being destroyed after all?

It was on PRC somewhere and in the OSS blog. They were apparently making plans for the series. Whether they got anywhere is anyone's guess!

The 3DS game is pure speculation on my part. Would love to see it though.

I would really love to see it. But I really wanted another EXE series that really based in the Anime, of course, with Saito.

I'm still confused as to why they took him out in the first place. Doesn't make any sense... I mean, he's even in the manga, which skipped a lot of things from the games, so why leave him out in the anime? He's just as much of a main character as Netto is, possibly even bigger, so why leave him out? :/

Who knows? I thought for sure he would show up at the Pharohman arc. Which turned out to be super dissapointing and didn't make any sense. I was really irritated with the whole Pharohman (who has a very small role in the games. I don't even remember his purpose other than being bad guy # whatever) is SUPER IMPORTANT RIDICULOUSLY POWERFUL and somehow Forte's daddy? What? I blocked most of that out of my mind.

Anyways, if they brought Saito in I would be ridiculously excited. But if I seriously think about it, if the did revive the anime, there's no way we'd get Saito this far into the series unless they just chucked him in there and were like "We just decided not to allude to such an important character/plot device for 200+ episodes except with Miyuki's random comment in the first season! This was a good idea. :D"

The Pharoahman thing REALLY confused me too. I was like "Wait, Forte was like... created from him or something? Wat."

And yeah, I agree. Sadly I don't think it'll happen unless they made like... an alternate version of the anime. :( Boo.

And I realized Saito had EVEN a bigger role in EXE5. I mean, he just stopped Nebula Grey with just a wave of hand, if it weren't for Forte Cross Rockman in the movie, and his removal in the Anime, it would've been better.

Personally, I liked Forte's creation in the Game and Manga version, I mean, he was just a good Navi as others.

As for Saito, I'm TRULY disappointed to when he didn't make in the Anime, I think he has a bigger role than even Netto himself.

This reminds me! Whatever happens in the hypothetical anime, it should never bring back Forte. Don't get me wrong, I like him in the games and the manga, but he's completely pointless in the anime.

I think the place to bring Saito in, if ever, would be at the very end for that boost in epicness. Otherwise, the anime really doesn't need Saito--there are even strikes against him, since I'm pretty sure Blues and Forte share the Ultimate Program and Trill's an alternate version of Rockman created by Tadashi. Everything points toward Rockman just being a Navi designed by someone who knew what he was doing. Go knowledge? Razz

I like Saito, but I do see why the anime left him out. He tends to be mentioned near the end of each game--maybe this kept him a surprise for anyone introduced through the anime--and sometimes the Saito thing isn't even that important to the plot. And then there's the link thing, which even the games sometimes seemed to forget about... Besides, the games were all about Rockman, and the anime never seemed to want to do that. While Rockman was always important, it had more of an emphasis on teamwork earlier on and Netto/more teamwork later.

(Oddly enough, I don't remember the manga having him. I remember Saito Style, but I don't remember anything about them being twins...)

I think what Imperiality meant that Saito is mentioned, as a Style Change. Oddly enough, even though they didn't need the Saito character, why not the style change?

The Ultimate Program is mentioned again--Yuuichirou says Cross Fusion changed it in Axess, and Forte's trying to get one in the beginning of Stream. I do agree about your point that they could just be three different programs, though.

I remember hearing that Beast 25 said Trill was the Rockman of Beyondard. But it's been an awfully long time since Beast 25 came out, so maybe I'm right and maybe I'm misremembering things. ^^;

What you say about the link is probably the real reason why the anime didn't touch Saito. If half the time the link doesn't seem to be in effect, why should it show up in the anime? I liked the manga's handling of the 'link' effect and how Enzan had it as well, so there was a real sense of Netto and Enzan being partners toward the beginning.

Should've been clearer there, sorry. ^^; I meant teamwork with other Operators and Navis; Netto and Rockman usually work with other people in the anime. The gang in EXE, Enzan in Axess, the CF Members in Stream, the gang plus Enzan, Laika, and Dingo in Beast... Sure, Netto and Rockman are powerful, but the other team members do make contributions. Meanwhile, in the games, EXE3 starts off by having the gang try to pitch in... and they promptly get hypnotized! Silly gang, only Netto and Rockman can do stuff! EXE5 and 6 were much better about that, but the first few games still had that sense of Rockman and Netto being the only competent battlers in town. Though that can probably be chalked up to 'video game hero'. ^^;

In the Ultimate Program topic, it was mentioned again in the Movie, where Rockman pleads Forte to absorb his Ultimate Program to beat Nebula Grey, when that didn't work for Forte and he can't control it, Forte Cross Rockman was born.

As for Saito not being touch by the Anime version, I don't know the reason, Anime, Game and Manga have different plots and some or most characters had different sides in those 3, except that Gospel had the same members as the game version in the Manga, but not the Anime.

I was just sort of thinking today that if the anime got revived I'd actually like to see an episode about Haruka or Yuuichirou. They show up frequently enough but I'd want an episode actually centered around one or both of them.

As weird as it is to say, I kind of liked it better before Yuuichiro was always around. Maybe it's a cliche to have the father always gone, and maybe it's just guilt by association since I hold the original series in the highest regard, but it made his rare appearances all the more special. Netto and Rockman's courage and heroics seemed more independent--before Yuuichiro and scilab were always around with dimensional areas and backup cross fusion members and chip gates and net police.

Mah. Rolling Eyes

I'd take any form of a revival.

@Achie-san: I was also wondering how those two met and had a relationship...

As for the revival, any revival for me is fine.
