One Episode Navis

I've noticed that most people here who are able to download and watch the anime developed navi favoritism. Unfortunately, most favorites only last one episode. I thought I'd share my thoughts on why this is so...

I think it all comes down to the availability of the seiyuus... All of them are too busy with whatever anime they're currently voicing over that they barely have time to voice over in another (PlantMan, BrightMan...)

Some might have been contracted only in Axess, that's why they didn't appear in Stream (and maybe even in Beast). Even if they did make an appearance, that's just it - an appearance. They'll barely talk in that episode, because no seiyuu's available... Think 'Darkloid Army' here... Some might even have been only until EXE... I guess this is why we got an Asteroid AirMan instead of Asteroid FreezeMan...

Then there's the continuous Narcy-VideoMan fillers in Stream... I'm guessing that only those two are available among the seiyuss of Neo WWW... or is it just that they're planning for the season's ending?

Just my thoughts... I know everyone wants their favorite Navis to have more screen time, but would you want them to have a completely different seiyuu? If I'm not mistaken, I believe that's the main reason why they became favorites...

I doubt that's the reason, really... if they wanted a certain character to have more screentime, then they'd simply hire the seiyuu longer. The only seiyuu that has changed, as far as I know, is Yuuichirou's in between Axess and Stream. So, explain that one.

Videoman is quite possibly the most used Contest Navi of all time. He's been in how many games and series? Lets count:

EXE4
EXE4.5
Battle Chip
Axess
Stream

As opposed to the Laserman who was in all of the above minus Stream, and Kendouman, minus Axess and Stream.

So quite possibly, yes, Videoman and Narcy might be available more than others. .-.

Videoman, Laserman, and Kendoman were in Battle Chip GP? Or did you mean they have physical battle chip toys?
