TNM must have been on this all year, I was not expecting so much original material. Very interesting changes, I think I still prefer a Gomah that is more comedic and less evil, but I don't mind the change.

Very cool ideas in here! Also the art is great and totally has that enjoyable round Daima feel. I really like how it’s structured and it’s very clear you guys are trying to speed run the show’s orginal story beats, which is very lovely and subtle enough to not make it obvious.

One thing I thinka Daima rewrite should do is keep KibitoKai fused. I think there’s so much potential there in his relationship with his siblings. They can’t recognize him, but KibitoKai would know them well. I think that would’ve done something cool with the fact that they are fused, instead of clunkily just negating whah happened in the show (though you guys’ solution is the most sleak I’ve seen)

Mark puts a lot of love into these adaptations. I respect it. I don’t always agree with the changes he makes but I feel like they all come from a place of thinking deeply and caring a lot about the story and the characters.

I’d love to pick his brain over this someday.
…. I forget what I was talking about.
