Is RahXephon still in? It's the only robot anime I ever watched.
The series list varies wildly from game to game, it isn't really a 'is it still in' thing.

Though to answer your question, I don't think Rahxephon has been in a game since its debut in the series.

What exactly do you want? Anything more than that would require a huge amount of budget and time. The fact that dialogue is just talking heads is probably why they can afford to have so much plot in a fanservice crossover game.

Wow, you guys weren't kidding about Z2 Saisei Hen. I'm about halfway through the game, and it feels like I could deploy literally anything and still win without problems. Actually that's how I've been deciding on who to deploy, I sort them by level and deploy whoever have the lowest levels.
Honestly, this is a good thing because it lets me get use out of people like Todoh's sidekicks.

I think it's one of the Bleach openings, but I'm not sure which one.

EDIT: Or after going through all the Bleach OPs quickly, maybe not. It was definitely the opening to something.

Okay after further analysis I can tell you the following:

It's definitely a song by UVERworld.

I'm 99% sure it was the opening to something.

The rarity of Hot Blood/Soul in this is pretty odd although Maximum Break makes up for a lot of it. Asuka doesn't get either, although she's admittedly Rebuild Asuka and not classic flavor.
Does Kallen still get both? It was redundant gameplay-wise but it was pitch perfect characterization through gameplay.

I read something about them dropping hints about Diebuster being in the next game: can you confirm/deny? Is it just a wink wink/nudge nudge reference to it or does it seem like it has an actual chance of happening? I want to set everyone's music to Groovin' Magic.

I really want Nadesico to come back and this would be the best time to introduce the series, right when the Z series is ending so we don't have to deal with Prince of Darkness or anything like that. Other than that, I guess Zeorymer, just so we can get all the hilariously broken super robots in one game.

You want units that got completely shafted, look at the Mordred and Tristan in Z2.2. Anya's animations are bland as gently caress and Gino's are actively terrible, and they each have 2 attacks total. The Sutherland Sieg and Vincent weren't exactly awe-inspiring either.

At least you can get Gino up to like 20 move for shits.

I think the reason for the unmarked spoilers is most people here can't read Japanese, so they just look up all the plot the moment the game comes out since it's not like they'd understand it as they played through it.

Black Getter has Hayato and Benkei as subpilots in Z2.2, yeah. I'm pretty sure the game has a throwaway line about remodeling it so that Hayato and Benkei can handle the same stuff they usually do when they're in Getter-1.

No joke, a game where Suzaku/Anya/Gino were on your side to start with and Zero only joined at the tail end of the game could work. Of course, it'd have to be paired with the right shows.

And then you could have Orange join you at the start of the game and then disappear and reappear throughout the game, each time more over-the-top and each time with a stupider mech.
