I know what you mean. I suppose I should be happy that she's even in the new opening at this point. Gosh, Leaf so enjoys teasing me about this.

Though Kuuya and Sakuya at least have a chance to feature. They could always flash between Kunnekamun and Tuskuru like they did in one of the drama CDs.

I dread the it is 2/3 complete now. I certainly wouldn't mind more!

You know, I think the problem, at least for me, is that I loved the original so much (a story which was already too large for a mere 26 episodes) that a mere three episode bonus can't possibly live up to my expectations. Don't get me wrong, I've enjoyed the ride so far, it's just such a pity that there isn't more.
