i was sitting around for 10 minutes just looking at the scene when i read the news.
i'm just lucky that they made their first (and unfortunately, last) show ever in my country just last year, and i got to see them live before.
I'm alright, just taking things day by day. Reality of course is not as fun as the internet 80% of the time.
Yeah I think people believe non canon = bad. That's not necessarily true, even though its probably a higher percentage it will be bad then good. Folks are optimistic I guess and hearing non canon makes them nervous.
And what's even funnier is how easy it would be for Okouchi/ Taniguchi to go "oh yeah that wasn't canon" any number of years down the road. Not even bothering to retcon or anything, they could just dismiss this series and that would be that.
I see things are pretty much the same around just a tad quieter.
I'm with you on the canon debate though. If it's completely brand new writers without the original creators then at best you can argue spin-off in certain circumstances.
