Does this mean we'll finally get the two new Megazone 23 series and the Pretty Sammy sequel?

Alright, so does OG AIC/Toru Miura get the rights back from Toei Agency? That's what I'm curious about 🧐

Apparently, that whole AIC Rights/Toei Agency partnership was quietly terminated in February 2023 - at least according to one person who inquired TA about the matter.

Although really, to this day, neither AIC-R nor Toei Agency have released any kind of public statement confirming this, so there's that.

What I'm curious about is how this "AIC is now a shareholder of AIC Rights" thing works. Does this mean the shares Maeda sold and the profits they've generated are clawed back and given to AIC?
