I've not seen anyone disputing that though. I've just seen people frustrated that Toei didn't put any effort into Crystal. Instead, they decided to be as cheap as can be yet again. All that hype, delays and promoting of Crystal just for a shoddily animated anime.

The live action series flopped pretty big, especially in terms of merchandise sales (tough it had a decent cult following). I think they're just being cautious and not trying to break the bank.

Crystal still has decent designs and is fun even if it's not the best animation ever. If it does well maybe there will be a high budget movie or something.

You'd have more of a point about them being cautious, if Toei wasn't known for being cheap and if the current merchandise wasn't selling like hotcakes. So I don't think they're being cautious, they're just doing what they always do.

Which is disappointing, but I'm not going to lose any sleep over it. I was never super invested in this reboot to begin with.

I set my expectations low from the start. We live in a world with shitty reboots and anime is no exception. And their only purpose is to feed off an entire generation of baby boomer children who have this fixation on nostalgia in order to make some easy money. I'm got used to the disappointment.
