Andrusi: I disagree on a fundamental level with the idea that someone can be an Expy of three or more characters at the same time. That's what we call a "character type" or perhaps "several expies of the same original character." Given the amount of Heartcatch-related information available at the moment, we might also call it a "hair color."
I particularly disagree with the idea that Toei is raiding someone's fanfiction for ideas.
CaitsMeow: Not to be all "me too", but...Me Too!. (Especially the fanfic thing; I'm joking when I say that...not that the other person isn't, mind...) I'll go ahead and delete those lines for now; let's worry about who's an Expy of whom after the darn thing actually airs. (If this makes me an Orwellian Editor, then feel free to change it back.) I apologize for my apathy in this matter.
