Akane's irl appearance is based on Rikka, and given the subtext between them, you can interpret it as Akane learning to love herself.

Remember, she refers to Rikka as trash that she discarded, which can signify trying to distance herself from her old life.

It's symbolic of learning to deal with your self-loathing, lol.

Pretty much, but it does add a very interesting light to the Les Yay.

[up][up][up]Oh yeah I remembered that theory from when the finale aired but I was wondering if there was anything new in the music video which supported it, given the reaction you gave.

Well the music video picks up directly after the Anime's final scene and gives us a better look at Akane to confirm said theory.

Hm... not that I'm not glad we get more of this show, since it was really good, but... do we need more? Didn't the story conclude pretty decently last time? Or are we getting a completely new story?

SSSS.Dynazenon is not a sequel to SSSS.Gridman. It's a new story that takes place within the same universe. It's part of a bigger project called "Gridman Universe".

The storm has now resided, the wolf now rests.

Oh, right! Sorry, I thought it was another Gridman series.

It takes place in the same setting, so it is for all intents and purpose

Sure, but my concern was that Akane's story, and those of everybody else involved in the last anime, was somehow going to get a sequel, when it was solved pretty conclusively.

But Gridman's setting was Akane's head?

It can be someone else's head now.

[up][up]it doesn't have to be in somebody's head. There are parallel worlds in gridman setting. In the original toku series there are the real world, computer world and the hyper world (where gridman and Calibur and co. hails from). IINM, the world that akane created is part of the computer world as well.

[up][up][up] So in the context of SSSS Gridman, there's the digital world, the dream world, and the real world?

I tried looking up Dynazenon, but apparently, the "Dyna" comes from Dyna Dragon, a robot dinosaur buddy from the Gridman myth is, while "Zenon" comes from (in the context of SSSS Gridman) Powered Zenon, the super-ultra-mega combined form of the Neon Genesis Junior High Students minus Gridman.

Most interesting...

But hey, if it's not a sequel to SSSS Gridman, does that mean we're getting in someone else's head?
