I, on the other hand, feel that this is much better than what would have come from an extended version of Rebirth. I think I see where this might be going. If I'm right, they're going to give each of the major characters his own vignette that delves fully into the style of his origin, and then they will bring them all together for the tournament itself which should have a single unified style. If that's the case then they are doing quite well so far. If you wanted to do that for a pair of female fantasy ninjas, there were really only two ways to go about it: animation or wire-fu. Guess which one of those is cheaper?
