I'd agree, if not for a certain someone titled Tackle:
it''s also really cool how her Actor doubles as her Suit Actor.
I still appreciate that Toei did that.

Plus she had a lot of personality and it would have been interesting to explore why she made the decisions that she did. She was definitely strong, why did she choose to serve instead? Was she hoping to become the First Woman or something of the sort? Did she actually like Ryouma and Kaito, or were they just a means to an end? There's a lot of questions there that they could have explored. Definitely more than Zack who was given the minimal of personality and background.
It's not that I was simplifying her character. It's just if Toei wanted to make a Gaiden about her, they probably wanted to put some Marika fight into the Gaiden. And all I can see is that they put the story of before her debut in the series since her presence was really felt in the series continuously. But yeah, like you said take, Toei could make a story about why she chose to make all those decisions altogether.

It is weird but I get it. I wanted to see more of Zack but he got the short stick and could have used a lot more screen time. I also want to know more about Ryouma, I mean he basically a bad guy because he was a bad guy. I would love to see some more back story and fleshing out to his character.

Hey, at least it's not Sid and Kougane.
I knew about the poll, though wasn't that included with the Baron/Zangetsu release? In which case it's only been out a couple of weeks: I figured Duke/Knuckle wasn't about the poll because that doesn't leave them long to collect votes for that, but I guess there was a quicker turnaround on it than I thought.
Personally I wouldn't have minded a Jam one, if only because then Bandai might actually release the LS-DARK Lock Seed...

I know that Gaim was a popular show and all but they picked those two characters for Gaiden? I feel like they're just static characters like they're just there in the show just to be characters.
