That only makes me more suspicious that there was some scene in the opening that someone didn't like.

Huh. I really like the OP song. But I've also liked the extra minute of show time from giving up the OP sequence. Interesting that this comes after almost exactly a full quarter after they got rid of it.

How does that explain stuff like the OP being gone for ep 12, then back again, then gone again?

I think it's because that episode was important enough that the director wanted more time (like with many series finales), and a little while later someone noticed and argued about the OP on legal grounds, getting it stuck like that for the next few months.

I don't think it will be abandoned, probably the OP will return again for another story arc

Possible Reasons: (in adult way)
CG cost too high (which explains OOO GataKiriBa's less appearance in Net Movies)

But the CG's already finished. Once you've CG'd something it doesn't cost money to use it again, the work's already done. GataKiriBa had to be done different every single time which is why the CG cost was too high.

Nice, what I mean is the opening which will be redo it again. It will take much time for the CG Staff to make the new opening for the next story arc. :D

So the OP is back and it's pretty much the same. I guess that rules out there being a problem with it?

You're not wrong, I guess. Still, I have a hard time with the theory that the whole OP was pulled for that one little clip. They could have easily replaced it with something else rather than jettisoning the whole OP.

Did a better comparison video where the videos are just next to each other. Thanks to Phoenix for the tip on that.

So they modified some camera angles, changed the timing of several scenes, and added in recent character developments (Nico) and silhouetted others (ominous Rider). Besides the Decade-esque bit cut, is there anything notable missing? What in the world caused them to take it down and then openly admit to later returning it pending edits??

Is the JP fandom talking about this at all? Surely there's someone out there combing this frame by frame haha.
