ZOL was busy so he had someone else take over for him. He was involved in the rough stage which probably explains why Torajiro's scenes look like his work.

>but what if he's partially on TY3?
Sasayama posted on Bluesky at the start of the month saying he wanted to work on a new title, preferably a completely new IP but Taimanin/Kangoku Senkan were fine too.
If we take him at his word then there's no chance that TY3 is in the works, and Aoi's just working on a game for another studio or on Lilith's new gacha.
If we take him with delusion a see it as a teaser then the Ochiru Hitozuma stlye game, TY3, and a Kangoku Senkan game by ZOL are all in the works!!!
