I appreciate that I’m pretty late to the party but I just left Hades in Stray Gods and I’m broken

We need a Stray Gods 2 but it’s a prequel and you play as Persephone and the main point of the game is her romance with Calliope beginning middle and end

OMG YES!!!! THIS IS AMAZING!

At Zenkaikon 2017 I got to meet Steve Blum(Boreas, Granox, and Mr. Nash) and Mary Elizabeth McGlynn(Mrs. Dalton and ADR Director). They loved my Tenkai Knights cosplay and merch and were happy to find a fan of such an obscure and underrated anime! On Sunday, the last day of the con, I asked them at they’re Q&A panel what it was like working on the show. Here is their response:

Transcripted by me Me: Okay, so yesterday I met you in my Tenkai Knights cosplay which was really cool and I want to know; what was it like working on that show?

Mary: What’s your cosplay?

Steve: Tenkai Knights.

Me: Ceylan.

Mary: Oh you were amazing-

Steve: Yeah

Mary: -you were Tenkai Knights!(Explaining to audience) It was this show we did it was so cute and it was sort of based on toys it’s- some shows are made, uh, they’ll build a toy line and they’ll build a show around it. They’ll see if they can sell the toys and if they can the show will continue. Uh- 

Steve: Oh, great!

Mary: -there it is our little Tenk-

Steve: This is Tenkai Knights. Has anybody seen-

Mary: So-

Steve: -Tenkai Knights? (Inaudible words after)

Mary: It was so cute, right?! It’s with Johnny Bosch, Todd Haberkorn, Ben Diskin, and um Bryce Papenbrook and then Steve is the bad guys and we had so much fun doing this show, it was so cute and again it was one of those shows where they just gave it to us and said ‘Make it funny.’. So they weren’t so, um, married to what the Japanese did is that they just said ‘Use that as a springboard and just- let’s westernize it as much as we can and just make it silly and goofy, uh, for a more American, uh, leading audience and, um, we had so much fun doing it.

Steve: We thought it was- you know we never know how shows are gonna do. If we thought this show would really hit-

Mary: Yeah

Steve: -it was such a great idea and the toys are really fun they’re like LEGOs, they’re LEGO compatible but they fold out into these really cool little characters. So I thought, how could that possibly lose? I guess it just didn’t get advertised enough.

Mary: Yeah. And I know we did some games, too it was really fun- I love Tenkai Knights! Tenkai Knights will always be my-

Steve: Yeah we put as much love into that as anything we did so we hope somebody sees it- somebody all sees it at some point!

Me: Yeah I-I think I have the little Tributon core brick in my bag- I might- but I don’t know though, but I can check.

Steve: Awesome, thank you- well, thank you for watching it.

Me: Mm-hm

There you go!! I think it’s super cool that Mary and Steve love this show as much as they do and that they had fun working on it!!! They are super sweet and I definitely want to see them again!!
