I won't rule it out, but I sort of have the feeling that Capcom's doing damage control now. It hasn't been as severe here (though it seems people are starting to realize), but the Japanese fanbase HATED GS4.
Hmm, I think I'm sort of the opposite of you there. I'd love something that focuses on rewriting GS4 and gives Phoenix and Maya and Miles and everyone three second cameos. I adore the original trilogy cast, but after PW3 I'm honestly okay with the spotlight moving away from Phoenix, because I am supremely satisfied with the way the trilogy ended. I like Apollo, and I want to see his story, I just don't want it to be failsauce. My beautiful dream is that the anime will fix GS4, and then GS5 will take over from there. (And hell, fixing GS4 could involve bringing the original cast back in all their glory. Like maybe Apollo's a junior partner at Wright & Co. Law Offices. I would not argue. I would so completely not argue.)
An anime based on the original trilogy would be glorious and I would love it, make no mistake... but I really, really want them to beat GS4 with the retcon hammer so that shit never, ever happens to Phoenix.
