It's a damn shame for Nukitashi if it turns out to be true, because I'm confident it would've been top 3 scenes of all time. Nevertheless, anime productions sometimes like to change things up so not all (c)ope is lost.
As for ZZZ, in Seed's teaser short, we get a glimpse of her squad going for a massage and she refuses to step in. Seems like she doesn't like being touched which could lead to some interactions in game. This is especially good because she's the character that has her feet out at all times. She drops today as a pull and I'm gonna get her. I haven't really been playing 2.0 so any previous mentions are appreciated!
