Regarding your post about Axl and I-No: Could that be the reason why I-no told Axl not to dig too deeply into her past back in XX and Judgment? Was it because she subconsciously had an idea of who he was and his relevance to her, but didn't want to properly deal with it?

If you look at the entire story from I-No's perspective:

Everything began with the war between the Original Sage and the Universal Will.

A proxy conflict that Mankind would NEVER be fully aware of, except for I-No herself.

And the result would essentially split I-No in half.

The half that was given actuating power for change was cut off.

And the half that was "almost powerless" was made "human".

The rest, I-No had to piece together herself, and she was stuck travelling from Era to Era in order to figure all of this out.

She was even forced to "live" in an era in which the world was completely devoid of Human life and Gears roamed the wastelands of what was once Human Civilization.

This is the "Grey Future" that I-No spoke of in Xrd.

All because she inadvertently manipulated the kindness of a Young Soldier (Ky Kiske) back during the Crusades.

It was at this time that she had to learn how to master what "little" power she had and manipulate Time itself in order to change that Future.

But doing so was very "boring" to her.

All aspects of "being human" that should have been stimulating to anyone else in her position felt meaningless, because that aspect of her heart was cut off from the rest of what made her existence complete.

The more time she spent "gaining power", the more bored she got, even managing to kill off some of the most talented individuals in the world in the process (Dr. Faust and Ramlethal Valentine, to name a few).

Eventually she decided to make the world "Game Over" and to do so, she would need to enlist the Potential Power of the Original Sage's Protégé' : Asuka R. Kreutz.

But in HER current timeline, Kreutz was imprisoned by the Gears he himself had created, chained up in an underground Gear Plant facility, Karma he himself had accumulated.

Of course she was curious why someone so talented ended up imprisoned by his own creations. How pathetic could you possibly be to end up in that situation?

All the power she was given to her, while still something of a mystery to her, was all handed to her on a silver platter.

Why was she all-powerful? Why was she immortal?

The more time she spent "working under Asuka" the more educating the experience was... though she always felt like her drive and purpose were meant for a "bigger future".

Even if she could relate to a fellow Immortal like Raven, her emotions were still dried up, she could still emote, and she still could "feel", but she couldn't "experience" the true essence of being human.

It was like eating gourmet food and not being able to taste any of it.

So when she met Sol Badguy, Asuka's Rival, she had an axe to grind with him.

At first, it wasn't personal, though she felt a sense of loyalty to Asuka just like Raven did (believing in the Promise of Salvation that Asuka spouted).

But just like Asuka's odd position, Sol was even more of a mystery:

How could a man blessed with Gear Cells (power and immortality) spurn his very own existence? How could he kill and murder his own Gear-kind?

Sol was even making Weapons of Mass Destruction AS A HOBBY... (the OutRage). What kind of human does this and still picks a fight with those who treated him so well?

I-No wasn't able to grasp the finer points of Sol's Human nature... and soon enough they butted heads. I-No developed a heated hatred for Sol that would last for some time.

Meanwhile, in various timelines, a familiar face kept popping in and out of I-No's memory.

Her past was so distant and so blurry, she may as well not have ever been Human in the first place... so who exactly WAS Axl Low?

To I-No he was a weak pathetic excuse of a man. He ran away at any wiff of trouble, cried his heart out, and used underhanded and almost cowardly ways to sneak his way out of a pinch.

And he STILL had the gall to flirt with women around him!?

Even if I-No had memories of loving a man in her past... those memories were so far removed from her present self they hardly felt relevant.

I-No needed a purpose. A reason to exist. Even if she had to steal it herself (Stealing was something she was getting used to doing at this point).

Of course she knew the Universal Will probably wouldn't let her roam as she pleased, so she kept her actions under wraps for a while, only following Asuka's orders whenever it felt safe to.

She was even killing Valentines in different timelines as a hobby at this point (she was that bored).

Eventually, Axl Low escaped from Bedman's clutches (thanks heavily for I-No's assistance, of course).

Normally I-No could care less what the man had to say, but this time around he said something very fishy that caught her ears:

He'd MET with the Original Sage.

Not since her "beginnings" had she encountered the Sage, and he was part of the reason she existed the way she did!

The "Sage" was doing something, and she wanted in!

And of course, anything meant for Asuka's ears were encrypted... so of course I-No wasn't allowed to hear.

But the Future was moving in a new direction, something I-No wanted very badly... something stimulating, something different from all the grey boredom she had experienced up to this point!

That future lead to an encounter with Jack-O'... and a revelation of the Truth about I-No's existence.

She had become one with the World's existence... she was literally a manifestation of the Backyard itself.

So much potential power, and no way to know how to use it.

Asuka had his own plans to make her "even more human" than she originally was.

But that was even more boring than her current life.

Only one person could give her the "Future" she desired... the "Power" she desired.

Sol Badguy had already put down the Universal Will at this point, so it was here and NOW that she could take her chance!

Her first encounter with the Original Sage after so much time had passed was different from her initial expectations.

In fact, Happy Chaos half-expected her to kill him for what he'd done to her in the first place.

It WAS his FAULT, after all...

But if anyone knew the true implications of I-No's existence, it was him.

More than anyone else, Happy Chaos understood I-No, and understood what she had become, not to mention what she was meant to be.

Or at least, that was the "tripe" he fed I-No.

And she ate up every last morsel of it.

Her desperation to become something beyond human and understand humans at the same time was like burning a candle at both ends.

Would there be anything left to burn?

In her final moments, I-No saw the U.S. President's eyes look keenly at her desperation. The eyes of someone who knew nothing but sorrow and misery, a desire for dignity, and yet denied even that.

As well as the weeping eyes of a man who would have loved her, even if she wasn't the woman from his original timeline.

I-No's future brought her to her swift demise, but at the same time, her Past still existed somehow...

A past she had forgotten even still remained.

She herself had contradicted her own existence... a desire to understand a part of herself that wasn't SUPPOSED TO BE UNDERSTOOD.

Instead, the paradox that was I-No was undone... and the true life of Megumi Saito could now begin in earnest.

As for Axl Low and Happy Chaos... the former was finally able to keep his promise... while the latter took a roundabout way of keeping HIS promise to I-No!

Here’s a Graffart collab with Cardfight Vanguard DivineZ

[inkymari]

i just think that the idea of Mikoto developing a sapphic crush on Megumi is silly and cute

If we're going about that rock influence, then we obviously have to include the case that actually included a rock band backing, where Gocchin performed Daite Yo Please Go On with MKB in Hello☆Pro On Stage! 2007 "Rock desu yo!"

Once again, the crowd energy makes a huge vibe difference, too. Simpering femme shit will never be engaging with the audience in the same way. Even Kobushi never rose to MKB's heights for this kind of pure attitude.
