Y'know, there's something that I seem to have caught on or realized or whatever... lately with the Ultra Series. During X and Orb's run, they seem to share one hidden theme: loss of original form.

Later in Orb, it has aa hidden message of itself that was adapted over to Geed: which was the "Going beyond fate" stuff. Episode 7 of Orb is what I'm referring to, although I doubt it's highly significant so I'm not quite sure about this.

Lastly, in Geed, we have the message of: Individuality. Of sorts. Throughout the series, Riku/Geed has been trying to find the identity he has longed for a dang while and ultimately received it. As he journeyed, he finds that there is more to him than he's ever known. He was made specifically for the purpose of gathering the Little Stars and later, as something for Belial to absorb and empower himself, effectively making him nothing more than a pawn that can be sacrificed on a whim.

My point is: Would... would this year's Ultra also adapt this theme? Don't think too much about this however, as it's just one those times where I just realized something and made a big deal out of it.
