Hi everyone! Sorry this isn't a new chapter… again.

So, after going through the comments about "To Reboot or Not To Reboot, that is the question," I see a lot are all for rebooting and some are middle of the road.

During this time, I had considered what changes could be done for a reboot and I think I might have something so I believe I will be moving forward with the reboot.

In that regard, there were some who were either indifferent or against the harem aspect. So I'll tell you here and now, IF, and I repeat IF the harem part goes forward, it's going to be a MAXIMUM of 3 girls. If not then don't worry. Many have said they have read many harem fics on this site that weren't any good. I myself haven't really and have somewhat done a harem fic myself with Rosario + Vampire. Again, IF it goes through, I have been taking notes from another series that balances the element pretty well: Trapped in a Dating Sim: The World of Otome Games Is Tough for Mobs/ Otomegē Sekai wa Mobu ni Kibishii Sekai Desu. Now, this isn't set in stone, I'd like to hear from you about these conditions.

On another note, I'd like this reboot to be the first of a series with the possibility of two spiritual spin-offs of Iron-Blooded Devil by using the two IBO spin-offs: IBO Gekko (Steel Moon) and Urdr's Hunt. As with this story, I'll most likely be using harem anime/manga to keep with the theme but I'm still undecided of which to use, if anyone has suggestions, let me know but there are some criteria that must be met:

1) A plausible reasoning for the use and existence of Mobile Suits. A good example being To Love-ru, aliens would mean plenty of space battles, alien mechs and giant monsters to fight, whereas a bad example would be High School DxD, while fun there wouldn't be much reason for Mobile Suits outside of giant monsters but those are few and far between.

2) There needs to be means to maintain Mobile Suits. They are NOT super magical robots that could fight on forever, Mobile Suits require repairs, tune-ups, regular maintenance, fuel and ammunition to keep going. And these issues cannot and will not be 'magic'd away.'

3) If a suitable harem series can't be found, others will be taken into consideration on the condition they meet the first two criteria

If these spin-offs go forward, they will mostly be self-contained and won't feature Gundams from the others (Example: neither Astaroth or Marchosias/Hajiroboshi will appear in IBD nor will Barbatos in their stories.) Now while a crossover with these stories is not in the cards, it's not off the table either; the future is a fickle thing.
