I mean Yutaka Saito and his team does pretty good stuff though, i'd imagine some stuff he had no choice AKA KT situations. If shit goes sideways, always blame KT.
Thing is, i'm not sure if he's involved with DOA6 as much or not since it was outsourced to a Vietnamese studio (I don't know how this works out, better to ask TN or someone knowledgeable behind this). Does someone else do it this time? Masado left so who works with him now? is Saito on it 100%? many questions. TN usually doesn't respond and Shimbori isn't like Harada on being socially active on Twitter where you can ask anything, we don't even know if the new guy has Twitter.
Fun bit here, I heard Masado was the one who liked and brought up the fan costume contest idea to the team to even make it happen, but since he's gone and left for another company, I guess Saito takes over the idea in the future? man I don't know.
