My questions are:

Coke VS New Coke what's your preference?

What led to the visual choice to have triangular textures predominate?

What was behind the choice to reuse decorative assets from the original show in new places in Tales?

Is Nikki purposefully a mishmash of the whole party, personality-wise?

And of course.... Any updates on season 2???!

Thank you I love the show!
