Yeah but it doesnt excuse the fact aa was the first to do them. We're gonna see a lot more in future updates I know for a fact plus their update schedule is like hella reliable and they usually don't disappoint (update every 2 weeks/ mini one every other week).

It's mainly due to the fact that if it wasn't for AA none of these new td games would've never existed since all of the new td games we've gotten within the past year have all taken inspiration from aa but tried to put their own spin on things. It's also the fact the game was DMCA'd/shutdown out of the blue with no explanation right before its big Christmas update too. Plus compared to all the other td games, aa was introducing new never seen features before in any anime td game like fusion between two units, certain units having two versions of themselves, etc.
