So, Staffing of OAV4? MK General Director, not the Character Designer?

[جبريل 無道]

Was looking at the credits on TenchiMuyo4th.com and noticed MK isn't the character designer this time around, instead as General Director.  Heard this a while back that Takeshi Oda is doing that role.

Other than that one pic and character designs, I haven't seen anything from OAV4 that looks drastically different than MK art, although obviously not identical.  I wonder how this will bode for the series and why this is the case?

I wonder how MK will do in General Direction, I see some weakness in storytelling possible although it could be that he improved with his GXP novels.  It's obvious this series could be only 4 eps, or longer if successful, it's a very different environment now than anime of the 90s.
