2 yeats after but.. it doesn't change a bit the detail that those works are NOT IN-UNIVERSE CANON.

That's how it works. Just like with Sailor Moon and Ikuhara. Ikuhara is a great director who produced that masterpiece of an anime that is Shojou Kakumei Utena. But in Sailor Moon, he was doing something too personal, too different from the original plan.

This took him out of the work, because it doesn't matter how much you are good at something, but if you turn something from others to your own personal universe and betray the original, you aren't gonna be canon.

End of the story.
