Do you think the inclusion of AoT skins paves the way for other media based chapters?

So far, all the licensed chapters have been based on a movie or a game, or a show in Stranger Things case. The AoT skins (other than the Crypt TV stuff, but I think that was adjacent enough in what they were already doing) are the one of the first big IP included in the game that isn't one of the things from before. It's a show, sure, but it's a widly different form of a show. Anime is a far different medium then a live action western show.

So do you think this paves the way for a chapter possibly based off an anime? I don't watch too much anime so I couldn't come up with a good one myself, but I'm sure there are. They've shown they aren't opposed to the artstyle, considering the style of Trickster's trailers and the AoT skins.

How about a chapter based off a book? Popular internet horor?

Maybe even more horror-adjacent things? I wouldn't call AoT strictly a horror show.

Would you even want things from these mediums in the game, or do you think they should stick what they have?
