tenshi and exploit as a series may be over but the character will still have the depth that they're known to have.

and exploit is one of my proudest creations just for how interesting i made him due to a misunderstanding of his prime counterpart of all things.

exploit really just wants to be validated. he was birthed by accident by his father (which may be changed once i get enough info of current unused to be able to rewrite exploit's backstory) so he basically is living his life trying to convince people- no. convince HIMSELF that hes worthy to exist.

exploit is one of those characters that i tried to make as unlikable as possible because before that point i never had a straight up "Disney villain"-like character... even then i dont think exploit would fully fit into that category.

but he was a step in the right direction in my opinion.

i also wanted to give the impression of how pathetic exploit really is once you peel back the deceit and bravado.

sure, hes good at what he does mostly. but he beats people down to build himself up... and even then that doesnt give him the recognition he wants to have.

then, i had the idea of making after hours and that was when i really pushed the idea of exploit being this deceptive jerk and making him as VILLAINOUS as possible.

then everyone started the whole wanting exploit dead thing and i was just like "welp. i guess i did my job right"

because at the time, exploit was supposed to be an anti of surface unused before i realized unused changed moralities after U&M started. so i tried to correct exploit's morality to the best of my abilities in episode 5.

i didnt expect the amount of people that were genuinely invested at that point
