Maybe, but at the same time I think Ishibumi knows more of us likely want to see the characters of the kyoto arc animated a lot more than we want a redo of Volumes 5-7, especially since those who only watch the anime will be confused why they're redoing Season 3's events.

I know I wanna see characters like Yasaka (normal and transformed), Sieg, Gogmagog, Yu-Long, Sun Wukong, Leo and all of Sairaorg's peerage animated. Especially since we don't even have manga images for any of them, descriptions are OK but actually seeing the characters is something I want more.

I mean to one degree, I'm kinda hoping that the Armageddon at Sports Day side story is animated as either part of the season, or as an OVA... I really wanna see what Gabriel looks like already.
