Flora Reinhold is a major character in Professor Layton, the sequel Layton's Mystery Journey Anime adaptation featured Luke, Rosa, and even Don Paolo but Flora is nowhere in sight.

Acutally Fudou, Hiroto Kiyama and the orphans, Hiroto Kira, and Atsuya (though dead) appeared in season 2 as well

Lasty, I have no clue on how hated Rika is since I mostly pay attention to the GO side of things, though I can see why she's hated cause she wants Ichinose and other quirks but personally I find hating characters to be a waste of time since well, there not real hence they don't effect the real world, and for the boys, including the ones included on the list of season 2 characters that don't appear on Ares? ALL OF THEM are wasted (especelly Yamino in my opinion)
