So i would,t let go on Endou that easily. I don't really think Endou alone is a large reason as to why the first season was popular. GO and its sequels did a lot of things that set it apart from the original, and not for the better. Personally, for instance, there were only a few times when I felt chills in GO compared to the original series (Galaxy and GO were especially good at this in their early portions, not so much later). There was less emphasis on character and the inclusion of Keshin really made a lot of members less relevant as the series went on (which is why in Galaxy they started fresh).

But yeah, I agree. They should see what worked in the original series and try to build off of that. Maybe rethink how they're going about their captains, too, because Tenma...he just didn't cut it. Mainly because he never really did anything...except at the beginning of GO.
