There are 4 Screenplay writers who don't show under any Anipoke-sode past XYZ:
Yukiyoshi Ōhashi
Shinzō Fujita
Junki Takegami
Hideki Sonoda
18 out of the 23 responsible for the XY Storyboards vanished as well.
24 out of the 33 XY Assistant Directors.
And finally, the Animation Directors:
53 out of 61 weren't utilized or involved Past XY.
In total: 99 Staff members haven't been involved past the end of XY and the first weeks of SM.
