Thanks, Fallen! Yeah, it's been a long time since I released my last episode so I really felt relieved to return once more.

Technically speaking, Andy already got revived by Moloch himself at the beginning of the Death Arc, and Moloch put his soul right back into his corpse, rendering him into an undead puppet that submit to Moloch's will even retained his own consciousness. There will be more role for Andy, including a flashback which occured during the previous sub arc, which explained why he stayed absent after Blood Moon Sub Arc. I once tried to add it to this episode, but it became a cut content that would be refitted into the next.

Luke, in my mind, is actually an underrated character during the original series' run, particularly after the event of Ancitif where he got possessed by the demon and went for Macey Irving. There are many questions remained uncertain and unresolved in the original series, and the last time we saw Luke was him lying on the floor when Ancitif moved out to possess Macey. Whether he was dead or not remained ambiguous, and he never got any mention from Season 2 onwards. I already planned to make Luke's traumatized experience a much longer term ever since the conception of this story, so we will see more of him. Yes, this experience will eventually drove him into a darker path. We'll see.

The UKA already set its motion when Selina was younger, with Gladius assisting Phyllis and paved her road towards becoming La Gloton. And yes, Dark Arzonia is an equaivlant to Vira in LOTM: WoSH and there will be explaination in the future about her origin story.

However, (spoilers follow) the difference is that the Dark Arzonia's origin is actually a result of  body swap  (because of the alternate Stone of Wisdom) instead of  possession  so the alternative Maria's soul was NOT inside Dark Arzonia (similar to Goku Black's origin). It was someone else that played Dark Arzonia's role, and the alternate Maria's soul was placed within Gladius' machine which feeds on human despair, and he will activate it once he gained Helene's Stone of Wisdom and revealed his true nature to the heroic resistance he led. That's the difference between Dark Arzonia and Vira, and the scene would be even MORE heartbreaking. (spoiler ends)

I actually planned to add the scene in Helene Arc from Harvest Saga, where Gladius would be confronted, although a special episode about it (like those for Kotor'si and Yuri's past) would be considered instead.

So glad that you like it. Thanks for helping out in this episode :D
