They already worked together on Rain Code prior to this.

I think our perspectives on this can get warped by how long it takes for triple A games to get made nowadays. For modest titles this seems reasonable, and probably keeps the lights on at Too Kyo.

I rarely see AA studios pumping out as many games in a similar timeframe.

Not back to them in the sense that he's an employee at Spike Chunsoft again. TooKyo games typically shops their games around to different publishers and gets support dev work from different studios on a per game basis. It's kind of like what Sakaguchi did with Mistwalker after leaving Square, except in this case Kodaka and Uchikoshi are still on good terms with the studio they left and work with them at times.
