And if you think into the future of possible Anima Weapon "rip offs"; can you imagine how awful some of those glow-less weapons will look? For example, the WHM Anima weapon sprouts green wings when unsheathed...but without that elaborate glow...it's pretty boring.
This, pretty much. I completed four Zeta weapons, but this doesn't bother me since the crafted ones don't have the glow, which is what I like about the Zeta weapons.
