I have to say, no. Why should people have to lose their characters (and with them their house, irreplaceable items/mounts/minions [The Wind-Up Shantotto, Wind-Up Brickman and Merchandise items up to 2015 are still in "Expired Supply" status, Furniture is in "Limited Supply" and only because they can be sold on MB] and story progress [Keep in mind the MSQ is from Level 1 to 60 is long enough for the devs to considering a Jumping Potion]) simply because you think you are entitled to use a name from an anime? I feel like that would deal a more decisive blow on this games life span than any P2W feature they would dare to implement (like the aforementioned potion), especially giving Housing as a precedent.

Then again, I might be biased since I did took a long break from the game (started in 2.2, took a break in 2.4 returned a little bit before 3.1 launched).
