there seems to be some significance to the credit order but unlike the previous film it's not nearly as strict or clear-cut.

I do think this is a similar situation to post #255376 where either Youko Suzuki or Atsuko Inoue did most of the avant title scenes and Kudo redrew important cuts, such as the first one. 2nd half also likely has a lot of corrections where Mayuri sprints toward the machine.

He wasnt credited for genga either fwiw
