Regarding the new Suki de MV and the FC edition - well, rights for the manga might not be cheap or even the mangaka Rumiko Takahashi herself might have a say in this, how it's going to be monetised (ok on youtube, but not ok for avex to make bigger money through it with a release worldwide?).
Takahashi is one of the most famous Japanese mangaka in Japan and one of the richest Japanese persons altogether...
Great collab for Kuu tho as it's a wide known and popular old manga.
She picked Suki de for it as the lyrics fit the best to the story.
Kuu directly worked with Rumiko Takahashi for this and Takahashi thinks Suki de is a powerful and fitting ballad.
Guess they might have worked on this collab for a longer time and now that it was made possible they simply put it on the next release being out as a special, lol.
