Legacy
After RahXephon, Izubuchi went back to design work. His assistant director Tomoki Kyoda's became chief director on Eureka Seven. Mitsuo Iso went on from his experience on RahXephon to become the chief director of DennÅ Coil. RahXephon has been referenced by at least one other anime series, which was also produced by Bones.
When asked whether robot anime following RahXephon had "lived up to the new era" Izubuchi answered "Partially yes and partially no" and regretted the focus being on financially safer remakes instead of on new creations.
