Maybe they'll start the first/176th episode like they did Magi: The Kingdom of Magic and Naruto Shippuden; with an epic and confusing flash-forward, then the opening, followed by the real plot. Maybe a little re-cap thrown in as well. In all honesty, I wouldn't mind that at all, I think it would be just fine.
