I think it is more implied that Darkworld is in a seperate reality from the Different Dimention that Kozaki lives in but also has access too. It is recognized in the lore that he is the lead REASERCHER and authority on Darkworld. This indicates it is something generally unfamiliar in the reality he exist within. The Different Dimention itself is expressed as a chaotic in-between space where many interdimentional travels mistakenly wind up. He and other scientists have there base here and it makes sense he is using it as a semi-remote location for R&D experiments related to other dimentions. Weve seen the magical dimentions also act as a seperate relatiy and magical scientist seems linked as well, developing experiments alongside Kozaki. It seems this is a different dimention research facility for collective efforts. Kozaki seems focused in the Darkworld himself and rebuilt Gagagigo using Darkworld technology. He also created Giant Kozaki this way and implicably other experiments.

imo, it doesn't even need a series revamp, it just needs *sane* support. maybe give it 3 new cards; 1)A new core card that carries the "iron core of koa'ki meiru" name while in deck and hand. maybe give it the ability to recycle or search if sent from hand to grave ,to give synergy with the costs 2)Give them a continuous spell or trap that acts like a fusion of koa'ki meiru prototype and core transport unit, but with a better protection effect that maybe takes a page from the level 5 (and doesn't just trigger in the end phase) 3) finally give them a new field spell that doesn't have a maintenance cost, searches IF a koa'ki meiru gets destroyed or tributed (thereby triggering off maintenance checks, effect costs, AND standard destruction outside of end phase), and maybe gives an additional boost ala overclocks reveal effect. the deck could literally stabilize with just that, and maybe some new decent non-rock monsters to fill out other variants. the deck is already absolutely lethal to light and dark decks, and has great stun elements, giving them more consistency backrow is the only real thing they need.

You can reveal 1 "Iron Core of Koa'ki Meiru" in your hand, then target 1 face-up monster your opponent controls; destroy it, and if you do, you can Special Summon 1 "Koa'ki Meiru" monster with ATK less than or equal to the destroyed monster's original ATK from your GY in Defense Position. You can only use each effect of "Koa'ki Meiru Dragonecro" once per turn.

Effect2: OPT: You can add 1 “Iron Core” card from your deck or GY to your hand, except “Iron Core Refinery”. Effect3: If this card is removed from the field, destroy all non-“Koa’ki Meiru” Monsters on the field and in the hand and send them to the GY. _________________________ Iron Core Pick Axe Equip Spell Effect1: This card can only be equipped to a “Koa’ki Meiru” monster. Effect2: A “Koa’ki Meiru” monster equipped with this card is not destroyed during the End Phase. Effect3: You can reveal one “Iron Core” card or “Koa’ki Meiru” Monster in your hand to Special Summon one “Koa’ki Meiru” monster from your deck or GY. Thoughts?
