Also, you're throwing the term "omake" around way too casually. The term (literally "bonus" or "extra") is used almost exclusively for bonus features in manga and on anime, like the little short skits at the end of some episodes, bloopers, or a couple of the short gag manga that have been included in a few of the databooks.

The anime cutscenes in the games aren't "omake," and neither are the movies. For that matter, neither is the manga tie-in he did for Road to Ninja. That was a one-shot (yomikiri).
