Regarding the "memory call" — I got the impression that it was actually undoing the original wipe (though on a rewatch I realized from the dialogue that Akira might have gotten his memories back on his own anyway, in which case another wipe would probably be more plausible).
I felt like I was watching the ending to Stand Alone Complex 2nd GIG at points during this episode (missiles flying from cruisers, interceptions in midair...). Not that that's a bad thing by any means.
