I was talking about Saki and Satoru clearly working towards change and believing in that change. This was shown, not just spoken.

Regarding Akane, I felt the last episode nailed her character extremely well, and allowed me to understand her dilemma. Akane believed wholeheartedly in the laws that upheld her society, because she saw them as the gestalt of her countrymen's feelings, past and present. Rightly or wrongly, she felt duty-bound to protect the laws that encapsulated her people's wish for a peaceful and harmonious society.
Yes that is what Akane said and they were mighty pretty words but here is a question what law would that be?

Sybil system is the law that currently upholds her society. Sybil society is what creates a "peaceful" society. Is the sybil system going to take down the sybil system? Is there some other law out there that Akane believes in? There is no such thing as universal system of law and laws themselves can be corrupt.
