Perhaps Gen wanted to highlight how different she was from Ginoza, but it's still too vague to actually look like an actual glimmer of hope. I'm all for a second season if one does come out.
I liked the ending, but I would have loved a more clear indication that Akane was spearheading some real change. A few episodes ago, all of Section 1 looked like real badasses, staging a quiet revolt, and undermining the real intent of Sibyl's authority while still outwardly working within the system. I wanted to see that spirit of that chess game continue, and we only got a vague indication that it would.
