Then again, maybe he doesn't care and just wants to sell shiny robots. *shrugs*

Edit: Here's hoping Endless Waltz: Glory of the Defeated isn't a let down. *sighs* IMO, they should go the same route as they did with three interquels. Those were three different stories falling into basically the same time period so you just picked the one you preferred. I hope EW: GotD paints a prettier picture. -_-
Everyone's entitled to their opinion.

While shipping has contributed greatly to GW's lasting popularity, I admire Sumisawa for creating a story that will truly expand AC and not just cater to certain parts of the fan-base.

I'm looking forward to Glory of the Defeated too but won't really care if it doesn't feature or reinforce popular couples.
