Brightman: Quite a sad state of development for humanity. That we would always be doomed to repeat our same mistakes over and over again. And an interesting idea that the colony drops after Gundam X would be a different apocalypse than the rest, and that humanity keeps reaching for the sky, only to destroy themselves time and time again. Although every time you destroy civilization ... where would they keep getting the raw materials to rebuild if it means it's harder and harder to extract? =\

Just finished the series now and thoughts:

Wow this series had an incredible ending, and brings Tomino's work with Gundam full circle in a way with his final installment in the saga. In a very sad, depressing way, as mentioned above. That BGM music for the last 5mins of the last episode is incredible as well. Is that the "Moon" song they were talking about earlier? And the two Turn Gundams somehow turn into some weird cocoon apotheosis or something? Weird...

Let me see if I got this straight then:
-Guin Lineford nurses Merrybell back to health and lives a life of exile with her on a yacht.
-Keith and his GF get married and half a child with the Grandmother Valleine finally there.
-Fran and Joseph also get married and have a child.
-Kihel Heim fulfills Dianna's wish of living out the rest of her natural life on Earth, and takes her place as "Queen Dianna" on the Moon, living there with Harry.
-Loran goes off and lives in seclusion with the real Dianna Soriel, taking care of her as her body apparently is rapidly deteriorating. (Needs a cane already?)
-Sochie is left all alone, with her love for Loran unrequited.

Dianna had a wedding ring on her finger, does that mean she married Loran as Kihel Heim? In order to keep up the charade, she chose to live in seclusion with him so nobody would ever find out the switch had been made again? Sochie loses her love, her sister is now gone away as well, and both her parents are dead -- stuff seriously sucks for Sochie =\

Such a sad ending ;_;
