well i see where you're coming from, but it really depends on where the series is headed. it's like pulling a ayanami rei type character in a ghost in the shell type series.. it'll be out of place and anti-climatic though i will still like it because i like those characters. this series seems to have a good potential in eventually getting into heavy thought provoking plots about world's current state of affairs as i think it's already headed that way, and that would be very different from what a generic anime series does with its plot. well there's still couple episodes and a movie, i will just stop making predictions here because i might turn out wrong about the whole thing anyway. it might not go nearly as far as i'd hope.
