Yeah, gotta say the "SAL as the last ultimate villains!" is a bit out of left field, unless we do get another season. Which it doesn't look like. Some teasing that they might be up to no good and then pulling out this rabbit at the last minute isn't exactly stellar set-up for a "last big boss villain". Smells like an attempt to make the actual villain (Prospera) seem more palatable, like they tried with the Windpassers in Macross Delta.

On the other hand, SAL funded Ochs under the table to support the DoF terrorist with Lfriths units. And they did that, once again, to take down Benerit. But then again, are we rooting for Benerit in the first place?

I don't know the writing and story wants us to feel about Delling and Kenanji at this point because they're big parts of why this all happened in the first place. Like, Kenanji killed Elnora's husband and we're not going to address that at all?

The show overall was not very clear on who is an antagonist, or better said a lot of people had the antagonist role at one point or another and then the ball was passed to the next person/organization. At least we have a group of nice and good protagonists to rally around, even if they kinda feel like they are only reacting to things just happening to them rather than being a driving force to change the plot.
I still like the series, but the last episodes have brought this issue more to the front for me than the rest of the series did. I guess I expected a bit of a grander story for the finale.

Last episode: We adult can't let the kids die
This episode: Throw the kids into the battlefield against countless deadly drones. Then make them become the live distraction from Haro-Terminators so Miorine can sneak in and guess the password. Judging this episode alone, any trained adult can do what the kids did in this episode, perhaps even better...(loyalty aside, I guess)

Depending on the status of the young protags, not all of them can steer the direction of the bigger plot, which what makes it more relatable & realistic tbh.

I do feel like WFM might've benefitted from stretching the plot out just a little for more world-building and character building before we reached this final arc. It feels like there's just a little bit missing.

Honestly, if someone should sacrifice to save the kids, it should be Delling. He started all this problem in the first place. It's about time he takes responsibility for it.

Since the series seems to want to go after all the Gundam classic story moments, all that is missing now is a colony drop. So on what will Quiet Zero be dropped?
1. Giant laser, sorry energy transmitting satellite 2. Earth because...yeah Earth 4. SAL HQ And I can't get over Prospera's death glare to Miorine when the later said "we will be family, after all". I'm starting to think she wear an helmet mostly to hide her eyes, they are so expressive. |

So here's a question, if each bit has an Eri clone in it.... just how much of the DS can they take off Suletta? Or did it require Eri in the MS only to negate Suletta being cursed? Could the bits help her by taking the brunt of the DS and let Calibarn get to PS 8+? Or is this gonna turn into Gohan going Awakened instead of super Saiyan? Suletta just ascends to a perfect being capable of handling the DS with no drawbacks?
