Also, the confession that Zeheart was always as unresolved as Asemu and only coax himself into fighting for Ezelcant is a very nice touch. It brings dramatic irony to their relationship throughout Gen 2, as Zeheart was basically in the same position as Asemu, with Ezelcant being his "Flit". From that perspective, Zeheart can be considered a what-if of Asemu if he didn't discover his own purpose and formulate his own ideas.

Which is really a shame. If these points have been brought up in the anime, and sooner, Zeheart could have been an interesting and complex character. Here, he is just a shell, bearing some characteristics of a complex villain that end up seeming just all over the place.
Yeah, think adding those extra lines would have made the scene much more solid.

In the end both of them would have been happier just staying the way they were before racing out into the battlefield. Pushing themselves to fight in order to prove themselves to someone. In the end Asemu broke off from what Flit expected off him and came this far with his own beliefs and goals. Even though Zeheart questioned Ezelcant he got sucked in once more and was destroyed. Definitely could have been Asemu in this situation if he'd just continued to stay the way he had been. Thanks to Woolf was able to stop worrying about not being an X-Rounder and found his own reason to fight.

A good job to Asemu for finding his way and stopping his friend at the end. Of course he'll always be 'that guy who isn't an X-Rounder' .
