AKB0048 The Half-Final - Colors

That was a pretty intense final episode. I don't think I'll ever get used to the CGI, but the character moments make it worth it. The combination of music and battle was pulled off to pretty great success, and almost everyone got their moment in the spotlight. Nagisa and Chieri definitely had the strongest character arc, but the others weren't ignored. The comedy was also pretty good; Makoto's moment with jellyfish bust expansion will be remembered by me for a while... for various reasons. The whole Center Novae thing at the end... is everyone in the group going to become one? It would mean more witnesses for what exactly CN causes to happen, assuming any of them come back, and it looks like Takamina will continue to be Takamina for a while longer.

Full of light, sound and color, but also full of meaning, I ended up getting really invested in this finale, and in this show as a whole, to a degree I wasn't expecting. Looking forward to the second season!
