musouka, I love your taste! Thomas' Heart rules.
I've been spoiler free about ep26 except for the
No 2ch, and I even thin my eyes when I read spoiler posts here too, lol.
Anyway, about the character's choices and relationships in ep25:
Spoiler:
I agree it was a little boring almost everyone chose female.
And the show seems like it's going to end without any passionate couples! Or any angsty relationships! Around episodes 10-18 I was expecting character development and interesting character interactions, but the height of the show seems like it was the very beginning (eps 2 is my all time favorite), and the middle of the show. The last few felt very dry for me, almost like "explanation episodes". Bah.
I guess I like my Mai HiME angst and cheap drama.
Studio Deen doesn't seem to really make original animes, and the staff seems pretty inexperienced. I'm excited what sort of show they'll make next.
