Spoiler for Episode 25:

• Wow, Emile gets downed about thirty seconds into the episode. He's the only one of the Sevens who gets shot, but he's definitely out of action. Truth be told, I expected more than one Seven to get hit.
• Whatever happened to the Edelweiss? Whatever, it probably wouldn't have helped that much in the street fighting.
• I guess Fukuyama Jun is NEVER gonna get Lelouch out of his system. You can CLEARLY see a bit of our Brittanian prince influencing Maximilian's speech.
• Finally a look at Maximilian's reason for the war: revenge for his mother's assassination. Also, from Maximilian's explanation, I'm guessing he revealed to Jaeger the true history of the Valkyria's conquest of Gallia.
• Now that is one frickin' big lance... and it made one BIIIIG mushroom cloud...
• Alicia, those are battle scars if I ever saw them.
• Jaeger tries to desert Maximilian's cause, and pays for it with his life. Damn...
• Oh noes! Alicia is captured!
• Faldio makes his return a bit abruptly, though I wish he didn't have to make my favorite sniper look bad...

This episode was great for action and ending development, and looks like it's leading up to a bloody climax. If there were any flaws in the series' early stages, the late-game episodes are clearly making up for them.

Spoiler for Final Episode:

• A look at all the Sevens... Why does this give me a bad feeling?
• Doesn't look like we're shown anything that'll happen...

Please, oh please, don't let Marina bite the dust...

They did a good job on disappointing me on this one. I'm giving them a standing ovation with tears running down my face.(the series is not even done yet.)
