Energy source of spaceships and thruster fuel source of mobile suits: While nice to know, is probably just fine left to the imagination.
SEED: Definitely needs to be explored more. Newtype: Doesn't really exist in CE, just think of it as Al Da Flaga's freak mutation that is passed on to his son, his clones, and Kira (Ulen, what did you do? ). (And did Prayer from Astray also have it? ) Coordinator reproductive issue: Doesn't really need to be explained. Somehow, the genetic engineering done to make a Coordinator introduced some flaw that is apparent in the third generation. If they know why it's happening, they could probably find the solution. It's a viable problem setup ready to be used. Earth's energy crisis: What needs explaining? The Earth relied on nuclear fission technology for certain important functions of their society. The Neutron Jammer took out that power source, and apparently that was enough to cause many deaths. The Neutron Jammer Canceller resolved that issue. Mars faction: An Astray addition. Let the Astray deal with that. Space Whales: A wonder of the CE universe and helped encouraged movement to space, I believe. It doesn't need to be explored. As for what the Astray has on this subject, well, let the Astray handle that too. |

and for those who ask for the Space Whales, you can watch them fully explored in Macross 7 OVA . I would rather they leave them in Astray manga. I'm worried that if they introduced a living alien species in the main series, next thing you know, there will be a SEED version of A wakening of the Trailblazer .

It's not about trauma, it's about trust issue. If ZAFT soldiers knew that this guy were attacking their fellow soldiers, could they trust their lives to him that quickly?
Also, I think Kira himself would rather not deal with the publicity that would bring to him, both the good and the bad. |

As for the publicity, that can't be helped since he's always on Lacus' side to protect her and some ZAFT higher-ups already knew that they have a "special" relationship. There's no way you can hide it forever .

There are hints of other possible Newtypes in Astray though. So although rare and not as prevalent as UC, there are Newtypes in CE that aren't merely the spawn of Al Da Flaga. And I think Prayer exhibited the strongest Newtype abilities in CE, he even telepathically communicated with another person with only his mind, no tech involved. And as for Astray-related stuff, it's part of CE. I said CE in general is unexplained, not merely the tv series. Besides I really hope they decide to animate Astray. |

Unless there were really confirmation about their status, they were just bunch of people with moderate to high spatial awareness. And the problem is, what is defined as Newtype in CE ? People who get Newtype flash ? Or that include people who can use remote weapon like bits or Dragoon ? Also, there wasn't any indicator or clear cut requirement for using remote weapon because even normal people can still be implied to use it. And note that Mobius Zero or any other CE suits that use remote weapon doesn't use something that only Newtype from UC can use like Psycommu. You have Sting as the proof for that (I don't think he was ever implied to have strong spatial awareness) |

I think no matter what publicity he’ll get, it will never faze Kira from protecting his beloved Lacus. Hell, I think he’s already prepared for anything once he wore that uniform and enter ZAFT, including all the negative sentiments he’ll receive. He can’t be picky anymore with his life .

Zaft Aces who are favoured by the chairman of the time tend to get given Gundams, all of the Gundams owned by Zaft were handed out this way (besides the Impulse which was a hand-me-down to Lunamaria at the end, though it started out in the same way).
Since Kira is going to be strongly favoured by Lacus I fully expect him to either keep using the Strike Freedom, or be given a brand new Zaft developed Gundam. |

Yeah, that's what I had in mind too. I can imagine those Sunrise/Bandai Execs nodding in agreement after hearing that idea. Though I assume it'll be more in favor to the new Gundam for kit-sales .

Not to mention i'd put my money on Kira being on the eternal commanding the black tri stars and their Dom's, with Shinn serving with him as his x/o or something like that, assuming Shinn stayed in zaft and didn't head off to orb Quote:

if anything, she is on the council, why?: Acted for peace between ORB and Zaft (mentioned in the end of Destiny) Stopped patrick Zala from wiping out naturals Stopped the EAF/EF/whatever from nuking the flying fuck out of plants Stopped Durandal from nuking the flying fuck out of everyone who doesnt agree with his Destiny plan Makes great music Has a habit of always being right. Oh, and she has a secret super-powerful army that pretty much manages to stop wars on their own. why she isn't chairman: Wouldn't make sense, the Zaft have a high council and some form of election?(Correct me if im wrong here, but isnt it something about one representant from each Plant group?and one chairman) we've never gotten the impression that she is, she had the council outfit mixed with her usual Japan-themed outfit. Hell, she might not even be on the council, she was honored and allowed to return to plant since she opened up a path for communication between Zaft and ORB after the war, maybe she's a honoaru council member and Zaft's ambassador in ORB? or some shit like that, you can speculate on and on. lol |

Why would he not use SF? He's pretty clearly not hiding the fact that he's Lacus's right hand man, and the Freedom/SF became very well known as the symbol of Clyne Factions power. He's probably also Captaining the Eternal, which is probably still crewed by Andy's team.
He's not in Zaft to serve Zaft. He's there to serve Lacus. His interactions with the Zaft rank and file will probably be minimal. |
