Spoiler for Freyja = Sheryl?:
All around, I like character development for those in Chaos this episode; I only wish our other lovely Aerial Knights could receive similar treatment. After all, Roid and Keith are the only ones really receiving spotlight on that side. It's painful to watch him in the first half of the episode, though; Spoiler for Heinz:
Depends on where this final showdown will go in terms of what will happen. Because, Spoiler for Brera in Frontier:
Keith could pull this situation off himself for the final episode. |

Ugh, for me this episode was somewhat of a good example of the whole Delta series:
- mix mash of plot lines while adding new ones, - talking, - standing in line and listening to other people talking, - Hayate x Freya shipping, - gasping Mirage with little development, - the one and only interesting thing at the end. There's a ton of things to resolve and only 1 rpisode left. I get the feeling we will get a cgi valkyries fighting galore and a music video epilogue that will try to gives some answers about other characters.

At least the Wright stuff was resolved and did the NUNS stuff, so there's one thing out the way for the finale.

Oh, I'm not implying you should; it's basically my hoping (which is all I could do at this point in Delta) for a brighter outcome (wherein a movie basically ties up loose ends versus this final episode next week).
Because a 2-hour movie could wrap everything up nicely versus a 24-minute episode... |

Fortunately there is a place called "forum" to let people complaining about it, though guess i won't do that a lot since next week is the ending, i can leave this show for a while after that, at least i hope. |

About what I expected from the episode, a "the calm before the storm" type of episode, too bad we had many of those in this series, well at least most of the plot lines and plot holes were resolved (even if not in the best way) to make room for the big battle.
I liked the Hayate and Freya scene, they are great when they are not being stupid , I also liked that Mirage was the one to tell Hayate to go find Freyja, because let's be honest, this was never a real love triangle but in the story we were always shown that Mirage developed feelings for Hayate, but in this episode Mirage realizing that Hayate and Freyja like/love eachother tells Hayate to go with her because of how Freyja's been acting and with that it seems like Mirage has accepted that she has no future with Hayate and she will be able to move on, which is good Now to wait for the subs to understand everything and hopefully at least the last episode will be great.

Mirage had an inkling about Hayate's feelings for Freyja since episode 16 when she asked him about it and then the snow scene.
Episode 17 when she watched Hayate make googly-eyes at Freyja while she was singing onstage and at the beginning of said episode when she watched the exchange of Freyja blushing and Hayate staring at her. Episode 18 when Hayate gave Freyja a thumbs up after they made up. Episode 20 when Hayate kicked the wall because he was angry at himself for making Freyja afraid to sing. That same episode when they were arguing about quitting flying/singing for each other. Episode 23 when Hayate told Freyja to sing and even though he was in pain, he put on a brave front for Freyja. The final straw I believe was episode 24 when Hayate put himself in harms way to protect Freyja from Bogue, then volunteered to die first and his final words to Mirage were to "Take care of Freyja". And lastly, Hayate's smile at the end for Freyja (while Mirage watched the exchange) before he was about to jump to his death. The hints were all there. I'm just glad we were able to avoid all the drama of rejection. Hopefully Mirage will fly freely in the last episode and it'll be her character resolution about how she's been liberated from her problems. |

Yeah, the wrap-up will be rushed, there is almost no way around it. Frontier had non-stop action for 1 1/2 episodes and before that one of the best romance scenes to start out the whole ending.
Delta kinda-sorta has set-up their finale with the last two minutes of this episode. Unless they do a suprise third cour or a direct sequel in a movie, this cannot end but super rushed.

I don't know if it'll have a lot of action when the last episode is called "Eternal Walkure" (which I expect to be more of a song off), tbh. I just expect some Hayate dancing around Keith and Mirage finally breaking free from her stiff piloting style, while everyone else disappears from the battlefield as far as battles go. Spoiler for rumors:

Unless Kawamori is sadistic and plans on a space battle regardless, where Chaos fights Windermere (as in its whole military)... Of course, it'd be a one-sided battle because Chaos is outnumbered and as said NUNS is dead in the water at this point so it's not going to be a good showdown at all. And if Delta is not going for a repeat of Frontier, Quarter will not be showing up as a backup (or their version of "Quarter" LOL). |

I don't think they'll have a big space battle because of the last minutes. It just seems they want to avoid it for reasons (too cliche or budget, whichever ). Also the whole story can be resolved without one, IMO. Even if there's one for Hayate's and Mirage's skills, we wouldn't even see anyone fighting but those two for convenience's sake.
Whatever, I hope we see Hayate dance because it was cool and makes me remember the times Delta had promise.

However, I also want him to shoot down (not kill because it'd go against all he's promising in these final 2 episodes) Bogue. Please,... for the love of god, shoot him down so he'll learn not all earthlings are wastes of space... |
