Clearly that's really why I have an issue with it >_>
Has nothing to do with wanting a coherent narrative in which characters behave somewhat realistically... The fact that you find no issues with text msg traitor girl and Girard just shows you either live in a bubble or you are just taking the opposite stance as me every time for the sake of arguing. Military personnel and their dependents have access to good healthcare, so to have a pilot become a spy to pay for healthcare is dumb and makes no sense.

She took the worst possible course of action which resulted in many deaths, including her own. That was very dumb and irrational when all she needed to do was go up the chain of command with the recording. She would eventually get up to the big shots, and even if they said the same thing as the base commander, which I seriously doubt Algreus would do, then she could always leak it to the media. Once they got involved, there would have to be a formal investigation, Simmons would get caught, the base commander and others would lose their jobs, perhaps even go to jail, and she'd get real justice for Girard.

Overall the concept for AGE has a much better layout than recent gundam-takes, in my opinion. A lot of the other AU series and their side stories feel like patch work and doesn't really feel being part of it. |

In Renai's case it doesn't matter what the base commander would've done since she was being manipulated by that turncoat coward. Quote:
They don't have a lot of time and they waste it with characters that had little to contribute or even if they do they aren't. In Flit's case, everything was paced okay no problem (Loss of colony and Yurin pushed Flit over the edge). In Asemu's case......I dunno but it was somewhat okay. By Kio's case.....it seems to have gotten worse. We got Arisa's kid who I thought would've been co-piloting the AGE 3 with Kio. Shanuala was forgotten after she died and it felt like her words didn't go with Kio. I mean in cases like Renai, it would've made more sense to me if Kio could've used his x-rounder powers to get to her and see why she was so mad. Instead Zeheart got that scene and to top it off it was the base commander who scammed her so it kinda washed the Federations' hands clean in that part. |

There was no point to Largan (well in the manga or novel I think he died so it's fine to treat him as non existent I guess)
Kio's arc.... We get Wootbit, who at first disliked Kio, magic happened they became friends and he suddenly vanishes. Wonderful. Then we have people like that random Yes boy of Zehearts. What is the point of him when you have Fram.... Oh and Zera Gins, the so called GREATEST VEIGAN PILOT EVER. I mean Zeheart could have filled out any role played by him, and Ezelcant basically says in the show that he screwed up and Zera Gins isn't really that important.... And they recycled so many characters for future generations, because they realised they introduced them in a earlier arc for no reason. (I'm looking at you Dique and Yunoa) |

What i don't understand is why they didnt keep the bloody bridge crew for atleast 2 generations, that would make sense, you know, develop them a bit. Largan would've made a perfect Obright if they kept him in the show |

My mistake. The ball wasn't specifically made for him, but still, it some sort of prototype machine and seeing how he slaughtered grunts left and right it's obviously quite powerful. The thing served its purpose after being defeated by Seric and making him look cool, so i fail to see what's so useless about it.
