Would rather have Mu die at the end of SEED. His return was worse than Kira surviving an explosion to the face and stabbed in the cockpit. At least Kira's bloody and broken helmet wasn't ever shown floating around like Mu. That and Neo Roanoke was horrible and wished he was as cool and magnificent as Rau. Especially when we learn that Neo wasn't even real and was just a brainwashed Mu that was being used by the Feds.

Though it's strange that Char never acknowledges the Red of Shinn and Rey who are ZAFT reds as well... Guess it's because they aren't hip enough to sport the red paint. |

Okay, kids? There's a difference between being the Char of a story and being a Char Clone. Pretty much all that's needed to be a Char Clone in a Gundam series is to wear a mask and be mysterious and/or occasionally antagonistic. Oftentimes a Char Clone doesn't pilot a Gundam and usually relies on ace custom mobile suits before switching over to a Gundam, if they do at all.
Yes, Athrun can be seen as the "Char" of Gundam SEED, but he is very much not a Char Clone--he hits none of the qualifications for it beyond the antagonism. Rau Le Crueset is SEED's Char Clone, as is Mu La Flaga/Neo Roanoke in Gundam SEED Destiny.

I guess they couldn't think of a way for perfect Strike to lose in the timespan the original soundtrack allotted.
As for ISWP, they probably didn't want to have to redo all those scenes where Cagalli is following Athrun around, and later going to pick Kira up. |

The only issue would be how does Mu protect the Archangel since Perfect Strike has no shield. They should have found a way because the Orb battle is shaping up to be the best part of the remaster. Especially if there are no new scenes for the final battle. |

Destiny really could have used a Haman type character that screwed both factions over to clean up and take over once the fighting has ended. Rau doesn't count since he just wanted everyone to kill each other and not take over and rule Though I'm guessing Logos was supposed to play that role but they were just crazy racists that had to use ignorance to do what they wanted while Haman had entire people willingly bowing to her and she never hit her intentions. |

And given that Athrun is a de facto Char Clone in both Seed and GSD... I don't know if they would go through this, though, out of fear of angering the Lacus fanatics.
