I like that moderate reply of yours. It’s much better than some other people who are prone to verbal diarrhea yet spout nonsense.

No worries, man. I don’t edit or delete your comments. Frankly, I appreciate dissident voices, as it helps propel discussion; I just hope most dissident voices are as articulate and concise as you are, as from what I’ve experienced others who share your stance only serve to weaken it.

Thank you. I appreciate your comments.

In terms of the overall series, it is a rabid dog which I care not what happens. Sad, really, because it had intriguing characters. Still, it has perks.

Gundam 00 has totally taken me over, and I’m just going to overlook Geass as a Sunrise project.

Like another commentator mentioned during an earlier discussion, I still think the overall plot does have more coherence than what seems to be popularly acknowledged in the blogging sphere, rather than assuming or implying the writers to be…intellectually challenged, to put it nicely, or just calling them morons.

Even though many of the finer details can be a problem, when the action is rushed (the show is blatantly trying to do too much in too little time by now, the time slot change led to a rather unnecessary recycling of past themes and plot elements, too many characters, etc), directly omitted or given subpar explanations, that doesn’t always mean that they are “senseless”, although they can definitely push (or break, I suppose) one’s suspension of disbelief sometimes regardless.

For example, while I can understand seeing Nunnally’s return as somewhat anti-climatic, I did not find it “senseless”, since there are a number of ways to explain it (the decoy shuttle being one). I don’t know if the show will end up taking the time to do so, convincingly or otherwise, it may or it may not…but that is definitely not making me pull my hair out, figuratively speaking, or to go down with a laughing fit.

Of course, sometimes I do…but in general, I didn’t.

As for what one may want for the characters, irrationally speaking, I addressed the subject in a previous reply, so I can’t help but agree with wanting good things for the main characters, though one should be aware of the practical limits of such optimism.

tl, dr: I already commented on the main subject, but wanted to (re-)address other issues a bit. No, you don’t need to agree with me at all, surprisingly.
