Yes, I know. But you still have to buy Zero-Two's stuff separately. The point being that they only have a month to show off Zero-Two and make kids want his toys, which means any further time spent with Zero-One is wasted.

I'm really glad I waited and binge-watched the last five episodes. The sheer amount of character development was amazing. I can't get enough of Yaiba's newly-discovered personality, and will while other long-dead Humagear have been rebuilt, I honestly have to wonder if they'll have the guts to follow through on the preview. We haven't had something like that in a long time. I could picture her and Aruto getting married, though - IF she ever forgives him for last episode, that is.

And then there's the .Net. Jin remains my favourite in the show, but Raiden reminded me why he's also in the Top 5. I like that Horobi went all dad mode at the end, vowing to destroy humanity while carrying his son. As for our "fourth person who's just there for the numbers", I hope we get to see the conversation she had with Fuwa. And It's nice to see Ark getting its butt kicked, although it's hard to completely erase what amounts to a sentient virus just by blowing up its primary host. It looks like that will be addressed, though.


I knwo this show's had its flaws, and there are still a lot of unanswered questions, but the multiple sub-arcs are starting to pay off, and I feel the writers really tightened up their game when they learned that several episodes would be cut due to covid. Perhaps if they'd had similar restrictions earlier on, we wouldn't have had the pacing issues that plagued the s3econd third of the season.

I'm waiting in dread and anticipation for #42 and wondering just how much longer they'll be able to keep up this pace without the usual fumble.
