But that's the thing, Yazan wasn't a nutcase in Zeta, he was a soldier. He may have enjoyed taking out his enemies, but he never acted out and out crazy like he did in ZZ.

Haman is a completely different person from Lalah though. Besides, Haman having any sort of attraction to Judau is totally unbelievable, she's 7 years older than him!

I haven't finished Turn A, so I can't comment on that. But in CCA and Victory, you still had a final battle where the two went all out against each other. Amuro and Char's battle reaches a climax in CCA, and Uso's battle with Chronicle and Katejina reaches a climax. Judau and Haman's final battle just kind of fizzled out; Haman didn't really go all out and Judau didn't even really defeat her. It was just a really weak ending to the whole thing.

And that anti-climactic remark goes for the whole finale. In addition to the Judau/Haman fight, I was also disappointed with how the Mark II and Zeta go down so easily and lamely. Though at least the Zeta still got one last shot off, which was badass.
