You'd be ruined for all other Gundams for ever. Guess I should be glad I started with Wing.

Oh man, Nika totally was the poor girl with no connections who ended up being the only one to stay in jail. The Harem seem like the rich white girls who always get off scot free (even though they were also from Earth and got arrested but had an influential man backing them) .

I saw a theory on Tumblr that the data storm characters without permet marks were just figments of Prospera/El5n's mind, instead of them being actual souls in the afterlife.
Thinking about it more, I think the permet network/data storm act as a digital afterlife (aka a scifi version of what happens when you die to all your stuff on the Internet). There is enough data in there to coalesce it into a recreation of a living person with the right nudge (aka Suletta's magical powers). Those with more data uploaded into the network, like El4n and Eri, have more control/freedom once coalesced. And then you get stuck with the Ship of Theseus paradox. |

The final "battle" (or final mobile suit action as there is no battle) is almost a complete rehash of unicorn (actually it has been following unicorn intensively since the entrance of calibarn). If you haven't seen unicorn, this ending action may give you a wow factor.
But it has reached the point that, will the producer of this show feel uneasy if they meet the staff from unicorn? Like a lot of ppl have said, this is not a bad show. So many questions unanswered tho. And SAL got to be the most incompetent bad guy as they can't do anything afterward. Guess this show is really realistic in showing that money is king XD. Even you got a doomsday weapon, you still have to obey to where the money is as most rich and corrupted authorities want status quo

Not so much follow the money. Just their actions were exposed. As Miorinne stated, take away their motivation for the intervention into Benerit. |

She probably got infected with the data storm in order to communicate with Eri or something

But man is the guy who wrote Unicorn one of the main staff for WfM? Well at least Suletta didn't pull a Banagher Links and actually suffered from the curse of Gundam and it was a decent happy ending for most. |

It was clear that the ending was going to be rushed but Permit being able to dissolve matter and even dissolve the Gundams was something that I didn't see coming. Almost put New type magic to shame.
In the end the main cast pretty much got a happy ending and Prospera even more or less got what she wanted. Didn't expect Shaddiq to take the fall for her too, but he did and the only other punishment's dealt out was Nikka spending 3 years in jail. It's sort of weird she got punished while Shaddiq's harem got away with it all, but whatever. In the WFM was clearly meant to be more charater focused than anything else and it did give me something to look forward to watching on Sundays. That's not to say it did not have more than it's fair share of problems, most of which become clear in the second season.

Wow, space magic and space ghosts... again, but somehow worse... things just happen because fuck it, the show has to end.
3/10 - I would put this show very low on my favorite mecha list, right next to Kyokai Senki, Macross Delta and Aquarion Evol, because each one of those were so bad they felt like a waste of time by the last episode.
