- Yzak should have been used much more.
- (THIS ONE IS IMPORTANT) Kira should have died in episode 34. I am NOT saying that because I hate Kira (which I do), I am saying it because from every single point of view it would have made the series better. Kira has just been "there" in Destiny. HIS ROLE IS FUCKING OVER. He isn't even a character anymore, just a robot which can destroy anything.
- MWU SHOULD HAVE STAYED DEAD
- Nobody should survive explosions
I agree with most of that. I would rather have no characters from SEED having major roles in this show, even Yzak, and I really think that Kira dying in 34 wouldn't have saved the show, he needs to be gone sooner, I really do think you said 34 just cuz you hate him. The AA crew would have been affected differently I guess, but Athrun would have been the same afterward since he thought he was dead, and as the series progressed and Athrun went back to AA it would have been Athrun on one side with Rey and Shinn on other which would have put AA in an impossible situation in Orb battle.

I think if you wanna save GSD from Kira you have to get rid of him at a much early point in series. I think GSD would have been much better if Kira and the whole AA crew hadn't been involved like they were. I think the show would have been better if they didn't try to split the focus amoung so many people, and focused only on Minerva with Athrun never joining them. Then we could be getting Shinn developing and eventually turning against the chairman resulting in a battle between him and Rey which would be much better then Athrun and Kira vs Shinn and Rey, if for no other reason then Kira has very little connection to Shinn and Rey other then having battled both at some point. If they really wanted old characters in they could have Shinn run into Kira or someone else make a cameo. Heine could have stayed with Minerva longer, but I still think he should have died but maybe closer to end of series.

Wow that ended up as much more typing then I intended, and really my ideas are prolly terrible but I would have preferred almost anything that tried to break away from SEED characters and be its own series.
