MSG Iron-Blooded Orphans - G-Tekketsu

Yeah, it was a good show.

I'm not entirely sure what to think of this ending. It's annoyingly realistic. I'm okay with the MCs dying, especially when Mika left behind a kid, and I'm certainly happy Iok and Nobliss died, but otherwise this simply gave the feeling that in the world the strong win, regardless of who is right or whose actions are justified. Rustal didn't found a military dictatorship, which is of course good, but otherwise he was a totally moralless and unscrupulous person, so seeing him as the first leader of the new order, even if it was more democratic than the old one, still feels the same as how the Eastern Europe was left to be raped by the Soviet Union after the WW2. Thus we had Kuudelia shaking hands with the man who ordered Mikazuki killed by using illegal weapons. There was absolutely nobody left who could have stopped Rustal anymore, so he could do whatever he wanted, like make himself the biggest hero. It would have been good if Kuudelia at least had erected a nice monument to Tekkadan in a public place. If Mars gained independence, it would be just the kind of thing they would do in reality. It's bullshit most of Mars would have bought Rustal's propaganda too deeply. A newly independent nation would need their own heroes.

history isnt wrote by who was right, only by those who where left...

we all know that kudalia is just making the best of the situation, she knows that rustal ordered mikas execution but at the same time she know that this is the best deal she can get to mika's cause, in the end he fought for a new future and if kudelia thrown it away it would be meaningless.

this is by far the best possible ending in a gundam show, its not an heroic ending by the main characters where they conquer evil, but by standing to their own principals and dying for it they opened the way for a better future generation. they were the rebels that didnt got the chance to be corrupted by power and thus stayed true to their own purpose which is, like some people said already, more realistic.

akihiro is still one of the most developed side characters in a gundam show i ever saw, he looked like a generic muscle guy for the whole time but was rewared one the the most satisfying deaths in all time, killing iok by his own hands in the last second!

seems like the most devoted to tekkadan are still running in the shadows, under taiwaz wing maybe i hope?

anyone knows if we will be blessed with a new gundam movie ala gundam 00?
