Figured I might as well create a thread for the latest episode.

What do you guys think are the odds of season 3 happening? People seem to think it might happen but I just don't see what they would do with all that runtime, it very much feels like we are building up to a conclusive finale.

I was thinking we may get a third season until I watched this episode. It looks like everything will get wrapped up by episode 24. Maybe a movie if they drop some big new reveal in the last episode.

Same, pretty sure everything is getting wrapped up, still I can't help but feel like that's a lot of stuff to wrap up that fast, hope it's a satisfying conclusion.

Not sure how much I like the fact they keep pulling things out of thin air with zero foreshadowing. "Oh, there was a super-dangerous kind of Gundam that has been never mentioned before!" feels like the reveal of the Akatsuki in Seed Destiny, and I definitely do not consider that a good thing.

The whole thing also feels pretty rushed now. Shaddiq stages what is basically an open revolt and then the whole thing is ended by... him getting beat by Guel and put under locks, along with his harem. There really should have been more time spent on that, along with more focus dedicated to the events on Earth.
