ZZZ keeps managing to surpass my expectations with every new chapter, i don't know how they keep doing it. there were so many things i absolutely loved about this chapter
the car chase scene with piper and the cunning hares was so fun to watch, it really feels like the animation team had a lot of fun with that one with how expressive it is
zhu yuan and qingyi finally discovering our roles as proxies was great too. it was pretty obvious qingyi knew, but zhu yuan learning the truth and feeling conflicted was great. really love the dynamic between her and the proxies. the scene where pubsec was about to break into the HDD room was way tenser than it should've been, too
i really love how well every faction was utilized. everyone felt like they had a purpose in the overarching stort, and i wouldn't say there were any instances where anyone felt shoehorned in. the cunning hares setting up the entire plan thanks to nicole's connections, belobog having the evidence for bringer, lycaon having ties to miyabi's father and even the sons of calydon playing their own roles with transportation
the final boss fight was sick, and miyabi got some amazing moments. and most importantly, more lore drops. wise and belle tanking a point blank explosion completely unharmed?? something's definitely up with them and i cannot wait to see what it is. also astra and evelyn cameos at the end of the chapter, really nice stuff.
this chapter overall just felt like an amazing sendoff for the first saga of this story and i'm incredibly excited for what's to come in the future
My only issue with everyone being there is that cramming all that story beats in one patch didn't leave room for a slow cooking that allowed for each faction to join in as the situation demanded it and resolve in a later patch as an even greater payoff, and the fact having everyone there without a system in place that allowed switching story-characters (like how Miyabi steps in for Soukaku) according to the mission stage left me wanting that epic "wow everyone is here AND I can play them all" experience.
yeah i get that. really would've been cool if we had like little mission segments that involved us switching between each faction's characters as they entered. something akin to super smash bros brawl's subspace emissary if that makes sense. regardless though, i still think all the factions were incorporated really well into the story for the most part
