I could have done without the two-book vampire story, the evil space clown book, the werewolf love story book, and the space karate manly man book. Was glad to see her return in MC (no spoilers, only at book 2!). Sechs vs Qu Tsang makes the whole ZOTT format worth it for me, especially how it's half a book worth of intense fighting, followed up by like four pages of Alita showing up and just power-housing it through her. Re-reading it has helped me enjoy and embrace the good stuff more. There's lots of worthwhile stuff in Last Order, but a lot of filler, too. Seeing that some of the story points it introduced years ago will be continued in Mars Chronicles makes me appreciate it even more. Nevertheless, I still love Last Order a lot. I get why it's there, it's a coverup so Gally can sneak in and do what she has to do, and the chaotic end of ZOTT separates Gally and sets up the chess pieces for Mars Chronicles, but a little bit less tournament fighting and "space buddhism karma philosophy mumbo jumbo" would have been nice. I do agree with the over abundance of ZOTT in Last Order. I'm really glad to see that Mars Chronicles got that early setup in Last Order, it shows the author knew what he was doing and had a plan, a vision. There's quite a bit of things in Last Order which were setup but seemingly didn't go anywhere, and that's where Mars Chronicles picks up those threads and continues them. #GUNNM LAST ORDER FORUM SERIES#I do agree that the ending of the original series was rushed, but knowing why, I don't mind.Īs for the ending of Last Order, well, that's not an ending. The last part of the original ending was declared non canon, and the story was continued directly in Last Order. He ended up surviving, though, and after a while he decided to revisit the ending. He chose to rush the ending, which is understandable. The original ending was rushed because the author was seriously ill and was apparently facing the dillema of rushing a premature ending or risk that the series would never be finished. Also I felt disappointed with both endings
