The breakneck pace of this season starts to remind me of F91 - everything feels like it could have used some extra time.

Guel on Earth next to a could-be-mentor character? Ain't no time for that, he's just teleported back to space.
Dawn of Fold on the run, the suffering of earthians? Sorry, can't show that too much, need to rush back to the plot!
School blown up? No time to explore the lasting effects, need to be back to action!

It's such a shame because there's so much to this setting, I feel this could have been a truly historic Gundam almost on the level of MSG or Seed. If only they had 50 eps...

They might get more episodes to explore the situation on Earth after they are done dealing with Charmom. At least that's what I hope for. Give us 25 more episodes!

@nevemsenki @WhiskyTangoFoxtrot Yeah, I think a simplified plot and smaller cast would have been better
