I'd root for Gaelio if he hadn't thrown his lot in with a war-criminal & just a general bastard.

Oh poor Chocolate-Man. sad

[up][up] He was doing pretty well till Gaelio came.

I gotta give props to Robbie Daymond for that performance.

And yeah, in pretty much any other series Gaelio would be the clear hero

Wow, it's almost as if having some super special awesome prototype mobile suit...doesn't do jack shit in the grand scheme of things.

@slimcoder: Yeah, and they backed the wrong horse. When you play the game of thrones, you either win or you die.

Also it should be noted that Mc Gillis was trying to change galler-whatever despite his cruel acts.

While Rustal is fighting to keep that system in place so he can maintain his own power with his cruel acts.

So Mc Gillis is the lesser of two evils here.

[up]x5: Honestly this just makes me want to dig up a fanfic where Gaelio joined up with Tekkaden.

[up]x3: Part of issue is that McGillis ultimate plan wasn't better in the long run,

@slimcoder: But change it into what? A system where power and power alone determines what's right? That seems to be what McGillis was aiming for. I'll take the rational tyrant over the delusional one.

Hey its prolly better than the current shit.

Besides Rustal's barely done stuff. There's remotely nothing likable about him.

At least we spent a lot of time with Mc Gillis.

Calling it now: Almiria ends up falling for Mikazuki and breaks off her engagement with McGillis, only to be welcomed into Mikazuki's harem by Atra.
