...on a side note... am I the only individual that thinks the BK has done the best thing they could do in dropping Zero down..? ° ° Zero could be a great tactician, but he will became useless once the war is over, since he's crap at actual management of a country and you can't put a masked man in charge of a government. As for the military aspect of it, even without FREJA the strenght of Britannian troops were far way greater, and they were going to loose in the long run. Coming to a quick solution of the conflict as the other side (Schneizel, who doesn't give a fuck about the miserable Japan) offers to negotiate seems to me quite reasonable, even using Zero as a scapegoat. It's quite assured that those involved in the mutinity were (beside Diethard, maybe) pretty much biased by their personal reasons and emotions: Ohgi knows that he must stop the war if he doesn't want to loose Villetta again, one way or another, and Todou, who seems quite affected by Asahina's death, realized too late how much Zero has cheated in the match that left him with only some rags of his honour and Chiba by his side. (Maybe this too much focus speaks loud for how biased I could be about the matter according to personal preference ^^;; ...but, isn't it the suggestion given in the post? to try to see all the different perspectives..?)
And I'm not even scandalized about the apparent lack of affection the majority of them has shown to Zero. He's been quite an asshole to all of them and, beside Karen, none knows him really and therefore is not supposed to call him a friend - no matter how loud Tamaki can cry, he's never really known him.... In a war, allies are disposable if they start to act as bad allies, and Zero did.
So, to cut it short (??) after turn 19 I was pretty much persuaded that selling Zero to have Japan back was quite a nice affair. But it can be all wrong since a month has gone by and nothing seems to have changed in Area 11 and I see no parliament of the new free Japan with Kaguya sitting as the chairwoman ° ° Well, this could be easily explain with a month of collective hardcore sex crusade on the Ikaruga, that is quite well deserved after so many battles, but, c'mon guys... wait some little more...!!
I have difficulties in understanding Cornelia's stance at this point now...
