Not much to report, it is all written elsewhere already. I'm even going to postpone the normal Liked/Rewatch mark until some test of time. Ditto for the decision if it's on the level of Stellvia.

One curious thing about Shingu is the wheels-inside-wheels jokes, such as the Magistrate.

I think Wennul was right that a human (or even a regular alien) is not trustworthy with this kind of power. An unexpectedly profound thought for a product of empire, I might add. If we presume that Tatsuo Sato spoke with his mouth, this was not a small amount of foreshadowing, too.
