But yeah, Mika (and Barbatos) paid a heavy price for that victory. Mika seemingly low-key craving Barbatos I'm sure will escalate. And with this all, McGillis seems inspired to pull out a game changer of his own. I wonder if Barbatos is going to be overhauled again, or just repaired. (TBF, there's nothing wrong with the Lupus design, and I'm sure the engineers at Saisei will just return it to normal)

Interesting that we still don't know if McGillis actually beleived Gaelio dead, but Gaelio clearly is planning a long game. I guess this makes it more clear that the Vidar facade isn't really about keeping his identity from McGillis, but it allows him to operate outside the Seven Stars rules as it was. He can't be held accountable if he's 'dead.'

I have a feeling that Barbatos might get some of the Hashmal parts attached to it when it gets repaired, given the shilloette for the next unknown Gundam in the IBO gunpla line.

I was wondering about that scene between Isurugi and McGills talking about what happened to Galeio, I was almost expecting them to say something about knowing different but it didn't go anywhere. I never thought about Vidar as a way to operate outside of the Seven Stars though.

I have a feeling for some reason that once IBO is over, I could see a sequel movie like Awakening of the Trailblazer being greenlit. I dunno, I feel like the mobile armor stuff is too good to not delve into more, albeit with a plot just focused on beating them and not involving political scheming. Plus a bigger budget. We can see what happens after IBO, we can get some cool action scenes without worrying too much about the plot, and we could get more flashbacks to the Calamity War.
