Great essay on W I agree with you on most points specially your analisis on Ryu, the guy had an overly cliched motivator, yet he made it work perfectly, he didn't give in to revenge or became overly righteous about it. He beat Isaka but he died out of his own sins, Ryu never felt bad about it and it actually made him a better person.

Very interesting analisis on Philip too, adds a lot of depth to his character.

I'll be honest, I never understood the hate 49 gets from some people, sure it must have felt cheap to some people for Philip to return but using Extreme for that was logical and honestly there was no way they would keep Philip dead, they had to use W in the team-up movies.

Overall I really liked 49, maybe people reaction to it would have been different if they had made it an actual epilogue in a later movie, instead of the last episode of the show.
