Sky Girls: Episode 24

Rating: 8/10
Impressions:
So much for conspiracies. Heck, we didn’t even get any suspense of build up in the last few episodes, and again, everything happens far too easily and smoothly. No twists, no ‘real’ drama, and no emphasis on the Sonic Diver piloting aspect until now (which is, mind you, extremely important). Prior to this episode, piloting the Sonic Divers has never been made an important aspect of the show. Nothing goes wrong, no angst results from it, no extra emotions well up from piloting them etc. The lack of this strongly reminds me of Stratos 4, and the far better job it does in making flying important.
So now we get to the final phase of the show, and things are starting to heat up, but unfortunately, just in the usual way. Otoha has yet to properly kick butt—she’s supposed to be the heroin and the awesome ‘many folds above everyone else’ character in piloting abilities. Even her sword wielding doesn’t do anything; all she has to do is stab the WORM and initiate a group attack with it. Sigh…even the OAV makes her appear so much more important. Ah well, it’s still been a fun ride. There are only two more episodes left, so hopefully, things will leave off with a bang at least.
