Synopsis

The two part finale of Buddy Complex television series deals with the final battle between the Free Treaty Alliance and the space division of Zogiria, lead by an elderly Bizon, as Earth and time itself hang in the balance.

Audience Consensus

The finale attempts to resolve the initial series' plotlines but suffers from rushed pacing and underdeveloped elements. While some appreciate the thematic depth and mecha action, others find the plot convoluted and emotionally lacking. The ending is generally considered a mixed bag, leaving viewers with unresolved feelings about the execution.

Strengths

  • Ties up some unanswered questions from the first series.
  • The series introduces intriguing technologies.
  • Good if you like quantum physics and the space-time continuum.

Weaknesses

  • The story is rushed.
  • Pacing issues, new elements introduced too quickly.
  • New technologies introduced feel like deus ex machina.
  • Too many character deaths without enough emotional weight given to it.
  • Generic elements overshadow unique ideas.
