I'm pretty sure I'm the slaine ~*~stan~*~ you're talking about.

I'll never understand people's tendency to view "not agreeing with one side = 110% ON THE OTHER GUY'S SIDE"

I just believe(d) that he was the he was the less worse option, before it was revealed they live in a universe where it turns out you can just ask for peace and get it.

to prove it to you: asseylum didn't do anything surprising in the finale, for me. bad shit, yeah, not surprising. she was doing her best, her best is just terrible. (deciding slaine as a scapegoat for everything was somehow buyable, which in turn means not punishing other culprits, and making the problem of versian/terran racism worse than ever before; screwing vers over economically; etc)

slaine decided to entrust the fate of vers to this person. someone he absolutely should have recognised as a bad fit for the job. he selfishly screwed over the majority of vers, practically on a whim, simply because somebody he idolized asked him to with half a backbone instead of their usual none.

I'm not mad. I'm not salty. I'm just silly levels of deeply disappointed for a silly anime.
