We’re closing out the last of the major GAT-X suits this week as we return to normal coverage, and the loving(?) arms of the Cosmic Era. What’s so strange about the Aegis is how much of it is abandoned going forward in SEED. True, the Freedom has very little Strike in it, but there’s the Strike Rouge and Noir, and the Impulse is a clear successor, etc. The Aegis just… happens. And then SEED tries to forget about it. But we won’t. We can’t.
