the finale swings for everything — marriage proposals, political maneuvering, emotional payoffs, action, and comedy all happening at once. Seina discovering he is to marry Amane, Kiriko, Ryoko Balta and Neju all at once for galaxy-political reasons is the most GXP ending imaginable — absurd on the surface but actually the result of 26 episodes of very specific setup. the actual wedding ceremony is handled with surprising warmth and the final image of Seina surrounded by the people who chose to be in his orbit is exactly the right note to end on. not a perfect finale but an honest and affectionate one.
