I was also vastly surprised at the inability of ZAFT's forces to dodge the Neo-Genesis shot but that the AA and Eternal could dodge....
And yes it is utter crap that Shinn and all of the ZAFT people lost and not a single Lacus Faction member was even scratched... Shinn deserved to at least kill some DOM Troopers or Mwu or Athrun or SOMEONE!!! Rey did pretty well for going up against -I-AM-GOD-KIRA-YAMATO-
That part with the AA shooting downwards onto the Minerva was pretty phat. But I have fits with the number of times that the Minerva gets into the position where they are RIGHT BEHIND THE ARCHANGEL!!! They do it about a dozen times in all of Destiny and never get more than insignificant damage done on the AA. Do the ZAFT firing computers have a glitch? Or does a classic flanking position mean nothing in Gundam anymore?
