I want to show how my impressions of those events have gained new meaning in context with the finale itself.īefore we get into that though, there’s a bit of plot that happens in between where I left off the last article, and where I want to begin the main points of this one. Instead of running down each of the episodes’ events from the finale, I’m going to primarily focus on the last episode itself, and show how its resolution echoes previous touchstones of thematic and character development. Nexus does a bit of both but, interestingly, I found that its finale connects together conclusions I reached in my previous articles in a very distinct way.īecause of that, this post will have a bit of a different structure. This can be done by gradually spiraling out in scope to apply those themes in increasingly broad scenarios (like I noted with Mebius), or by resolving character development arcs in a definitive and permanent way (as we saw with Makai no Hana). One thing I do want to apply from my previous work on show finales, is the idea that successful ones draw in all the major themes that the show has incorporated and developed over the course of its airing. That was a lot of pressure to put on myself, to work at specifically improving a style I’ve grown comfortable with over the last six months of writing for this site.īut I wanted to do so because Nexus deserves it. Too often, it seemed like my purpose going into them was “let’s get this wrapped up” and I lost track of what made me so excited while watching those finales in the first place. Looking back over my previous work, I felt there was just too much recap involved and not enough direction that developed a coherent main theme. But a more important reason for the delay is the fact that I wasn’t too happy with my usual structure for articles dealing with show finales.

Part of that is because, like how my Makai no Hana series was delayed, I was distracted by other shows that grabbed my attention in the meantime.
This article has been a long time coming. My points from the previous articles will wind up being EXTREMELY IMPORTANT to the points I develop here, so if you haven’t read them already, catch up with my other posts first: Author’s Note: This is the final entry into my four-part series commenting on Ultraman Nexus after watching through it for the first time.
