Ending? is it necessary for the two main characters to die.
I first saw this when it made it's American debut on cartoon network's Adult Swin back in 2003, *spoilers* ,although I am very familiar with Yoshiyuki Tomino's work in killing popular characters in his series I found it to be very unecssary to end a 10 year old manga/anime with a story that kills off probably one of the best rivarys between two anime characters {Char and Armuro}. I also don't believe that the story's answer for the two heroes' death {"overloaded psycho frames"} is a good idea to end a masterpiece from the start. I just think it could of had a better ending.
