I hate to reply late to a three year old post and beat a dead horse, but I saw this exact same movie last night and...holy cow, you literally summed up the exact same thoughts I felt watching it (except I felt the film just abruptly stopped instead of ending)! Everyone said it was great from what I read online (though I had heard of Quess being a total pain in the butt), but despite it having good scenes, it just didn't do it for me.

I totally agree about Quess and Hathaway, and it should have been done like Beltorchika's Children where in that version Hathaway was the one who accidentally killed her, as seeing what he did here afterward, all I'm going to say is if he ended up getting killed off in action later in the film, I'd give it more credit.

The best part was probably the final battle between Amuro and Char, which had high stakes and was intense, and I also really enjoyed the animation, being great for an 80's anime film/Sunrise anime film, although how did they do that rotating satellite, was it early CG or live action?

One of my favorite characters there was Nanai and I'm glad she survived, she was much more interesting than both Quess and Hathaway (though Amuro and Char were still good and the best characters in the film along with Bright), and unlike Quess who wanted to screw around with multiple people, she actually cared about Char and was concerned for his safety. In my opinion, why wasn't SHE more focused on? Why not have HER have the role Quess had, or say, have her be a new recruit to Zeon or a Zeon spy who befriends the Earth Federation before betraying them with a twist, along with her developing feelings for Char? She's an interesting character and should have been utilized more, maybe have it so she uses a one of the Zeon mecha, kills Quess out of jealousy because she realizes that girl is trying to hit on Char/has gotten on her nerves for the umpteenth time, and have Hathaway fight against her out of anger, with Nanai explaining how Quess had betrayed them for Zeon, and have their fight be interrupted as they notice the Axis II asteroid trying to be stopped whilst she mourns for Char, or heck, had it been done in a way where Amuro and Chan both fought Char and Nanai it would have been interesting, where we could see how the dynamics of both love interest groups would have worked, like while the love between Amuro and Chan would be natural, Char could have been using Nanai without her realizing that or something, imagine that. But alas, it was not to be.
