Experience has taught me that a story can get completely out of hand. The problem is that he introduced a bunch of hella powerful opponents early on and now he has to get rid of them. The rebellion ensured they couldn't gang up on the Guyver and split up the problem, and Apollon got rid of one, as well.
...What annoys me is that the parties are acting as if they're in a game, where you have to take turns. And not in a war, where you strike as soon as it is strategically beneficial. The Zoalords are staggeringly ineffective, almost inert, in dealing with the Guyver. Frankly, Archanfel and Barcas seem to have made some pretty poor choices, since none of the guys seem to have anything of the general in them.
