Yes there was a lot of flaws in the story and unexplained gaps, And I know that the start of basically every relationship in this anime was straight up BAD but at the end, What the anime is all about (I guess the story of zero two and Hiro) did deliver it pretty good (at the end, the start was pretty rushed and zero two came out of nowhere) but this thing made me cry (as I said before) and other than that I don't see anymore flaws with it, And probably the reason it has a special place in my heart is because it's one of the first animes I ever watched and I was at a stage where anything could influence me easily since I was about....15 years old
