I'm high on the copium that we'll eventually get a part 3 because it feels like the perfect Empire Strikes Back style ending for the second act in a story, with the setup being a kinda meta Eva-esque premise that we're stuck in the same story and need to get out/resolve it for real this time.

But as The End? Heeeeell naw

Idk if I want CSM to continue at this point. There's so much baggage now that unless Fujimoto has something very specific he wants to do with it, a fresh start might be more compelling.

I think if 3 part does happen it will be after fugimoto takes a break and writers other stories.
