SRWZ3 Tengoku spoilers

Z3-2 story stuff in no particular order

INDIVIDUAL SERIES

Ending has the multiverse restored to its ORIGINAL state before Kei fucked things up.

Zambot 3: Gaizock returns. Turns out that because the angels were destroying galaxies due to people reaching shinka, it bugged and decided that this is the same thing as people destroying galaxies themselves, and defined them as evil and went around killing them.

Daitarn 3: The Meganoids were killed by Banjou off-screen. All of them.

Tetsujin 28: Uchuu Maou returns and is just around to be one of the higher dimension beings (people that reached shinka) opposing the angels.

Godmars: Same as Tetsujin with Zuul instead.

Mazinger: Same as Godmars with Hades and the gods of Olympus instead.

Votoms: Wiseman still wants Chirico to be his successor and brings Fiana back to life to try and manipulate him. Chirico thanks Wiseman and blows him up. Both Chirico and Teitania retire in the ending and just do AT battling all day. Chirico is going to use the prize money from his next win to fund Vanilla and Cocona's honeymoon.

Orguss: Kei, Orson (and Ziene from Z1) are still the original singularities so they're needed to fix shit.

Zeta Gundam: Hamaan becomes the leader of the new Neo Zeon in the ending with Char helping her out, and he promises to never leave her side. (On an unrelated note: He is totally to be trusted and has never betrayed anybody in his entire life.) Kamille and Fa and Four go back to school, and Kamille plans to become an MS engineer.

CCA: See above for Char. Amuro retires and becomes a test pilot, saying he might test out an MS Kamille designed some day.

Gundam X: The Frost brothers are still alive, remember? They show up in the crowd when everyone is cheering Z-Blue on during the fight with Advent and that's fucking it.

Wing: All the Gundam pilots join the Preventers. Wufei puts on a Preventer uniform and when told it suits him says that this is now his justice.

Turn A: Gwen joined Chrono and is a liaison between them and Australis. In the ending he goes back to being the lord of Inglesa. Loran leaves with Diana like in the show, but it's stated that Diana is living on borrowed time, and he promises to come back to Sochie's side, where he belongs. (tl;dr BOTH OF YOU ARE MY WINGS)

Seed: Didn't go on the Gundam routes but ZAFT joined Neo Zeon in serving Sidereal or something there and Rey became head of ZAFT or whatever. Everything's resolved on the Gundam routes and Rey joins (as a summon for Shin).

00: Setsuna and Tieria leave to visit the ELS home planet in the ending but Setsuna meets Marina before leaving (and they have their lines from the movie post-credits ending there) and promises to come back no matter how many years or decades it takes. Ribbons is still hanging out inside Veda and helps Tieria grow a new body and build a new Gundam after the ELS blow up Raphael (Tieria thinks he's just another Innovade of the same type, but it turns out that Ribbons reformed because of Amuro)

UC: Turns out that Laplace WAS the fucking constitution after all, but there's more to it- The Marcenas clan serves Chrono and the first EF president was assassinated because he planned on revealing the truth behind Chrono. After Mineva reveals the contents of the box she gets hijacked by a recording of Elgan Rodick from the Celestial Being ship which reveals the stuff about Chrono.

Top: Kazumi comes back and is young again because IT'S A MIRACLE. In the ending both of them go back to their own time (Kazumi still young) and are reunited with Jung. They also hear about the message, which was made by Jung (who became president) from Nono.

Top 2: Tycho's plot is completely cut. Nicola's attempted rape of Nono is turned into a big event where he decides to angst and be a dick to everyone but everyone decides to give him a good talk about what it means to grow up and whatever and he gets over it. They also completely forget about the attempted rape part. The green Earth is turned into Douzemille and used by Dix Neuf in an event battle sequence and stopped by Nono like in the show, but one of the reasons is because she was trying to protect the message for Noriko and Kazumi, and she activates it there.

Macross 7: Basara goes running after space whales again in the ending. Also Max and Gepelnitch show up.

Eva: Near Third Impact results in everything related to Eva being sent back to their own world (You go back to the giant crater where NERV used to be for the showdown with FMP's Amalgam). The four Evas later get dumped back in this world halfway through their big Central Dogma fight in 3.0 (Shinji screwed up and only pulled out one lance), and their ending is them going back to their world and parting ways. Kaworu's still alive though.

FMP: Played straight, but none of the novel-only people fight. Caspar does show up in a Venom-type Chodar (= presumably an Eligor) but only in map events. None of the novel-only people are voiced, so you don't fight Lee or Sabina who just vanish at some point never to be seen again. Fucking stupid.

Macross F: Grace comes back and restarts her plotting with Mishima who has her shot (she survives and does that remaining shit in the movie with the stage before dying for good) and he in turn is killed by the Galaxy heads who take over the Battle Frontier. Alto can choose between Sheryl and Ranka. Regardless of which Mikage from Aquarion shows up to kidnap Ranka (if you choose Ranka he says GREEN HAIR MUST NEVER BE HAPPY) and uses her to make his own Ancient Aquarion. Also the TV and movie Vajura are of different... flocks? Swarm? Whatever. Anyway that shit about them using Aimo to look for other flocks to mate with actually comes to pass.

Aquarion: See Macross F for Mikage. In the ending Apollo and Sirius end up back in their own world in their own time so good for them. Also yes these are the same Aquarion characters from Z1 except they were supposedly gone all this time so I guess they're pretending they weren't in Z SPD and Z2 or something.

Gargantia: Mostly played straight, but it turns out that Ledo's world is one where Char succeeded in his Axis drop, fucking things up. Striker runs off at the end of the Gargantia finale and joins the Macross Galaxy people, and is mass produced by them.

Geass is mostly irrelevant. Lelouch tries to geass Doctrine and Tempti but fails because of course he does. CC has some shit with Asakim about immortality. Karen is a Votoms character.

TTGL a shit

Originals: Setsuko, Toby and Denzel end up in the same world (her original Toby and Denzel are dead, remember?) and they complete the Virgora's test runs so that it's ready for mass production. Rand and Mail are suddenly reunited with Cielo and when they ask him where he was it turns out he was on the Solarian all this time. Crow is in debt again. Hibiki and Suzune take the Solarian and go explore the gates.

ORIGINAL + MISC. STUFF

Eluna got her ship as a present from her father, the previous leader of Hyades. It had a dormant sphere as its power source (so basically the same as with Virgo's) which was awakened when Sidereal beat the shit out of Hyades and killed her father. Hyades ended up joining Sidereal but she still wants revenge on the Angels.

Shikuu's sphere is passed down through his clan along with the Shiseiten (which is a living being, not some sort of robot, and the crab-things his cronies use, the Shimeisou, are the Shiseiten's offspring with armour on). Blah blah Sidereal killed everyone except people they could use as cannon fodder so he's mad.

So in both cases, basically the same thing as Gatorade and Geminy.

The naming of the other sphere robots is obvious but in Shiseiten's case
-Kishuku (also the name of Shikuu's clan) is one of the Chinese 28 mansions and blah blah blah go read wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twenty-Eight_Mansions (that's #23 鬼 there) and is located in Cancer's constellation
-In Chinese mythology or whatever it's said to be the place where the souls of the dead go to
-Shiseiten (尸逝天) = "heaven where the dead go to"

Barbiel is from a parallel Earth and the sole survivor. Everyone but him dying awakened the sphere in his robot, the Gun Ares (the An Ares' original name). He renamed it later because Gun (like in Gunbuster and Gundam) was a thing used everywhere in his world and it makes him saaad.

Shikuu killed Annalotta but not her children, Anna and Lotta (great names, hobo) because that wasn't part of his mission, so the Geminide race will live on after all.

The three time/space travel routes (Shinji, Char, Crow) are:
Shinji- Z-Blue ends up in the Evangelion world (wrecked from the Near Third Impact) and see that it's fucked up but the Eva people refuse to talk about it. Nichola does realise that Shinji's bearing a heavier weight than he thought though and apologises for his previous attitude. tl;dr nothing happens
Char- Z-Blue ends up in the Black History version of the Axis drop where Zeuth is fighting Char (your people helpfully point out that some old members of Zeuth who aren't in Z-Blue are there too). It turns out that the black Angeloi (Angeloi Arca) accelerated Axis which resulted in the drop succeeding.
Crow- Z-Blue ends up in Insalaum before Gaiou attacks, and run into black Angeloi which try to summon Gaiou. He shows up, but after seeing Z-Blue's fighting figures he'll leave Insalaum alone since it has potential beyond that of his dimension beasts (which don't grow stronger, unlike humans), and thus this parallel Insalaum is saved.

Sidereal is basically the Angel's cronies composed of survivors of people they've slaughtered.

Vildark is one of the dimensional generals and plots to defeat the Angels. Eluna and Shikuu, having had their people destroyed by Sidereal, are in on his plan, and willingly die to give him their spheres (Barbiel was a dick and not in on the plan so they just kill him). After Z-Blue reaches shinka he angsts over how he killed so many people to make his dimensional monsters and decides he has to keep fighting or everything he's done so far will be for nothing.

When Gaiou got his memories back at the end of Z2-1 he sent Shiony back to Earth with a message for any other dimensional generals who would show up, and she delivers it to Vildark. She's now a teacher in Limonesia.

Shinka (真化, NOT 進化 or 神化) is the process of becoming a higher dimensional being (stuff like Mikage, Hades, Zuul, the Angels) through enlightenment and realising the truth of the universe, namely that everything has a will (not just living things but rocks and whatever) and by understanding and becoming one with them. There are artificial ways of reaching shinka too, and emperor Wakamoto's plot was one of them (it's never said but it's pretty obvious that instrumentality would've resulted in shinka too)

The Angels were also inhabitants of Earth, and were the first in all universes to reach Shinka, by combining all life on the planet (basically instrumentality). This combined life then split into four beings, based on the Japanese idea that there are four emotions (喜怒哀楽/kidoairaku = happiness, anger, sadness, joy; Joy in the context of SRWZ3 being different from happiness in that it's defined as deriving enjoyment = having fun from something, while happiness is just being happy while not enjoying it. The difference between ki and raku confuses a lot of people IRL too and there are arguments on the nuances of raku and there are entire books written on it so fuck it.), with each being having their one emotion. Hence we have Advent of Happiness, Doctrine of Rage, Sacrifi of Sadness, and Tempti of Joy. All life means literally ALL life on their planet, and their Earth is now completely dead without even bacteria. Their reaching shinka also connected their world, the Chaos Cosmos, to ALL other parallel worlds. They decided they should control the entire multiverse and watch over lesser races, and by watch over I mean stopping them from reaching shinka by killing them. They made their god Sol to control origin law/dimensional power to help them but he killed himself because they were assholes, and split into the twelve spheres. Chrono is an organisation they created on all other Earths to hold back those other Earth's humans from reaching shinka, hence why it exists in multiple worlds.

They can get over the 12000 year cycle of destruction easily, but they need to remake Sol this time because it's not the usual 12000 year thing but a one in 120000000 year bigger version. Some shit I've forgotten about happened 12000 years ago which resulted in Advent exiled and Sacrifi sealed away. Sacrifi was the one who created the time prison to protect Earth because wahhh everything so sad.

Doctrine is a fucking genius and gave Advent the Helios when he was exiled, but they need it to recreate Sol and so welcomes him back, but Advent is still mad about the whole exile thing and uses the other angels and eight spheres to create not Sol but to turn himself into the new supreme god, Z. He wants to end everything and start anew with him in charge of everything.

The universe is made of two powers, that of existence and non-existence (the latter actively tries to destroy shit). The destruction of the universe is brought about by the latter overpowering the former, and Baal is anything that carries it out. Doctrine claims that Z-Blue is Baal, and then declares all other living beings to be Baal too, but by going around killing people he's weakening the power of existence and therefore he's a Baal. It later turns out that Advent wanting to destroy everything so that he can start the universe anew is the real Baal.

Z is supposed to have been reborn by using the black sun, Prodigium, Helios, and the 12 spheres, but Advent replaces the four missing spheres (your's) with four eternities instead, those of the other three angels and Asakim. Asakim's desire to die disables his own eternity (in the game he and Advent say that Z is granting his wish to die, the library entry says he "steals Advent's eternity") which weakens Z and lets Z-Blue defeat it.

Shurouga was a parallel version of Sol made to control Akashic Record. Not even the angels know what it really is, but since it's a parallel version of Sol it can detect the spheres which are shards of Sol, so they used it as a sphere detector. The Shurouga does not look like what it originally did; It absorbed memories and information from countless deaths and rebirths of the universe and changed over time. Asakim is a copy of the original pilot created by the Shurouga itself, but it's suggested that because the Shurouga had changed over time it might have screwed up some details when making him.

Kuro no Eichi (Black Knowledge) and Chrono H (pronounced "kurono eichi" in Japanese) are the same thing, smaller shards of Sol. It means Chrono Horizon and refers to how Sol looked to the horizon of time and despaired and killed itself or whatever.

Advent is dead, The Edel goes with Advent and is dead. They're now outside of the cycle of reincarnation.

The remaining sphere reactors are dead (all of their ghosts, including Uther and Im's show up to chat after they're freed from the spheres). The spheres are gone, but they're now free to rejoin the cycle of reincarnation so we might meet them again (they say as much).

The spheres and Supreme God Z are merged into Shurouga, giving it a permanent Possession state, and it now has completely control over cause and effect in all universes (the precise wording is ありとあらゆる多元世界 = "each and every multiverse", implying there are multiple multiverses), and Asakim remakes the Z multiverse to how it was before Kei fucked it up with the time-space bomb (They didn't actually elaborate on whether UCW/ADW or the worlds based on black history like Turn A's are split up, aside from the very last scene where the ships all come through the gate to Hibiki's world (also the FMP world), the individual series' characters are only shown interacting with other people from their own series). Anyway Asakim takes his new power and leaves for some new world.

The things at the end are gates, not zones. They're not referred to as crossgates, just gates.

Lines from defeating the Neo Reactors

Neo Mardachiel: "I am the Lying Ram's reactor. I am..."
Crow: "Not bad, but your lies are nothing compared to Im's."

Neo Ambriel: "I am the Discordant Twins' reactor. I am..."
Hibiki: "...Being the Discordant Twins' reactor isn't anything special. (That's why it's the core of the 12 spheres)".

Neo Verchiel: "I am the Wounded Lion's reactor. I am..."
Rand: "You sure aren't tough enough to call yourself a wounded lion!"

Neo Zuriel: "I am the Swaying Scales' reactor. I am..."
Crow: "If you can activate your sphere without any debt, you might be a better reactor than me."

Neo Asmodel: "I am the Ravenous Bull's reactor. I am..."
Rand: "Desire isn't something you get from someone else. It's something you just get from deep down. (Right, Elunaruna?)"

Neo Asmodel: "I am the Grudgeful Scorpion's reactor. I am..."
Setsuko: "Meaningless hate... Is just empty. (Barbiel... I think that my grief and your hatred were only the slightest bit different.)"

Neo Bachiel: "I am the Dreaming Fish's reactor. I am..."
Rand: "Go back to sleep, puppet. It may be a nightmare, though."

Neo Adnakiel: "I am the Standing Archer's reactor. I am..."
Crow: "What the hell is a puppet going to rebel against?" Sorry, but Vildark was ten times stronger."

Neo Gambiel: "I am the Bottomless Pitcher's reactor. I am..."
Crow: "Your false love can't save anything. (Uther Insalaum... I will never forget your love for the rest of my life..)"

Neo Hamariel: "I am the Grieving Maiden's reactor. I am..."
Setsuko: "Your grief was forced onto you... And that's the saddest thing of all."

Neo Muriel: "I am the Silent Crab's reactor. I am..."
Crow: "Nihilism isn't the same thing as emptiness. There's still a self in there. You ain't no Shikuu."

Neo Hanael: "I am the Curious Goat's reactor. I am..."
Setsuko: "(The sphere Asakim drew power from... He may have been a false image created by a system, but he was still truly alive.)"

LIBRARY ENTRIES

Angeloi Arca:  A mobile weapon directly under the Angels. While they look exactly the same as other Angelois except for the colouring, as they directly use origin law they are overwhelming tougher, and calculations say they are 30 times more powerful than regular Angeloi. Regular Angelois are cheap copies of tje Angeloi Arca, and only true believers accepted by the Angels are allowed to use them. In the history of the universe, they are seen coming to battlefields where Sidereal was suffering loses, and decimating those who would resist with overwhelming powers, and few know of their existence. Those few, however, feel the overwhelming existence of their owners, and live their rest of their lives in fear.

El Millenium: A mobile weapon directly under the Angels. Its entire body is made of DEC (dimension energy crystals) and its drive and weapons use origin energy. They are controlled mostly by Idom spirits, which turn their thirst for life and bodies into attacks towards the living. They are even more powerful than Angeloi Arca, and it was one of these that defeated the previous leader of Hyades, Elunaruna's father. 1-3 are sent to each planet under the watch of the Angels, to be awakened to destroy all civilization if life on that planet starts to reach shinka against their will, and are feared in legend throughout the galaxy as "Beasts of Judgement". The dimension monsters used by the dimension generals are said to have been developed based on this.

Zel Millenium: The strongest of the mobile weapons under the Angels. Its entire body is made of DEC (dimension energy crystals) and its drive and weapons use origin energy. Due to their incredible toughness and power, it is estimated that the average army of a civilization capable of interstellar travel in the Milky Way galaxy can be completely destroyed by only two of them. Only 666 exist in the entire universe, and only those chose are allowed to pilot them, and this is a great honour. Their being used in battles in regular space is even rarer than in the Angeloi Arca and El Millenium's cases, and in the past 12,000 years have only been used twice.

Zel Billenium: Zel Billeniums were given to the artificial life-forms, Neo Reactors, created by Advent. Only 12 exist, each equipped with a fake sphere corresponding to each of the zodiac, and the Neo Reactors are able to use their sphere acts. They appeared near Earth to protect the Supreme God Z.

Shurouga Sin: The Shurouga, evolved after Asakim took control of the flow of origin law in his four spheres. Its name means "sinner". Its black wings give it speed and mobility greater than that of the Shurouga, and its attacks cut through even causality, and exile its opponents from the cycle of rebirth. Through Asakim gaining and becoming the reactors of four spheres, the Shurouga, a system created to control causality, regained most of its original strength and showed a power beyond human understanding.

Prodigium: A mobile fortress boarded by Doctrine and Tempti. Tempty is an irresponsible bystander, and Doctrine controls it. It is capable of an overwhelming power beyond human understanding, known as "miracles". It is a god-vessel born from the remains of the Supreme God Sol which shattered 12000 years ago, and along with the Black Sun inherited some of Sol's remaining flame. Its glorious figure drives the weak mad, sends the powerless cowering in fear, and rains judgement against those who would turn their backs upon it. Alongside Helios and the Black Sun, it is one of the keys needed to recreate Sol, but the Prodigium on its own is capable of generating enough origin law to destroy an entire galaxy, depending on the conditions. After losing to Z-Blue in the Chaos Cosmos, it was used by Advent in the ceremony to recreate the supreme god.

Helios: The true form of Advent's Assclaps. With the name of a sun god, it showed power beyond human understanding. It is a god-vessel born from the core of the Supreme God Sol which shattered 12000 years ago, and was given to Advent when he was exiled as a final mercy. Its glorious figure make the weak cry, breaks the powerless with despair, and grants absolute defeat to those who would turn their backs upon it. It is one of the keys needed to recreate Sol, and Doctrine sought Advent's return so as to gain Helios to overcome the great destruction of the universe. In its battle against Z-Blue in the Chaos Cosmos, it fought with eight spheres but due to Advent's scheming did not use its full power and lost to the humans.

Supreme God Z: A supreme, absolute existence surpassing the causality of all universes. The original Supreme God was to have been reborn with the Helios, Prodigium, Black Sun and 12 spheres, but Advent replaced the four spheres with the four eternal lives of Doctrine, Tempti, Sacrifi and Asakim. It was named Z, meaning "he who watches over the end of the old world". By controlling eternity, the power of existence, and the death of others, the power of non-existence, it gained the power to destroy galaxies with origin law. It is impossible to measure it in terms of raw power, and cannot be harmed by weapons that have not achieved shinka. According to Advent, it was the only thing capable of overcoming the one in 120000000 year great destruction of the universe, and he sought to create his own ideal world from zero after everything was destroyed. After it was defeated by Z-Blue, the consciousnesses of all life gathered in its supersingularity, and a super-dimensional restoration was carried out.
