I think the way it ended and Epsilon's speech was very poetic but I felt there were a few issues that the ending had.

1) Tucker getting the Meta suit.  Will he keep it?  If so, he will be OP if they ever want to continue the series after that point.  If not, its loss is something better seen, not mentioned.

2) The scenario.  All the Reds and Blues are trapped in a room with a single chokepoint as their only entrance/exit.  It's identical to their situation back in Armonia and the pirates couldn't beat them even with cloaking.  And now they have twice as many guns and alien weapons plus the Meta suit.

3) Lack of focus on Epsilon.  If they want the viewers to "die" with Epsilon, we needed to have been focused on Epsilon.  But we were following all the R's and B's.  So by ending it right when Epsilon dies, it feels like we just got left hanging.

I think what they should've done: for one, at least focus on Epsilon in the final episode. It's too late to change the rest of the season but at least this one episode. Hargrove said he was looking for a good AI to run the suit. Say that he found one and put the suit over a mechanical body controlled by the AI and sent it after the Reds and Blues. They barricade the door against this enhanced Meta and prepare to fight it. (This would be a much bigger threat than their current one). Then, Epsilon can decide to fragment himself and attack the enemy AI to save his friends.

And personally, I kept expecting Locus to suddenly appear and assassinate Hargrove.
