So how does it end in the manga? Noble Sacrifice of one or both of them? That seems like it would be the Japanese theme.
Edit: Just read the wiki on it. Yep, that's as Japanese as raw fish. I would have even been happy if they'd ended with an western version of the noble sacrifice but that version they list in the wiki is very dark indeed.
there is no going to human base/special weapon/power station. something something, kill the big antenna guy, but the backup antenna is each other, as in the backup antenna for cruise is blunt and blunts backup antenna is cruise, one of them must die. they duel, cruise wins, they are out of the time loop and proceed to the next day with blunt dead, at this point she is the super super hero, where most soldiers die or barely gets a kill, blunt has killed thousands, she kills so much she needs a warhammer 4k axe to kill b/c she runs out of ammo, and she has her own personal mech suit tech girl. cruise has basically copied her, and he inherits everything
