The most thankless part of this grand system is that the line is stretched too long, so that after seeing who is who, it is forgotten that the relationship between people and people and races is forgotten. The so-called guardianship, friendship, great love, and righteousness are all drawn deliberately, obscuring the original intention and lacking a sense of existence.
Looking back and thinking about it, is there any friendship in this series? Seems to be more of an alliance based on curiosity and interest; is there love? Although there is life and death, it is not profound, after all, the foundation is not solid; is there family affection? Only see numbness and indifference. So what is the creative team trying to promote? Maybe this series isn't enough to be called an "epic", it's just a nicely done, big-looking war movie.
