The animators made the fatal mistake of showing a two-second clip in the opening narration of this film that had Attila, Hun, and Professor Sebastian studying a captured Rayquaza. I then spent the next 90 minutes thinking about how balls-out awesome a movie about that would be, and have no real recollection of what this film was actually about or what happened in it.
A couple of people have questioned whether this or that movie villain survived the end of their film, and the answer is always “yes.” The rule of thumb seems to be to kill them off for real in the manga adaptation, and to leave it ambiguous in the film itself but then show them alive in the credits (if not of their own film, then of the next one). I scraped together this illustrative screencap collection for reference/reassurance. Left to right, top to bottom:
- Annie and Oakley in prison, reading a book about Lawrence III
- Butler and Diane in Forina (background)
- Captain Phantom and Galen sharing a prison cell
- Newton Graceland visiting Zero in prison, showing him a surviving copy of Infi
- Marcus working the land behind Damos
- Kodai and Goone being carted off to prison
