We all know it the Epic Falcon Punch! Finally after 51 Episodes our promised Punch has been delivered, but now with the actual backstory the punch appears to be less effective than first though! Instead of the extremely powerful punch that blew up half of the galaxy it was actually the Dark Matter Reactor! Oh well Captain Falcon stays epic because he's such a bad ass! Stay strong with a Falcon Punch!

The universe is in disaster and Captain Falcon together with Ryu go to Black Shadow's secret base where the Dark Matter Reactor is and try to destroy it! There Black Shadow is awaiting them and try to get their reactor mites! There is also Haruka that looks like frozen in carbonate or something similar, Ryu first reaches the inside of the core where he fights with Black Shadow! Captain Falcon suddenly drops in when he decides to save Haruka!

They than both return to the core to finish the deal they use all their power to overload the core and finishing it all! This is when the Falcon Punch happens while in the overloading progress of the core it all ends in a total bang therefor the extreme power of the Falcon Punch!

In the ends Captain Falcon is no more but the role of is taken over by Ryu! Ryu finally proposes to Haruka and that also becomes a happy ending! Years pass and Ryu is now Captain Falcon, happily married to Haruka and training Crank as a racer! And what a bit unexpected even Zodan is still there!

In the end this anime was quite amazing especially the last part, the development and quality of these episodes really raised a lot and made the buildup to the final episode really great and amazing for the viewer! The plot was also amazing and the end was just sweet and great! In total one epic anime 8/10!

That was a nice finale, and DAT SUPER SMASH BROS. Reference.

I felt a little sad yet happy for the conclusion.

Perfect last episode. I have always wanted to watch it since I saw some very old video on youtube with Falcon punch scene. Glad I didn't know back then it was almost very end of last episode, lol.
Maybe it had both great and decent episodes but overall it was a good show to watch. Too bad we won't probably see more F-Zero anime :(

Definitely won't be getting another anime. It was quite bizarre Nintendo even attempted to mainstream F-Zero. Looks like they blew their budget and "retired" the franchise altogether! Nothing more than a legend now.

Hilarious. Like there ever was going to be a chance. Every episode would have to be memeable like 51 for this to stand a chance.

4/10. Love F-Zero, but this is the wrong direction to take the franchise.

Man.... 😭
That episode was so full of feels. I don’t care if it’s a kid’s show, I cried 3 TIMES IN THIS EPISODE OKAY. But the time I cried hardest was honestly when we finally got to see Clank all grown up and participating in a race. He really deserved to be there, I literally choked up when he appeared on screen though like it was IMMEDIATE SOBBING.
Also omg!!!! I loved Jack’s little face star thingy!!!!! But I’m just fangirling now. XD
Going back to the main point, yes, overall that episode was SO GOOD!!!! And I loved this series - aside from the fact that it did tend to hinder quite significantly in the quality of animation, this is personally almost the perfect TV show to me. 10/10!!!!!!!! ❤️

Honestly better than I expected. Slow to start but it gets going during later parts.

This right here, the icing on the cake for this show. All the build ups were worth it for the final sequence and boy did it pay off. Loved this episode and it ended in a satisfying manner i'd say

I watched the first half of the show some months ago. I was a little tired and gave it a rest. I thought it wasn't a good show.
However, the second half was absolutely different. Not even one bad episode since then, good story, good character development, and pretty good ending.

I'm glad this was a great show in the end.
