WARNING!!! SPOILER!!!
Questions I have about the plot:
- So who/what were the three "North Stars"? I'm guessing that two of them may be Antares and Spica, but that doesn't explain the third one.
- #11 seems to control Posidon Industries, but I guess she actually doesn't, since she didn't know about the President's affiliation with the space station until the end, and the Kusanagi is on the space station with him.
- Who were the two enemies (the ones who made the pigs and the ones who destroyed the pigs)? (Antares+Spica) made the pigs, so who was the second who destroyed them? Was it Stabat Mater?
- Why would the destroyer of the pigs want to destroy them (not the HLF, but the "enemy" who was controlling them)?
- Why did (Antares+Spica) attack #11 when #11 had almost conquered Stabat Mater?
- What happened with the Matrika/Hanava mission that the Doctor gave #11 in the beginning? Was that just dropped?
- What data was being carried by the bee which was discarded b/c it had a transmitter on it?
- Was the "thing" the circuit board that had been taken from the brain by the (hacked) police cyborg? What detective did #11 give the "thing" to?
- Was Antares a Motoko? If so, why does she tell #11 that in order to gain her kind of vision, technology would have to advance? Couldn't #11 conceivably gain the sight the same way Antares did?
- Why were (Antares+Spica) going to stop the "brain expansion" plan with the pigs if #11 and #20 fused?
- Why is #11, out of all the Motokos, the only "creator-like" entity that Tamaki is aware of?
- Do #11, #20, and Kusanagi represent the Sword, Jewel, and Mirror aspects, or is that orthogonal?
- why when #11 was fighting with #20 in the isolated space, the virus combined with search data in that room? did (antares+spica) design the virus to do that?
