    That shrug when Gelorum was asked what Wylde learned in prison told me more about what kind of character she was then any words could describe.

    ngl i still find it funny how gelorums big plan was to get the wheel of power then just hope the accelerons decided to let them kill them all.
    instead she just rolled up and went to attack and the acceleron was just like "no." before yeeting her into the void
    great plan.

      I also wonder where she goes after she’s thrown into what seems to be infinity. I want an official answer and see where she went after being tossed off the end of the track. Does she hit a ground? Does she float infinitely? Is it like a landless planet that only has a core and just melts into liquid metal? If she hit a ground, what does it look like? Is there even a sun? Its white and cloudy all around so it has to have a sun, if its cloudy it must have weather. I dont think we will ever know and that its all left to imagination. I dont like that answer because its mine and it would be different to the creator’s idea on what happened after she was tossed and if there’s even weather or a sun or even ground.

    I feel like the Acceleracers left the Drones on earth not because they were abandoned but because the Acceleraces knew they would make a good rival to test the Humans when they became ready to race.
    But because the Drones did not see it that way, they grew to hate the Acceleracers and created their own downfall.
    (EDIT)
    It was also likely that the Accelearcers wanted the Humans to have an enemy to race against to prevent them from killing each other too.

    A huge part of me wanted Gelorum to be Tesla’s wife, who was corrupted and turned into a cyborg by the drones. It may show why Tesla is willing to allow other drivers to die in order to stop her? Also Did he work with the government/ keep secrets from them? Was he a part if the Silencerz just as Vert’s father was last revealed? So many unanswered questions to one of the most epic shows of my childhood

    WTF is the deal with the accelerons?
    Everytime I try to understand those weirdo aliens all I get is mixed messages...
    The Challenges were to win through sheer skill, but at the end when Gelorem goes crazy the dude just uses his Godlike powers to solve the problem (which kinda feels like the exact opposite of what it was preaching moments prior).
    They're seemly benevolent(?) but what the accelerons did to their drone creations was pretty much a dick move...
    Also _why_ do they feel the need to make humans risk life and limb just to become good enough racers to join them?

    • @chinnymisc

    • @anthonyspitery6332
      @anthonyspitery6332 2 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Through a creative standpoint of the show, the SIMPLE answer is these questions aren’t meant to be answered. “The more I study, the less I understand.”-Dr. Tesla
      The LORE answer as far as I can tell is this:
      To them, racing is more than just a friendly sport. Think of it like the hunger games, or Predator, as there are many predator analogies with the drones (such as the robot eye view from their heads on occasion when they are scanning, the ? accelecharger making them invisible, etc) The drones and Accelerons have a hunter’s discipline, and for them dominating and winning is victory. The drones value doing anything it takes to win-which is where the difference starts. Accelerons still value driving more than purposely exercising brutality and eliminating drivers to win. To them, the competition and danger factor is part of the sport, and that is meant to have a balance. The Accelerons are probably living like this because they themselves are too powerful, and its a meditative lesson for themselves to to be able to store such power (Such as the accelechargers) and exercise their creative ingenuity…But not actually use it. Thats why they created this entire structure with the wheel and realms. To share it, and conquer it, but not by destroying its reason for it happening. “Wisdom is like a circle, what you receive, you must give back.” The best thing I can surmise is that it is a lesson about greed and selfishness, as almost every character in the show learns this lesson as well in seeing past their selfishness.
