I wish they had done something better with Toby, but I'm not sure about giving her morphing powers. She doesn't really need them to fight. They could teach her martial arts somehow.

Not to fight just like Aximili doesn't need them to fight but there are other uses to morphing besides fighting.

True. It may have been practical to do so.

The series should have explored who those guys at the end #41 one were.

Also, the army of cloned Hork-Bajir that the Arn were making, or better yet, explain what happened to the Hork-bajir and Taxxon homeworld.

I'd have liked to see Gafinilan and Mertil show up again. Or at least Mertil, since Gafinilan probably croaked.... But his funeral would have been interesting.

And I'd have LOVED to see Marco's funeral after he faked his death, and Jake needing to pretend to be sad about it.

Why did Marco fake his death?

Yeah, I would like to see Mertil again. Maybe see if he would be willing to get a prosthetic tail blade. Even if it's just for looks, it would keep people from gawking at his lack of a blade.

Because he saved his dad from the Yeerks, and had become a target. Book #45. Faking his death was the best way to keep away and make sure the Yeerks didn't then target people he knew, such as Jake.

Oh yeah, I forgot! I wonder why they didn't mention anything about the funeral. Nora would be there too, acting all sad. It might be a good place for some character development.

I wish Visser 3 wasn't such a bumbling idiot. He's the highest ranking member in the Yeerk army and he's dumber than a pile of bricks and gets everything wrong. That's not the way to get promoted. A combination of his arrogance, ruthlessness, and Visser 1's intelligence.
Until then we fight.

I wonder how I would implement a better Visser Three, but satill leave room for the Animorphs to always come out on top?

Well the magic of the animorphs is that being a guerrila unit, they have anonymity, no home base, and small numbers which gives them high adaptability and I think really gives them a good upper hand.
Until then we fight.

a continually threatening villain who always loses is really hard to write

Visser Three was a moron, but somehow I think he provided a good foil to the Animorphs. He had a few moments of brilliance to balance out his complete insanity too.

Maybe there could be a very smart, Visser 1-like henchman who could easily defeat the Animorphs, but is held back by what Visser 3 wants to do.

If anyone ever watched the Aladdin series, it would be like Abis Mal, and that tall guy. That way the enemies fail, but they are still somewhat threatening.

Or you could just have more character deaths and whatnot. There doesn't have to be that one teammate death in the very last book. Character deaths would have been fine, and perfectly realistic, if it had been going on since the beginning.
