The ending fight is exactly what it needed to be in terms of the themes of the show. Keep in mind the Grongi were humans. Humans who tossed aside their humanity. Take all the flash away you just have how horrible and pathetic people killing each other actually is. It's not cool, it's not badass, it's not glamorous, it's just fucking dumb.
Then on the one side you have this kid totally getting off on it all while on the other you have a person who has no choice but to fight till his last breath to stop him, knowing that he will have to kill him even though deep down the idea of hurting anyone breaks his heart.
I do think that Kuuga's first fight with Zeba should have been on-camera. I think being able to see the initial fight in-suit would have balanced the scaled down fight of the ending.
I have no idea why it was not filmed but I seem to remember reading that the story was covered in a radio special? Anybody who can confirm or deny this please do.
