Twilight season four returned to the grittier and darker tone that fans preferred. But it originally had only six episodes to close the series. The season premier blew everybody’s expectations though. It started with a quick montage of gang violence in Blacked Out Los Angeles and then showed glimpses of the Battle of London with Big Ben as the anchor point. Then it went full metal with the desperate Battle of Japan. It wasn’t the first time mecha appeared on a network series, but Twilight earned an Emmy nomination for its dramatic portrayal of the Japanese mecha fighting the Chinese landing forces on the western shores, interspersed with the loading of the evacuation ships in the eastern ports.
