This is why I'm suggesting the events of the final volume might happen "after" EX, when the war with the UL is over.

Also, look at it like this, even if they have to commit forces to destroying Trihexa while at war with the UL, if Ise and Vali are strong enough by then, they might be able to defeat Trihexa without much effort. We have no way of knowing how strong those two are going to be at the end of this ride.

Try and have some vision. If Trihexa is unsealed and destroyed, it means they get back all the God-Class beings that were sealed to fight it, which they can add to their forces against the UL.

This may be critical, since some of the Top 10 beings were sealed with Trihexa, Earth lost a significant amount of its power when the beast was sealed. They may "need" that to defeat the UL, even if it means fighting two "wars" at the same time.

Besides, EX gives off a vibe that the war with the UL isn't even that bad as it seems as long as they have Ise. Ise is destroying armies of them like nothing, and they are terrified of him. Why would they commit so much effort just to go back in time to kill a young Ise if that wasn't the case? Its like a Terminator situation, they want to kill John Connor, aka, Ise.

Overall, I don't think a long timeskip at the end of this series is uncalled for. These characters live for hundreds of years at least. Ise may very well live forever. They can pull a Tenchi Muyo move and jump like 40-50 years in the future because it doesn't matter, the characters never really age.

Besides, most series like this end with a big timeskip, like a sort of "where are they now" sort of situation. Who knows, that also could be the premise of Millicas short story. Kind of like how Boruto is a continuation of Naruto 20 something years down the line.
