Who the heck was the dude from Uta1 then? Was he also a random human guy who survived? Was this background also revealed in Uta1 and does it tie in to it as well?

He was a human scientist working for some company then stumbled about the recovered fossil of the Wei being. Other human didn't want anyone to know about it then shot him in the head in front of the fossil. This caused the guys blood to go onto the fossil which awakened it. Wei made pact with dead dude that he'd revive him if he gave Wei his body. Then there's a massive time skip where you find him waking up after cryosleep. Turns out earths surface can't be inhabited by humans but now Mask dude has a special body so they try study him to figure out a way to modify themselves to be able to live on earth. Eventually one of the scientists feels sorry for Mask man so he lets him escape with the one animal girl. The other scientists track them down and kill Animal girl + her baby. This causes Mask man to rage awakening the sleeping Wei being powers which he uses to turn all humans to slime. Animal people and Mask man leave scientist place. The end.

Nothing about his background is really explained or if there were move human facilities below ground. Didn't even explain what on earth the ancient being thing was and why it had godlike powers.

They hint that it(The Fossil) is/was the missing link between Primate and Human, but it's never elaborated on iirc.

Is the emperor connected to the story anyway? Doesn't seem like it because he doesn't know anything about the slime thing. He must have missed all that when he was holed up.....but his story seemed like he was the one who raised all the animal people himself...does this mean the mc from uta 1 founded another country then?

The MC from Uta 1 basically splits into 2 after he does the slime thing. One of them sleeps while the other roams around creating his ideal world view then the roles reverse eventually. What actually happened after he turned the humans to slime isn't quite known. We just see him splitting and then all the animal people leaving the facility. The temple where the angel people live(If they still live there in Uta2) is where the old human facility was and where the slime people are. I think the slimes all die at the end of Uta1 when the 2 parts of the MC fight each other. At the end of Uta1 the MC forces his other self into the one body then he gets sealed by the Black winged Angel and her sister + Erururu.

Oh it's worth noting that his other half is more chaos orientated so when he was awake the countries would be more warlike then when MC is awake he's more peaceful. So it's entirely possible there's a bunch of countries founded by either of them that we don't know about.

That was an absolutely amazing show.
Episode 71 and 73 were indeed masterpieces, absolutely brilliant episodes. RIP Grimmer ; ;7

but I also thought they did a good job of showing bits and pieces of his adventure all over the world. Could they have used more episodes? sure but I don't see the pacing of the final episode as anything terrible or subpar tbh. Rather, I enjoyed that particular more than some of the earlier episodes.

I figured that it must be something big but that the current race are decoys that were created by the emperor who used to be a human and survived humanity's destruction after the disaster and subsequent earth bombardment was beyond what I thought the anime was going towards. Lots of information this episode but really sad overall.
