----------------------------------------
So we get more space battles this with Megafauna getting to the moon. Well, not that I find it very unexpected but the expedition was quite something with a race like game scenario.

It looks like Rariya reaches her home world. Nice. Kinda curious to see what Bell's next move is though.

Another good episode, the story telling really sucked early on but these last two episodes have been much better.

Looks like I was right, Towasanga is the new Zeon, those colonies and the asteroid fortress are at the lagrange point where Side 3 used to be (still is?).

First mention of newtypes. Hecate is awesome. Mick Jack gets the best mobile suits. Mick Jack is awesome. lolchoosingtheMoranovertheYG. Please. If it's red, white, and blue, it's a Gundam. Or America. Finally we are getting background on Bellri and Aida next week.

Good episode, battle was good, finally get to see a blink of O'neill type colonies ^^
Was getting tired of those G-self packs, but this one does seem to be of additional value

Good thing we're moving into a new arc in terms of story-telling, but Reconguista still suffers from a conventional mecha series problem: repetitive battles with often both sides suffering (improbably) inconsequential damages and retreating, only to return over and over, and over again. I don't know whether this is necessary either; the fight in this episode was at least somewhat significant, but a lot of the fights with the Capital Army early on were not. It looks like next episode will likely lean toward plot revelation.

Aida being Bellri's sister is a hardcore letdown though (from what the preview suggests). That basically means he has to be related to Raraiya somehow too, and that leaves Noredo as the only person Bellri might end up with? Jeez.

one week one backpack trend continues, this is perhaps the most useful and powerful pack gear so far.. clear homages to some past UC era gear

The MS design of the moon people resembles a lot of the Victory Gundam Empire and CV in F91. Generally i consider those excellent designs on their own, so i like these improved versions.

a bit more background detail was shown at last, but chop off conversation bits aint very effective story telling tool inter cutting with a guy doing proper space steam shower lol

over all, story still a bit loose in the set up, but otherwise good.

Well, the Assault Pack isn't technically new.

What why?

Because they piloted the G-Self? I don't think that's enough to imply a relation. The G-Self printed those little emblems for Aida and Bellri and recognized them (Rayhunton Code? Rayhunton being the name Aida assumed early on in the episodes. This was one of the first hints at their relation, in the show), but we haven't seen how it reacts to Raraiya. She did say she was just transporting the suit.

Yay, that a bit of the plot this time there!
Episode that has to offer a lot more than usual, and for this, it deserves my approval.
Narration usable, always cheerful atmosphere.
The next episode looks very interesting, can not wait to see him.

The fact that the Towasanga army wasn't using the G-Self, despite that it is clearly much more powerful than what they have, implies that only a very limited class of people can pilot it. Within Towasanga, the only person they were able to find was Raraiya. And the other two happen to be Bellri and Aida. Bellri and Aida are blood-related. This doesn't necessarily mean that Raraiya has to be related to either or both of them (I shouldn't have said "has to be"), but it's a piece of strong circumstantial evidence, especially given how we still don't know where Bellri came from.

Great episode!

Battles are much more intense!

It's kinda weird how i'm used to Raraiya being ditzy and all. But now she can fully talk and can be useful now :P

And wtf is Bellri talking like Kamille?!? "Don't make me use my rifle or else you'll all die" XD

Lol Towasanga abandoned G-Self and G-Arcane. Now their the most powerful mechs in that timeline :P

Serves you right for throwing out these machines like that.

Klim the Tensai Master!! Mick Jack The Tensai's partner!

Yeah. I remember Bellri's mother did said Bellri was adopted into the family. I wonder how Aida and him seems to be related? Species related? Newtype related??!?!

Damn bastards trapping Klim's team like that. Hope they get owned soon.

Getting good!!! Can't wait for the next episode!!

I loved this episode, lots of good Gundam stuff going on. The action looked fantastic, Towasanga looked like an interesting place. The Turn A vibes are strong right now.

The battle was pretty good compared to most of the battles we've gotten so far.

So Bellri and Aida are siblings?! Well there goes that ship.. :(

Apparently the airbags in G-Self can be visible even when not activated (noticed them in one of the frames from inside the cockpit)

I now understand that "accidentally" keeping Raraiya away from the eyes of Rockpie and other people from Towasanga was actually for a reason. They remember her.

Bellri ironically landed a kill after shooting a warning shot with no intention to kill.

"Legendary Newtypes"

Why're they worrying so much about damage to mobile suits on the Moon and in space, as if it's something categorically different?

Is it me or this Moon colony looks a lot like the setting/mobile suits of Victory Gundam an F91?
I don't know it gave me this vibes.
