I'm really curious about McGillis' true intentions. I don't see him betraying Tekkadan as I think he needs them but I also don't think their relationship will remain the same.
I'm starting to think he may intend to throw tekkadan away when he no longer needs them, but it seems like he may want mikazuki to join him.

So Shino is still playing around with women, huh? That would sure disappoint Yamagi but I guess he knows Shino well by now. I'm curious what Zack was about to say that Shino desperately stopped him. I wonder what happened the night they went out to play with women.

That's what I was wondering... I feel bad for Yamagi but yeah, this probably is no longer news to him. I wonder how Shino would respond if he knew about his feelings but like I've said in past threads, it most likely won't be conveyed until one or both of them are dying.

Damn it, though! I want to know what Zack was going to say!

This episode was so freaking intense. I never imagined the biggest enemy of the series would be a Mobile Armor, a machine that thought for itself and didn't need any human to pilot it. The music that started playing at the end brought the hype...why did it have to leave off there!? Don't die Mika, Orga, Chad, and Hush!

Iok had just one single job and f***ed it up, holy shit he is naive to the core.

I have the feeling that machine isn't the only one laying around...

-Eco, don't turn on that strange machine! It's dangerous!
-Eh, what are you talking about? *pushes button*
*machine fucks up the entire hanger*

-You're guilty of treason, I don't need any real proof for that though!
-Iok, don't step closer!
-Shut up!
*Steps into skynet's activation zone*

This fucking show. Just fucking listen for one second, everyone.


They've been doing those jobs for long. They're so used to the routine. They didn't know enough about those machines. It's only natural, then. You should complain more about the other person having noticed she'd press the button right before she did; it only happens in shows.

That Iok is just like that. It's his personality. He's naive and impatient - always anxious to please his master. He's been set up for something like this from the beginning, heh. We've been warned. And he hadn't studied enough about Gallajhorn's history to understand those Mobile Armors better, hm. That guy's really not bright. But is useful even so (loyal, too). He only really screwed up in something so subtle like this. Shouldn't we complain more that the machine hasn't detected them when they landed? But only when he made a step? That's again convenience in writing.

I was right about that being a mobile armor, but I didn't think that what they brought to saisei was only a part of it. I'm wondering if the Pluma is in the class of size with the big Mobile Armors?

Feel bad for Flauros having to be painted pink, doesn't seem like that color is suited for a gundam.

Casting aside the hatred for how everyone is seeing wrong, out of place characters in this series...
Was it ever explained how Mobile Armours were unmanned? Was it a simple AI or a human consciousness made into an AI?


Not said yet. It's really anyone's guess at this point.

God damn it, Iok... Some consideration before acting is a fine idea... It seems the lot stumbled upon something really troublesome.

I wonder, whether they manage to take the MA down in the following episode or not. If I recall correctly, it took Gundam frames, a resource that isn't overly abundant now, to take down the MA-s during the last war. In that respect, I hope modern MS-s with their single Ahab reactor compare favourably to the twin-reactor Gundam frames...

i feel like its guaranteed to go down next episode, i think its more a question of if its destroyed entirely or if mcgillis salvages it somehow

What a very dumb move by the Galarhorn dog Kujan!
The unmanned Mobile Armor has awakened! That was epic and the OST used!
5/5.

Almost everyone here knows what the fck is happening since they saw it in Gundam Age while I have no freaking idea how dangerous these AI's are, I mean sure a mobile suit that has a mind of its own is dangerous in its own accord like in IronMan on how Ultron came to be but does this have the same concept? anyways Im quite disappointed that theres no action again, the buildup has to stop, I want fighting!

Loving the new arc already, love begins to hatch in Tekkadan at last, and we get some 300 year old fight. Reminds me of Unicorn vs that huge mobile armor on Earth. Now, this time it is not piloted. Waiting for next ep

Finally, after ten episodes of mundane fights (save for a few ones that did stand out), we're going to have a war! :D

Oh, Iok. Boy, you done fucked up. He's like the guy who, if he gets shanked, you don't know if you should feel sorry or not. Still, I like the guy, I like the ones who fuck up and instantly regret it afterwards.

I was hoping McGillis would call up the people Yamagi was with an say "override the AI and control the Mobile Armor remotely to defeat the Gjallarhorn invaders".

Then I was like "Iok, you get what you deserve for being an idiot".

Zack bro-ing up with Shino.

Hush and Mikazuki remind me to Genos and Saitama. Funny how the former looks like Saitama with pale hair.

That guy just activated that Mobile Armor...what a dumb, he didn't even listen to McGillis... and plus they don't have Gundams with them.
Next episodes will show us how powerful these Mobile Armor AI's are.

What an episode. Lots of talking but it was meaningful for the build that could occur. Somehow people forget McGillis has a bride who is a child but at least the variety with a child that is driving and having different people having to experience different aspects of life especially money and love is unique and can easily be forgiven.

The real game?
LMAO at Chad. I can't believe it either.
Mobile Armor.
Don't turn it on!
LMAO at Chad.
Baka Hush. You don't get in the way of Mikazuki's harem time.
Fumitan's school. *sheds tears*
Hush, why don't you hush? That's not your concern.
What did Shino do?
Archenemies?
Messed up the place.
It's on!
Dat ending.

I didn't like this. I really feel like this show is losing me. Now there's basically a fantasy-esque story about ancient machines that have been banished for centuries only for people to struggle to uncover them. It's a very weird tonal shift. Also suddenly it's revealed that the Gundams are enemies of the Mobile Armor, a big reveal about things that were never really given much lorewise screentime. These are things I am not really ever a big fan of. Especially here this stuff felt really underdeveloped. Combined with how flat the characters are starting to feel, such a large cast with many characters only there to recite what are basically soundbite reminders each episode, IBO is really, really making me want to give up on it.

Can't decide which is sweeter between Kudelia naming the school after Fumitan and Mika being able to read its entire name.

Letting the mobile armor reactivate isn't normally a smart move but it might've just saved them with how vulnerable they are.
