| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- So far I think this has a pretty good "world setting" which Tomino is really good at. Unfortunately, Gainer the MC is mildly irritating which makes it a bit difficult to enjoy the show. I LOL'ed at the line "Instead of dying, why don't you bear my child!". Only in anime. |

Mamoru Oshii There is a cult of ignorance (...) nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that “my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.” Isaac Asimov |
| The world building is very interesting, which is something that Tomino excels at. The story device of thrusting a character into a situation that the character is coincidentally also really good at, is another Tomino-ism. But so far in this story, I'm not sure I should be rooting for King Gainer, since he doesn't like the Exodus, but is also somehow the best pilot for the Overman, so fights for the Exodus anyway. His motivation is definitely at odds with his actions. |
