Somewhat of a softer paced episode.

But seriously, the charm of Suletta's character is what really makes this anime appealing to me imo this season. Some goofy moments in this episode were just amusing with her various poses. She and Miorine's character chemistry is also starting to grown onto to me.

At this rate, Shaddiq will probably be the last boss of the first cour.

Miorine is such a cool bride! Love her chemistry with Suletta.

Shaddiq is quite the crafty guy, trying to get whatever he wants by any means necessary.

It is pretty scary how corrupt everyone in the series has been depicted so far. From Prospera to Shaddiq, it seems everyone has a hidden motive for their actions, and poor Suletta and Miorine are the ones having to respond to this unseen opposition. This episode was relatively lighthearted with Miorine just basically setting up GUND-arm, but the build-up suggests Aerial will have to face off in more duels soon against people vying for control of the GUND technology. Next episode should prove to be a lot more exciting and eventful, but this episode was nonetheless enjoyable.

Yeah my best boy Guel appear in this episode, and with a shipping moment with hot boy Shaddiq nonetheless. Shaddiq invite Guel to shower at his house! My heart beats so fast when Shaddiq said he's fond of Guel. But to be fair, Shaddiq is the kind of guy who will fond of everyone benefit to him. Anyone notice that Shaddiq is rank first in duel bet website? We might see him battle soon, if not as soon as the next episode.

I also have my own GUND-ARM business model that is not involve selling Gundam as a weapon.

1. Sell small Gundam plastic model as action figure toy
2. Make an anime about using Gundam as a weapon to promote figure sales
3. Profit!

The Suletta/Aerial commercial reminds me of Ranka Lee's Nyan-Nyan commercial. Ranka Lee is a character from Macross Frontier by the way~

Shaddiq reminds me of Frost brothers. Appears nice towards their enemies but have other plans to kill them~

Will continue to watch Witch From Mercury weekly. Wonder if there will be characters similar to Katejina Loos in this anime,

EDIT: Does anyone notice that Haro is very quiet in Witch From Mercury?

The PR video was quite... interesting. Showing that Gundam tech can save lives instead of take them is a great direction to take.
Especially since there is a stigma with the mobile suits killing the user- Eh? A new regulation? well... alrighty then. Guess that's business for you.
Considering the company is making medical tech surely this can meet the safety standard.

On a random note, Shaddiq's betting odds are even better than Suletta's. Looking forward to seeing him participate in a duel.

So they are gonna use gund format for it's initial purpose, for medical usage. Quite idealistic but if they can do it the world will be a much better place. Though they haven't even started and already found themselves in trouble. Time for duel with Shaddiq.

Sulleta will believe anything Prospera says. I like the suspicious look Miorine gives watching Prospera bewitch gullible Suletta.

Earth House could go from war orphans to profiteers of the military industrial complex but they choose to continue the ideals of GUND instead. I have a feeling they will eventually have no choice but to supply Earthian revolutionaries with mobile suits, though.

Suletta not recognising Dr. Cardo Nabo (in a video dated to A.S. 101) is more evidence that she is not Eri.

I feel like everytime the series is kind of picking up the whole duel backdrop just brings things down greatly, its kind of hard to feel any real attatchment to the conflict they are setting up here when the solution is a formulaic 1 on 1 fight that will clearly end with the super overpowered mech only sulletta can use winning.

Its only confirmed for 26 episodes split cour, but its possible its the typical 4 cour overall and these split cour makes up only the first season with another half being later down the line like gundam 00 and IBO's 2nd halves. Given the pacing of it I'm kind of leaning on, or at least hoping for, a 50 episode show cause if this is coming up on the halfway point its really dragging its feet hard.

Starting a company isn't as simple as starting a company. The amount of legal hoops that have to be jumped through and the amount of forms that need to be filled out and the paperwork that needs done is crazy to think about. Miorine is already running into trouble even after her grand display getting investors last episode. Square one of beginning a company is a lot of figuring out what you're gonna do. Miorine kinda just jumped in to save Suletta without thinking too much ahead, which was fine at the time but now that thinking is due. Coming up with a way to make the Gundam technology help people instead of just making weapons is an interesting choice. That a new idea for a Gundam anime to pursue. Most of the Gundam stories we've gotten so far revolve around stopping a war or surviving a war or surviving a political conflict or stopping some big bad guy. But not here, the students trying to help people as opposed to making weapons that cause pain is an inspiring choice for this series to go. The producers said they wanted to appeal to young people today with this new Gundam series and they've definitely tapped into how young people today think. Trying to help people instead of just mass fighting and taking things from others regardless of cause. I'm very interested where things will go now. Shaddiq it seems is being used by his dad but how far will he let that go.

Wow Miorine really is a force of nature in her determination. First time I seen a teenager force someone to work for her. Though at the least they would get paid. I guess its human nature to always fear the unknown. Nice to see that Miorine actually has a plan to get her company started. To get the answers that she needs Miorine sure needed to dig deep. Given their potential its a given that there would be customers willing to defy the ban on gundams. But choosing to pursue the original idea behind the gundams was pretty good going. Guess all the houses have their own harems Shaddiq included. Looks like our first challenge for the company is fighting off a hostile takeover.

This has gone from an excellent drama with an awesome Gundam and fighting, to a melodrama with no Gundam or fights. The recent formula is a fluff, story progression episode with a mean-spirited “get the Gundam” cliffhanger at the end, to the following solve-the-problem episode. Early on the problem was solved with a great Gundam fight but now it’s solved via dramatic chess play. I don’t want to watch an outer space 90210 anime with the occasional mecha. Please get better soon.

Glad to see Miorine step in to a bigger role in the story, hope Suletta will have her moments soon, because she just... exists right now. We knew Shaddiq was quite suspicious after last episode, and he is trying to take over Miorine's company to achieve his own goals.

The gang are in for a bit of a tough time here, Miorine will have to use her intelligence to get out of this.

I thoroughly enjoyed this episode. It really got into the minds of the Earth House kids. It's also good to see that not all of them are filled with youthful idealism. At the same time that scene of them trying to figure out what they want to do with the Gundams really shows that the staff are trying to reach out to the younger audience. I think a lot of youth can relate to wanting to do something in the world that makes a difference and helps people. Meanwhile, I appreciate that Shadiqq is a lot more cunning than his classmates, and with a more interesting plan and motivation to boot.

Anyway, more angry Chu-Chu is good!

This episode felt very slow compared to last week's climax of the "Peil Arc". But it's neither unexpected nor bad. The forming of the GUND-ARM Inc. and the development for the Earth House students might not be as intriguing as the foul play of all the Benerit Group members, but it's necessary to make the characters interesting. And I like how it finally connects to the prologue beyond Prospera's unknown plans.
The odds for the Duel Betting (1: Shaddiq / 2: Suletta / 3: Elan / 4: Guel) also forshadow Shaddiq as the next duel antagonist for Suletta and Aerial. Backed up by all his suspicious action this episode of course.
The ending was also beautiful, with the Earth students bonding among each other and Chuchu making peace with Miorine, followed by Suletta and Miorine driving under the starry sky.

I'm looking forward to the next epsiode now, as there are still many questions unawnsered. I just hope that, if it leads to another duel, it won't get repetative.

It was a nice episode but i just can't help to find it funny that Gundam solves all problems, it's like the impossible future for us now lmao

It was obvious that guy was planning something, now we just gotta see if he'll be able to or not, but i don't think our squad will allow him to.

honestly it is quite scary everytime the mom mentions that sulletta AND Aerial are her daughters and how much she loves them, i pretty much figured out that the plot here and the reason she's not getting hurt from using aerial. it's gonna be really sad when the truth will be revelead from what i deduce. Like everyone already mentioned, almost everyone is corrupted in some way, shape or form. Mind you i've never seen the past gundams before (due to me not really liking mecha animes).

Remembering how epic the prologue was doesn't exactly help with appreciating slower episodes like this with business meetings and such. Reminded me of hunger games mocking jay part 1 where they spend the majority of the movie making ads. The promotional video they made went pretty hard though. And this is a nice shot here.

Yeah, it was pretty hard to watch. The lofty heights of the prologue are probably not going to be reached before the end (if at all to be honest).

Looks like the company Gundam Inc. is good to go.

Miorine and Suletta go to Suletta's mom to ask for help and more information about gundams. Suletta's mom has even an robot arm which i didn't know lol.

Shaddiq then comes out of nowhere and asks if he can help Miorine with her business but Miorine doesn't know what he is doing behind her back.

At least Miorine's team is an helpful team, they all did their best to make the best of it (pv, logo etc).

Guel getting kinda bullied while he tries to eat normally. Shaddiq stepping in to stop it. Shaddiq's father wants him to get rid of the gundams.

Miorine wants more help so she goes to an woman that might know more about it.

Shaddiq still wants to help Miorine's business but it seems like Miorine declined it, I think. Miorine comes up with an 2 strategy plan and it seems like they go for the 2nd option to make gundams to save lives.

Miorine & Suletta riding the bike at night but quickly getting interrupted by an message that Miorine gets. Shaddiq ofcourse being an shithead and doing things behind Miorine's back, he wants to take over the company.

I really hope Suletta & Miorine's company doesn't get ruined by this idiot Shaddiq.

Anyway this was more an chill episode, I think.

So I'm guessing the main conflict they're setting up for the second half is between the Spacians and the Earthians.

Likely the real reason that the corpos shut down Gundam technology is because its medical applications would've improved the living conditions of the Earthians; but they need a weak underclass of workers to keep their capitalist system running.
