Lalah is starting to get on my nerves.

Anyway, given that there are only 3 episodes left, I wonder how they'll end the series..

I kinda like her. Newtype vs newtype was pretty intense, but the ending is coming on pretty fast. Honestly I'm not expecting a very satisfying ending, surely lots of questions will remain to be answered (hopefully) by Zeta Gundam.

"You're a bad man! You're hurting Char!"

How about you, Lalah? You have allowed Char twist your mind until now... until now you have become a blood-spilling machine yourself.

I kind of feel that Lalah has been mishandled. I think there is a lot of potential for her character but she just hasn't turned out to be as interesting as should could be. I Origin will expand her role a bit.

I love how Char's MS can lose one arm and not explode when mook's suits are destroyed from smaller hits.

Apparently that guy now thinks that Hitler was great leader. Too bad Hitler wasn't that great war stragegist...

Like Kai' said, as long as she doesn't hurt Char, all is well.

Ow and the Hitler-from-the-middle-ages line was priceless.

And what the hell is wrong with this show and its previews, exactly ?! Way to spoil everything that's gonna happen in the next episode. Godammit...
Hope they fix this shit in Zeta 'cause otherwise I'm gonna be pissed.

Wow what an amazing episode!!!

So that Mosk Han is the one that made the Gundam much more faster and flexible?? I'm surprise Amuro didn't use his father's parts back in Side 6.

I wonder if we'll see him again on Zeta Gundam with Amuro's data being use for future battles :)

Zeon is getting a little desperate now. I kinda don't blame the soldiers for putting Lalah on the front lines since she can pretty much handle it, but needs more experience.

Kycilia's full face :P

The battle between Lalah and Amuro is awesome!!! I kinda get how the multiple laser beams sequences were still being use in the newer Gundam series to this day!!!

Amuro could have died there without knowing what hit him, thankfully Lalah saved him for future series!!

Lol at "You Hurt Char!!" "Your a bad person for hurting Char"

The Batt;es are getting much more intense!!! Only 3 episodes left T__T

But Zeta Gundam is finally here!!!

Can't wait!!

So uh, they're wrapping the Gundam in fields of light to make it move faster.

Wrapping... light...

...

Anyway, the battle at the end of the episode was pretty intense. I would agree with insan3 in that Lalah's character started out pretty intriguing, only to now seem rather simple and straightforward. Does she not understand that she's killing people? I'm not even sure how that would be possible given her comments about the bird when she met Amuro.

I thought it was funny when Amuro completely misinterpreted what Sayla meant by "newtype".

That preview spoiler was awful.

Hitler as your role model, that won't end well for you.

Lalah is mad because someone attacked Char? Uh lady how many have you attacked? You don't think that would cause some rage?

Pretty eventful episode, the interesting aspects that occur behind the battlefields, maybe that's the most interesting part of the whole narrative. Admittedly, now Casval fell into the background as part of the fighting, Amuro and Lalah are the masters. I imagined something more sophisticated for updating the Gundam, oh well!
Some phrases I think that will come in the story, one of which actually belongs to Char.

THe funniest/weirdest part of it for me was how Gihren had no idea what his father was talking about, and how he took it. I know it happens far away in the future but it's so weird that a "capable" military dictator has no knowledge of History/looks down on it in this way. (well, the charadesigner "excused" that by making Degwin a universitary history professor...)

I was surprised to see that Ghiren and Kycilia seem to be the truly bad Zabis, though it seems that Degwin did kill Zeon Zum Daikon. Perhaps he found Zeon's ideas to be too radical but still good enough. Comparing Ghiren to Hitler gives a real chill to this episode. Another thing we saw was Lalah's instability, a similarity to Amuro's own actions in the past. Newtypes are fragile. Also the preview spoiled stuff. They shouldn't do that.

At this point, Char doesn't even stand a chance against Amuro anymore. He lost despite having back-up from Lalah. We really approaching the finale now.

Lalah seems to be really idolizing Char for some reason. Wish they'd elaborate on that a little because right now it's just not comprehensible at all. Lalah is just there to help out and we don't know where she came from, how they found her and what's her reason for helping Zeon is.

Everyone in this thread complaining about a spoiler in the preview makes me glad I started skipping them. Cool that nobody typed that spoiler out here, now I'm curious. I'm assuming it's another death.

yes, she seems someone that doesn't want war yet she is happy to destroy enemy ships (lives)?

it seemed like she didn't want maquve to die yet she's still fighting and happy when she manages

a bit dumb if you ask me. whats her purpose exactly?

@Byniavo The Hatte incident where Zeon gassed a colony and dropped it on Earth killing billions of people was shown (though not explained) in the very first episode. Zeon was always supposed to be unambigously evil. The Gundam lesson isnt that both sides are equally good/bad, its that even an objectively horrible nation/military has many regular, good and honorable people in it.

But even if a hypothetical Natio X was comprised to 99% of objectively good, kind-hearted and innocent people, that means jack-shit if the 1% in charge of Nation X plan to eradicate the lesser races and commit mass-genocide after they win. At that point they have to be stopped, even if good people die as a result.
