I think for this limiter release, Mika will have to sacrifice something again. Maybe his left/right leg. Still Epic episode though, will all of the battle tactics, Flauros Transformation and Mika's Word at the end

I need to point out that in every single mecha series that has a romantic subplot (Gurren Lagann, Eureka 7 for examples) that two people riding in a single mech is usually seen as romantic. This show is totally shipping Shino and Yamagi and I love every second of it. Also it was fantastic on the other front to see Atra and Kudelia admit they liked each other too and Mika, basically guaranteeing some sort of polygamy relationship. Iron Blooded Orphans is pretty damn progressive and I love it for that.

loved the action in this episode, especially getting to see flauros in action for the first time and that it can turn into an artillery gun. Guess we have to wait to see Orga's shiden in action.

Mika in the opening, we can't see his right eye/arm, so apparently he'll also 'lose' his right leg, if not both.

Julietta should stop caring about Iok already. She is just wasting her time. Just let him die.

Whenever Kudelia and Atra say they love Mikazuki, that means Mikazuki will die in the next episode. Glad that Yamagi is in Flauros with Norba. That means they are officially a couple! Good thing Barbatos and Gusion stopped functioning. Mikazuki and Akihiro have to die for Orga to realize his dreams for Tekkadan in Mars. I can feel Hush Middy will replace Mikazuki as a main character for the second half of s2. Glad Ride survived because we need him as a comic relief. If Akihiro dies, Chad will replace Akihiro. Iok Kujan survived and should cause trouble for everyone in Mars. The Mobile Armor should wipe out humanity! Humanity is trash and needs to be reformed so planet earth doesn't get anymore abused!

Iok 3rd times a charm lulz. Lol Gali has to babysit idiot instead of fighting.
That princess carry in a cockpit ship.
Love triangle reaffirmed.
First time Mika defied Orga, tho he still lives as if human debris, willing to sacrifice himself for tekkadon. No dun wana see him so paralyzed.

I honestly don't think Mikazuki will die but who knows. I mean, he's the main character, so it's difficult to see him dying at this point. However, him getting paralyzed is a big possibility. Will Hush really replace him? Isn't it a bit late at this point? I mean, if that were to happen, shouldn't it have happened at the beginning of this season and not on the second cour?

I don't like the love triangle between Atra, Kudelia, and Mikazuki. However, it's refreshing to see both girls accepting of the other girl's feelings and even supporting each other. At this rate, I think Kudelia has a better chance mainly because she's a typical Gundam heroine but I hope not. I like Atra more and I think a relationship between her and Mikazuki will be much more interesting. Mikazuki still doesn't have a special romantic interest in either girl but I think it's about time it happens. He has more screen time with Kudelia and he already kissed her, so most probably he'll fall for her.

Ah, I like Shino/Yamagi but I won't get my hopes up as it most probably won't go anywhere but I liked their scenes together in this episode.

Iok is a true idiot but I really don't hate him as he doesn't seem to have cruel intentions. It's just that he's so naive and stupid.

It seems McGillis is angry now that he's aware that Gaelio is still alive. I bet that will ruin his future plans for Gjallarhorn. I'm actually happy to see him losing his cool but who knows what he will do now. I think he will most probably try to eliminate Gaelio again but I hope he won't succeed. Killing Gaelio for the second time will be bullshit.
I wonder what Gaelio looks like now. Is he still the same or did he get disfigured or something?

Ioq is the most useless scum of the whole solar system!
Damn that Gundam Flauros (Ryusei-go IV) is so awesome and that savage weapon electromagnetic launcher Galaxy Cannon!
Mikazuki saves the day again... what's-up with his bloody right eye!?
I though Fareed is a great mobile suit pilot?!? looks like that mobile armor is too strong and according to the preview even Barbatos would a have a hard time taking it down!
5/5.

Holy shit!

I'm having trouble deciding which moments of the episode were more epic than others. After all, this one has them all - an MA getting bitch-slapped, an MS going into beast mode and a transforming MS. The latter is perhaps even more overwhelming in terms of power.

Of course, the pilots don't disappoint either - Iok is still Iok and two former friends meet again. Julietta is also looking a lot more likeable. Still, I'm looking forward to even more mysteries unfold.

10/10 episode & anime.

I'm pretty sure if Julietta wasn't working for Iok, she would've shanked him a long time ago.

More action in this episode. I was getting bored of the episodes that were too mellow and I know those episodes build character but come on, this is MS Gundam. We need more action.

Kinda disappointed they forgot what explosives are.
Ride gets saved two too many times by Mika.
Good episode. Lots of action.
Can't believe the farm got wiped because of idiot-boy's revenge lust.

I thought someone important or from tekkadan was going to die, but good thing that didn’t happen. Shit is about to go down.
Why was takaki sitting close to that guy in the mobile suit though?

lol Iok is such a cheap comedic relief character. It makes me miss Patrick from 00 he was awesome imo.


Patrick was actually funny despite his plot armor, but there’s nothing charming about this thick-headed pilot. Damn this comment makes me miss him too.

Vidar leaves.
Holy shit! Dat nose bleed!
Orga, Merribit, and Nadi in the same scene. Tension.
Fucking baka Iok.
Baka Iok.
Atra asks the question.
She said yes! lol at Atra smiling. Atra's harem keikaku is almost complete.
Kudelia likes Atra too? Atra likes Kudelia. Harem keikaku complete?
Iok, urusai!
Ride is in Ryusei-Go.
GYARAKUSHII CANNON!
Ryusei-Go IV?
Mikazuki saved Ride again.
Dat ending.

Gundams glitch out when near the mobile armor, but then seem to stop glitching out when it is convenient not to (like later in the episode). The Calamity War is kind of interesting, as it seems like the tech then was basically like a more standard Gundam series. Iok is a terribly annoying character that is basically providing bad comic relief during tense moments that don't need it. It's weird. Mika getting red-eyed is cheesy, but I am interested in seeing what happens. Also the scene where Atra and Kudelia reveal their feelings about Mikazuki was cute and awkward. It didn't really provide any result, but I am glad that it happened.

Julieta being done with Iok is such a mood.

Everybody gangsta till the Barbatos' eye starts bleeding. Also funny how Atra and Kudelia are both still cool with sharing Mikazuki.

ad awesome, intense episode.
too bad mika decided to pratically sacrifice himself removing barbatos' limiters, i have a really bad feeling about this.
fortunately at least Ride was saved.
