| Epic. Sill wondering what that gundam was that we say in setsunas past. Guess we must wait till next season. Trans-am = epic win |
  |
| If you take a look at the manga, it definitely confirms that the current Gundams we see are 3rd generation and that there were Gundams before them. I just wonder why the world took no notice of them until now. And the episode was epic. Sad I read spoilers on it so I wasn't as surprised when Exia goes into 'Super Mario' mode or when the Trinitys got axed. |
| Well that's a neat feature. |
 |
| There's one thing bothering me. When the Flag was upgraded, Graham had hard times pushing it because of the forces his body took. What will it do now when he gets a GN Drive on it? Will they modify the cockpit to make it more Gundam-ish or will he push his body so far that it could kill him, just for the sake of taking the Gundams down? Maybe he'll go with normal pace but with increased powers only. That's what's bothering me. |
     |
| ^ I think that might be a non-issue w/ GN Drives, for w/e reason. And, yes, it appears in the manga that all of the previous Gundams retain their GN Drives (the first chapter had someone launching in a Gundam...). The Trans-Am is garbage. Like some other people, I was hoping that the Gundams were going to be nerfed for 00, after the ridiculousness of the Strike Freedom. I was also holding out for Nena to be killed and Johann to live... oh well. I hope Nena doesn't end up joining CB, though. I'm also hoping that Lockon gets his eye fixed, but it's prolly not going to happen. What'll be interesting to see is the actual purpose of the GN Arms. Is it a support system? Is it a ferry? It'll also be interesting to see the thread that ties Corner, Harvey, the Thrones and Ali together. I think the implication of "you were made to be sacrifices" is that they were part of the plan, but who knows? |

Jacut said: The script is becoming even weaker than that of Destiny with all the futile over-dramatization and the obvious "coincidences", and the characters develop to be as bad as those of Gundam Wing (Bishonen ftl !). There are some good things though, the OST by Kenji Kawai, the series has a very good pace and this Gundam looked somewhat promising at the beginning... but it's almost screwed now. Hope that the second season will be more interesting, but I'm starting to doubt it. Maybe Sunrise will get serious for their next Gundam series (Tomino come baaaack !). But maybe I don't enter in the core target of this series which is more aimed towards girls and teenagers than the real Gundam series. Still for a Gundam fan like me, it's a real disappointment, SEED was MUCH better, even if it was far from the best... This was Gundam Wing v.2 from the start, but you gotta stop insulting it and saying that POS SEED is anything NEAR as good. I'm a HUGE Gundam fan, by the way, and I think this series is excellent. I haven't liked one this much since 08th MS. Even Zeta isn't as good. (Kamille was awesome, but EVERYONE in the show seemed to think they had carte blanche to beat the hell out of the kid. Fuckers.) For people who don't know yet....this is seriously Gundam Wing version 2. If you absolutely hated G Wing, pull out now. I mean, could it have gotten anymore obvious when the girl called the GN-X mobile suits "dolls"? (Like, Mobile Dolls.) And there were painfully obvious hints before then. So while this show is far, far better than Wing was, its still got most of its roots from that series. Anyway, I loved this episode: 1.) They killed most of the Trinity Family! AWESOME. The way they were running around like they owned the place had gotten real tired, real fast. 2.) Ali-Al Sarshes got OWNED by Setsuna! I REALLY hate that guy. He's been a jerk since they first introduced him, and finally he got the beatdown. I kinda hoped he'd die, but he can't have much longer. 3.) Corner got bitchsmacked by Aeolia. After being a more annoying more bishie version of Treize, he got outmanuvered this ep...by a DEAD GUY. ("I got you from the GRAVE, nigga! You'll NEVER get me back! ROFLMAO) I don't know who didn't see this coming. The GN-X suits were introduced much, much too soon. Still, this upgrade came sooner than expected too. Guess there are a lot more surprises to go with this series... |
| Jumping in Headfirst - I hear reading it causes immortality. Warning. Reading may not actually cause immortality. |
| Johann and Michael kicked the bucket so soon! Nena should've died then! oh well, she will before this season ends >=) And Graham is going back on his words to fight CB using GN drives. Hmmm.... Veda has thought up of everything! But should have made the place self-destruct instead... coz that Corner guy is really annoying Lockon lives but he can't pilot a Gundam. Meanwhile, Setsuna has finally unlocked becoming a full Gundam !!! Glowing Red Exia. Mmmm........... |

| that was f***ing awesome. I am so pumped. I missed seeing some CB kickass. |
 |
| Holy crap! one of the best episodes yet, the ending left me speechless and hungry for more! |
 |
| AHHHHHHHHHHHHH, it happened to me again!!!! Series get licensed and I don't notice until I think "hmmm... haven't seen any new episodes for that in a while...". First Shigofumi, then True Tears, now Gundam? *cries* Well, off to download torrents.... |

I watch currently airing anime on a streaming site rather than downloading everything onto my poor little laptop (I do need to do work on it too xD) and whenever a series gets licensed, they stop uploading new eps... so I usually don't find out for 2-3 weeks after the fact, and then I'm so behind T.T |

Oh well. |

| That's weird... usually I just take their word on it, but it looks like some other sites have been screwing up whether it's licensed or not... Weird. But as you say, oh well. Doesn't make my situation any different xD |

Doesn't make my situation any different xD lol yeah since you can always find a way to see it. I wouldn't mind it to be licensed anyway since I'd buy the DVD so since i haven't heard any other place report the licensing , this came out as a surprise. |
(made by MistaCloudStrife ^^) |
| dunno about that. If Bandai is going to do the same thing they did for Code Geass , they will probably announce the license around of the big event like AX ...so maybe they'll announce it this year. |
(made by MistaCloudStrife ^^) |
| I heard something about Cartoon Network picking up 00, but that's prolly all hersay and speculation. As far as I know, though, it's not currently licensed (AnimeSuki still has links, and they're usually pretty good about stopping linking after a show gets licensed)... |
| |
| I liked this episode a lot, it's weird to see the Trans-Am come out from nowhere but I liked that Ali went against the Trinitys and cut'em up like that. Looking forward to more. |

Requal said: According to the spoilers (which have been 90% accurate up to ep 22), Alejxandro should be killed by Livonze next episode. Spoilers (90% accurate, first posted in Jan/Feb) It was all part of the plan. Care posting the link, as ep 23 throws the predictions off course, although prediction #27 is a likely ending to the series |
  Dibs on Ishida! |
| Very very cool. Looks like I'm in for a great first half end to the series. On the other hand I feel the wait for season 2 could as painful as Code Geass' return... |
 |
| Exia...went Shining Gundam?! o.o |
 |
| seriously amazing episode. but i dont understand why every time some one retreats in this anime they just let them go. i dont think there was a single time when some one gave chase after a retreating enemy. ali al whatever should die a humiliating death at the hands of setsuna. and is the exia the same gundam from setsuna's flashbacks? if so wth happend to the wing looking gn particles thingymajig. |
      |
| That episode was just fucking awesome. I didn't have high expectations when starting this series either. |
 |
| I was blown away by this episode. I never liked the Trinity and now I feel sorry for them? @_@ Awesome episode! |
 |
| I was waiting for Exia to unleash something special! So all the Gundams will have some mad power now? Ali makes a cool antagonist. Can't say I'm too upset about the Trinity brothers...Although that was a harsh way to bow out. In conclusion: Lockon looks awesome with an eyepatch! |
| Your search on "Oran Solus" returned the following quotes: "Oran Solus? I know him. What a wanker. He still owes me a tenner." Oscar Wilde "Oran, you're so intelligent and awesome <3" Bakayaro "Oran's sexy." LolitaDecay "Oran is a sophisticated penguin." Drybananna "Oran is a Hand-Eye you faggots." EddieSpaghetti "Oran for Prime Minister." the_prime_one "Oran is all that is stated in his sig and more." orbitzz |
| Very exciting episode. O___O |

| Whoa, Ali really did a number on Trinity. After I got over my shock I actually felt a little bad for Michel. Is he the best pilot of all of them? Better even than Graham Acre? I'd love to see them both go at it. I mean, we already know that with equal technology Ali would kick Setsuna's a$$ in a MS fight. |
 |
| Ali. What a marvelous asshole. Trans-Am was necessary to give the Gundams a fighting chance at this point. |
starseeker said: This.THIS EPISODE IS EPIC |
 |
| EPIC episode. Loved Exia's Trans-Am mode, Tieria's soft side showing, and the Trinities' deaths (Nena should go join her brothers too). |
     |
| Glad to see the Gundams leveled up. I was wondering what was going to happen, since defeating so many Gundams with eh GN drive was looking impossible. I even started to feel bad for Trinity Gundam pilots and glad at least one of them survived (even though Nena was the one to senselessly kill all those people at the wedding). Great episode. |
| Fixed? Why the term fixed? Poor, Lockon. He lost his right eye. :/ Oh my, this episode is EPIC! Best episode for me! So the four original drives had Trans-Am system which makes them faster and stronger. Poor Nena, losing her two brothers. |
"Perhaps the distant part of the sky always seems clearest, so that we will always strive to reach it."  chiquit |
| I am just sad that the sister of the trinity wasn't killed as well. She was the one I hated the most. |
| To say Aeolia was well-prepared is an understatement. Just how many backup plans does that guy have? Even in death he is still pulling strings from behind! The arrival of the mass-produced pseudo GN Drives combined with superior tactics by military forces exposed the weakness of the Trinity faction: they weren't very skilled pilots. Nena survived, but what role could she possibly play now that her faction has been eliminated? What about Saji? Last 3 episodes for season 1... |
| Neena should have died, she's too annoying. CB pilots are not special at all, they just have the upper hand with technology. |
| Well one of the Trinities had to survive and saying Aeolia was well-prepared is a huge understatement. |
| Leave it to Aeolia to have a trick like that stored away - his death triggers his final hope. I couldn't help but feel for Trinity this episode, but I still wish Nena had died instead of Mihael. I wonder what Saji's role is going to be in all of this, it really seems like they're setting him up to either take on his father/sister's will with journalism or possibly become an avenger at some point. |
 |
| The Trinity's got what they deserved after their slaughter of innocent civilians. ONe more powerup for the Gundam's. I wonder what else Aeolia had in store for them. |
| "Perhaps there is a universal, absolute truth. Perhaps it justifies every question. But that's beyond the reach of these small hands." 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 |
| Ali Al-Saachez! Yeah! He just walks down and shoots 'em. Been waiting for him to steal Throne2. I forgot Setsuna faught him here though... also forgot trans-am was revealed there too. |
  |
| More mystery added to the plot and characters continue dropping like flies. It's weird how it works; I was rooting for the HRL when they stopped Trinity's intervention and knocked their asses out, now all of a sudden I was thrilled that Setsuna showed up and saved Nina. Nina. The most sadistic bitch in the entire group. How the hell did that even happen? Yeah... I wish Johann was the one saved instead, though. He was the only one I liked. *sigh* |
