| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- More of a calm episode about Tekkadan. I kinda liked the background storytelling at what they did with Hash. Kids have it tough in this series. ED theme song is alright, although I personally like the OP song better. |
 |
| The story the white haired guy told sure is terrible, but it seems he gained all the wrong motivations from that tragedy. It's basically like he's on a revenge quest against Tekkadan (even though Tekkadan is so not the same as CGS) and against Mika in particular. All of it only strengthens the suspicion many have voiced about him betraying Tekkadan later on. From other things, Orga is cool as ever, and his down-to-earth realism is what I still like best about him; Mika is still oblivious (it was funny how Yukinojou had to pretty much kick him out of the hangar so Kudelia could talk to him a bit) and emotionless unless someone tries to hurt those close to him (and wow, is he that monstrously physically strong because of the nanomachines and the Alaya-shiki?); and Atra is working hard on advancing her harem keikakuXD Oh, and Barriston and Gordon are still unlikeable as ever (kuso jiji-tachi). McGillis... I'm not sure what he actually wants to do there, under all the guises, keep purging all the potentially corrupt from Gjallarhorn? But well, Gjallarhorn and Tekkadan working towards the same purpose is gonna be fun, so scheme, McGillis, scheme, I enjoy watching it. |

| New boy will definitely turn traitor at some point with that level of hatred against Mikazuki (because we know he'll never top him in piloting skills). Kudelia and Mika's relationship seems to almost have reset itself. Not much friendship or complicity there. |

| Good episode, Mostly just buildup. Interesting, So McGillis is working with Tekkadan. Our antagonists for the upcoming battle are a couple of pirates who've been terrorizing trade routes and the sort. Quite an interesting comment by Atra saying Mikazuki's smell is like the smell of blood. I second @CG and @ixarising opinions about Hush, It's sad that he lost the person he looked up but it's not clear what he's trying to achieve. What will piloting a Mobile Suit give him? Pushing for a surgery that's been banned for the welfare of the crew seems pointless to me. If he wants to be someone respected, He has to earn that respect. It's clear he does not view Tekkadan as a place of belonging unlike the rest of the crew. Wow, The new masked man's mask glows. xD Spyair OP is awesome, ED is nice. It was nice to see kid version of Kudeila, Atra, Mika and Orga smiling. :) |

| "What is this arm doing?" GET REKT BADASS MIKAZUKI IS BADASS |

| And that Ending, mikazuki, orga, atra, and kudelia in their childhood <3 |

jmanmal said: I hope Hush won't become second Shinn from Seed Destiny. For now he's on the same side as the would be Kira. It's a thing in Gundam. People who are thought to die in combat, don't necessarily actually die. Not for the nobodies of course, but for people who had some special role. We won't get proof until he's demasked (willingly, captured or from the shock impact in battle), until he speaks (unless that mask has a very good voice changer), or until we see his reactions which would reveal him. |

It wouldn't be Gundam if there wasn't a masked man |
 |
| who is the guy in the mask? love the ending :D and the op too tekkadam is growing....magillis talking with tekkadam...they will have to fight with the pirates again uuuuh next epidode another fight nice! |
| SPACE HITLER IS BACK |
| C'mon... Gali Gali... You can still be alive!!!!! Nek minnit it's Carta Issue... The problems with the new recruits are more evident. Not everyone thinks of Tekkadan as their home and family. |
| not too happy cause Lupus' awesome action is cut short early.. c'mon sunrise don't be too stingy.. :/ |
 |
Feels like Gaelio. |
| That has to be Gaelio, i fucking hope it is him. I really like this character. Interesting stuff going on and you can't see where this is gonna lead at all. McGillis (Gjallarhorn)/Tekkadan uniting to fight pirates. |
if I didn't know this is a gundam show, I would instantly think this is a Kamen Rider anime.. |
|
| So He want's to be greater than Mikazuki, that's not gonna happen ;) Mika is the best *-* |
 |

| I honestly feel like theyre just messing with us with how much in your face obvious that the masked man is gaelio. Watch him turn out to be mcgillis' father of even mcgillis himself, since the guy knows a lot about him.. |

| Too much salt can ruin even the best of meals. |
| Atra building the harem! I love how they are showing the new recruits. The new guys just don't have the same bond with the originals right now. Good to see some development there! |
| Hash: 'I'll surpass Mikazuki Augus'. Me: IN YOUR DREAMS. |

I think mechanical hand in opening is just hand of Gundam Frame.   |
| I think the opening is hinting that Mika will lose the control over his legs. |

animmar said: Yeah, he's pretty zealous about psychical training, but every time I see his feats of strength, I have to wonder if it's humanly possible for someone of his build to be that strong without external factors like the nanomachines of the Alaya-shiki. I mean he's all wiry muscle, but is short and by no means heavily-muscled like Akihiro, for example... Yet he easily lifted a much bigger Gaelio by the neck with one hand, carried both of his girls around without even breaking a sweat (while running, too, though with small Atra it's not much of a feat), had no problem jerking Orga's weight around with one hand again when Orga had a BSOD period after Biscuit's death, and in this episode Hash, who isn't exactly under-developed himself, couldn't so much as twitch his arm in Mika's grip, while Mika was pretty much ready to snap his wrist like it was a dry twig or something, all with one hand again... All of the above leads me to the possibility that it's not just improved reflexes and spacial awareness that the nanomachines (3 times the normal, at that) give Mika.i dont really know if alaya-shiki boost his strength, but mikazuki was shown training his body though... lord23 said: Oh, optimists among us. Well, not that I mind; as long as the plot involving him is interesting, I don't mind Hash staying a loyal family member.Pretty calm episode and it was nice, also guys I don't think hash is a bad guy he just isn't really good with talking with people plus he hasn't meet Orga yet so who knows how is character will be. ( I doubt he will betray the fam ) |

| The real twist at this point would be if the masked man NOT was Gaelio, then I'd be shocked but otherwise not. Mostly a setup episode but I can already tell I will not like Hush... |

Tenth said: The real twist at this point would be if the masked man NOT was Gaelio, then I'd be shocked but otherwise not. Mostly a setup episode but I can already tell I will not like Hush... I thought the same about Amuro and Kamille, it really depends on what they'll do with the character. I hope they won't make him a new Shinn Asuka though.... Would be better to have him find his place in tekkadan |
| Its all set up for the coming arc but im liking where it is all going. |

that bakugou guy gonna be like shinn isnt he? just like Ein |
Cross  AngeHey guys check my profile for current airing season anime recommendation (guaranteed best taste) |
| Omg Hash flashback. He hates Mika omg. |
| Gah I hate that Hash guy already. I feel like he is going to be the Ein version for Tekkadan. He got his arm almost broken by Mikazuki, protecting Atra. >.< Man I really hope he fully learns what Tekkadan has went through, because it feels like he will betray Tekkadan at some point which I hope doesn't happen. Man Barbatos Lupus is pretty cool. Come on Bandai, Master Grade Barbatos when? Masked guy is definitely Gaelio. I would like to see him get a revenge match against McGillis. Hahaha. Very cool ending too, they are all kids. |

| Great episode, as usual xD Mikazuki so badass. Poor guy, i understand why he wants to do that surgery. I wonder who is that guy with the mask, another masked guy that will help Tekkadan (hope so). |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| I feel an edgy character already named Hash. And that masked man in the end, I'm sure it's Gaelio. It's good that they're showing the disadvantages of having a large group, even with the currently famous Tekkadan now. It seems that the unity that Tekkadan have in the previous season only remains in the inner circle. The ED, got to protect that smile. |

| well looks like Mikazuki little harem is still on going though as long as it doesn't take up alot of time from the series i'll be cool with it as for that pale blond new guy even with knowing his past still dont like him and dont feel sorry for him and lastly really love the new ending really nice |
| "one step at a time" |
| none of those smiles will be protected |

| so mcgillis is still "working" with them huh guess it's to early for him to end up as the final boss if he still does |
 |
| Damn...Hash's past is so tragic. But what he got from it is just wrong. I don't like his ideals. Trying to be stronger than someone to prove something is not the right way. Mika almost crushed his hand when Hash raised his arm to Atra. That was awesome. It just goes to show how strong Mika really is. I'm really curious who the man in the mask is. Looking forward to the next episode. |
 |
| Damn that was a sad backstory from Hash, I can't get over how terrible all of these kids' childhood have been, and what they've been told. Hash's anger and frustration really is misplaced though, but not everyone will have the same attitude and/or goals despite coming from similar background. It's more realistic to have such diversity in attitude among these kids, even if someone like Hash may not be fun to watch. I hope he can grow to realize that there's no point in wanting to be better than Mikazuki in order to show that he is capable. Loved the brief scene between Mika and Kudelia, and Atra XD The bracelet seemed to mean a lot to Kudelia though. |
| Hash's past is so sad and awesome fight at the start albeit short |
