Zeheart decides that he'll be the one to fight the Gundam next meeting in a red Vagan mobile suit.

Desil appears. Zeheart inherited the ex-rounder ability.

mm ArisaxAsem moment

Nice shot by Asem~

Zeheart vs Asem Zeheart got asem but couldn't deal the final blow.

Asem got his ass kicked pretty well by Zeheart.

Plus the preview is epic. AGE-1 vs. AGE-2.

Epic battle choreography. One of the most memorable fights thus far, and Desil so cool.

I should have never doubted Age-2 and the power of friendship. Zeydra is hot.

Well, it's getting much better compared to the dull first arc. Hopefully the third gen will be greater.

I think they are really trying different storystyle and character relationships with different generations.
bla bla bla
The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.

Shirtless Decil yum. <3 Can't wait to see him going insane on the battle field again. The relationship between Zeheart and Decil is confirmed that is his brother since he called him Decil-niisan.

So that mask helps Zeheart control his X-Rounder powers. I don't think the previous Char clones masks did that. xD

Arisa slapping Asemu's butt came out of nowhere this chick is awesome.

Nice battle between Zeheart and Asemu and that kick was epic.

While other naive fanboys and fangirls run around in real life forming clubs and squealing in deafening high pitch noises about their favourite animus, we remain here, meticulously dismantling the credibility of each and every show, until all that remains is a steaming pile of tropes and ass pulls which we then devour to gratiyfy our glutinous and masochistic desires.

Char joins the battlefield!

Gotta admit, probably the most action packed episode thus far. If Asem got his ass handed to him, i can inly imagine what would have happened to woolf. Wonder when Asem is going to awaken his newtype powers.

Unless they do something different and not having him be a X-Rounder like Flit.

Wow, first time that the Char mask actually has a purpose other than hiding the bishie visage/true identity.
And it's 3 times faster!

Anyways, the conflict between the rivals might be getting deeper but the basis on where it began still felt pretty weak to me. That 1 and a half year that Zeheart spent on highschool being his infiltration mission and its payoff being measly data from Feds and not much data from Gundam is still bothering me up to this time. It didn't quite establish much the friendship and rivalry for the two. Meh, let's not let it weigh me down.

AGE-1 vs AGE-2? And AGE-1 gonna explode? Wtf?

Would Asemu be the first protagonist in quite a while who wouldn't be a Newtype/Innovator/X-Rounder but would win against a Newtype/Innovator/X-Rounder?

IMO I think Asem has the ability and probably inherited from his father but it's just not awakened yet. Who knows if he really has the x-rounder ability though only future episodes will tell?

LOL Desil is mad that Zeheart's rank is higher than his

AGE-2 vs Zeydra fight was epic

and i wonder if the AGE-1 vs AGE-2 is a simulator, the beam that hits the AGE-2 is pink while the Vegan MS beams are yellow

at least i think so...

Best episode of the series hands down. It was good both in terms of character development and battle scenes, plus the direction actually made sense.

Zeheart sure loves to kick Mobile Suits, I think he kicked the AGE-2 around 3 or 4 times during the battle. Really liked how Asemu was using that Waverider mode a lot during the fight too.
Epic fight aside, I was soooo hoping for a Millais slap lol.

Just wait for them to add Gundam AGE to a game, and we'll hear him shout. Hope they make a Gunbuster, TTGL, AGE combo (TTGL only because of the lack of Kyosuke).

Well, the 'watching' number under stats is more or less the same as it has been, there's just not as much to talk about as in a wham episode like 14 or 15. I just wish the show's score wasn't so damn low.

Same it at least deserves a 7.25+ rating. It will go up by the time more people complete or watch it. Hopefully this series will pull a Horizon where it stayed at the 6.60 range until the end of the series then jumped to 7.22.

Now for 0079 and SEED Destiny those need to be in the 6.00 range imo I found them bad and the quality isn't great either. One is dull, slow, and boring and the other one was only good for the new characters like Shinn and Luna. These two are hellva lot worse than AGE at least in my opinion.

LMAO, in one episode, AGE filled many of Gundam's tropes

1. Token masked guy, too bad he's not blonde
2. masked guy pilots RED mobile suite, which is 3x as fast! (I laughed so hard at this)
3. masked character is on the opposite side of the battlefield, and is obsessed with the Gundam
4. female ship captain

I also laughed so hard at them actually giving a valid reason for Zeheart to wear a mask, that's not to hide an identity or scars. Nope, the mask is not aesthetic, it actually does something, and no, don't take it off XD

Woolf is filling the role of the older mentor. Likelihood of his death went up to 90%.

I agree. Zeheart and Asemu's friendship feels pretty weak, since most of their time spent together was montaged. Kinda reminds me of Flit's relationship with Yurin, they spent time together and became friends in a montage, so we don't really feel the strength and depth of their friendship

"Desil-niisan" ? I was not expecting a brother's rivalry to stack up on the character already caught in the ennemies friendship.
I smiled a bit when I heard the mask reason to be: "you're a too strong Newtype, hide your face." Also a bit surprised that Asemu is not a X-Rounder, he is a more skilled pilot than her father but will never become an "ace pilot" without some hereditary precognitive ability. And he has sadly not the same IQ to make up for it.
The red suit was of course "three times faster", glad I read The Origin enough before watching this episode.

One can wonder, watching the fight, if someone in the anime staff was not a big Char fanboy/girl: Zeheart gave so many kicks. Not a fan of this torso beams collision, it made too "super-robot". I have a question after this fight Nittô-ryû duel: is the dual saber wielding a common thing in the franchise?

PS: too bad the next Asuno boy is not blue-haired... ^^"
