| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- What's this? No episode 31 discussion?? Well, let's remedy that oversight, shall we? ^_^ Anyway, I enjoyed this episode - first space fight in quite a while, if I remember correctly. I love battles on more than one front, and how the separate battles intertwine and affect each other. Interesting development in the Char/Sayla arena as well.......it seemed that Char's Newtype abilities were shown for the first time(?). And I guess Sayla's going to become a risk in battle now, fearing that any mech she shoots down may be her beloved "nii-san" >_> And just how many more upgraded mobile suits is Char gonna pull out of his ass, anyway? |
 You've come a long way, baby. |
| um... let's see, first was the Zaku, then the Gouf, then the Dom, then the amphibious mobile suit used in the attack against Ireland, then the crazy spiky ones at Jaburo, and now the mobile armor. So that's six so far. >_< lol @ the womanizing American hot shot / jerk. One of my favorite anime archetypes XD |
 |
| Can't say that I like Sleggar, but I feel like his role in the series will become bigger. So Sayla hated wars more than anything. I wonder what made her join the Federation. |

| Bright is jealous, lol~ |
 |
| Another great episode! 5/5 |
| I'm liking this Sleggar guy. But everything about him is screaming that he is going to die in a blaze of glory. |

Sabinlerose said: I'm liking this Sleggar guy. But everything about him is screaming that he is going to die in a blaze of glory. Pretty much and he also seems to be obviously around to throw some tension between Bright and Mirai. |

| I love Bright's reaction when the Admiral mentions a fiance, hilarious haha This episode was really really good all the space action and Char being Char. |
| Have I mentioned that I love how Bright uses that phone to shout orders? Radioman has a headset, so why they didn't give one to Bright? That American is going to die, I guess. |
| Sleggar reminds me of Macross's Roy Focker so much. I bet Sleggar's been inspiration for Roy. |
 |
| Amuro's face when he fainted was kinda funny. Good thing he could keep it together and managed to win. That was awesome. Where the hell is Lalah¿ |
| Another amazing episode :D Lol Bright seems jealous that Mirai has an arranged husband waiting to be married. To be honest i didn't ike Sleggar at first since he's flirting with all the ladies. He even purposedly landed on the back of Mirai XD Though he definitely backs his skills up during battle. And yes he's basically a character waiting to be killed. I can definitely feel it! Char's tactics are soo bold yet very effective. Lol Amuro passing out, but i'm glad they mentioned on how if the speed accelerates in an instant, a person can passed out instantly. Glad Amuro was able to adapt quickly given the situation. Everyone is fighting pretty good, hope to see more Char soon!! Can't wait for the next episode!! |
| The blonde guy brought some good mood to the ship. |

I'm also not a fan of him. He's even more blunt than Kai. He acts like the leader, despite Bright being in charge, and he's also cocky and a huge womanizer. Basically, he seems like kind of a huge jerk. Amuro was pretty awesome in battle, hanging onto that Zeon ship and then firing when they thought he was unconcious. That part was pretty cool. Overall, though, a pretty average episode. |

| New guy was probably put aboard their ship because he has problems with authority. As long as he's not a spy, he should fit in quite well. |
  |
| The new guy is indeed way too cocky - I'm actually hoping that he'll get Brightslapped at some point. He definitely deserves it. I'm also not particularly fond of womanizers, so eh... I've been worried about Sayla's brotherissues being stretched out through the series for a while, and it's finally showing. We need some progression here - I don't want the two to dance around eachother indefinetaly. That'll get boring quick. I love how obvious it is that Mirai's noticing Sayla's behavior. "Tired," yeah, sure. |
  |
| Oh, wow. I didn't expect my questions about Sayla encountering Char on the battlefield to be answered so soon. I guess she's a bit of a liability when against him; she could have taken out the mobile armor on her own if she hadn't hesitated. She needs to be able to take down big threats without such a hesitation, or it could cost more lives than her own. As for Sleggar, I don't really like him, but I don't think he's much of a problem either: He seems a bit too arrogant to me, but it's not like he's actively detrimental to the crew. On another note, it'll be nice to see the White Base going on the offensive for a change. It seems like they're always defending against Zeon. |
| HOLY FUCK WHO IS THIS BIG BRO SLEGGAR DIGGING THE NIGGER ALREADY and suddenly, this show gets WAY better with Slegga mah nigga but we all know how this will end for him fuck it why do all the ALPHA MALES have to die |
| Lol Bright's jealousy can't be contained. And Sayla better get her head out of Char's before she gets someone killed. |
 |
| Episode nice not much for not spectacular visa fighting during the narrative, as to whether to re-take the pulse on what concerns the growth of the characters and relationships. The new character to be able to reflect on the chain of command, not bad. Too bad it lasted such a short the battle, the script was interesting. |
 |
| A very solid episode! Let's see what happens next. |
 |
| Good episode, not sure how i feel about the new guy though. |
| That new guy is an interesting addiction. He's capable, but pretty much is open about sexual harassment. Amuro Ray Kill Count: 1 Mobile Armor kill this episode 40 kills total |
| I don't like Slegger Law -.- |
| Little animation mistake during the space fight: the barrel of the Gundam's rifle was present before the Gundam rotated around to "catch up" with it. |
 |
| the new guy aint bad and he's bringing a lot to the crew but i feel like he's gonna be the next to die i can already feel it coming |
| "one step at a time" |
| I wonder how many episodes Sleggar will last xD |
 |
| It's kind of funny watching Sleggar wind everybody up, even if he is a jerk. lol |
| Introducing Sleggar makes me wonder why. The obvious answer is that the crew has gotten too chummy, we need more in-conflict, and to bring in a bit of an antagonistic force right after the family episode makes much sense. He's initially introduced after Mirai's arranged marriage was brought up, and he is uncomfortably flirtatious, perhaps to push Bright to action. Following that, he's also questioning Bright's authority and flirting with Sayla. Beyond this, he appears to be the oldest member on the crew yet not the superior, all of which comes together to reignite some conflict. Not to say that he's a bad guy, he creates conflict but could properly join the family with enough time. His interaction with the boys at the end felt nice. Following Sleggar, I feel like conflicts of interest were a notable part of this episode. Amuro has a personal rivalry with Char, Sayla is family with him, making both her and Char worry about hurting one another. In that way, Sleggar isn't the only initiator of conflict within the crew because the crew is becoming suspicious of Sayla. It all came together to feel somewhat uncomfortable in a good way. A small erosion of the sense of unity that has been forming. On a smaller note, Kai continues to throw paper airplanes, that wasn't a one-time thing. I'm sure there is some symbolism there, perhaps wanting to be free, otherwise it feels like an innocent gesture of fun. On the context of death in Gundam, although Ryu's felt lackluster for many, I do appreciate the fact that the toll of his death can still be felt. Anger over his treatment last episode, or the kids wondering if Sleggar will be as kind as Ryu. |
| The battle was very boring but Sleggar is a good addition to the crew. |
| All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath. |
| Good development with Mirai and Bright, Sayla, and Char. The Bigro was interesting, basically able to do all kinds of stuff while everyone was distracted but getting destroyed once everyone got their heads together. Sleggar is a gross guy, a commentary on other common soldier characters. |
| Dunno why, but I'm pretty hyped we're in space again! I'm digging space battles more I guess. I think it's honestly a stretch that the federation didn't use the opportunity to put more experienced soldiers onto the White Base. I know it was successful and they want to honor that, but it's still unlikely they want to keep it being full of greenhorns. At least Sleggar is on board now, but the dude is pretty annoying. Sayla not being able to shoot the enemy because it could be her brother is a bruh moment. She became pretty much useless in battle now. Char realizing that White Base is just a distraction is just another case of him being far too smart. But luckily it's too late now. |
| Like the new guy and the action in this episode was really good |
| Great balance of battle scenes and character interactions. We definitely know Sayla and Char care about each other, she said that he wants to get revenge on the Zabi family, but then why is he fighting for Zeon? I guess I'll find out. Will also have to see if White Base's missions are based on decoy from here on out or if this was just a one time thing. |
| pretty good battle this episode these siblings though man haah Char can't believe the truth hmm wonder how long it'll be before they are face to face again |
 |
| okay Char is one bad SOB getting pretty interested to see just how and with what result Sayla is gonna manage to wrangle him haha this big comedy relief guy is something else |
