Finally a good episode without Saji being a bitch. But i thought the last parts were very Star Wars, Not a bad thing i guess.



Also No Gundam 00 Next Week In till January 11.

I swear, Al is all of 5 inches away from being put on a bus.

And the fans have been playing around with the whole 00 Wars thing for a while (Darth Louise anyone?). This episode just took the cake.

fantastic battle scenes. very death star-esque sequence there ;-) it was good to see the celestial being crew finally get a pretty good win under their belts, after what seemed like loss after loss.

setsuna's double-0 raiser powers are pretty god-mode-esque, but i'm also starting to think that he's improving as a pilot. He did a pretty nice job against Healing Care.

i still don't know what to make of nena, but if she's willing to play ball with CB, i imagine there's going to be a showdown between her/saji/louise.

Anyway, a nice finish to the first half of the season. They've sort've turned the tables a bit, where CB's sort of looking like the world's heroes now. I'm looking forward to see how they wrap it up.

00 is starting to be like code geass' second season. The "smart" people are becoming dumber and to balance that out everyone else is also. I don't know whether its just mistranslation by gg subs or me just mishearing what they were saying, but seeing Sumeragi trying to act smart by forming common sense tactics and having Feldt and Mileina kiss her butt really got on my nerves. Of course a huge ass WMD like that is going to have limited firing range ( and I forgot what mileina said though). And it was a fail on Lindt's part for not covering the Space elevator's belt seeing how it would obviously be a weakness.

And it was nice how they're now calling bits/funnels by their original name, but those were some crappy bits. Why couldn't they just finish ripping stuff out of UC and give Cherudium, nu gundam's fin funnels seeing how they're trying to recreate Zeta gundam/CCA Amuro through Lockon. If they're already capable of creating 360 degree energy shields then they should be able to just create a funnel system that creates the pyramid shield through linking.

I see the show ending with graham getting uber piss and deciding to blow up the space elevator making all of the debris from it fall to earth and starting a nuclear winter just like Char's plan with Solomon and then have 00 raiser go trans am, producing a crap load of newtype particles like Nu gundam and miraculously push the falling parts into space and never get pulled into the Earth's orbit.

But seeing more Gadessa action made me happy. The innovator's suits so far are like better versions of the titan suits which makes me happy because I thought titans were too underrated.

This episode= Rebel Strike against the Death Star(Star Wars: New Hope)
Lyle Dylandy= Luke Skywalker
Tieria Erde=Wedge Antilles
Allelujah Haptism=Han Solo
Setsuna F. Seiei= Dunno
Arbor Lint= That guy that died when the Death Star blew up
The Innovator pilot= Darth Vader
Ptolemaios 2= Millenium Falcon
R2-D2=Haro

Episode reminded me of this fight.
Lyle had one shot and had to shoot a specific area.
Epic space battle.

the bits are not cherudim's secret weapon, geez he had them since the first episode. he just didn't know when and where to use it. besides im pretty sure they wouldn't have included the bits with the model kit if it was an uber secret weapon.

Yay! Nena saved the day! She was the one who send those data on the weak spot to CB. She furthermore helped her sweetheart in the last scene. xP
Nena now seems to betray Liu Mei behind her back, because Liu Mei mocked her last episode.

Great shot on the death star, Luke Lockon! ("I have only one chance!") Ah well, this episode was nice. I had a great time, but that enemy commander is too wimpy. Moreover anyone else who can't bear the high voice of Mileina any more?

Why didn't Setsuna use Trans-Am to destroy Healing Care before retreating? She is bound to be an annoyance in future episodes (her voice annoyed me already even this episode). Yes, yes, I know, I shouldn't ask that in a Gundam show ...

A 14 days break. Seems that next week is some kind of flashback special on season 1?

So if you combine Gundam and Star Wars you get this episode. It's a good episode with lots of action. I'm hoping things would become more interesting in the future.

And a 2-week break? I expect a lot out of the next episode.

lol they don't kill people off till they have served their purpose. it seems like everyone's motive keeps changing except for at least the main leads. i would imagine they had a backup weapon somewhere or an even bigger one. or maybe they never thought anyone would be strong enough to destroy it, even for CB

that's the plan! to perfectly synchronize an attack and utilizing trans-am to their fullest extent. its not the most strategic but it is the most precise by far.

Well it is there only ace in the hole. Lately their only tactics have been firing big beams, spam setsuna along with missiles everywhere and tran ams their way out of crap.

There are better tacticians and pilots out there, but they're technologically inferior. I'm expecting Billy to fix that though or at least give Graham another suit that could wail on the gundams again.

Delicious Missile Massacre = EPIC EPISODE.

Keikaku Doori much? or is it because that idiot from A-LAWS was just a complete moron when the mission handed to him isn't search-and-destroy? probably both but good thing he's gone for good (or is he? surprise me Sunrise xD).

time is running runs out before we see Tieria approve of the new Lockon, so I guess I should post this.

i guess A-Laws not too inferior than CB, yeah i know 00-raiser can crash GN-X so easily, but i think for other unit, A-Laws MS still hard for they manage to themselves.

Very good battle I guess ...

I will say that this episode is much better than the previous 2 or 3 episodes, but still can't match the standard from the previous season and the earlier episodes of this series.

I really hope something more emotional episodes later on, and the climax on the end. Sunrise still have some things to do that later on, so I guess this eps is good enough to end the half of the show.

This OP is just a regular JPop song... nothing more, nothing less....You can't say it's bad, but it's not good (that may change once synchronized with the animation) Certainly, it cannot match Ash like Snow or even Daybreak's Bell....

Like what wakka said, if the new OP is garbage, then what the hell is some of the other crap that I've heard?

Personally I think the new OP sounds alright, and it might even grow on you when its synced with animation. Though I love the current ED, and I'd rather not see it go. :(

All in all, a good episode. Action, action, action. Can't complain, though it did remind me of Star Wars in a way.

lol nena totally back stabbed that bitch Wang Liu Mei! Lets home she continues to help CB. Wang Liu Mei gave a smirk when it looked like CB's ship was destroyed. I wonder if her intentions have changed.

The bits where a surprising add-on for Lock on. I wasn't expecting that in this series. It's pretty cool though. I'm happy they didn't make them super powerful either. The bits are still easily taken out by a few beam shots.

Too bad nothing will beat Ash Like Snow as an OP.

Memento Mori = Death Star, y/y? Obviously Sumeragi had previously seen Star Wars.
Overall, a good episode for all the cockblock we've received recently. It was also nice to see Hilling piloting, but where was Divine?

And I've been hoping for some full-on, one-on-one Gundam fights, we haven't had one of those in a while. Well, since last season.
