| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Oh the wait. The wait was the worst *sigh* on to the episode which rocked. Marina nows who one of the Meisters is but i doubt she is gonna do anything with the info. Really nice plan they came up with making it almost impossible to capture Exia unless they make themselves feel bad. |
 |
| Yeah, good episode. They're indeed one step closer now. Next week's episode should be intense. |

| Oh man, loved the episode. I enjoyed the fight scenes and the plan Sumeragi cooked up. The thing that bothers me though is how Setsuna identity is discovered so easily by the UN guy and that other guy. |
 |
| This was an intense episode. So far I think this gundam series is the best that i've watched so far. I'd like to see a state side release of this. Does that reformest guy that was rescued remind anyone else of Osama Binladen? |

Does that reformest guy that was rescued remind anyone else of Osama Binladen? lol almost every older male looks like that in the middle east. But if you haven't already noticed this whole series has been based on the future wars to come in the middle east. As for the ep, I thought it was great. It was a bit sad that the UN guy kind of realized that Setsuna is apart of the war but I don't think he's fully realized that he's apart of CS yet. Marina and Setsuna really need to learn to just use first names rofl. "Setsuna F. Seiei is that really you" "Marina ismail!" She reminds me more and more of relina peacecraft xD. |

It is quite good isn't it?? Destiny got really intense in the middle so I wouldn't say it's the Best one so far.. but it's been pretty awesome =O |
| One of my favorite episodes for this series. I finally got a nice blend of fighting with Setsuna. I can't wait for the next episode, since it seems interesting. |

| I really enjoyed this ep. My mind wasn't wandering or anything, and I couldn't believe it was over at the end. It had a really good feel to it too, with Celestial Being returning him and the guys being unable to go after Exia. I also really liked the end, "However the civil conflict still continues" - makes it more realistic. I don't know how I feel about new pilots... I want to know more about the ones that we currently have! |

I want to know more about the ones that we currently have! I totally agree. The thought of putting new characters instead of having the current ones evolve is kinda bad as this show already has quite a few "active" characters compared to other shows. Time will tell i guess... |
Yumi said: btw what country is azadistan?? In episode 12, the Kingdom of Azadistan corresponds geographically with the modern day Iran. Setsuna was really cool in this episode esp his acting in front of Graham but i was wishing for a Exia vs Flag battle(even though i knew it wouldn't happen this episode) The Ninja was really wicked and Lockon was pretty awesome with his sniper shots |
 The Red Truth is the only truth in the world |
Yumi said: brilliant episode!! yeah marina ismail really reminds me of relena peacecraft.. she does seem a lot like Relena. anyways, I really liked this episode, probably the most enjoyable one so far. its certainly building up for more of these kind of stuff. |
    |
| well she should seem like relena right? after all this is pretty much a remake of the original gundam wing for a modern audience similar to how seed was a remake of mobile suit gundam. |
| Thought that was an awesome episode. Although it was intense, the somewhat of a plot device where Graham just "knows" things from his experience is a bit of a downer. I mean I can understand him being able to see through a local boy pretending to be innocent (e.g. see that he is holding a gun behind the back) but then he went and dropped hints about the Enact, which prompted Setsuna to figure out where to rescue the hostage, making it kind of obvious to Graham that he met a member of Celestial Being now considering how things went smoothly after he went and dropped those hints to some 'random local boy'. Setsuna's battle was waaay intense, but he really doesn't give much care to protecting his identity does he. Oh and that moment where Exia was walking towards the palace, I was also like on the edge of my seat (like the characters). Let's hope they can keep this quality up. |
| Wow setsuna had more lines in this episode than he did throughout the whole previous 12 episodes. i dont consider this plan smart becuase if this was real, no one would care if the gundam wasnt armed, plus does it really matter how much hate they generate for themselves once they get it, they can find out the secrets of the gundam and mass produce it and that seems like a pretty good bargain. |
      |
| not only does setsuna has more lines, he showed more expressions especially in the scene when he is trying to act innocent in front of graham |
 |
| Oh that was an awesome episode! Setsuna is my fave pilot. I'm so glad to see him have more lines. :P |
 |
| I really enjoyed this episode. Plus, it proved Lockon is badass with a manual sniper rifle as well! |

I mean its not like she's done anything productive so far XDXDXDXDFaust721 said: Oh man, loved the episode. I enjoyed the fight scenes and the plan Sumeragi cooked up. The thing that bothers me though is how Setsuna identity is discovered so easily by the UN guy and that other guy. Yeah, the identity crisis there is a little disturbing. Although it should be interesting to see how he uses it. Seriously, she's a horrible leader. Grahm on the other hand is much smarter, he made a really good move letting that info slip to Setsuna cause based on CB's actions later he may have been able to determine that Setsuna was indeed a Gundam pilot. And he knew that by letting that info slip he'd increase the chances of that Conservative leader being rescued. Grahm really is one of my favorite characters in this show and I'll enjoy seeing what he tries to do next. Now about the rest of the episode, I just loved it. That battle Setsuna had with Al-Saachez was very well done and I was thoroughly entertained, and it was nice seeing the rescue get carried out nicely; as well as seeing the tense delivery of the hostage. So with that over it looks like Azadastan (sp?) is back at square one. They've resolved the conflict, but their solar antennas were destroyed and civil unrest still remains. I guess we'll just have to see what the Princess does next to see what direction the country goes (maybe she'll actually do something productive). 5/5 |

zeth006 said: I don't know, if Grahm didn't suspect him of being the Gundam then why would he bother letting that info slip? Well I guess it doesn't matter that much whether he knows if Setsuna's a Gundam or not. I don't think there'd be much he could do with that info. As for Al-Saachez I definitely got the feeling that he knew exactly who Setsuna was, but once again I guess he won't do much with that info in the end. He may just use his experience with Setsuna in the past to help him out in the next battle with him.Faust721 said: Oh man, loved the episode. I enjoyed the fight scenes and the plan Sumeragi cooked up. The thing that bothers me though is how Setsuna identity is discovered so easily by the UN guy and that other guy. The (AEU pilot) never figures out who he is. The director probably wanted the audience to be aware as always that the AEU dude isn't your average dumb military Joe. He's a seasoned pilot who seems to have a lot of extra street smarts an a sharp eye to the details that matter most. His comment "nice eyes" only goes to show that he was able to see beyond Setsuna's fake outer exterior, thus triggering his suspicions. As for the mercenery dude. He's a similar case, but he obviously shares a past with Setsuna...though an ambiguous one on which we've all been able to make educated hypotheses. If you watch enough anime, you will come to easily recognize a common device, which is the belief that one can get to know another better by fighting him. I doubt the mercenery dude will actually use any info he has on Setsuna (if any) against him. More likely, the merc dude ends up dying, or just lives on, but in a different kind of life. |

|
| Its one of my favorite episodes. I sense a connection between the "events" that take place in that region of the world with what is actually happening in the Middle East. |
| Long's spinzaku style kick was epic xD |
| That Graham. Smart little bastard. |
| Wonderful episode. Thank Captain Falcon that this Gundam is mostly invincible. (Let's just hope that Shulk doesn't get near with the Monado) Graham sure likes to play. >:-D |
| Pretty good episode, I held my breath there for a bit. xD |
| pretty damned good series so far, in fact this is probably the best gundam series iv ever seen so far, |
| I dislike lelouch vi Britannia. im a shiki supporter my YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCR90F0rzcss4CsrAbkZXTkg/featured?view_as=subscriber Just past the 1500th Mark bitches I approve this video http://youtu.be/U_0CCLxibFk |
| Great ep- That was an awesome display of power by the Gundam, arriving weaponless and taking those shots like that. I get the feeling Marina and Setsuna will get to know each other better later on. |

| Ali Al-Saachez! Yeah! Good fight between him and Setsuna... It's always a good fight when Ali Al-Saachez is involved. |
  |
| Splendid episode! Graham is quite intelligent and has a sharp instinct, being able to tell Setsuna was a part of the war so easily. Overall, this was a brilliant move to help establish to the world that Celestial Being isn't a terrorist organization, but an organization existing to bring peace through whatever means necessary. |

| Arriving unarmed and delivering the kidnapped gentleman was great. Graham wanted to go after him so bad, but couldn't. Smart move. And holy shit, is Hong Long superhuman? And what is Tiara's problem? He needs to unlodge whatever's stuck up his ass. |
 |
| Very good episode, Tieria really needs to be punched in the mouth though. |
 |
| That red haired guy with the beard is super annoying, he comes across as another arrogant villian guy in anime. |
  |
| Heart attack much when Setsuna was discovered by Graham. Graham really has a good sense, realizing that Setsuna was behind the rock. More evidence that he's really at the top in terms of fighting. Hong Long is amazing. Why am I not surprised though? XD I also like how they kept it real after saving the religious leader. Although he and Marina both advocated for their citizens to end the civil war, it's not like it's really solve the civil unrest. It's unfortunate, but the citizens hold strong views that cannot be changed so easily. |
| Man we need more war drama to take place in middle east, so much potential... |
| Good episode. Setsuna is growing on me a lot. |
  |
| Hong Long a bit campy with those moves but it was still a pretty cool entrance. The more the plot goes on the more I'm convinced this is Gundam Wing done right. |
| Awesome, brilliant episode, probably one of my favorites for now. Even if i still don't love setsuna, this episode helps to understand and expand his character, great ending showing realistically that the conflict is still going even if the leaders only want peace. |
