"Look at me."
-Tiffa

This was a pretty epic episode. We see a Newtype born in combat and get an impressive battle. You really learn to fear Newtypes everytime you see the Flash system in action. It's one thing to be surrounded by bits/funnels & have to deal with that. It's another thing to multiply your mobile suit forces into a platoon with just one capable Newtype pilot. I was really hoping to see Garod awaken in this episode. But he showed some ballsy moves in saving Tiffa.

There's no denying the Frost brothers' intentions at this point. Everything's going to come to a head at the Newtype Research Facility.

I can't understand one thing: If they wanted to kill all of this guys who had chance to become Newtypes, why didn't they do it earlier? They could just had shoot them. Maybe there is a secret plan behind it, I don't know. Well, looks like the next arc is going to be in the Newtype research facility :)

Looks like Garrod and Tiffa relationship will get better, after getting worse. Oh my God, I love them so much <3

So I guess the Frost Brothers want to eliminate newtypes for a reason. Maybe it has something to do with them being "F"s?

I loved the Garrod/Tiffa moment at the end I just had to screen cap it. Seeing how this is Gundam I sense this pairing is not going to end well. I think if I remember correctly the three romances that actually got happy endings were all from Gundam 00. I didn't count AGE since the women were just there as baby makers and there was not much development in any of the relationships.

well, there are more. kamille and fa, in ZZ. shiro and aina, in the 8th ms team. seabook and cecile, in the crossbone manga (and a bit already in the F91 anime.) uraki and nina, in 0083. and didn't uso and shakti ended together in Victory? in short, I tend to disagree, while the romance often ends a bit sad, it does not always end bad.

Really, another disposable pilot with special abilities, sigh! It's like they are just throwing the same plot at us four times in a row.

That last scene was so sweet.

Well technically yes but the Frost brothers are trying to kill all potential newtypes the federation has and its easier if they pretend theyre helping with the flash system research than to just downright assassinate all of them and make enemies out of the federation.

The Frost Brothers have a worse case of chronic backstabbing disorder than Char at this point. I was hoping older newtype guy would become a staple for an arc but he dies too quickly.

I'm gonna go against the flow here and say that I'm liking the Frost brothers. They're surely more rounded villains than the Titans from Z or the nonsensical shit Zechs pulled in Wing.

It hurts to know how many people didn't watch G Gundam. Seriously, it's one of the better series...

Garrod and Tiffa are the cutest thing in existence.
