| Finally, the refugees are off the ship! Also, Garma's lover is dead. What a sad way to go, but it was her choice, I suppose. Now, Char perhaps doesn't know that Zeon wants his head. I wonder what will happen. |
 |
| I didn't expect Garma to be such a young member of his family. His brothers are far older. Knowing that he was the youngest would have given his death more tragedy had we known beforehand. |
 |
| The girl's neck should have clearly snapped when she hit the ground head first. And the refugees have -100 IQ |
 |
| This episode opened the story up more, revealing more of the inner workings. I'm glad to see some more drama instead of just "Char is attacking!!" every episode. |
| At least the dumb refugees subplot is over....Honestly, they're annoying. Iceliana's death is sad but I wonder how she ended up on the ship when she was previously detained lol. |
| 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. |
| Zeon wants to hold a dictatorship over all of humanity as is stated in the dub. I found the two-sided conflict dynamic and engaging with the thrilling battle on Amuro's and Ryu's side; leaping onto the ships, and the Whitebase chaos with Char. Character wise, having a grief stricken woman die in front of Amuro may set the now more-confident Amuro back having faced the ramifications of their actions in such a visceral way. And Char shot refugees! I now realize that assuming it was on purpose was somewhat naive thanks to the thread, but it made for a strong moment. To depict the awful effects of war as Char drops civilians from afar and hardly comments on it, and to make Char more engaging. He's ruthless, able to drink with his friend before leading him into his death or to be depicted shooting civilians, and that makes him feel very unpredictable and capable of anything. For a small comment, I love the running gag of Bright stealing the messages they receive before Sayla can read them. It's cute and funny. Stuff like that helps make the crew feel alive. |
| Worth noting that when they were burying Icelina, Kai was the first one to start shoveling. Little things like that are making me like him more and more. |
| Well, shit. She was so young and pretty. |

| Well, that ended rather anti-climatic. I was kinda hoping Icelina would actually talk to Amuro and realize he's just a boy and not really at fault. Her just fainting and falling to her death was a bit... convenient. Though I guess she suffered heavy wounds after the crash and we just didn't really see it. Char just shooting civilians like that was pretty ruthless, lol. Not sure what he was even planning to do there on foot. And we finally get a glimpse into the Zabi family who will probably play a huge role in the next episodes. Curious about the new weapon and antagonist of next episode. |
| Okay the refugees are so irresponsible, I get it but they shouldn't have put everyone and themselves in danger. Also, seeing Garma's family and Icelina's grief really exemplifies that humans, pain and innocence are on both sides of war. Sure, they're trying to kill each other but both feel in the right. There are kids and those who just want to be in love and live their lives on both sides, most anime makes everything so black and white and I appreciate the humanization of everything in this show despite the characters still feeling a bit flat. |
| For a moment, I thought that Icelina was shot by Char. It was really annoying the refugees actions! |
| char just shooting at anything that moves is hilarious. |
damn she dead amuro exhausted expression lol also bright has had enough of the bs refugees. I hope we dont have any more refugees anymore  rare scene  |
 Without change,we end up becoming the very person we hate. I was dead until the moment I met you. I was a powerless corpse pretending to be alive. Living without power, without the ability to change my course, was bound to lead me to a slow death. |
| damn Zeon needs some wins here someday heh rip Char is so based for gunning those idiots down Lol |
