Oh Emma why??

The Haro wasn't that annoying... I didn't see the original Gundam, I saw the movies, was that scene when Amuro kicked the haro in the movies? I don't remember it, of course I couldn't remember something if I didn't saw it xD

Char outfit for this episode is amazingly classy, rocking the indoor shades.

..Lol, Haro's back. Why did Amuro have to capitalize on those things? I guess every show needs a questionably adorable mascot.

Haro was kinda annoying in the original, but he was nowhere near annoying as the three kids. Heck, I even started liking him a little bit, so I'm glad he's back. Still, it's weird that Kamille picked him up. For no apparent reason. I suppose it's a Newtype kind of thing.

Another ace episode!!

Seems Jerid is hell bent on getting his revenge for Lila, but couldn't do it in the end.

Char looking stylish in that outfit!! Seems there are still people that know him as Char!!!

He also has a pic of Sayla when they were kids!! I hope she appears soon as well!!

That Haro!!! Maybe it was Amuro's original one?? What the hell is doing on this side of space!?!

I can't wait for the next episode!!

I think the mass-produced Haro theory is a good one. It would explain how Amuro got rich.

Kamille was nearly killed in this episode. Amuro was already experienced when his newtype skills were realized, so it's interesting to see an inexperienced newtype fight. Still, if he doesn't plan on being a solider, what exactly does he plan to do? He's already made himself an enemy of the Federation.

Speaking of which, those AEUG supporters are quite bold (perhaps stupid) to want to attack the Federation Headquarters. Even for someone like Char, I can't imagine a single ship like the Argama managing that.

Hmm. Gryps is the group Bright is working with, correct?

This is growing interesting.

Gryps (formerly called Green Noa, before the titans made it their HQ) is the colony Kamille lived on.

Bright is still with the Federation.

A lot of the dialogue in this show makes no sense to me. What was the point with the whole "Amuro this, Amuro that" dialogue at the first few minutes of the episode? I know it is interesting to mention that you've met a legend like him, but it hardly seemed in any way relevant to the scene. Kamille saying that the girl "has met" Char was interesting, but that was literally the last sentence of the conversation.

The fight scene was really good. Thus far, I found all the fight scenes of Zeta highly confusing, so I'm glad to see a nice and clear 1vs1 fight on the moon. It still felt somewhat throw-away...

The prospect of Haro returning is a good one for me. It'll be something to spice the show up a bit. Seeing Haro "saving" Kamille was pretty cool. On a related note, I was happy to see a bit of "Char's old life" seeping back in. At some points, I was starting to wonder if he was even still the same person. Would be great if Sayla would appear in-person in this show at some point :)

I'll put the bitchslap counter on pause until a new one happens.

Haro returns! I like the little guy, so happy to see him back. This episode felt a little more inconsequential after the last one, and Kamille is all pretending to be so cool that killing people doesn't bug him. Yet at the same time he demands everyone care about his suffering and pain and give him endless space to do as he pleases.

Perhaps the scariest part of the episode is when Kamille declared "I won't die!". I believe him, 42 more episodes of emo angst.

The way Emma comes to talk about Amuro o_O I can't understand the logic behind it. At least, Camille's statement was intriguing: did he "read" Quattro's other alias? I thought Emma was aware of it, se`ms not.

Some Zeon survivors know about Char! And finally! The Axis Zeon begin to move! (good reason to endure more episodes) Some people among the ÆUG are really... no better than Zeon during the 1YW (this Wong Lee).
And the more we hear from Casval, the more he seems willing to perpetuate the Zeonism. (zut -_-, I hoped he would have left his father's package behind him) I'm sure he could let it go if he and Artesia were reunited (but she's probably under house arrest so...)

The little battle was interesting because of Jer-? but the one battle per episode thing is really annoying.

3/5

I am waiting for them to free Amuro from the Federation's watch and recruit him as soon as they land in America. If they could lost Kamille at the same time, perfect. If not, well... despite his super ESPs, with Amuro (light powers + experience + maturity) at his sides, he will soon appears obsolete. :D

@DazeFire What do you mean by Jerid "becoming someone like Char"?

May 30, 2020
@St0rmblade It's english for "friends of female sex". I don't remember it being specified as lovers/in love in the audio.
The 50/50 is the way Tomino does things, it's extremely annoying (and often relies on stupid reasons or no reason at all to trigger the skirmishes) but either you get used to it or you should avoid any Tomino creation from now on.

Glad I'm not the only one who felt the dialogues were alien. Be it in terms of logic (the way subjects come along) or sentences.

There is a anime without a mascot? Impossible, and here Haro makes a return: that nostalgia. Seriously, this time the clash was far more compelling given that Kamille was about to leave the pens. Directed promoted, even the choreography of the armed confrontation, was great. Drawings and animations, good. Lieutenant Four, is really Casval, I look forward to seeing her sister Sayla.

This episode had impressive fights and there was less melodrama as compared to previous episodes. It looks like things have settled down to a point, so I hope these changes are more permanent and the story starts progressing to something worthwhile.

I saw the Haro thing as taking a memento (the one thing that saved his life) like any real soldier would do when having a lucky moment in war...

Wait, was it canonically established that Emma had a girlfriend? I love that lol.

I also noted that the Titan Lieutenant Commander always talks about Blex doing this or that. Does he know him? Blex seems more important than the actual captain of Argama.

Lol, that Haro scene. Finally this robot ball is useful for once. But how did Kacricon figure out the whereabouts of Emma and Kamille? He didn't even use the hidden MS.

We also seem to be introduced to a new faction, "Axis". If that's a remnant of Zeon than I applaud Tomino again for throwing the "Zeon are space Nazis, *literally*" thing in my face.

By the way this show seems to have 1 obligatory MS battle in the second half of each episode, and that's...not very entertaining. Better stop that. The dialogues are strange too. What's the point of having Kamille say "you probably met Char on this ship!" only to make him deny that statement a second later? I'm really puzzled. Writing seems to be not the strongest part of Zeta. What is strong though is animation, I like how they pay attention to drawing hair in zero G, it's actually pretty.

P.S. This episode started exactly like episode 5 with some absolutely random cut showing Jupyter (?). Wha...

I'm not very interested in Jerid subplot to avenge Lila's death if you ask me. I like how Quattro is trying to do something against the Titans and I wonder who's Haman Karn and Axis.

I'm enjoying this show a lot, but my one complaint is that it doesn't really introduce things well. It just brings up names and expects you to figure it out. For example, I don't recall Kacricon ever being introduced - he just kind of shows up. I had to look up who Jamaican was too.

That might be an 80s anime thing rather than an issue specific to this series, but since I haven't seen many series from the 80s, it's something that I have to attribute to this series for now.

Yeah, that's my main gripe with the show too. It's really hard to keep track of the names, because they're just randomly dropped like that and they expect us to just remember everything. In a way that feels natural, but it also makes it hard to keep up sometimes.

As for the episode itself - wasn't expecting Jired to get his fight with Kamille right the next episode. Surprised to see he's very capable. It looked like he would've won and killed Kamille if Char hadn't stopped him.

The Amuro stuff is intriguing. So he's inherited tons of money from his family, but apparantly he can't go off into space? Why? Isn't he allowed to?

The Haro appearance was neat too. Don't know why Kamille decided to take it with him, but maybe it'll make sense next episode.

Oh boy, Axis is back. Once again watching in chronological order pays off as Axis seems to come completely out of nowhere in Zeta. And just like the Titans black Gundams, Tomino named the base of the fascist remnants of old Zeon "Axis" for maximum subtelty.

Haman is often cited as one of UC Gundams best characters. As long as its not trying to get me to sympathize with her, im open to be just as wowed by her as many others were. After failing badly with Gato, im looking forward to see Zeta try.

Gonna relax with a nice Heaper from Patty Prince while i watch the next episode, seeing as McDaniels doesnt deliver in my area.
