Mister Bushido cracks me up. Tieria's joke made me happy. I wish Soma, Sergei, Kati, and everyone else who thinks A-LAWS is beyond help would join Celestial Being. Ya rite. Sad episode. :( |

Now finally saji can grow up and actually turn out to help one side or the other, other than just plain failing... Great ep, but now I really wish it was already next week.. (anyone have a time machine?) |

Bakayaro said: Ali showing up, despite the fact we've known it for a while pisses me off. It makes Lockon's sacrifice in S1 seem so... pointless. Yeah! If he's gonna survive, I was hoping for at least a missing limb, a missing eye, or even a scar on his face, Anything! (like how Graham aka Mr. Bushido presumably got scars on his face) But he seems perfectly fine DX I never liked Saji. He was a wimp, being pushed around by Louise and her mom like that. But I can understand where his anger towards Setsuna and reluctance to fight came from; he is a civilian after all. But after seeing what he did (and probably more damage closer up seeing from the preview), I hope he opens his eyes and grows a spine and does something useful instead of mope around and whine about how he's not getting involved. Because tough, you're partly to blame for this, so you gotta take responsibility kid. Marina was giving off Lacus vibes, playing with orphan children.... >_> And submarine Ptolomais is like Archangel now... Lol, Tieria made a "joke", love Alle's comment of "what happened the past 4 years" XD. I also love Alle's comment to A-LAWs (hey we get the official spelling now) about how they're not even pulling the trigger and thus not shouldering the responsibility. I sense Kati and Soma may desert and switch sides, or at least defy orders. Good to know they have a conscience. and Where is Patrick?! I swore I saw him at the end of ep 25.. maybe the mood is too serious right now for Team Patrick XD Aww... Soma wants to be adopted by Sergei (scared me for a minute when she said proposal >_< ). Though I think this might be a sign that one of them is deathflagged... DX I thought at first Mr. Bushido not wanting to fight is 'cause Setsuna isn't there, but I think it's 'cause CB were rescuing people, and he honours that or something. Lyle... okay, I think he gained a little more respect from me after this. Did his "unforgivable" remind anyone else of Neil's "unforgivable" speech from ep 8? I think he might actually have found a good reason to fight now. Whereas before, he was probably fighting to help Kataron, I think he'll fight to destroy A-LAWs now. As for Kataron, Klaus wanted to help CB, so now that they're base is destroyed, he might just join CB. I agree that not all Kataron members would join, since they believe CB is to blame, but maybe Klaus and Shirin would join. Or they might just start over, build another base etc. Or help Marina. They were standing together in the opening. Innovators have strange names.... Ribbons, Revive Revival, Divine, Bring, Regene.. if you string them together, you might get a sentence XD One minus for this ep: I didn't hear Haro!! He didn't have any lines at all! =( |

KrylonBlue said: Fai said: Nevermind the fact that Hating-Saji is the newest cool thing in town There are people who have disliked saji since the beginning of season 1. of course the events of this episode obviously didn't help his character. Ya and their reasons for hating him where stupid has hell back then too. OMG OMG I hate Saji and Louise because they have screen time omg omg! lol. This episode was pretty good. At least Saji understands a bit about whats going on now. Not everyone is as rational as he thinks they are. Soma was stupid for thinking the A-Laws had any morals at all. I think the originals from the first season that apposed CB are all noticing how the A-Laws follow no code of ethics or morals when facing opponents. Should be interesting to see if they appose their own side and help CB finish off Veda and the Androids. |

Saji is a selfish little bitch. they treated him very nicely and after all he knew they let him go and he causes many deaths by only worrying about himself. the odds seem stacked against Celestial Being this time, Kataron is almost no help and with A LAWS and the innovators, it doesn't look good. the public needs to know how A LAWS works, and I'm guessing people won't be happy. Graham should of done something, he always cared about people not just some stupid rivalry with a gundam. |

Great ep. They don't rush the plot and everything progresses as it should. I wonder what'll become of Saji now. "There is a road in the hearts of all of us, hidden and seldom traveled, which leads to an unknown, secret place." |

whoa don't hate the guy for trying to make a difference. blame the inside man. he was the one who totally annihilated cataron. saji has a part of it but he is not fully to blame in this matter. Modified by Frito, 11-03-08, 12:58 AM |

I've had enough of Sunrise trying to introduce this Macross element into Emo Seed and Emo Seed Destiny: Razor Blades Counterattack. It was pitiful, corny and one of the reasons why these two were the worst installments in Gundam history. Long story short, excessive singing doesn't suit Gundam series :F "There is a road in the hearts of all of us, hidden and seldom traveled, which leads to an unknown, secret place." |

Was Tieria really joking? He said that he was after Sumeragi entered, leaving Allelujah deeply confused. It could be that he showed his real thoughts were just like what he would say back then for a minute to Allelujah, and then reverted back to his cover. However, I can't see any reason why he would do this. Contrary to everyone else, I think this has made me hate Saji less. Now that he understands how it feels to be the cause of mass-destruction, I'm hoping he'll finally grow a spine and become a better character. It's getter tiring to hate him so much, seriously, and being a central stock character just makes things awkward. It's about time he started to change. Yay for Papa bear~ (Sergei) But yes. Massacre makes this a bad episode in terms of ... well, when was a massacre a good thing during war? Well. SOMEone's got his Ahead controlstick shoved somewhere up his neither regions. So arrogant >_< I miss the un-Masked man T_T Modified by Cyrius, 11-03-08, 2:08 AM |

re-watched the episode again. and i have found that a-laws are a bunch of totalitarian knobs. who deny the middle east access to solar energy. they simply want the rich to get richer and leave the middle eastern countries to keep using oil as its main resource. no wonder why cataron is rebelling. after watching saji's dialogue, it got him some sympathy from me as he; like the others will now have a reason to fight. sad that this happened to him though. the inside job was just ridiculous. they should've gotten thicker doors. |

Prince charming is back... Its time for the herald~ Prince Ali! Charming is he! Ali Al-Sarches... Stronger than four Gundam Meisters, definitely~ He faced those GN-equipped hordes And Exia of Seven Swords Who sent those goons to their lords? Why, Prince Ali~! Prince Ali! Mighty is he! Ali Al-Sarches... Give him a gun[dam], watch the blood run, beautifully~ There is no one cooler than he Who can blow up children with glee And kill that Lockon easily That's Prince Ali~! Also, didn't Patrick die at the end of season 1...? It looked like the whole torso of his GN-X was blown off...wouldn't be surprised if he makes a return though. I would love to hear Marina sing. Even if I didn't like Seed/Destiny, I still listen to its music all the time...and if anything is to be learned from Macross F, good vocals do wonders for creating that atmosphere of 'epic mech battles'. ...sadly, I doubt Gundam 00 will have anything like this, a different kind of thing than Seed or Macross. |

It looked like the whole torso of his GN-X was blown off...wouldn't be surprised if he makes a return though. It makes me mad that Lockon's huuuge cannon didn't seem to do any damage to Ali's body, while Ali's one puny shot caused the GN arms to explode =( ... well okay, Ali was inside a Gundam and Lockon was floating in space while already injured. But still... I was hoping for a missing limb, which was replaced by robotic parts or something XD I could've sworn I saw Patrick at the end of ep 25 though..... Where is he?! Did he go to some secluded place to train himself to be worthy for Kati? Well, his role is pretty much filled with that Lindt guy and Mr. Bushido XD so if he does come back, I hope he doesn't fail anymore XD ----- A-LAWs is kinda boring as the villains. I don't like how it's so clear-cut who's the bad guys and who's the good guys. While A-LAWs have the old characters who doubt their actions, most of the new A-LAWs people are ugly, fat, and boring, and you know they're just gonna become cannon fodder. And their leader Katagiri is boring, has no personality whatsoever. Only Andrei is slightly interesting, but he hasn't done much yet. I liked the fact that in season 1, there was no "bad guy" vs "good guy"; each faction has their own reasons and justifications that the viewer can sympathize. A-LAWs are just supposed to be bad, and you're supposed to hate them. I don't think they're the main baddies, but still pretty boring as villains. |

Ali is baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack! And yes, it makes me slightly angry that he seems to be uninjured. -.- But yeah, I foresee Sergei being killed off by A-LAWS, and Soma joining CB or something of the sort. And we all know that Saji is going to join CB now that he screwed up big time. And no Haro makes WNF ANGRY. >:O 5/5 Because Ali is back. |
