The amount of idiots here is unbelievable. You guys are completely missing the point of this whole Anime. Just because it revolves around a mecha theme doesn't mean there's going to be action every second of every episode. That theme merely serves as a back drop. The story itself is far more complex and granted there's only 12 episodes i highly hope they renew the show for a second season as the story itself is very interesting. The characters are amazing aswell and cannot wait to see how they all unfold, especially Ledo and how he integrates to a world totally different to what he's used to.

So if somebody could tell me why saving the entire pathetic settlement from killing, raping, pillaging pirates isn't enough for repair costs...?
I guess once they're out of danger, no more begging for help and back to business.

Not much developed. It felt like a filler.

Sometimes I wonder if people here know what a filler actually is...

Interesting a slight flashback some well his whole world is changing, all what he lived for is now totally difference, he sure must be confused.

Either way a pretty good episode, lets see what's next!

Finally figured out what this series reminds me of. There's a series of YA sci-fi novels by the author Beth Revis called Across the Universe. The main character is a human who's come out of hibernation and found themselves in a world where humans live completely differently from how humans lived in the main character's time and place. Despite the vast differences in culture, the main character eventually befriends the first person they meet in this new world. Main character in that one is even called Amy, like the female lead in Gargantia. Male lead's names are similar too - Elder? Ledo? I mean... beyond that there are a lot of differences, but the thought just occurred to me.

Anyway. I've enjoyed the action so far, but I enjoyed this episode too. I appreciate that they're trying to flesh out the world these characters live in. The scene where they were collecting rainwater was a nice touch.

I'm really enjoying this, and I've also just found out there's going to be a second season. Good vibes all around. Bring on the next episode.

That flashback although very brief revealed a lot. Ledo must feel very awkward in this society than the one that he was in. Them feels. Very nice episode.

It was meh. I really wonder how old the kid, Bebel is, because he sure doesn't think like a kid does, and it slightly annoys me, a little kid who knows it all.

the beginning was pretty boring, but the end of the episode was precious. That memory of the flute and flashback gave me some feels.

Okay I'm starting to see why people like this show now. The world building and music are great and I like the idea of a foreigner learning about how Earth works. Looking forward to more.

Also...His Japanese reminds me of Chaika's LOL

This is an amazing series so far, exactly my type of show.

But I am kind of afraid that it's going to turn out bad, because the rating is kinda low here. I mean so far, this series is MILES better than that piece of crap Aldnoah. Incredible visuals, nice music and most importantly, a story that explores different societies, just like Shinsekai yori.

Well what else are you going to do if you are physically inept... If he was stupid and simplistic, I think Ledo would hate him.

So im guessing what we saw was ether ledo as a kid or that was ledos little brother. So its ether that ledo was taken away or ledos brother was put to death for being sick. The world ledo comes from sounds awful. If your not facing giant death plants your living in a cold world.

Loved this episode, lots of great character interaction and I loved how in the way Ledo was in the beginning of the episode and how irritated everyone seems to be with him a lot of the time. Having lived abroad there are moments when your not "getting it" in terms of cultural expectation annoys the hell out of others but you rarely see that in a show.

The flute bit at the end was touching as hell and I'm really liking Amy and her brother. I think Ledo is a really imter sting main character and I'm curious to see where this go s.

I think this was my favorite episode so far, learned a lot about the world and backstory of the fleet. Also some development of ledo, character development is always good.
Now all i need is more wind in the sails of my ship.
Well that and maybe a bit of fanservice of that redhead mechanic.

We get a bit of backstory, but that's pretty much it. They stil treat him pretty unfair imo.
