"Core 3 Maiden, Part 2"

Well, Glemy FINALLY makes his move with Puru Two's assassination attempt on Haman. I really like seeing the Quebely in red & yellow and enjoyed all the action. Eventhough that action was spearheaded by Chara of all ppl. Tomino really likes his 3-way battles, as this series has decended into chaos.

Good episode, I liked it quite a bit~
And again, there are three sides who fight each other, but I'm glad that one of them is Glemy. I was waiting for him to take action~ I wonder how will this turn out~

Puru Two, Glemy and even Chara... In the hands of a more tallented writer, they could become such awesome villains! Tomino has the talent to make characters with good potential and throw them away. Even Haman, who was incredible in Zeta is becoming boring in ZZ. It's a shame.

Amazing episode!

I still can't believed Mineva hasn't said a word other than when Haman and her disguised themselves inside of Nahel Argama.

Beecha and Mondo finally doing some good work.

Damn Puru's laugh is scary as hell.

Lol when Roux and Elle were asking for help, when they heard Judau's name they said "the voice of God"

Those two are really a fan of Judau XD

As much as Judau hates being related to Haman. They really do have a connection. They keep bumping each other no matter where they go. I guess Haman's obsession with Judau is not so far off.

Damn i keep forgetting Puru 1 is already dead. Puru 2 seems to in conflict with herself. Shame they'll never be able to talk to each other once again.

I also notice Judau is much better in evading Qubeley funnel's better than Kamille. So where's Haman's own Qubeley?!?! The White one.

I really love the constant use of Zeta's music here.

Last 4 episodes left!! I really wonder who is going to die here.

Can't wait for the next episode!

Judeau's harem calling for him. Sucks to be Beecha and Glemy in this ep had they heard the two captive girls they're crushing on say Judau is a god. lol

Glemy strikes! He better has well prepared his coup d'État, we waited for so long.
I still can't understand Haman's thinking process about him, she promoted him to keep him under the spotlight, she knew who he was and suspected his actions but she just reacts to him like he was a regular subordinate !

Ple Two actions, her remorses and denial are interesting. Maybe Judau will reach her out. Oh wait... isn't she already dead? That was fast. -_- (not that I regret it)

Of course, Judau is the master of infiltration: no problem to enter the side/core (I'm lost), and it is as easy as entering in a mill for him to visit Haman/Mineva's manor. Glad he saved Mineva, it's not the poor girl's fault if she's being used.
What was this "voice of god" thing with Roux and Elle? Is even Roux interested into him? He is only fourteen, I know he grew up mentally but she's a 18 year old young woman o_O

It was fun to see an episode where the mecha battle was mainly about two opponents pilots.

4/5


I see Asuka (Sôryu Langley, Eva) everytime Ple 2 pilots or exhibits her pilot suit. Am I imagining things ?


June 15, 2017
@Sapewloth For me, Haaman's "interest" in Judau made actually more sense than Roux's sudden infatuation. I still can't make sense of this one despite the fact I have been able to rationalize most of the other Tomino "crushes" since the year 0079.

July 3, 2020
@St0rmblade No reaction to the second death of a Ple?
Also, thanks for the Char comparison, couldn't think of nothing other than Asuka Soryu Langley...

Oh, right = I had totally forgotten about it, despite it being part of Glemy trying to revive the old ceremonious image of Zeon. ^^"
Also, I don't remember the escape pod scene. I only remember yet again an unacknowledged death by the damn "Gundam team". It's even a bit sadder to learn that you didn't notice her death either.

What was the "spoiler" ? Some Fukui fangasm? (not too bad then)

Is it just me, or is Mineva always accompanied by some clone of the blonde woman in a blue robe? I'm pretty sure she died at least twice in Zeta, so it's pretty weird to see her again here. Also, how come Haman didn't already know about Puru 2 before? I mean, it's not like they infiltrated the Nahel Argama together, or anything...
Chara is horrible and needs to die Soon, pun fucking intended.

It seems like everyone in the show has some kind of a huge hard on for Judau, whether friend or foe. I thought it was pretty funny at first, but Tomino definitely pushed the veneration way too far in my opinion. We've come to a point where all the people around Judau use him as measure of how great a person/pilot/newtype can be and see him as a savior or smth, even though he's just a 14 year old boy who can make mistakes like everyone else.

It's really annoying.

I do not think Roux has a thing for Judau. She and Elle shout "the voice of god" when he frees them just because they're happy to be saved from such a desperate situation. They could have remained there for who knows how long, or even die crushed by the collapsing building. I think the scene is just intended as a little comic relief.

Jesus thank you! Last episode was just alright, but this one was put the show back on pace. A little chaotic, but not over the top goofy. Puru 2 is one of the best!

Ple Two's red Qubeley was destroyed, but she escaped in a pod. Could she be turned good?

Ple Two's Zeon suit made her look like Char. She only needed to add a mask. Chara's "royal guards" had hilarious mobile suits with lances :D

------------

@Rei_III well, if we're talking about her piloting suit, then she totally looks like Asuka. The one for more official things, that basically looks like an officer's uniform, reminds me of Char.

I don't think that Ple-Two died. The cannon destroyed Qubeley, but it was pretty clear that the pilot escaped in the red sphere (=escape pod/cockpit) If this detail was forgotten and Ple Two never returned in the show, then it's funny.

P.S. Hahaha I just looked into the gundam wiki on Ple to see some artwork and accidentally spoiled myself about a certain character's fate hahaha. Never look in the wiki before completing the full show. Never. Not serious in this case (I expected it to happen), but anyway. I always promise myself not to do that but I just can't stop.

As for Ple Two, I would've noticed her death if it wasn't so ambiguous - I really pay attention to those red and round escape pods :p

I agree that this episode and the last were quality content. I was on edge for the majority of this episode. Chara and Puru 2 fighting was intense, looks like Lance and Nee literally have lances on their mobile suits, that's pretty dope.

Those two characters got crushed and killed by the falling rubble, I honestly don't even remember their names if we got them, I just remember seeing them around Haman. Also just wanna say Puru 2's qubeley custom looks so dope. I have always been a fan of the qubeley but I think the red looks extra awesome.

Looks like Chara is going to face off against Glemy and his forces in the next episode.

Finally some better plot and writing. Of course nothing too good, this is double zeta for Christ's sake, but at least the plot is finally getting interesting again. Hopefully the last 4 episodes can deliver decently.

Cool action episode. Glemy now rebels huh? Interesting. Puru 2 is also becoming more interesting with her doubts. It's the second time she dodges a very strong beam cannon (this time she escaped with the little cabin like Yazan did, right?)

Haman's officials died like that, I thought at first the one with the gray hair would have had a better role but heh. Chara's companions and the mobile suits with the lances are pretty cool.

Judau at the ending: I know Puru 2 isn't a bad person. Too bad Puru just died because of her...and he didn't care in the slightest at the time... well she's still a cool character, and lol at her evil laugh...

We know Elle has a thing for Judau (implied several times), while Roux seems not that interested (it seemed like that a little at the beginning of the series though...)
