THE highlight of the episode, I laughed hard when Tieria said Veda, and then Setsuna adding Gundam was just... wow.

Great transition episode, I really wonder how they can manage to do such well-written and well-paced episodes where we can actually feel something about the characters (and they're pretty much developped even) now, that they couldn't in the first season or in the beginning of the second. It's like the general level of the series suddenly raised twelve episode ago, even the build up episode are better than important episodes of season one.

Next a Saji x Louise episode, one season ago, I would have been horrified by that idea, but now I'm pretty confident that Mizushima and co will do it well. And Wang Liu Mei's come back is seriously interesting for the plot, I hope this great character just becomes more evil than the innovators and simply kicks them out of the front stage wher they don't really belong (too emo to be the masters of the world ain't they?).

In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same.

Marina dies next episode. Setsuna x Nena x Gundam threesome.

The set up feels almost like the beginning of episode 24 back in season one, the calm before the storm, characters are going to go down like flies from this point on (a little early, but hey..).

the katharon interludes are getting really annoying/boring, Setsuna doesn't want Marrina anyway as we learned he only wants Gundam. So 1 Gundam Meister loves a super soldier girl, another loves an Innovator that seems to be a girl, while the other 2 are in love with a gundam and a computer hahaha.

I love how stupid Andrei is, I doubt he even tried to find out why his father was there. I still expect better from Billy and Graham. Regene plotting to overthrow Ribbons isn't surprising but it's nice. The small but interesting thing is Mannequin wasn't around.

Lol, I couldn't help but laugh at the scene before the credits. Everyone was calling out the names of someone important to them. Then all of the sudden.

Tiera "Veda"
and
Setsuna "Gundam"

That just totally reminded me of that Gundam 00 commercial. Where they were making fun of the characters.


haha, ditto. this cracked me up.

man, if those kids made the radio, i'm guessing good music did not survive into the 24th century.

whoa, anew and lyle. i know it's in the OP, but it happened so quickly.

marina dying would be the best part of the ep. although i doubt it happened.

i wonder if hallelujah will ever show. we haven't seen a peep ever since they hinted at him about 8 episodes ago.

i'm looking forward to next week. should be epic.

Set-up episodes, not my favorite, but they do some good. We finally get to see the Lockon x Anew relationship that's been hinted at for a while. I'll be curious to see if there are any changes to that bedroom scene in the DVD version. Definitely interested in seeing what Andrei will do if Louise gets seriously threatened out there, especially if Soma is going to be chasing him down. I'm beginning to wonder if Anew was just placed there to be a beacon for the Innovators so they can find CB easily, also nice to see that the Innovators might not all be behind Bad Amuro and his god complex.

Ending scene was nice and amusing, especially when Lockon told Anew that he loved her. I wouldn't say Veda is Tieria's lover...it was just on his mind. I can't say the same about Setsuna and his Gundam >_>


lol i know the ga-rei zero dvd has no censors at all =P so we get to see some 12 year old kagura nipples >.> and bloody shit

im thinking Anew is something like what you said just deeper
similar to Nia in Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann
placed there for a specific reason but given her own personality which causes complications when the her original loyalties call upon her aid

louise totally will see andrei's "sacrifice" as "omg my FRIEND died to save me at least i get to be with saji now ggkkthxbai"

lol i made myself a gif of those 31 seconds hahahaha
YES THE FLOWER OF LOVE HAS BLOSSOMED!!!! hahaha

Louise? Mannequin? Regene? WLM? I mean, from the start Mannequin was in A-LAWS to keep an eye on them as she didn't trust them. For now she's MIA, and in this show, that generally means alive which I actually meant to say something about in my previous post, but oh well.


Yeah true enough for Mannequin, I'm sure she'll play a crucial role in the next episodes, but until now she has just been following orders instead of really investigating on A-Laws.

Louise is just a puppet character like Stella in Seed Destiny, though that too will probably change. But for the moment I can't see her as a respectable figure on the A-Laws/Innovators side.

But Wang Liu Mei ? Damn, she's probably the character I hate the most since season 1, and that's probably what the producers want us to think. I'd rather go with Ribbons' plan than whatever agenda WLM has.

Tbh, I thought CB were the "bad guys" in season 1, so it really depends on the point of view and how the producers want to present the characters. ^^


i feel like mannequin is going to be like that lieutenant girl in Gundam Seed (Season 1) the person who ended up captaining the Dominion and whatever

Louise doesn't seem like a puppet character but more a foil something similar to a carrot on a stick for a horse (horse being saji, saji being 00raiser)

wang liu mei is just some spoiled brat who will probably get bitchslapped by her male servant (brother i think it was) and have reality dawn on her near the end where they both die together on the moonbase where veda is

Did Anew even know anything about it from the start? I think it's possible she was brainwashed before she was sent to work with CB.

Same opinions on Marina's case. We see no flash at the end, so it wouldn't be 100% she's dead.

For all we know, CB really will turn out to be the true antagonists. *shrug* We still have to see where the whole lost Aeolia/Innovators/CB line is going. I mean, we were finally thrown a bone with the whole "Everyone will become an Innovator" thing. Blah, I'm overthinking this.
I'm just waiting for A-Laws to frack up on something and have everyone go "whoops we killed the wrong dude". I'm pretty sure that 00 is going to end up like code geass where CB is going to become a messiah of some sort, but take the unorthodox way of getting things done and be viewed as the villain.

I'm pretty sure that Anew is still good until the later ep that is named after her and Lyle will probably realize that he is like his brother and go after the not anymore jail bait Feldt. And I also think that Anew is too hot for him lol

Sweet episode. I loved the music and the pacing.

Setsuna is just focused on the game, man. He isn't gonna try to get nasty with the 00. He's like a race car driver, you worry about hookin up after the race, not going into it. Hopefully his babe doesn't get wacked. Although I am sure someone took the bullet for her. That would really light a fire under CB, if the rest of Marina's friends all get taken prisoner.

I think its more along the lines of the bullet ricocheting off of her and killing everyone around her including the kid she's holding.

An interesting episode with lots of plot. Not much action though. I keep getting pissed off at Lyle and Anew. I mean, does Anew even know that she's an innovator? And are we the only ones who can see the change in the eyes? Like seriously... come on... Lyle was like holding her when it happened and looked straight into her eyes.

On another note, is Marie converted back into "Soma Peries" or is it just the stoic part of her personality coming back. Her voice seems to have reverted to Peries, at the least.

Setsuna robo fetish and Wang Liu Mei getting pwned were other good parts of the ep.

Finally, the bgm for this episode was quite different compared to the other episodes. Several new tracks with lyrics. I honestly thought the ED was going to be diff for the episode when that song played before the ED (I thought it was gonna merge right in). Guess I was wrong :P

ROFL Setsuna has moved up in my books after saying Gundam. I cracked up laughing because of how serious he looked when he said it.

Also looks like the good GN particles are indeed cell/DNA altering. Setsuna is a prime example of how they're slowing down the fake GN particle damage that was done to his arm.

Anew turned out to be an unknowing tool for the innovators. Lockon needs to say something before she get's them all killed unknowingly. Speaking of being oblivious, Anew reminds me of the girls from the new show on FOX called Dollhouse. They basically reprogram people into being assassins then wipe their brain when they're done and fill them new memories XD.

the bit where everyone was saying their important person (object in tiera's and setsuna's case) - corny and lol.

i'm glad saiji has resolved his emotions and way to go for soma pires (poor halle). i want lyle and anew to work (but doubt it would).

So i guess Setsuna masturbates with the image of a huge robot in his mind. This explains his reaction when a woman kissed him in season 1.

And lol at mamas boy. He killed his father and he still only thinks about his mommy. Grow up you retarded asshole. Saji is hardcore in frond of this guy.

Sorry but i prefer Marie over Soma. Bring Marie back. Soma is actually the most emo character if you think about it. At least Marie is honest with her self and just wants to be happy.

Marina turned in to a nice little housewife but i wonder. Is the number of all the children they were protecting just six?
