Are there really going to be no "corrections" made throughout the entire series? Bright is going way too soft. Does he just miss Mirai and his children too much?

I hope Haman is as awesome as ever! Looking forward to seeing some real villains. :)

Yay Elpeo Puru finally makes her appearance! I know its Ple, but in the Dynasty Warriors 2 game they named her Puru so I'm used to calling her that. xD

I see Haman in the preview I hope that means more Mashymre

wait...what?
Now I'm left wondering is you meant you missed Bright actually being a captain and not this Bright that doesn't even correct the kids anymore.

Guh, me too. What a charming motherfucker.
I wouldn't even want him doing anything.
Even having him just sitting there in background doing nothing would be good enough for me.

At least we still have Haman.

Even a three year old could steal a Gundam from Argama xD

Oh and Bright did another capture-worthy face in the end. Priceless

Wow one of the best episodes for sure!

Damn Bright just couldn't let go of Emily XD

Lol i already stated this many times, but damn Judau really has a sister complex! Nothing wrong with it, but he's concentrating too much on Reina :P

Of course, this Chara girl is still crazy as ever.

Lol big boob monster!

Wow Qubeley! Damn i really thought Haman would show up out of nowhere like this, but it seems it's different pilot.

I also remember, Kamille only fought Haman just by bits, it's mostly Char's Hyaku Shiki who took own Haman 1 on 1.

I have to wonder if Kamille would have defeated Haman on 1 v 1.

Judau seems to struggling a bit, he probably hasn't activated his Newtype powers yet.

Glad Argama has a new weapon now!!

Man why does the Zeta and Mk II struggling out there! I know Elle and Roux are not yet that experienced compared to Kamille and Fa, but it's disappointing to see even Zeta struggling.

Finally a threat! I hope the pilot is just as menacing as Haman :)

Can't wait for the next episode!

Makes no fucking sense why they would not lock up chara being an enemy soldier

It's getting interesting now with the quebely reappearing , new pilot, and judeau going strait to enemy to rescue his sister

Why was a war prisonner even allowed to move freely around the Argama to begin with?

Stupidity aside, I'm curious to see who this mysterious enemy pilot is. Let's hope she lives up to the hype.

Damn Bright! Wake up!

A Zeon unknown Newtype piloting a Qubeley-like MS with bits?! Of course, it is a girl. Did the Axis steal the cyberNT researches from the Titans?
The Argama owning an anti-colony cannon? That is as scary as Judau sees it. The audience might get mad but I understand his fear. Seeing such firepower miniaturized to this point (it's portable on a ship!) makes me wonder how the humorous atmosphere will be maintained.

It's getting serious! Despite how the debutantes handle their Gundam compared to the ÆUG losses, Emma and Camille.

2.5/5

I can't wait to visit Axis after the glimpses we had in 0083 and Zeta.

I'm sorry to say that it will never happen, even in the more serious épisodes.

@St0rmblade No idea why this picture is used as the cover here, it's just one of the BluRay packages promotional arts (among others).

This episode.. what a total cluster fuck.. until the end. Judau's reaction after seeing the explosion was believable. Everything else was just God awful.

About damn time an enemy soldier spotted that big liability that ZZ has (the docking part), nonetheless the show needs to have a death (not an unknown soldier) to have a balance between the Hanna-Barbera funny stuff so that I can take the element of danger of all characters more serious…

Uh oh, it's the Qubeley! Kamille could hold his own against one, but Judau's Newtype powers haven't been realized yet, so he's not quite ready.

And now, Judau is off to Axis by himself. What will he get himself into this time?

Whoa was that really Haman?? I couldn't tell for sure (the blue tint made it hard for me to tell)... maybe this is the point where things take a turn for the darker? Don't let me down yet, Chara Soon!!

Can’t wait until Haman Karn becomes a bigger part of this, she was one of my favorites from Zeta.

The animation is looking better this episode too. Judau sneaking into Axis by himself is not smart, but he really wants to save his sister. I’m excited to see when this show starts getting darker and less comedic. On to the next episode..

I still had to laugh at Chara's get up xD Judaus face after the door had opened was great too haha.

And wow, the new competent enemy definitely caught me off guard, looking forward to see more of her.

Judau got more worried about his sister and I would react the same way after seeing such a big ass laser in action.

Nobody comments on our main character choking out the meganekko? At least Jem & the Holograms gave him a taste of that medicine later in the episode...

Did they really translate Elle's phrase about Chara as "Boobzilla"? Nice subs we got there. She also pronounced her full name for the first time in the show.

Judau's impulse to save his sister appears during the least convenient moments for that. The new enemy came out of nowhere. She looks like the girl from the cover art tho.

Yo, they blew up a whole fucking colony, considering nobody reacted other than Judau, I'm assuming it was unpopulated but I'm curious how the show is going to last another 30 episodes if the Argama has firepower like that already

I must say i love the bitchig between Elle and Roux, they really don't like each other huh?

While I miss Mashmymire, as much of a clown as he was, at least he was funny, Chara is just an annoying crazy bitch lol

The pilots were scared of the effect of the new cannon huh? Maybe they understand now that its not a childs game, even though the series does everything to make it so

Chara's a fun character to have around. She's kind of insane, but it makes her an interesting presence.

I'm kind of bothered by the sillification of Axis tho. Axis was probably the biggest menace in Zeta, and they kept coming out on top in every interaction, even against the main cast. It's possible Judau and crew are just running into Axis' biggest idiots all in a row, but overall it is kind of turning them into a joke. I imagine once Haman comes back tho this show will get real. It definitely builds hype to have kept her hidden so far.

Also, I like the direction the show is taking right now! We've been refitted with new firepower, but are lacking in numbers, and we're planning to head for the big bad, Axis, right away. It feels super promising plot-wise, because it probably won't succeed. It feels like exciting stuff is on the horizon, and the cast keeps growing on me. The gundam feeling is returning. And now that Judau's run off, it's looking possible from the preview (which I think I'm gonna stop watching now that the show's getting good) that we'll get some kind of arc with him alone in Axis. Ple, who also shows up in the preview, seems like she'll be a big part of the rest of the show, just from episode thumbnails. Also, does Haman live in a castle now?? When and why did they build a castle in axis???
