Holy. Shit. Epic stuff. Shame it took so long for the show to get all dramatic and stuff.

Ideon is growing to be quite the god tier robot. Splitting a planet in half is no problem to this beast.

Man, I really grew to like Gije. That chair is a death trap.

Gije? Damn! Just when I had really started to like Gije's character, he dies. Well, I'm glad that he at least got his wish to see the true power of Ide. Sheryl is probably going to be a basket case now.

Ideon split a planet in half? Wow! I don't think I'd want to be responsible for something with that kind of power. No wonder Bes and his crew tried to get rid of it.

Tomino from what I've seen (which is only 3 mech shows from '79-'83 so it isn't much) almost only does romance for cheap emotional contrast before killing someone off and it's so god damn predictable. I guess Sheryl and Lin really were sisters. Huh.

He does it like that for like most of his shows, Gundam in general being the most obvious one.

A great episode overall between far better backgrounds than before, good scenery/direction, drawings looking better than usual, and even noticeably better animations ....

Sheryl's case becomes clearer as well: it's not Rin's death as much as the overall pressure of the situation she's stucked in that affected her.

But how am I supposed to make sense of Gije's death?! (without considering the need to spare money by firing actors)

5/5

The ship's radar traces funny things: Char Aznable, Kai Shiden, Frau Bow, Mirai Yashima, Sayla Mass.

this neck breaking faster pace is a lot better than the super slow parts of the first half of the show. damn first lin and now gije. so it looks like you can understand the manifestation of the ide once you are near death

excellent episode
rip gije, he was a decent person towards the end, I always thought Kasha will bite the dust before him. Sheryl lost her sister and her lover.
Also, behold this beautiful angel sleeping

What an absolute blast. The Ideon is so fucking powerful. Gije's death was very sad, just like Lin's. You can say he deserved it for all his past actions but still, Sheryl definitely loved him towards the end.

Wait how did Gije die lol ? I'm not sure if I really missing something or not here. Tomino straight up killing off the members one by one each episode so far. Gije is the most developed character in the show by far so that's a good thing.

Just straight Frieza'd that planet!

Goodbye, Gije, gone way too soon. I'm expecting Sheryl to steal a ship and go kamikaze soon.
