Mecha done right.

Sunrise continues to be based with this based series. The character interaction in this series is one of its most captivating aspects and it never fails to make it interesting. Hell, even Fumitan the Background Girl is interesting.

Please continue to be based IBO

Great Episode!
Kudelia is now a sensei!
Orga is really cool! & Mikazuki is expecting a lot of things from Orga that makes Orga a bit hard for him also.
Teiwaz what can we expect from them? or the question is what is comparable to Teiwaz?
5/5.

Good episode, however hopefully they start expanding on the macro conflict and hopefully the characters grow out of their cliches and become more mature characters. Orga seems like Kamina from TTGL and its good to see Mika start growing into a more complex character instead of a edgy shounen protagonist.

I like how they showed how much different these kids worlds are compared to normal people. Kids not even in there teens talking and laughing about getting another surgery that could kill them and how cool it is.

Fumitan is a bit.. suspicious.

Although the episode showed no fight, for me remains enjoyable. The narrative has tried to give the pulse of the situation and to better explain the events in the past, so at least one is clear what actually happened and what will happen. Also it gives us something that until now was not clear, the bond interpersonally between Orga and Mikazuki, great. Also known an improvement in the quality of designs, something that makes me very happy, not bad even the CG. The character of Fumitan, hiding something, I'm curious. The promo in closing, it is very tempting, I do not wait to gusarmi the next episode. For now this anime, along with OPM and other TV series, it remains one of the best shows of this fall season in 2015 outstanding.

"Every time I turn around, his eyes are there. Mika is amazing. He's strong, cool, and has courage. He mastered a mobile suit in battle and now he reads and writes.
And Mika's eyes ask me.
'Orga, what are we doing next? What should I do next? What exciting thing are you going to show me next?'
I can't betray those eyes. In his eyes, I must always be the boldest, and have to be the coolest Orga Itsuka." - Orga Itsuka 2015

Like some others have predicted, I suspect Mika's relationship with Kudelia will push him to broaden his horizons and to see his bromance with Orga in a different light. Which will most likely lead the two to drift apart eventually, or even become straight up enemies, who knows.
I'm very satisfied with the consistent quality of the show so far.

Olga and Mikazuki are really endearing. The set up is promising, can't wait to see what the next episode will bring.

Fumitan is really skilled. I'm hoping they don't surprise us and reveal that she's a spy, against them, etc.

I wouldn't mind the spy route though if she's working to help them rather than against them. There have been several stories wherein there is a spy disguised as a governor/governess and they worked to help the protagonists rather than work against them.

Ahaha I didn't think Fumitan would actually be her real name (thought it was a nickname for Fumi or something). She seems suspicious (that stare!) but I sincerely hope it was just a red herring because so far she and Kudelia are the best female characters (I just love that she looks like a Victorian governess but she has some technical abilities on the ship too) and I don't want to see her betray Tekkadan.

I like Kudelia more and more each episode. Really loved seeing her teaching the kids and Mikazuki, and seeing her learn about them. Mika, too-- his and Orga's relationship is really sweet, how they trust each other. His dream of owning a farm kind of made me tear up a little, seeing that he has his own dreams for his life. Orga death flags everywhere though ;_;

As I see it now, chances for death:

Orga >95%
Bishounen fuckboi 70%
Atra 50%
Mika 40%
Kudelia <10%


Orga is definitely going to die. I don't think Mika will; I think he will end up a farmer like he wants to be. I guess he could die at the end. The others are spot on.

I liked the teaching stuff. It was a good episode.

Gonna be surprised if Fumitan doesn't end up betraying them at some point.

Kinda agree with Kudelia about the fact kids that young have implants being messed up. Miki wanting to read books about vegetables is weirdly wholesome tho.

A slow episode that seeks to explain the current situation and display the high stakes a little more clearly. Not an amazing episode to watch, but definitely keeps me interested in the anime, and the end drops a silly but effective cliffhanger, making you realize it wasn't a bad episode, and actually connects right into the next one seamlessly.

kudelia teaching mika and the kids how to read and write was so cute and so sad at the same time.
it really shows how different is the life of a child soldier/kid from mars who only has to think about survival.
