This just went completely into Evangelion territory. I'm surprised that no one in the thread has mentioned it yet. I mean, Sulleta's mom is literally a nice version of Gendo at this point. Might as well mention the Human Instrumentality Plan soon.

I didn't care much for the character that died and was tired of her tone/attitude so it was actually a relief that she passed away. I hope similar antagonists have more nuance and subtlety than she did.

In the end Suletta probably wakes up and has her own thoughts of whats right and wrong. Her tears shows that she's having her own feelings.

Probably Earth Federation vs Spacian in the later part.

Oh my fucking God. Congratulations to the theorists for guessing correctly, it's now confirmed, Aerial is indeed Eri.

Now I am curious whether Suletta is an actual daughter of Prospera or she's just a clone of Eri or some other fucked up shit. I am also curious whether Prospera has really become this cold hearted, she's doing it for Eri as she said, but is there something more behind her, behind that helmet. Like how did she even end up this way, there's gotta be more to it after the prologue, cause Elnora then wouldn't have turned her daughter into a Gundam.

Holy shit Sophie, props to her voice actor too, I could feel the pain from those screams. They all deserve better, like Goddamn they all need therapy after this. Earthians, Spacians, Terrorists, it don't matter, they need therapy.

They really gave us one last taste of the school life and the duels in the previous episode, knowing how they're gonna destroy us in this episode. Things definitely won't be the same from this point on.

Also, that ED scares me even more now, will Suletta turn into a Gundam too? Fuck no.

Well, can't wait for more pain. Miorine gonna come back and walk in to this.

They finally reveal, as many suspected, that Eri and Aerial are in fact one and the same. Paired with Sophie's death it is a great way to set the tone for the show going forward, I am hyped!

Wow the mom is using Suletta for her Project Zero, wtf. This guy Elan is STILL trying to cling on Suletta, omg just leave her alone already. The Open Campus duels are about to begin and everyone gets ready on their places. The CEO joins in as well to watch it. The battle is going until they get ambushed by the Earthians and everything turns into chaos. 

Someone almost got killed in the process, what even is going on. Nika out here trying to confess something but gets stopped by someone else. Meanwhile the CEO gets taken away by some people and Elan is like "I see", lol. The chaos goes on and on until they literally go into space and fight there as well. Suletta now even begins to question why her mom build Aerial. Now the real deal comes to light, Prospera had another daughter and she turned the daughter into a Gundam? what the hell. Her name is Erichi Samaya. What an reveal, wow. RIP Sophie. I love how they now put illustrations at the end of the episode.

Oooooh boi. The duel was ambushed by the plant Quetta terrorists! I blame it on Sophie!
It seems the stakes are even higher now. Death!
Also the biggest reveal for the show. Eri being Aerial the whole time! A human being a Gundam! Mind blown.
Now I'm questioning lady Prospera's true intentions and what her goal with quiet zero is. This whole thing is sus.
And who and what exactly is Suletta Mercury? Is she a clone? Is that why she wasn't affected by the Gundam's curse?

So many questions are running through my mind.

Annnnnnd.... Suletta needs a therapist, preferably not her mom.

That was great episode. Both Shaddiq and Suletta's mom's plans are going smoothly, and I'm not sure which is scarier. On the other hand, we also have El5n being an agent of chaose it seems.

Noooo, I liked Sophie, she was like a better Chuchu. Also we're really pushing the envelope of what a Gund-bit looks like huh? When from mini lasers to unmanned mini-gundams. Also RIP to the NPC but somebody needed to die to keep the gears of war going, even if he was just a student. Also I was half in on the Ariel being Eri only because the age and name contradiction, this was also supported by the anomaly that happened during the Pharact duel. Though I think anyone who was paying attention to the obvious details would've assembled the pieces together the true nature of Ariel.

From Casual Battle Royale into real Battle!!

wow the reveal!!
Ericht Samaya or Eri the girl from prologue episode that we all thought was Sulleta Mercury the whole time.

so that's why the data storm didn't affecting Sulleta Mercury at all and she didn't got the Gundam curse.

Finally they reveal the truth and its pretty obvious, they had been giving many hints from season 1. Poor Eri, I wonder if she was in life death situation so Prospera turned her to gundam to continue existing or Propera forced her for her revenge, then that's pure evil, she's even worse than Gendo. \(º □ º l|l)/

The mind turned to mecha reminded me of IBO Graze Ein, the pilot not being affected by drawback of using the mecha's full potential instead its the mind in the mech. ( ̄▽ ̄)ノ

The situation continues to escalate, Shaddiq is on the move. Terrorist attacks again. Nika in danger of getting executed. But where is best boi Guel, he's depressed right now based on the OP. ヽ(#`Д´)ノ

Shaddiq the real mvp, stopping this from being a boring school slice of life with harmless duels. He tried hard to end the school arc in the finale of season 1 but the school arc pull was too strong so he had to step back up to save us from mediocrity and give us a banger episode. Good job man.

I had guessed aERIal was correct but it's nice to see it confirmed. Quiet zero fixing to be instrumentality project 2.0.

Definetly the most Okouichi episode so far with all the escalation going on. It was somewhat entertaining since I enjoy these kinda trainwrecks, but it was still on the dissapointing side. Mostly because of the uninspired and quite frankly bad action scenes. Aerial is so overpowered that it sucks out any from of tension during these skirmishes. 

At least Elan 5 is fun. He is a massive shitlord, but he is here for the ride and having a good time.

Sluetta had such a punchable face this episode, I don't know why they are even bothering with these duels when Sluetta is going to win anyways no matter what happens, and Miorine's father's involvement with Gundam at this point seems even more stupid given how he wanted to eliminate Gundam n S1 and Miorine saved that ugly robot.

She was always an undercover operative for the Earthian terrorists. The company that is sponsoring her is a dummy company, and either Shaddiq found out about it, or he set it up himself, and he has been using that information to blackmail her into being a liason with the terrorist leader. It did result in the attack that threatened all their lives, if you want to consider that "betraying Earth House". Then again, she did save them all by flashing the call sign, and she tried to confess and testify against Shaddiq last episode.

Power. He wants to succeed as the CEO of Grassley. He also sees value in GUND-arm tech and does not want Grassley to be left behind

You are the GOAT mate.
I was asking because the context is not very clear all along the anime and Suletta’s reactions always catch me off guard because she is reacting as it was nothing when we are talking about terrorists, terror attack, betrayals, killing somebody, etc. 😅

Oh snap! I just thought about it... There's a lot of people saying that Quiet Zero is like Human Instrumentality Project from Evangelion, but I think that this is going to go back waaaaay before Evangelion and pay tribute to Evangelion's inspiration: Space Runaway Ideon from Yoshiyuki Tomino (Gundam creator).

Now that Happy Birthday song would make even more sense!

Hmm... Considering everything we saw in the prologue, the real question now is whether her clearly very loving mom turned Eri into Setsuna F Seiei Gundam simply as part of her plans, or because she had no choice after Eri unlocked Layer 33 and participated in the battle. Just remember her face when she saw Ericht's name on the screen...

Two more questions came to mind this morning...

One, would the timeline fit if Elnora was in the early stages of pregnancy during the prologue?

And two, considering that we now know that Ericht is Aerial, and that both Aerial and Quiet Zero are actively using data storms, is it possible that Miorine's mother also literally is Quiet Zero?

Why do you say 12th?

When the Earth girl plays fortune teller on season 1, she asks if Suletta has a sister and points to the stone that fell on number 12. I added it to the fact that Aerial have 11 Gund bits and the new ending shows multiple Sulettas

This make little sense considering that the bits were already functional on the LF-03 prototype before Ericht first touched it.

What we have now is:
-Belmeria talks about Prospera get revenge about something that happened 21 years ago
-Eri was 4 years old on prologue
-Suletta is 17y old and Miorine 16

If Belmeria are really talking about the prologue event, Eri needs to be 25yo, so a supposedly natural sister needs to be 24yo, on this line Prospera was not pregnant on prologue or Suletta is lying her age. If all information we have is true, Suletta "born" when Eri was 8yo, on the opening of ep 15 they changed the blue spectrum to Eri and for me she looks around this age

About Miorine's mother, it's hard to belive that she is the Quiet Zero but after the last episode i think she is the key of it, and somehow Prospera know about her researches with plants and Delling plans about whatever is this

Noted. Didn't remember the exact number, so had to make sure. (Oh, that's 21yo, not 24, though, but the small typo does little to change the result.) Oh, well, Gundam has enough of a history of clones, so that would not be too surprising either, although it does make one worry about what this could imply for Suletta, depending on the level of their cloning technology.

Well, time to wait for GJM's version of 15 now...

How are people in this series even tolerating a person with such a vexing voice and punchable face is still a mystery to me.

Good thing they confirmed those two weren't the same person, as that would've been a real displeasure to know that the kid from the prologue grew up to become this red-haired creature.
