Banshee was a fucking BEAST, that was amazing. This episode was definately the best so far.

And now for the long long wait until episode 6 next spring...

Worth the long wait. Banshee was awesome. Man...at the end there, it was kind of nice seeing that the Unicorn ran out of fuel. This episode was just damn awesome.
Now to begin the painful but worthwhile wait for the next ep.

Yeah, that was a nice touch. Don't think I ever remember a mobile suit running out of fuel in the UC timeline. It was a nice touch. I also liked all the small details throughout the episode. Just goes to show how high quality anime can be with enough time and budget.

Me neither. I always knew they used fuel but they never run out. This ep was pretty awesome. I love the new OSTs used, and they also used my favorites the battle, mag nug, and mobile suit woot! This is probably the greatest gundam series made. Glad they are going to make episode 7, but now we have to wait 6 months lol.


A year, actually. Ep 6 got delayed to spring 2013 with ep 7 an undisclosed amount of time after that.

Really good episode, everything just happened at exactly the right time - pacing on this episode was perfect.

SO GLAD RIDDHE GOT THAT HAHA FGT but well there goes the Banshee into Riddhe's hands.

Also, green psycho frame anyone?

Unicorn Banshee was amazing! I have a feeling that Riddhe will be piloting the Banshee in the next ep to kill Banagher.

Now I have to wait forever for ep 6. -_-;

nice episode so i'm guessing that although the blond dude keeps on saying that he hates gundam he's gonna pilot the black one and become banagher final enemy.
however i would like to know who were those two people that Banagher saw who gave him strength i think one might have been his dad but who was the other one.

Bloody amazing episode! That Banshee is Sex! 10/10

Ray makes a cameo appearance, and Bright makes the right choice! Gundams don't choose their Meisters by luck of course!

But Wow! Loved the smirk. Three words for the cliffhanger [The] [Red] [Comet]

And now I have to add Banshee to my Gunpla wishlist. I am definitely getting it with RX-0 and Sinanju!

Don't have any idea how long I have to wait for the next episode. But I am ready to wait! The longer they are making us wait the better they are getting at it!

Totally not related but, fans were talking about that smirk from Kotomine Kirei in the Fate Zero 2 thread. Well take this smirk from Akai Suisei no Shaa, and I say this is far too amazing. Dare do that in front of an entire command line of the enemies if you get it!

Hey, Kai and Irma appeared too.
Glad to see they changed it from the novel though, the way Marida was supposed to die was just too moronically cliché. Here's to hoping that at least one cyber newtype survives for once. Hopefully make that too if they change some more in the next episodes. Though I doubt Frontal will survive as well, we know how it's going to end after all.

Especially at the beginning right before the title was TERRIBLE. I tried so hard to not cringe or shudder.

And where the heck did Takuya and what's her face come from? Or have they been on the NA this whole time?

Talk about one twisted love triangle going on between Riddhe-Mineva-Banagher, I have a feeling that there will be Banagher vs. Riddhe going down in the final chapters.

I also cringed when the Delta Plus was crushed like a can... poor MS barely got to fight at all. I'm really digging the Feddie MS designs (Jesta and ReZEL in particular).

This is the only series that takes my breath away every episode. Rekindles my hope that not all anime is doomed to shallow plots and fanservice.

That was fucking Kai wasn't it? when I saw that scene I was sitting there going "...i...is.. is that fucking Kai?!" I missed that rat faced bastard.

Now if only we can get Sayla to show up.

The scene with Amuro and the NT-D mode turning green was so reminiscent of Char's Counter-attack, and when Full Frontal came flying in at the end... :D

Fucking hell.

Honestly, this is how they should have done Berserk, as a series of hour long OVA's or something. At least Gundam Unicorn is primarily hand-drawn, which is an enormous accomplishment.

Seriously, this is shaping up to be something special. I can't believe there are only two episodes to go.

Oh man they just have to leave Banshee to Riddhe, he's probably gonna pilot it later no matter how much he hates it.
You see there's no need to wonder where your god is,
Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy.

Kinda liked ep 4 more, to little real action with Banshee Suit.
And what the hell is with the green psycho field? It looks like the green light from the ending of the "Char's counterattack", that changed colony course.

I didnt watch this for like 3 months because each episode is so good i hate waiting. Now that i saw episode 5 easily the best episode now i have to wait a long time for episode 6.

The animation is fantastic im kind of glad its an OVA if it replaced Gundam Age the animation might not be this good.

if episode 6 fallows the novel many people will drop the show that is all people who read know what i'm referring to :| lets just say it a major reason of why i hate Riddhe...

"among monsters and humans, there are only two types.
Those who undergo suffering and spread it to others. And those who undergo suffering and avoid giving it to others." -Alice
“Beauty is no quality in things themselves: It exists merely in the mind which contemplates them; and each mind perceives a different beauty.” David Hume
“Evil is created when someone gives up on someone else. It appears when everyone gives up on someone as a lost cause and removes their path to salvation. Once they are cut off from everyone else, they become evil.” -Othinus

Gundam Banshee reminds me a lot of Gundam Mk. II. This was probably my least favourite of the 5 episodes so far, now I have to wait a while for episode 6 after watching the last 4 in a row. Damn.

This episode is actually pretty good! i hate that the fact Riddhe trying to taking Mineva away from Banagher >_> and that fool killed Loni smh

Riddhe deserves that beat down from Psycho Marida gundam hehehe fun while it last.

MinevaXBanagher scene was awesome! she just calmly falls in the sky and say "Catch me" holy shit! epic! xD

Banshee is ultimate sex! the transformation made my jaw drops.

I like the fact Banagher is two-sided from Earth Feds to Zeon lol just reminds me of Athrun from Gundam seed. :P
