Shino just pulled a fucking Lockon Stratos.


Man fuck that. At least Lockon hit part of what he was aiming for. Shino 100% missed they couldn't even have him at least hit the ship and do some damage.

Jesus, I really felt it when he missed. It wasn't a good moment for Tekkadan but I feel like this was one of the most impactful episodes.
Just need to find out how to quote this every time so I can dodge the stupid 30-character limit.

Bruh I can't deal with this episode. Shino's miss and the desperate suicide attack that followed hit me way too hard, man.

Looks like someone has a thing for Gundam Bael. I don't blame you though: that mobile suit looks outrageously good.

Well now they are fucked. the went full in to the ernemy and failed and now they are a sitting target. I just can't imagine what asspull they will need to get out of this. Normally their whole ship would be blown away in the next few minutes.

I guess the only thing that can save them and not seem too out of there is if Chocolate man has some secret weapon or plan something too and attacks with it and they find some space to retreat.
Which he better have because he seems to have really come unprepared for this battle until now. If he assumed that the other seven stars would just give him their troops like he said then he should have prepared something else. If the only thing he had was Tekkadan then it seems he really was basing his hopes on miracles.

Don't see how being meek justifies in turning a blind eye on someone who is willing to surrender...

As a character, it absolutely justifies it, not as a person. Not once have I praised her personality or role; only questioned why people want her dead because of such reasoning. It's localised bias and seems rather unwarranted for such a minor character.



Look, it is very simple and is ridiculous to debate it. Why people want her dead? Because she is on the opposing side and ruined the plans of the side they care.
Simple as that. Truly she is just doing what her position requires her to do but people aren't watching her story and aren't empathizing with her. They are emphasizing with her enemies.
The only thing is that the guy she follows is more of a scum than the guy Mika follows but other than that is that people just don't care about her and get annoyed when she stops the ones they care for.

I'm fucking pissed and bawling my eyes out right now. I knew it was going to happen BUT NOT LIKE THIS. WHAT THE FUCKING HELL. Yamagi didn't even get to confess to him and he just had to miss that last shot to the butterfly-eating bitch. FUCK. FUUUUUCK. FUCK THIS SHIT.


Why the hell are people talking about this confession bullshit?
What would that achieve other than making things very awkward since Shino wasn't gay.
Yamagi was actually kind of ridiculous clinking to him when he knew it was impossible. He would have been better trying to avoid him so he can forget him and move on.
The only reason the script writers went along with this bullshit is because they knew that they would never had to ever reach the awkward moment were Yamagi had to make a decision because at least one of them would die so why not go along with it until we kill one just for the sake of it.

Shino promised to go out for drinks with Yamagi (which to him, is seen as romantic) and it was confirmed that if he had lived, there would have been a relationship between them. He was basically confirmed bi and was open to the idea of dating another man. He knew Yamagi was in love with him and totally accepted it as we saw the following episode. The official artists have drawn art of them together and the VAs even went out for drinks together and fulfilled the promise their characters made. Yamagi wasn't ridiculous for continuing to be around Shino because they both cared about each other and were close, regardless.

In short, Shino KNEW YAMAGI WAS IN LOVE WITH HIM. He was told by Eugene but to confirm what he was told, he told Yamagi he would bring him out to meet girls and after seeing him upset by that proposal, realized Eugene was right and told him they would go out instead, just the two of them. Shino wouldn't be a dick and string him along for nothing.

Good romance subplot; I wish it had gotten more attention. It was actually very sad, and I like the pair of them together. A lot of the emotional stuff gets used in this one almost only when a character is about to die.

Tekkadan's plan was pretty weird, but I guess it was the only thing they could do. I don't really understand those railguns. Seems like they would be super inaccurate in space with all of these fast-moving mobile suits despite their power. I'd think there would be something stronger, but I guess there are no beams really and questionably effective missiles.

I wish that this show was more interesting when it's not a fight, and a little less frantic when it is.

Spontaneous gay ship just so they can kill off Shino. Nice.

It's been hinted at since episode 1  of IBO
Exactly that. Although we could pretty much foresee that, I hoped until the very end that Shino would survive. I'm heartbroken for Yamagi now :(

I can't believe Shino missed and died. I don't know how this is going to end.

Somebody kill the Arianrhod fleet and everyone in it, come on.

Knew it was gonna miss but I hoped with every fiber of my being that it'd somehow hit anyway. Someone like Shino deserved way better final moments than screaming in frustration and regret, RIP

when i saw the shot miss, i literally screamed unconsciously.
this was so intense that i feel the anxiety in me.
seeing shino die in that way after trying so hard is painful, i can't imagine how Yamagi will react now.

"You fired a single shot from an illegal weapon so we are now allowed to use this conveniently prepared battalion of illegal weapons we also have for some reason" is kinda ridiculous. Such a weak fig leaf doesn't even make it look like Rustal is pretending to follow the rules it just looks dumb. I think they should've either just had Rustal be a hypocrite willing to cheat outright or have used Flauros as an excuse since it basically has Dainsleifs built into it and could credibly be framed as "the enemies are actually using illegal weapons in combat" much better than some random planted traitor firing off exactly one shot from exactly one gun.
