| I feel like the romantic aspects of this series are a little forced, but everything else is great. |
Seraphix said: I feel like the romantic aspects of this series are a little forced, but everything else is great. Ya...that really kind of killed the episode for me. And when did Nina meet with the one armed guy? O.o Was I just not paying attention last episode? |
| I thought that was Kelly's GF (?) until he said Nina's name... Geez, Kou and Nina = unstable. Kou messes up for being lame/chicken/machine obsessed, Nina is a tsudere (?)...and it just fluctuates. At least, Kou can stay and remember that he's Unit 1's pilot. While I was watching the fight, I was thinking, "Geezus they just fixed the darn gundam! Kou's gonna trash it again." (lol) |
 |
| I didn't feel like this was a very good episode. It seemed very clumsily written. Like the antagonist woman, for example, seems like she's trying simply to ruin everyone. Throws her own dude in front of the mobile armor for no apparent reason, and why did she give that dude to pilot the mobile armor anyways when it was designed for one arm? Just to piss on a potential strong ally? There's no rhyme nor reason to her actions, it's like the writers said "well, she's the antagonist, right? Clearly that means her role is to antagonize everybody!" |

So i wasn't the only one thinking wtf when she said his name. I have a feeling that it may have became kind of strange because it might be some material that was cut off. |
| Great battle, but poor romance. Everything i wanted to say, you guys have already said, so, that's it :P |

I have a feeling that it may have became kind of strange because it might be some material that was cut off. That makes 4 of us, i was pretty dam sure she didn't meet him last episode xD God after watching these past two episodes i feel like this is turning into another Gundam ZZ where all logic was just thrown out the window. Also Nina deserves better than Kou, she even called him a coward which is true lol. |
 |
| Romance was ehh to me, it didn't really bug me, but it could've been a lot better. |
 |
| The romance, oh my god that was cringyworthy indeed. Yeah I don't really feel like continuing this. I'm surviving through this only because of the awesome action scenes for its time, and for the sake of completion. |
 |
| The romance is soooo bad. I like how even Kou didn't know how the heck Keith and Mora had time to develop feelings to go on a date. Nina is an idiot and such a whiner. "Oh, you never done this before? Coward!" parfaited said: I couldn't even focus on the battle because i'm just raging at these characters. This series is a chore, I can barely get through it. I'm struggling so much. This so much. It was even worse at the end where Kou was all "Why are we fighting?!". Uh, hello? What did you think would of happened when you helped him complete the mobile armor? He's just fly around in it? |
| yeah romance was iffy but i liked the actual plot of this episode |

Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |
| And he gets the chick! Nice! Loved the space battle between the Gundam and Mobile Armor. This series has some amazing fights. |
| That was a nice battle and I liked the Kou/Nina moment at the end. She was rather stupid to go into a middle of a battle to tell Kelly to stop what he's doing its a wonder she survived. xD |
"What has two arms, two legs, and is alive? Not your favorite character lol! xD" |
| Another amazing episode! It's pretty amazing how they managed to finish the Gelgoog Armor in just a few days! What the hell Keith and Mora together?!?! Kinda funny how he was just making fun of her and now they're together :O It was nice to see Kou and Nina's relationship good, but then it turned sour and was saved in the last minute. Not like i expect Kou to be good at these kind of things, but he should have just manned instead of waiting for things to turn bad. Wow Kelly is an important character, seem to have a relationship with Gato. I do agree that his character backstory was cut. I have a feeling he would have at last revealed that he knew Gato to Kou. To be honest, when i saw that liquor and golden hair with Gato talking in the screen. I thought it was Char!!!! Since at this time he was into hiding and waiting for the perfect moment to arise. The fight is amazing, but wanted more. Didn't knew Gundam Unit 1 could dismount itself like that. The hell didn't install a emergency escape pod? At least he killed that bastard who tried to pilot and took all the hard work he did with Kou. Though how did Nina knew Kelly!?!?! I think he could have been Nina's long lost brother. And wow i really REALLY though Nina died on that scene. It would have been even darker than Zeta, but i'm glad Nina survived. I really do believe this series would have been better if it were to take place after Double ZZ and before Char's Counterattack. I mean the mobile suits here seems to be more advanced than anything we've seen in Zeta nor ZZ. Finally Kou manned up!!! It would have been Kou without Nina!! Amazing stuff!! Slowly becoming one of my favorite UC Gundam eras ever. Keep it up!! Can't wait for the next episode!! |

Now this.. Gundam is pretty confusing sometimes :'D |
 |
| Yeah the romance isn't that great here.. that was an especially cheesy and predictable scene with Uraki confessing to Nina right after he finishes the battle and saves her. I wouldn't say it "kills" this anime necessarily though, I've seen worse. At least she wasn't immediately head over heals for Uraki , I think it took some convincing and prodding from her friends to realize her feelings. I can not count how many times Kou has been bailed out by his shippmates. This time his best bud probably saves him from being finished off after Kou had gotten trapped in that electric field. That was dumb as hell for Nina to go out into the middle of a battlefield in that little vehicle she and the damn thing was even destroyed and she still survived lol. I like how vehicles conveniently don't explode when there's plot armor involved. That mobile armor was pretty beastly. That was a nice move actually from Kou to deattach the top part of it when he was grabbed and then use the thrusters to laser sword teh One Armed guy. I thought it was interesting that Nina seemed to know the one armed guy, I really wonder what their relationship was. I guess there's still some time for it to be explained later, hopefully it will be. |
 |
| Nina knew Kelly? Since when? The action is still solid, but the rest has gotten silly since ep3. |
  |
| I think any man or boy (since that 's her taste) doesn't merit Nina. That would require a terrible karma and I don't see how someone could have been bad enough in his past life. Theoretically, even the Gundam RX78-2 was able to divide itself. Those robots have a Core Booster(fighter?) as part of them. It was also said for Uraki's mecha. That was a nice move in a generally good fight, even Keith did smthng. Kelly sadly happened to be a new Ramba (was pretty obvious after last eps), sacrificed for the sake of breaking the hero's illusion. After Burning and in a relative way Monsha, our boy has another "teacher" figure. Still, this nice Zeon lets a civilian woman behind him... that's harsher than what Ral does to Hamon. The fact he and Nina knew each other well, while he was close enough to Anavel Gato (video), encourages me to think Miss unstable engineer could know Gato too. (the most interesting thing in the eps for me) 3/5 Is the Stardust Operation related to some solar ray system? Wait, what?! When does it occur please? |

| Intense episode, especially loved that ending! Let's see what's next. |
 |
| Episode that I have to reject in part, with regard to the narrative in the final, got to that point, it needed more time to make more credible the feeling experienced by Uraki, against Nina. And while they make longer the clash between Uraki and Kelly. Everything else is as usual more than good. Interestingly, the twist during the clash. |
 |
| Now I understand why Nina prefers Gundams : they're beautiful big chunks of metal that will never display the astronomical amounts of stupidity reached by the main characters of this show. Mobile Forced Gundam Romance strikes again, this time featuring two autistic dumbasses who can't seem to get a clue. The battle was fine but the circumstances surrounding it were so ridiculous I couldn't bring myself to enjoy it one bit. Like others said before me, this show is becoming a chore to watch. |

| Was a pretty good episode and the Ed was kinda sweet but i swear to god the MC is such a moron! |
| good ep and all but wtf nina knowing Kelly and Gato..... please dont tell me Gato was the reason why shes the was she is and doesnt want to fall in love and such cause if so ... oooh god its about to get real annoying if certain things happens.... besides that as for me i love the romance in the gundam series when its there but god now that im thinking Gato is the person Nina was with in the past damn.... theres no other way it couldnt cause she knows Kelly and clearly talking about Gato and him and ect fuck Kou dont deserve this... if things goes the way im thinking hopefully not but we'll see... god i wish this had more eps tbh |

| "one step at a time" |
| God, even compared with 0079 the drama in this is hilariously stilted. |
| It's so funny when Kou acts all surprised to see Kelly attack them with Mobile Armour. Like what did he expect they were fixing it for? |
  |
| It was funny to see Keith and Mora together, I thought that their "date" in episode 1 was supposed to be a joke :D But that was cute. Actually please let's have Mora instead of Nina, she's more sane. Same for Keith tbh, he's a coward, but a good coward. Looks like there was a cameo of a certain character from another popular UC spin-off in this episode :P Kou's failed confession was cringe xD Nina really losed her nerve fast! Why did Nina react to Kelly's demand like she knew him? It's either a plothole or a potential story to develop. Val Varo was a little to easy to destroy, wasn't it? Also Cima acted strangely to give that mobile armor to another guy, it was designed for one arm, what's the problem of giving it to Kelly? Tbh the most tragic character in this show is Latuera. Really feel bad for her. Loving a soldier will always backfire. After the scene when the would-be Zeon pilot brings Kelly money and before the scene showing Nina alone in the office. The timestamp is 9:58, she's sitting in a park and reading a book. |

| I like the battle but the romance is terrible, forced and stupid. Nina nearly got herself killed. Nice Christina MacKenzie cameo. |
| All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath. |
| i think this serie is the weakest of the UC timeline for what i've watched for now |
