| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- This is weird. Most people are watching the subs, but I'm watching the dub and all the episodes are numbered strangely.. But for the dub, episode 20's events happened in this episode. So Ramba Ral and Amuro meet. If I were a fellow Zeon soldier, I'd love to have a drink with this guy. |

| I hope he stays in jail till he rots... |
| And Amuro cries again... He is one of the stupidest main character who I've ever come across with. I want my Char~ |
 |
| Proper order! Amuro deserves everything he gets. Grow a pair of balls and deal with the cards you've been given. *Walks away in disgust* Where the hell is Char... I miss him so. |
| I liked the battle. Twas fun. Insane doing a barrel roll in a ship in atmosphere though. xD |
| Another episode without Char. |
 |
| Amuro is annoying, he is in jail and now he cries. |
 |
| Well, despite my bashing of Amuro during the last episode.....I really liked this one. I guess Amuro just got too cocky and thought that he was beyond reproach and all of this was a shock to him. I suppose he sees defeating Ramba Ral as a way of proving himself. |

Cowabunga said: Another episode without Char. I think Ramba Ral is a fine adversary for now. Char will surely return someday! I liked the little face off between Ral and Amuro, both actually seeing each other's faces. And Ral actually rapelling onto the Gundam just to finish his speech, badass haha |
| Is it bad that I laughed when Mirai inverted the ship and all the orphan kids got concussions? But at least Bright-san had his seat belt on. LOL |
| Ramba Ral was epic! Escaping from his exploding unit by rappeling using Gundam and while finishing his speech. Not many enemies even try to escape their exploding MS, but he did it in style. I think this guy is bigger badass than Char. Oh Amuro, you are currently best Gundam pilot because you have most experience of it. Only Fraw Bow has been only other pilot to pilot it and she did pretty well. I would not be surprised if she would be as good pilot as Amuro if given more experience. |

| Amuro deserves all the time in jail they give him. What a fucking dumb asshole. Char should return soon. |
| Another ace episode :D Oh man why can't Amuro grow up so fast :( Even Kira Yamato wasn't a cry baby like he was. And no Char as usual :( When can we see him again O___O Can't wait for more episodes!!! |
| I actually like Amuro, maybe I'm dumb. He is a bit of a brat, but I mean, a lot of teenagers are. I can't wait for Char to come back. Seems like the next episode is going to be intense based on the preview. Ramba Ral is cool. |

| Amuro got all excited when Ryu came to look for him... lmao Fraw Bow, how stupid can you be? She (while stupidly in uniform) carelessly shouts Amuro's name after she's captured, blowing his cover. Then after they get to leave she asks "what's wrong?" ... not even a shred of awareness of the situation. Yay Sunrise! |
  |
| I miss Char but Ramba Ral is a good opponent. Amuro really needs to grow up |
 |
| I'm glad they put him in the brig. Amuro is way too proud and selfish for his own good. I don't know how well Ryu would do, but I liked Sayla piloting the suit before. Amuro's just the most experienced Gundam pilot. Others could nearly nearly as well (if not just as well or better) given the experience. His standoff with the Gouf was pretty interesting given the earlier events in the episode. |
| Now I wanna see them how to fight with Gundam without Amuro. |
| Episode in which there is construct and even good action, this time in the story is the character of Mirai to shine above all because of his ability as a strategist, however our Amuro from again demonstrated its immaturity, which is reflected in his way of facing the problems and choices that carries in the fighting. The interesting question that arises from the clash between Ramba Ral and Amuro, is to figure out which one is better on the battlefield and how much is due to the merits of their own robots. |
 |
| Good luck winning without Amuro. |
 |
| Oh boy that was intense and what an ending again! Amuro sure still is a kid :/ |
 |
| not only did that dumb slut get amuro caught but she also lead the zeons straight to the white base. good going fucker!! |

| Yes Amuro is a total idiot, but the crew members really are a bunch of dicks to him |
| That was a really solid mobile suit duel, and shows what really sets this anime apart. Gundam received some serious damage this episode and barely came out on top. I also loved how the lack of resources influenced many of the tactical decisions the pilots on both side made. Amuro Ray Kill Count: 1 Gouf kill this episode 19 kills total |
| Both sides are wrong (Amuro and the White Base Crew), but that's because they're both taking roles they weren't supposed to in the first place. |
Hekselka said: It's hardly fair that the people on white base criticise Amuro to hell and back but when he didn't want to pilot the gundam some episodes back they told him he had to. That's what I thought too. Overall a pretty solid episode. The fight with the Gouf is sure gonna earn Amuro some brownie points in the eyes of that Zeon female officer, given Ramba knows who he is now. |
| The scene in the bar was pretty tense and the fights were great too. Damn Amuro won't calm down till he gets Ramba,his worlds left a big impact. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Glad to see Amuro's finally back to white base and one question are the old people and kids still on the white base or what? The blue Gundam's weapon's sick too because of how original it is! A metal rope that electrifies what it touches! |

Hekselka said: This.It's hardly fair that the people on white base criticise Amuro to hell and back but when he didn't want to pilot the gundam some episodes back they told him he had to. Also, he's a teenaged kid experiencing the traumas of war first-hand. The show has made it VERY clear over the course of many episodes that he is struggling mentally from everything that has happened so far. I can't believe people in this thread are commenting about how he's acting arrogant and bratty, that's incredibly reductive. |
| amuro is boring zZzzZZzZ |
| Why, you say... Don't you get it? If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change. |
| Wow, the tavern scene kicked so much ass. Hamon and Rambal Ral gained many points in my book after that. Fraw Bow was also great in how she interacted with Amuro this time. |
 |
| Yeah, the tavern scene was great. Another good episode. Amuro may be locked up, but I doubt it'll be long before they are begging him to pilot the Gundam again. |

| Ramba Ral is the man! One of the cool things about being pilots is the fact that you do not know what your enemy looks like. It makes the face-to-face hold all the more weight, and it also opens up the possibility of accidentally or purposely running into the enemy ignorant to them. The tavern scene showed how tense that dynamic can be! Specifically, there were many different ideas going around. The first is that of warring factions not holding any ill-will towards each other outside of the battlefield. The issue isn't with Amuro, they go so far to offer him a meal. The issue is with their cause. When it was revealed that he was a federation soldier, it almost appeared to continue this line of thought. 'We're not enemies right now, but we will be soon so good luck.' Almost however, because Ramba showed that he can have an air of love to him but keep his eye on the prize. Tactfully tricking them with a facade of mercy and tailing them to reap greater rewards. I'll just say it left a huge impression for the man, numerous sides of his character, where his duty starts and his kindness stops, and generally just having a scene as tense as that rules. As Amuro was surrounded by his enemies without their direct knowledge of him it reminded me of when he was hiding under the bed sheets when he visited his mom. Following that, having made Amuro and Ramba see each other face to face, their rivalry has become personal. Their battle involved some of the coolest tricks like the shield jump, the giant robot samurai cut, and the grapple to escape the exploding mobile suit. And ultimately it has given Amuro another Char, someone to battle and prove himself against. Something very much needed after his skills and his place on the crew have been put into question. I can't help but see the duel between him and Ramba as Amuro missing the point though. He is an excellent pilot, but because he is rash and overconfident, it leads to putting everybody in danger, proving that he can win in another fight shouldn't alleviate the issue. That said, it could still play into it in a beneficial way depending on how things go. I would also like to say that I do actually like Fraw Bow and Kai. Fraw may be overly emotional or jealous, but the fact that she will both reprimand and defend Amuro from the others makes me feel like she genuinely wants the best for him. Like Amuro, she simply has some uncontrollable emotions. As for Kai, the reason I have come to really like him is that despite having a loud mouth and a pessimistic outlook, he has guts. When it is his job, he puts his life on the line! It's a simple contrast between his outward and inward demeanor but it makes for a likable character. |
| This episode caused me to dislike the White Base crew more than before, almost everyone. Amuro came back and rescued them and they lock him lol. Besides that, Mirai destroying one of the Zakus using the White Bases’s engines was kinda cool! Ramba Ral and Hamon are really cool as person, too bad that Ramba's mobile suit was destroyed but at least he can still fight even after that. |
| 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. |
| The development of Ramba Ral was good. He looks a lot like an old boss/co-worker I had who was a military veteran and one of the meanest people I have ever met, but Ramba Ral is a decent person fighting for a bad side. It's sad that he had to meet Amuro and Frau in this situation, but he is a soldier at heart. What would he be like during peace? |
| I can’t believe Ryu said that shit. “Why do you think I went to find you? It was because we needed Gundam, not you.” What a prick thing to say to somebody who has fought alongside you and saved you numerous times. |
