| I loved how Char was introduced in the red Zaku as being a total badass, but almost instantly he got his ass smacked down by the Gundam! 4/5 |

on 
| Better than the first episode. Amuro really has a huge responsibility to pilot the Gundam and that tense moment with Brightwas quite well accomplished. And finally, Artesia/Sayla is reunited with her brother in person after many years. The kids driving the ship makes sense since most are injured. 4/5 |
| BANZAI NIPPON. Nippon is the Land of freedom. Nippon is the Land of Peace. Nippon is the Land of Justice and Prosperity. In Nippon, we trust. We love Nippon, we love Anime. Anime love us, Nippon love us. 日本 I believe in freedom of expression. |
| The trained military men die, and the White Base falls under the command of kids and those like Ryu with little training. I liked how the different characters were introduced. Char's dodging serious gunfire was kind of weird (though also the shooters are basically untrained). This was a great second episode though. |
| Clearly the federation is the underdog in this fight right from the beginning. I can see the appeal of this series and I can see how future gundam series were inspired. Though maybe starting here would have been a better introduction into gundam instead of gundam wing |
| It's said that every 1000 years one napalm becomes a super napalm. Some good stuff going on in this episode. Char being a reckless dude who just charges into the enemy base on his own while dodging everyone's shots, him kicking the gun out of the hand of a person who looked like she was standing 5 meters away... Ship repearing glue bubbles... Pretty entertaining. It's nice to see that the villain is pretty likable and skilled on his own right. Or rather he seems like the only skilled one so far. |
| Classic genius technician vs genius commander(Char is also kinda hot, please don't be another Gary Stu and show actual flaws). |
| I hate everyone equally |
| It's not even that slow compared to likes of Naruto/One Piece and Ashita no Joe, you people are even more spoiled than elitist like me and that says something. |
| I hate everyone equally |
| Great episode filled with action and suspense. Char seems pretty cool. |
| stuff man amuro vs char where amuro dad also char's sister surprise!! |
 Without change,we end up becoming the very person we hate. I was dead until the moment I met you. I was a powerless corpse pretending to be alive. Living without power, without the ability to change my course, was bound to lead me to a slow death. |
| it's pretty good paced considering the age of this anime, im liking it for now |
| ''Touch the darkness inside me'' |
| they really got the super upgrade on gundams, way better offense and defense. Char realizes they're super outclassed here. |
 |
| the military type command the heavy drama just keeps on comin that's the stuff boy those were some powerful grenade to blow clean holes in those huge airlock blast doors |
| I'm glad I saw Origin first, it gives a lot more context and stakes to Char's sister confronting him. |
