The Elan in today's episode isn't a clone made to pilot a Gundam, it's the original that his group's old ladies convinced to Honeypot Suletta.

That's why he won't engage permit at all.
He's not the original he's Elan 5, but yeah he's trying to survive

I am just consistently impressed by how much I enjoy this show. Maybe my expectations were a bit low since I have never really been into mecha anime, but this show really has it all: the animation/fight scenes are impressive, the music is great, and the story/world building are really compelling.

As for the big revelations that came from this episode, I absolutely love it. There were enough hints and context clues that I had been thinking something along these lines, but it still packs real emotional punch (and leaves a bunch of questions unanswered). To me, this really is the perfect twist: not so telegraphed/obvious that it fails to be a twist at all, while also not just coming completely out of left field without any hints whatsoever; this was very satisfying.

My favourite episode since the show started. Setsuna must be really jealous of Eri. I'm glad to finally get the show the prologue promised, but its sad they had to wait halfway through the serie for that.

I still find stupid the idea of a 17 years old kid becoming the CEO of a company because his dad died. Neither do I like the idea of a 17 year old outsmarting every adult like they were idiots (the idea of mercenaries trusting him seems so dumb to me). It would make so much sense and be more believable if they were a few years older. But we're stuck with it since the show had to happen in a school, so whatever.

Yeah, I'm not seeing Nika surviving this series.

I'm not even sure she survived this episode. I was expecting seeing Nika dead body while Suletta was doing her speech about saving her and protecting everyone.

I still haven't figure out why they fight.
from what context we got in S1, spacian corporations polluted the earth and took earth's resources to build their space habitats. They constantly make life on earth worse for their own benefit. The earthen terrorists want to destroy the corporations so that they leave earth alone or force them to pay to restore the earth to a better state.
I still think that's one of the weak point of the show, they still haven't clearly stated what the situation was. You can guess a good part from the previous season, but for me they should have taken 2 min somewhere to explain that clearly. Right now, we're in a situation where they could invent 4 or 5 new factions and they would make sense yet feels totally off.

That ending theme continues to be so goddamn good. Like the voice is clearly cracking, but it feels like the emotions just could not be contained perfectly within that voice, thus the imperfections remain. Like the stratchy sounds of a vinyl record or the glitchy visuals of a VHS. The singer is screaming, demanding to be heard from anyone. Especially when it's played towards the end when we find out the true nature of Aerial, and Suletta hardens her resolve to move forward. It's phenomenal, and gives me goosebumps.

Being able to control that many gundams is kinda cool. Wasn't expecting them to go on a full on rampage. The heck happened to not blowing cover. Guess there mission was accomplished.

Dang. Thought she used orphans or something for the GUND bits but holy cheeseballs... her own daughter?! Her big sister has been taking the brunt of the Gundam as Aerial so Suletta isn't effected. Sophie gave Suletta something to think about so I'm looking forward to when she starts questioning her mother's intentions.

You know. As much as I find this arc for Suletta good, I do hope she isn't so easily forgiven. They really seem to be pushing the idea of 'Oh ir was all the moms fault.' and glossing a little over the fact she MURDERED someone in front of Miorine. I get they're really trying to showcase the idea of 'killing or be killed' idea with Suletta, but it'd be a shame and poorwriting if they just have Miorine straight up forgive her later on, with the principal that it was the mom's fault.Which I get too, the mom is a big yikes. But with how last season ended, it'd be a bit poor taste if it just got forgiven like so. Wile I get they aren't communicating showcases a lot, but from how Miorine is speaking, it's as if she does want to forgive her, but idk man. Part of me feelings like the impact of the end of last season will get swept under the rug a little, just for the sake of it.

Ok wow that was super messed up. The terrorist girls trying to kill everyone pissed me off lol. Looks like the eri theory was correct. Not sure if shaddiq or the mom are going to be the final villain. The thing about the quiet plan is, I feel like it would be abused and just used to control everyone rather than just create a peaceful society - knowing delling.

This is gonna sound so ignorant, but I am low key confused after watching episode 02. Can someone clarify for me if I am understanding this correctly.

1) Sophie is Suletta's real life sister? And their mother changed Sophie to fit a Gundam Mobile Suit? Does this mean Sophie was or looked different prior, Is this correct? Was Sophie already aware of Suletta being her sister? And did Suletta kill her sister?

Where my Bob

Shaddiq is at work here for reasons unknown. A power grab perhaps? Earthians are being led on a string by Shaddiq. They want Spacians dead (as referenced by Sophie), and he recruited the Earth organization Dawn of Fold to do his bidding, which were fighting against those of the school in this episode, just as they did in the prior season finale.

How Shaddiq has amassed such a loyal following between Earthians and Spacians is beyond me. Ideally we’ll get the full picture soon. He’s clearly running counter to Delling, Prospera, Sarius, etc. But first and foremost, he removed the two big-wigs from the fold (Delling and Sarius). What comes next should be interesting.

No, Eri is who is being referenced as sulettas sister. Eri was the little girl in the prologue. Her mother altered eri somehow and used her to create aerial. Sophie means something entirely different when she said she'd make suletta her sister.

"If you run you gain one. If you move forward you gain two."

If you run from your daughter being linked to the system, you gain 1 daughter. If you move forward with your insane project, you gain a working Gundam and you can clone your daughter after getting the 2.

2nd daughter of Suletta 's mother  turned into a Gundam which uses data storm to take over other gund fighter

Finally, it is nice to see the series picking up the action so soon rather than having all those school duels again. To kill of one of the terrorists so soon, I hope the show won’t rush everything all the way to the finale.

Most of us already read the theory about Suletta having another sister and she was Aerial so the reveal did not surprise me. I think Suletta will disarm all her future opponents instead of killing them now that she has questioned the reason for her Gundam’s existence.

Great episode. My only gripe was that the battle royale was too chaotic. Too many of the female voice actresses have similar "bratty" voices. The characters were wearing helmets so it hard to use their hair to identify them given how fast that scene was moving. The mechs weren't unique enough design wise. It was difficult to make out who was attacking who since there were like so many side characters in that scene belonging to different houses.

Btw, for those of you confused about who Eri is... Watch the prologue episode that aired before season 1. It's this thing:



It's why so many of us were confused when Suletta popped up in season 1 bcause of the name change and her age not making sense.

When the Earth girl plays fortune teller on season 1, she asks if Suletta has a sister and points to the stone that fell on number 12. I added it to the fact that Aerial have 11 Gund bits and the new ending shows multiple Sulettas

This just went completely into Evangelion territory. I'm surprised that no one in the thread has mentioned it yet. I mean, Sulleta's mom is literally a nice version of Gendo at this point. Might as well mention the Human Instrumentality Plan soon.

I didn't care much for the character that died and was tired of her tone/attitude so it was actually a relief that she passed away. I hope similar antagonists have more nuance and subtlety than she did.

In the end Suletta probably wakes up and has her own thoughts of whats right and wrong. Her tears shows that she's having her own feelings.

Probably Earth Federation vs Spacian in the later part.

Oh my fucking God. Congratulations to the theorists for guessing correctly, it's now confirmed, Aerial is indeed Eri.

Now I am curious whether Suletta is an actual daughter of Prospera or she's just a clone of Eri or some other fucked up shit. I am also curious whether Prospera has really become this cold hearted, she's doing it for Eri as she said, but is there something more behind her, behind that helmet. Like how did she even end up this way, there's gotta be more to it after the prologue, cause Elnora then wouldn't have turned her daughter into a Gundam.

Holy shit Sophie, props to her voice actor too, I could feel the pain from those screams. They all deserve better, like Goddamn they all need therapy after this. Earthians, Spacians, Terrorists, it don't matter, they need therapy.

They really gave us one last taste of the school life and the duels in the previous episode, knowing how they're gonna destroy us in this episode. Things definitely won't be the same from this point on.

Also, that ED scares me even more now, will Suletta turn into a Gundam too? Fuck no.

Well, can't wait for more pain. Miorine gonna come back and walk in to this.

Wow the mom is using Suletta for her Project Zero, wtf. This guy Elan is STILL trying to cling on Suletta, omg just leave her alone already. The Open Campus duels are about to begin and everyone gets ready on their places. The CEO joins in as well to watch it. The battle is going until they get ambushed by the Earthians and everything turns into chaos. 

Someone almost got killed in the process, what even is going on. Nika out here trying to confess something but gets stopped by someone else. Meanwhile the CEO gets taken away by some people and Elan is like "I see", lol. The chaos goes on and on until they literally go into space and fight there as well. Suletta now even begins to question why her mom build Aerial. Now the real deal comes to light, Prospera had another daughter and she turned the daughter into a Gundam? what the hell. Her name is Erichi Samaya. What an reveal, wow. RIP Sophie. I love how they now put illustrations at the end of the episode.
