Ooh a new OP song. I kinda like it.

Ha, Aina is so conscious about what happened before between her and Mika, it's priceless.
Pretty lighthearted episode again until the second half. I was not entirely expecting a raid and Orga's guys to run into armed troops on their journey. The gunfight was kinda expected imo as some groups can be quite rebellious. Quite thrilling :o

So the plan was to mkae kudelia "die for the revoultion" and all the workers would start their rebellion after her death. I assume...
Mind blown lol. Cant wait to see how this is going to turn out.

first opening was better.

New OP, and it provided some interesting footage, although I still like Raise Your Flag better. New ED is nice as well, although maybe not as impactful as Orphans no Namida as far as the music is concerned, but better video footage there as well.

That worries me too. I sincerely hope it doesn't mean Mika is destined to die.

I'm loving all Fumitan's inner struggle. Unfortunately, it only reinforces her chances to meet her death protecting Kudelia there (becoming another trigger for Kudelia's development)

Kudelia and her aftermath reactions to the kiss were a riot, as expected! Cute and so completely innocent, making even Fumitan laugh. In the end, she couldn't bring herself to even utter the word "kiss" to Mika and ask him wth did he mean by kissing herXD Kudelia having a lot to say about personal hygiene and causing the guys to sniff themselves was golden too, I gotta say.

Mika, on the other hand, is chill as ever, but he possesses highly developed sense of danger and good observation skills while remaining relatively inconspicuous about observing people in the first place, and he's the only one who's immediately picked up on Fumitan's reactions being out of character.

I remember reading somewhere (possibly in the previous ep thread?) a commenter saying that if the hero ends up with the princess as planned, then Atra is likely to end up with Biscuit, and I think we're starting to see the show taking that route.

On the serious stuff, the development with the cargo turning out what it is took me by surprise. Tekkadan ended up in a very hairy situation where it really is hard to say what they should even do... I'm hoping Naze and the Turbines will help them out, this is exactly the time where their help is necessary. Buscuit's brother (although the cliche with the crew's brothers suddenly appearing out of nowhere is getting a little too old, if I'm honest) will play a role, too, obviously, and will probably die, not unlike Masahiro (to stimulate Biscuit's character development and maybe the Atra/Biscuit route).

The masked man appeared, and he awfully looks like McGuillis in a wig...

And damn, all the wait between episodes is killing me!

For a while in the episode I had strong feelings that Fumitan, biscuit and Atra are going to die soon. I don't know why, just felt really uneasy about the whole thing.

Good episode once again. First OP was better, but this one is still pretty good. I like the 2nd ED visuals better, but I prefer the 1 ED song. Once again the current song isn't bad either.

Come on, they were obviously set up, didn't you get the hint before? Along with Fumitan's suspicious activities?
It's cool that Mika sniffed it out.

I'll miss Raise Your Flag op and the James Bond-ish ed, but I have no choice but to get over it.

Nice setup w/ this episode but it makes me wish they got to the Kudelia stuff a lot sooner in the show. Now we're going to have 12 episodes of political agenda setup, the rebellion, and then possible reactionary circumstances surrounding the rebellion. If the show would have spent a bit more time clarifying the political agendas in the first half, then the 2nd half would have more room to breathe and progress more naturally, imo.

Well, good episode!

RIP Raise your Flag/Orphans no Namida. The new op's and ed's isn't bad at all, but I prefer the first songs.

The reactions by Kudelia after the kiss are so precious! hahahah She makes me laugh so loud! I think Mika will end up with her, but I'm worried about the new opening when we saw the Barbatos' wreck and Kudelia. I hope Mika will not die.

And it seems that Kudelia is on the centre of the show.

And about this part, I think it's similar to this image:



Back to IBO and serious stuff, I'm anxious to see how Tekkadan will fight on colony (better out of colony) against Gaelio and Erin.

Not a fan of the new OP but I'm sure it will grow on me


Fumitan big reveal was not a shocker, I mean didn't everyone pick that up right off the bat? Are people really shocked about her and her actions?

Now the shipping wars betweem Atra and Biscuit. I highly doubt this will go anywhere, unless Biscuit plays hero and Atra learns about the kiss and is hurt by it. I mean Atra is so into Mikazuki it will take alot to change that ship (Hell she is even okay with having a harem with him so doesn't that seal the deal on that ship)

As for Kudelia, I mean she was very cute this episode but she still hasn't grown on me, I can't really stand her.

Also look's like next EP stuff goes down so cannot wait for that.

Also Mikazuki is totally badass and is going to be one of my fav characters if he keeps up

I have missed Gundam this last week. I liked Raise your Flag more, but this is good too, but the ED for me is better than Orphans no Namida. This episode was really intense, Fumitan still has some reservations about letting Kudelia die, I would like to know who that guy with the mask is in the OP. Biscuit's brother is kind of suspicious. It would be very funny to see Kudelia asking Mika how he feels :D. I hope Orga and the others manage to escape.

The opening is pretty catchy but not as epic as the first one.

I am sure Fumitan will make the correct decision. Until then, I don't think I will hate her.

So The Masked Man will make his appearance and IT IS MACKY! There is no doubt about that Sakurai Takahiro voice in the preview, plus those eyes behind the mask. The best bit is Chocolate Aznable is supposed to be in a vacation so it's gonna be epic as he is also plotting the toppling of the current Galljarhorn.

Gundam IBO just got better.

No Orphans no Namida ED makes me kind of sad though.

I'm sure that masked is McGuillis. On the preview for the episode 15, he talks like if he changed your personality or something about this. He also talks about a ''new toy'' (maybe is the mask or the mobile suit).

So we finally have our Masked guy incoming. I wonder who exactly he is and what role he'll play.

Actually loved the OP quite a lot. There's gonna be a new chick with Gjallarhorn? Interesting design she has.

The way things were going this ep. Everything was going down to shit. Fumitan's orders, the shit that was going on with Orga and co, then the Biscuit brother stuff which will definitely cause problems soon. Seems like Fumitan won't be able to resist her love for Kudelia tho :D

So Kudelia is the Mockingjay. Finally things are getting interesting. Great start for 2016. Barbatos will probably end up the same way as Exia in the end.

And like the rest, I prefer the first OP and ED. I miss those already.

Before watching this episode I checked the anime's page here in MAL and thought that it doesn't have a 2nd opening and ending or just not updated, glad it was the latter. While watching the new ending I knew the voice sounded familiar and indeed it was, I love TRUE/Miho Karasawa's songs.

New OP and ED. The plot thicken. Fumita is a spy.
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.

I think the chances of a Gundam MC's death, actually, are 20%. :P

But I espect that Mika ''get married'' with Kudelia at the end of series. But hope a Season 02, where they return as a totally badass couple.

I prefer the first OP and ED but the new ones aren't so bad. They'll probably grow on me. I'm loving the visuals though!

Even though Fumitan is a spy, I actually like her. She's not so bad. Reading her tablet, Kudelia was supposed to be assassinated by a Gjallarhorn assassin, which, in turn, will cause a rebellion within the colony. After reading Savarin's tablet, I'm wondering if Fumitan had something to do with the shipment they delivered.

Kudelia thinks too much. All she did, in this episode, was blush about the kiss and talked about shopping and hygiene ._. wrf- For someone who is thought highly of, especially by those workers, I can't seem to understand why that's so. Maybe, eventually I will, but for now I have yet to be amazed by her.

Next ep preview done by Chocolate Man. That's Sakupyon's voice, alright xD The wig and mask though. Mika be sniffing Atra's boot and looking pissed. Poor Biscuit. What a shetty reunion to have with his brother .-.

It's not a harem anime, but everyone thought Mika would follow the teachings of Naze on serious stuff (like a captain or something similar) and love stuff (with a harem).

I think Fumitan won't die. I believe she will apologize to Kudelia and the others.
