| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Good action this episode really liked the space battle as the style reminds me of the first season. Ah looks like Mika is ready to do anything to win. Better get out of his way! |
 |
| Whoa, what an intense battle! Might be just the most intense and grand-scale melee to date! And I'm loving all the strategy and tactics stuff about it, too, and, just like the spoilers said, it turned into a more or less 3 way showdown. Julietta is asking to die there, getting into Mika's way when he's going for Sandoval. Orga working for 36 hours straight and still not feeling like resting? That's some mad stamina right there. I guess development for the new characters is on hold for now, Hash had only 2 brief cameos, but that's fine with me, as some more exciting stuff is happening. The pit-stop was cool, seriously felt like a race. Lupus in action is the coolest mecha of the series, though Rebake Full City is not far behind. Oh, and I wonder where Tekkadan got another ship (I think I'm gonna miss Orga on the old bridge of Isaribi which is now fully Eugene's territory). And yeah, the Masked Man is Gaelio, that voice was telling. |
| ったく、嫌な世の中だよ。 |
| aaaaaaannndd!! it ends with another effing cliffhanger.. god damn!! finally got some good Barbatos action.. it pains me to think I'm gonna wait another week for the next episode.. so masked man is pretty much confirmed to be Gaelio.. |

| Great episode, Classic Action packed Gundam. Soundtrack was excellent as well. Orga worked for 36 hours. :O Nice little moment he and Mika shared. Nice to see Eugene taking control of positioning and movement. Pretty cool how Tekkadan just charge through the middle to take out the enemies backlines, Reckless strategy though. Loved the full scale space battles, Tekkadan is really equipped for battle now. Performing mid battle refuels efficiently and even mid battle snacks. xD Glad that there's also a bit of strategy involved. I love how Sunruse make Barabatos looks so cool on the battlefield, With all those blue trails and eye flashes, Full City was pretty nice as well. That Scissor weapon was neat. The pirate leader's mech also looked kinda cool with those dual sickle weapons. I guess the new glowing masked man is pretty much confirmed to be Gaelio. Julietta really shouldn't be trying to stop Mika. |
 |
| This is how you do a proper space battle. Hot damn that was intense, tiring and fulfilling all at the same time. Gundam IBO delivering in spades. Ooh, little quiet Julietta you're so full of yourself and now you've pissed of Mikazuki. Thou ass is toast, if not in this episode, some down the line. |

| Holy shit, that was insane. These Gjallarhorn bastards are getting on my nerves, and I can clearly see that this bitch is underestimating Mika. Hope he tears her a new one in the next episode. I am sure that the guy in the mask is the one that McGillis supposedly killed, I forgot his name. Hopefully McGillis arrives there as well. |
| With that voice. It is Gaelio after all. He is back for revenge. Man it is really fun to watch the warfare episodes. Just pumps you up. That girl from Gjallarhorn has a death wish for facing Mika. Looks like the other fleet of Gjallarhorn wants to take the credit for defeating the pirates' leader. |

| That Gjallarhorn chick getting in Mika's way. She gonna die |
| Man, what an awesome episode. Also I think now that the masked man is Gaelio, the voice alone confirmed it. And I for one cannot wait to see how this will play out. Also thought Dante was going to be killed and glad he didn't die because I'm liking all the new pilots so far. Julietta can piss off lol |

 |
| Very nice battle scenes in this episode. That scene when Atra is giving food to Mika while resupplying Lupus is cute. I can't wait what happens next with Julietta's Reginlaze vs Mika's Barbatos Lupus. :) |

Julietta can piss off lol Yeah that has to be Gaelio under that mask and I see a bare Gundam frame as well. I don't think Julietta will die next episode, I don't see the death flags at all but she'll get her ass kicked by Mika anyway. |
 |
| Epic episode! finally some Barbatos kicking mobile fcking suit ass, it was funny that while the repairs was being done to barbatos Mika was enjoying the food. Girl about to get rekt, one does not simply stop Mika from killing his prey. OP's addicting! |
  |
| another amazing ep, amazing battle going on but now im looking forward to see how the newer characters will fight looking forward to next ep |
| "one step at a time" |
| man what an awesome and intense battle |
 |
| Dat upgraded Gusion gundam's name though! -> Gundam Gusion Rebake Full City HAHAHA, where do they come up with these xD Great action throughout the episode! |
 |
| These episodes is where the Gundam series shine the most and this episode was amazing. Intense action all the way through and I am super hyped for the next one. Also Gusion Rebake Full City was pretty dope. |
| Very nice battle! Mika is gonna wreck some shit while pissed off. |
| Well they sure didn't go to great lengths to hide what happened to Gaelio |
| That was a very nice battle and the race to get the last kill should make next episode even more exciting. |
| 5 main aspects I base my ratings on: 1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it? 2. Is it better than Breaking Bad? 3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it? 4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL? 5. Is it actually good? Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant... |
| Man that felt more like a legend of the galactic heroes fight than a gundam one, love the massive scale this one fight had. It feels totally different than the fights in season 1. and yeah it was obvious that gali gali was masked dude, they honestly should of just revealed that last episode. I wonder if he can actually take that mask off though or if he will die if he does. |

| Glad to see Tekkadan doing great. It's so weird to see Tekkadan and Gjallarhorn fighting together xD And it's even weirder watching Tekkadan and Gjallarhorn VS Gjallarhorn. Hope Mika will teach them all a lesson ;) |

| We see how mikazuki right hand, so i wonder it was miss lightining or mikazuki right eye has some problem too. It was technic problem, our part of story since right hand never he use.  |
XGein said: We see how mikazuki right hand, so i wonder it was miss lightining or mikazuki right eye has some problem too. It was technic problem, our part of story since right hand never he use. Mika's right eye can't see anymore, he can only see again when he isn't piloting Barbatos. |
| Hey, guys! I am new to Gundam. Why is that masked man after the blond guy? Pretty awesome episode. But I literally ROFL when they fell for the tow trick. I could see that coming within a second after they mentioned only three ships are there. Medieval age tactic and they fell for it. LOL. |

| Ah, my weekly does of heavy metal on metal action. The mecha mayhem was great, as always, even more so with the addition of a few new suits and a refurbished old one. However, the masked man's Gundam Frame was probably the most intriguing one of them all. Barbatos Lupus will definitely meet a worthy opponent. I rather liked the pirate leader's distinction between the Human Debris and true pirates, empathising the cruel fate of child soldiers (in any faction, for that matter). |
| tfw Garma becomes the new Char and your Gusion can't Rebake your Full City Tekkadan fell way to easily for the three ship trick (it was pretty obvious an experienced boss of a successful pirate group would never remain in a dangerous area while leaving himself open to attacks like that), but they quickly redeemed themselves with all the clever tactics they used during the ensuing battle. Speaking of which, it really reminded me of this week Haikyuu!! in just how intense and positively exhausting it was; if the show can deliver this much on its first big battle, then no doubt that the rest of the season is going to be one hell of a ride. The different character interactions were much more enjoyable and easy to follow as well, since, unlike episode 1 and 2, the dialogue didn't suffer from the necessity to provide any kind of exposition. The OST is still fire and that cliffhanger was on point. So yeah, pretty darn good episode. fst said: Everyone had already figured out it was him anyway, so they might as well not drag out the mystery for the whole season.Well they sure didn't go to great lengths to hide what happened to Gaelio |

| AOTS is right here, insane space battle, It's great and give me a goosebump like when i played Starcraft 1 when i was a little kid, there is many similiarity in the theme for sure |
 |
XGein said: its a intentional choice, mika's right eye is dead outside of the barbatos and throughout the entire first episode it was always without any shine in it save for when he was in the mech. In this episode we also see his right arm just floating around limp.We see how mikazuki right hand, so i wonder it was miss lightining or mikazuki right eye has some problem too. It was technic problem, our part of story since right hand never he use. |

| Gali Gali omg 😲 He's back for revenge |
| That was an awesome space battle. It was very intense and the soundtrack fit very well. Mika was just wreaking people. I laughed when Mika was being fed by Atra. That was cute. I can't wait for the next episode. |
 |
Considering your spoiler, you seem to be familiar with the first season? If so, you should know why Gaelio is a bit pissed at McGillis. If you forgot rewatch episode 25 of season 1. |
| I love Tekkadan. Go, Mika! Go! It's so obvious that the Masked Man is Gal Gal. |
| I'm in love with this show! The animation was really smooth and fluid during the fight scenes which is what I like to see. Also the Lupus is such a monster, I love it. |
| Not to say Mika ain't great but.... I think everyone here on the thread are taking Julietta a bit too lightly. The fact that she could sneak in and block Barbatos' way is already indication that she's not to be taken lightly. Just because Mika's in a Gundam doesn't immediately make him invincible. Specially not when Gali's MS is obviously another Gundam remains from the previous wars. As per normal, I expect Barbatos to gain an upgrade or three before the end of this season. I expect the only reason why Julietta will back off is because her "Master" gets himself into some stupid shit and she's forced to. That said, seeing Atra at the farm in the preview, I'm pretty positive that the conflict ends in a Tekkadan victory. I just don't expect Mika to have his own way the entire battle, is all. Loved the tactics used this episode, as well as the smart conservation and resupplying strategy they used in between the battle. Looking forward to the conclusion of the battle next week. |
HESTIA   APPROVES |
| Good episode. I like the fact that they're putting in some real battle strategy and coordination. Gundam used to be about just MC going in and destroying swaths of MS by himself and it's nice to see in IBO that others get to do work. But I think they need to think up more lines for Orga. It's always "I'm being pushed forward by Mika" or "All we can do is keep going." Also, must say I'm still disappointed by the very predictable fact that Gaelio is almost 100% the masked man. It really feels like they destroyed a central plot from the last season, unless McGillis deliberately left Gaelio alive to check himself...but that seems unlikely, and pretty nonsensical. |

| Good space battle, lots of MS action, thought they were gonna do more with the ship-to-ship though. Gusion Rebake Full City with its pincer was 👌 I'm thinking Julietta was a human debris rescued by Rustal hence her eccentric personality. Wonder how she will clash with the top notch Mika. |
 Novels I have read/am reading pending approval: since November 10 2022 |
| Awesome action packed episode! Now that's what we call target/prey stealing! Gjallarhorn forces are so broad and makes me think they always have the upperhand!? 5/5! |
 |
| Action the entire episode (finally) !!! Mika's right arm works when he's plugged in huh? |
  |
| Great action packed episode, three different teams against one and another :D I hope Mika meets his match because he has just been too OP from the beginning, he needs to be defeated. |
 |
| That assistant girl for that Rustral or whatever his name is, is annoying. Get out of Mika's way! |
| Man Mika is brutal as ever! I guess its all but confirmed that the masked man is Gaelio :/ |
