I really don't think Chocolate man actually has a thing for little girls. I don't think he's capabale of feeling any kind of real attraction. I do beleive he meant it when he told Galileo he'd take care of her before "offing" him.

OMG, merribit and the old man together was so random. I never thought they could have a relationship because they never gave us a hint.

Well, i was shipping orga x merribit, but orga had his chance since season 1. The old man was smarter hahahahha

Probably the next couple will be akihiro x the ponytail girl. But as i said before, I don't think they are the perfect match

And I'm really worried about naze's life. Orga keeps doing these agrements without thinking about the consequences. If naze dies because of Orga's stupidity i won't forgive him

Setup for action -> eye-catch -> slow -> tiny bit of action -> end of episode.
... ugh...

Naze's harem is explained a bit (which I already guessed a season ago).

I was also surprised that Merribit & Old Man are now dating! just like on how surprised Chad was! lol
Vidar would prove as a superior enemy and a threat to all of Tekkadan!
The third new Gundam Frame looks cool and named "Gundam Flauros" another added big guns on Tekkadan! I wonder who will be its pilot? might be hash?
5/5.

Which ship is that? Is it Shino/Yamagi?
No one would claim that this comes out of no where, people havent shut up about them since the first series.

True especially that it's obvious Yamagi has a thing for Shino but will this relationship ever happen? Who knows. I just mentioned this pairing because I couldn't think of any other but there might be another potential pairing that I overlooked?

i feel like the relationship wont go anywhere especially since shino is eating the death flag cake massively.

I knew Merribit got blacked; Orga had his chance. But then again I don't think the producers even wanted to write a 2nd season for this show, it came out of nowhere too, so now they're changing up a lot of things with cast, like making them be more ruthless and setting up even more of all these death flags.

When Chad said Nadi Yukinojo Kassapa didn't smell I thought Gjallarhorn might've kidnapped Nadi and replaced him with an android lol. His crush is ruined.

Ein is inside the Vidar Gundam, isn't he?

Most spectacular scene of the episode was when the Vidar Gundam fire shots in two directions.

When McGillis was reading "The Life of Agnika Kaieru". Let's say Char would be proud.

I'm not the only one who was shocked to find out that Nadi and Merribit were dating, I had the same reaction as Chad.

Poor Orga. :( Oh well, I have a feeling he might die in the near future or most of them will die.

That ending, I have another feeling McGillis might use poor Almira or she might end up dying. Don't do that to my loli! D:

Fun Fact, the last scene with McGillis and Almiria takes place is based on an actual location.

It's a house named Wingspread designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, and is located in Wind Point, WI just north of Racine. It was built in the years 1938 to 1939, and the building I believe is now open to the public and can be toured.

I believe an aerial shot was shown last season of this house in the show, so here is an aerial shot of the real house:

So Merribit is dating Nadi? O.o wtf xD I was shipping for her with Orga hahaha
I probably know who is that guy with the mask, i don't remember his name but he is "brother" of McGillis, so that means that he survived? I may be wrong but that's what i think.
Btw they finally revealed one of the Gundams that they've found in that mine, he looks so nice with all that gray cover. But i can't wait to see the another one that they never showed.
And also, that last scene xD
I hope that Tekkadan grows so that Naze can leave Teiwaz and join his "aniki" in Tekkadan ;)

Get off your high horse. Doubt anybody is watching this for romance, seeing as it's so little and irrelevant. You don't need to watch for romance to want to see ships or w/e, it's just there. And this is a shocking moment int he show, important or not.

What, butthurt because your shipping delusion turned out to be just that, a delusion? That's what you get for trying to see ships everywhere with and without reason, you just stop seeing the content for what it really is.

Lol what. I'm not shipping anybody. You are as bad as the shippers you are ranting on. Things don't exist in extremes just because you want to see a couple doesn't mean you are only watching the show because of it. It's just a bonus.

And stop pretending there wasn't implication between Orga and merbit.

Whaa--I thought there was always a thing between Orga and Merribit. Like an Onee-chan showing her little brother the ropes. Shock! I wonder if the identity of the masked man is supposed to be obvious. It's been too long since I've seen the first season so only a couple of guesses pop up. That scene at the end with McGillis and his loli fiance was actually kind of...creepy. I mean, I know McGillis isn't serious about her, but when they were head-to-head I was like "oh god, please don't kiss."

I'm not really finding many of these characters as interesting as they were in the first season, I think because their stories have been somewhat told already. Hush is a bit irritating. I forgot about Fareed's pedophilia. It seems the point is to contrast the treatment of children with Tekkadan and also with the school. It's really creepy, and it ties into the themes of the show well, a dark reflection. Naze's harem thing still feels kind of tone-deaf to me; arguably, he could be thought of as sexually manipulative. Maybe that's overreaching? I don't know. It's weird to have him as this sort of superior to these women due to saving them and then taking them all as girlfriends. Clearly, they legitimately like him in this series, but I don't think this is exactly a thing that should be encouraged.

Everybody promoting pedophilia or making jokes about it on this post is disgusting.

Good for the two "parents" of Tekkadan tho I could've sworn Merribit had eyes for Orga. And poor Chad lol.

That last McGillis scene is gross but I can't tell how much of his words were genuine and how much were him manipulating her for his schemes.

the fact that merribit is dating Yukinojo is the most shocking thing of the show, and i think they are good together, like a mother and father figure for tekkadan's members.
i've liked yukinojo from the beginning so i'm happy for him.
I cannot express how beautiful Gundam Vidar was, i absolutely love it.
