| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Pretty intense episode. Tons of action and I'm glad to see Mika and Tekkadan taking the charge to mount their counter attack this week. In the meantime, Akihiro's anger is quickly showing. I can't blame him though after what happened to Lafter. Speaking of Mika, he looks pretty confident this week and determined too. |

| The way Barbatos looked when it was about to execute Jasley was just so devilish. Such a quick and swift end. And with that, the revolution has finally begun. |
DIE JASLEY!!!! next will be Iok. |
| Great episode. Action was great as usual, New Barabatos is absolutely boss, love the design and the new weaponry. Akihiro's decided to go all out from now as well. Seeing Mika impale that greatsword into Jasley was so satisfying, Die Jasley! One name off the list and one more to go. Iok, can't wait to see him die. :) It's also kinda sad to see how all the constant battles have dehumanized the guys of Tekkadan from the value of life. Especially notable with Chad and the other guy who was with him and even Akihiro. :( The revolution begins, Go Tekkadan, Change the World! |

| FEELS GOOD MAAAANN!!!!! Finally the pest extermination has begun and one Shitlord is down the drain at last!! Even if you already died Jasley all I can say for u is.. DIE SOME MORE!! am literally marathon watching the loop of his death right now until I feel satisfied, probably for another hour or so I guess Oddly though, our King Shitlord Iok is weirdly inexistent throughout this episode.. forget about the Finale, I'm more hyped on how they're gonna exterminate him!! XD Rex is kinda, uhh.. ok, I guess.. not super OP but maybe later it will show more of it's royal prowess in the future.. also, so they consider the weapon from the Mobile Armor as a tail.. ok, that's definitely new from the usual just add more wings to the final Gundam we've been getting lately.. I just hope I don't see gundams in the future sporting like 8 tails in the future though.. ok back to rewatching Jasley's murder!! wohoo, need to cook me some more popcorns!! |
 |
| Ah man, I almost had an ORGASM. I watched that dickhead die ten times now. I loved how he was begging for mercy. Now that braindead fuck Iok is next. Oh, I am gonna die of happiness. |
| Aww yes you deserved it Jasley! It was great seeing Jasley's face as he realized just who exactly he was messing with. Also that mechanic throwing some hints at Julieta... |
"Fortress Maximus has come himself. Okay! Then I shall get Fortress Maximus to fight me, huh huh huh!" |
| Good episode. Revolution in Gjallhorn is looking legit. Still not convinced with the reason Orga gave for getting involved with Gjallhorn in a power struggle. They are going down a path of destruction though, consistent tone at least. I like how the sides are divided, "old" gjallhorn against the revolutionary gjallhorn plus tekkadan. Mcgillis reveal next week too. Looking forward to it. |
| I wanted Jasley's death to be more brutal to be honest, he didn't suffer enough but none the less his death was welcomed.. Also that Rex form is amazing but so is the person piloting it. |
| For a moment I got Jasley confused with someone else (he's not the same without the silly hat and jacket). It was a pleasure seeing him perish. Iok next please. That ending was ominous. I wonder how many, if any of Tekkadan will survive. |

| That was too easy a death for Jasely.... he deserved a million times worse than such a quick death. I stick to my torture method from last episodes thread.... That said, I wish I'd seen Iok's expression when they made the announcement of his crimes against the Turbines and the calling out of his misdeeds to Gjallarhorn. Seems we'll be in for some civil war shit. I would be happy that Tekkadan is joining, but Kudelia's last narration about them finally arriving at "that fateful day" just raised a shit ton of death flags all over. If anything it felt like she was telling her grandkids about some people that she used to know (i.e. that aren't here no more). I'm not looking forward to how this will potentially end for Tekkadan.... |
HESTIA   APPROVES |
| I kept saying to people in forums that Hush will get his MS from someone who just died....But I didn't wish for that MS...RIP Lafter ASlo Jasley died like the pathetic Dog he is. Abandoned by McMurdo Abandoned by Iok, because the Rustal and Kujan faction is being killed politically And having to beg for his life in front of Orga and Mika. Now just one more Idiok to die. |
 Visit this blog That I'm working with my friend http://randomnessthing.com/ |
| A very satisfying episode. I hope Iok die in the most brutal way in the upcoming episodes. Love the new form of Barbatos. |
 |
| Time for Iok to die next, if that idiot somehow survived then fck it. He have the most stupid reason to against tekkadan ever |
| Akihiro should have got the death blow instead of Mika. That was a bit disappointing. Nevertheless, great action in this episode. That last line was not promising at all... McGillis and Vidar are also around to make things interesting. |
| OMG that was sooo satisfying BTW loving Barbatos Lupus Rex GO TO HELL JASLEY!!!!!!!!! |
 |
| murdered IdIok the same way Jasley was wouldnt be enough. tear him apart, crush all his members, break all his teeth |
| bruh |
| Pretty good episode, the things outside of the fight were actually the far more entertaining part of the episode since things are finally all coming into place from alot of the build up the show has been going through. Cannot wait till next week where we finally get to see mcgillis fully fleshed out next week so lets hope they dont mess up what has been easily the most interesting character in the final stretch also i hope kudelia is more important for this final stretch, the vibe i got from this episode is that she is going to try and stop all this cause she doesnt want to see them all run off to their deaths. |

| Awesome revenge episode, feels so good to see Jasley die. Now all that is left is to take down Lok and Rustal. Not sure which side Gaelio is gonna be on because he has always believed in justice, I won't actually be surprised if Gaelio ends up siding with McGillis in the battle. If he does however, it will still suck for him because McGillis didn't tell him his plan during the first season. I'm sure both Gaelio and Carta would have assisted him in his goal. |
 |
| Never in my life have I been so happy to see someone die....FUCK YOU JASLEY AND I HOPE YOU ROT IN THE DEEPEST PITS OF HELL FOR ALL ETERNITY The real battle starts now though and I'm scared af for Tekkadan.....Plus it looks like Not Gali Gali is finally going to make a move (And hopefully we get an unmasking too) in conjunction with finding out more behind Chocolate Aznable's goals Overall great episode |
Kujou_Kurisu said: ..and, still no signs of lafter Maybe because she's dead? I was also disappointed with this episode. Akihiro should've been the one that finished Jasley, not Mikazuki (who is the worst Gundam protagonist). The next episode looks promising - McGillis' past and Vidar vs Barbatos. |
| Iok i next! I wanna see Tekkadan ripping his balls off. |
Narration: It was at this moment, Jasley realized he f***ed up. But it was too late. |
| I'm not just a Tsundere, I am THE Tsundere. |
| His death wasent shown his body slowly getting crushed i mean come on you show the good guys death in screen but not the bad guys it always off screen for them where the justice in death. This episode is good but dosent feel justified |
| Iok fucked up again, but in a good way. after beating the shit outta Iok, Rustal and Vidar i wonder how they can make excuse to make McGills as the final boss. he reeks char too much, there is no way he is only going to play season 1 Kudelia part as politics ally only |
Cross  AngeHey guys check my profile for current airing season anime recommendation (guaranteed best taste) |
| Good episode tons of action. That new Barabatos Lupis Rex kicks soo much ass, Mika wasn't even trying. |
| I have the feeling this would be even better when I could binge watch it. But im to impatient to wait for it to end :D I wonder when Kudelia will be doing .. something.. again. It feels a bit weird after the first season where they head a clear goal in mind. Now they just go around and see whats coming. Hopefully this will finally change next week, with the revolution of gjallarhorn as the destination. Then again, kudelia doesnt really has something to do with them. After all the build up for the maiden of revolution she is pretty much a side character this season. Even jasleys death was not enjoyable. It was very obvious he would die, but nothing else really happened. |
| "This emotion is mine alone. It is for Madoka alone." - Homura or how I would descripe Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica. |
| I still feel empty after Jalsey's death. I'm not satisfied. None of this brings Lafter or Naze or Amida back. Nothing was gained from this but empty revenge and lost connections and support. I wanted Jalsey to die, but it feels like such a hollow victory. None of this seems worth the price. |
 |
| Dick Tracy PIMP wannabe Jasley got to the afterlife pretty quick and painless *sigh* I wanted him to be humiliated more and suffer a little more too. Begging for mercy after all he has done, F*cking coward! I don’t like how Kudelia sounded at the end of this chapter saying those words... I don’t want to think about it… *Foreshadowing* What are McGillis real intentions?! |
 |
| Pretty solid ep, expected Jasley's death to feel more satisfying though, nice to see his breakdown though in his final moments. JizzyHitler said: also i hope kudelia is more important for this final stretch, the vibe i got from this episode is that she is going to try and stop all this cause she doesnt want to see them all run off to their deaths. They really need to do something with Kudelia instead of her just sitting in her office and observe all season. |
 |
| That was one quick end to Jasley, glad it didn't like drag on into a couple episodes. Iok needs to be the next person to get killed even if he got out of the deal with Jasley on enforcing him because he's a dumbass and killed some innocent ppl as well as abusing his power. I have a feeling Orga may be the only one in the end who survives as he becomes the King of Mars. Can already imagine the ending. |
| That. Felt. Good. Though it was hard to believe Jasley could even consider Tekkadan could forgive his murdering not just Lafter, but everyone conntected to Turbines that he indirectly murdered. Really though, it was a good death. Definitely in the top 3 I've seen, though Mine finally killing that crazy bitch Seryuu in Akame ga Kill! still tops that list. Now we need only wait for IdIok to die slowly. And I'm really thinking it's about time Akihiro break his own limiter. I'm willing to bet he does it against Alaya-Vijnana Julieta. |

rootless said: starkipraggy said: Actually it's thematically consistent, the problem with Tekkadan as stated many times by Kudelia/Merribit/other well-meaning adults is that they essentially have no direction and basically just go around trashing whatever the hell it is they're supposed to for that week. A lot of late S1/early S2 tried to steer them into trying to build a future, but the latest arc essentially turned them back into a ragtag team of berserkers in one fell swoop. Why? Because that's just how they've been, and it's a lot harder to change your lifestyle that anime often makes it look. You can tell even Orga has no fucking idea where they're headed, he pretty much admits that Naze was right this episode. They're going to make it "big" (whatever that means) and take it easy after. While the setup seems to be towards a downer end, I don't see enough powerful enemies to threaten Tekkadan -- It'll probably take every single faction in the entire show to even stand a chance of beating their 3 Gundam + Alaya-Shiki lineup. That might change with the coming eps I guess. Being thematically consistent doesn't excuse forceful writing. Tekkadan has now reverted to their pre-Turbines state but with more powerful weaponry and more connections. Emotionally however, they have almost always been there. Its due to this that I can almost excuse the poor handling of Kudelia this season. At least whenever she's shown, she has actually matured beyond her initial portrayal of being a complete idealist. She has shown that she now has a clear goal and plan of what to do. I understand that Orga and Kudelia are supposed to be foils as leaders and that Kudelia is supposed to be the better one but the other members of Tekkadan not growing even after supposedly years have passed, is just silly. The show shoves down our throats that they need to learn more but hardly anyone of the original members is doing that. Against Hashmal, Nadi is surprised to find out that a new recruit this season can work out the intricate details of Gundams. More educated members are joining the ranks but the original members, the ones in the room with Orga this episode that lead most operations, are still static in their learning. Akihiro is admittedly the one member with the most development throughout the series. He accepts his humanity, finds people he considers important and now he's also reverting back though its only very slightly. as I think it was a two year gap between season 1 and 2? Anyway, you said it yourself. "Emotionally they have always been there" The original members of tekkadan grew up fighting for survival, some of them even seeing it as their reason to be. I get that you want a change in their dynamics, but change isn't always easy, especially when something has been so deeply engrained. Biscuit was somewhat of a limiter for Orga but even he always followed Orga with his reckless decisions. Even if the other members were more vocal about all this the end result would likely be the same. Kudelia has grown, but her circumstances are completely different. So character wise I don't see a problem. I do agree that the plot can feel forced, especially with the whole king of mars deal. It doesn't feel as solid as the season 1 goal of making a name for tekkadan for future endeavors. It was explored a bit more this episode,becoming king of mars really has no meaning, and if anything it's symbolical. It is definitely thematically consistent, and if we get some solid introspection in regards to tekkadan and their goals it should be able to clear the problem. I think the reformation of the tyrannical and corrupt Gjallhorn is a good objective, but this is where Tekkadan's lack of direction shows. They're getting into a huge power struggle for a vague objective of king of mars. Either way, 8 episodes left, let's see where this goes and hope it works on current flaws. |

AnimeSoap said: I think it was a two year gap between season 1 and 2? Actually I believe there was only a 6 to 9 month time skip inbetween. It is not really clear how much time elapsed in season 1. Back in episode 1 the shopkeeper that Atra worked for said that Mika wouldn't be back for about 5 months, but that was of course before gjallahorn's interference. However we now know that a one-way trip between Earth and Mars can be as little as three weeks. Either way I doubt that more than half of year went by in season 1 and even that much is unlikely. As for season 2, I think only about three to four months have passed so far. We know that the small war on Earth lasted about 3 to 4 weeks and then another month passed before Tekkadan packed up and left Earth to go back to Mars, which would have taken at least another three weeks assuming they took the shortest route. So that there is at least a little over two months. There was also the one week time skip after the mobile armor was defeated. So far I don't think even two years have passed since the series started. |

Agreed. McGillis and the whole Gjallhorn deal has been developing very nicely. I just hope Tekkadan can get good in the final stretch. They seem very aimless at the moment unlike in season 1. |
