Intense battle I was fearing that someone would die while they were looking for Shakti, but nope they all made it.

Wow Shakti is actually Maria's daughter. O_O

5/5

Shakti being Maria's daughter, I didn't see that coming.

Pretty nice episode. It was better than the previous ones.

i thought the shakti being maria's daughter was pretty damn obvious given that chronicle pretty much outright stated she reminded him of her, that and the picture of the baby having dark skin

also that insert song was really random

Jizzy as you would call yourself because youre a dick The most butthurt award goes to you And clearly you havent watched that many shows thats why you cant determine if a show is unique or not Or maybe you're just a child who likes common stuffs where hero saves the day and guys gets all the girls. Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me

And here I thought Chronicle was a pedophile. Looks like he's just the uncle in the relationship. Hope he doesn't get drunk and goes into her room after losing to Uso additional times.

I never got it before they blurted it out. Although, I had a long break from this show, so the minor details from the earlier episodes have gotten very hazy. An interesting turn for sure; This could be either a good or a bad thing, depending on how Tomino can execute it.

Odelo is more stupid than I thought.

So, we got the genetic confirmation of Shakti's identity, but we still have to learn how and why she was taken to Earth. And the men's sayings lead to another question: is it a case of immaculate conception? I hope not, because this would be too much even for the Newtype concept.
About that, Maria is supposed to be an incredibly strong Newtype but she's blind to her own government's actions? She's probably the worst case of a high-level NT until now to be able to choose war in order to bring peace and an ideal order. Where is the "mutual comprehension" gone?

Beam-wires? How can it be?

I didn't get why a song started suddenly, either.


4/5 If Shakti being taken to her genetic mother brings the spotlight on her and the Zanscare organization, it can become more interesting.


edit: I am very surprised that Shakti's identity was such a revelation for others.

Congrats for putting so much pressure on Uso with your stupid shit, Odelo. muh "imma man so i gotta fight hurr durr" won't do you any good in situations where not initiating the fight is the best option, you trigger-happy imbecile.

Wait, what the hell was that insert song even for? Tomino pls

It's the song Shakti sung to Karl. Dramatic effect maybe?

Solid episode, but the pacing seemed off.. what the hell was with that song montage? It just happened out of nowhere. And it would not be a Gundam series without the pilot stealing the Gundam out from under the Captain's nose. You'd think they'd know to set up some security system already.

I wonder what was that focus on the captain of Zanscare ship. Might he be Uso's father who defected? Big revelation if true (he was supposed to be a rebel)

Well, important revelations in this episode. Odelo was kinda annoying in the battle.

Never got this bored with a Gundam series. Did they even bother to give Shakti a personality?
