THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
I think it's about time someone created this thread considering pay-streams and early rips of it are out. BD release is on March 22, but with any luck we'll see earlier rips of it.

With the exception of what has already been shown in the seven minute preview, there wasn't much mecha action to speak of in this episode as it took a backseat to the happenings on the Nahel Argama. The people who are watching Unicorn mostly for the mecha porn will have to endure another year of wait for the finale. I'm sure it won't disappoint in that regard.

With that said, this was another great episode with many good moments and interactions between characters.

Yeah, pretty damn good episode. So glad they decided to extend the series another episode.

I'm confused though. Why did Mineva give Frontal the coordinates?

I read this on a Gundam form "In the novels she was afraid the Sleeves would just torture Banaji to death to extract the final destination, so she revelead it so they couldn't lay a finger on the Zabi heir."

Great episode. It contains what separates Gundam franchise from other generic mecha - social and political aspects of the plot. Considering it's UC universe, they have a lot of things they can expand from previous series.

And now we wait..another year.

Really good build up episode for the finale. The talk between Mineva and Full Frontal was definitely the highlight of the episode. In the end he has the most realistic ideal but you can't call that a future. Also the ReZEL using the dummy balloons gave me the biggest smile. So classic lol.

And now we wait a year to see the ending, gotta believe in that posibility!

That was really good! Not as much action this time around but all that set up for an epic finale was well worth the wait.

And DAT animation and OST!!! Keeps getting me everytime :)

Full Frontal's purpose was finally exposed and it's not bad actually and Marida was awesome too. Loved the scene when she called Zinnerman Father...really nice :)

Can't wait a whole year T_T

Think I should rewatch all 6 again just so it'll make a little more sense since the release dates are fairly far apart.

Either way, this episode was as great as always. The emotions were spot on, the logic behind individuals ideals. This is Gundam. Can't wait for the next episode.

OMG! Epic episode! Only kids will rate this episode anything less than a 5! The dialogues in the middle, which almost took the entire half of the episode was simply amazing. So thought provoking and full of insights! No wonder why human race would never evolve to the point where peace and harmony will coexist with humanity.

Banaaji Rinkusu. Iunikon Gandamu. Ikimasu.

I came when the Unicorn took off!

I cannot believe I have to wait a whole year to watch Full Armour Unicorn in action! T_T

So true. Marida rocks.

Also, damn that brutal cliffhanger! What a fantastic episode. The wait's going to be tough for 7 but probably so worth it. So glad this got extended so they could do both 6 and 7 as best as possible.

Now that was an AWESOME episode and had such a great clash in ideology. Although I do hate cliffhangers this one was just too badass! I can't wait to see how this series ends with ep 7 (the agony of waiting for a year!) but at the same time it'll be sad to see such a good series end... :(

PS: Am I the only one that hates/dislikes Riddhe right now? He was great at the start but went down the drain after ep 4 or even 3.

Can't I rate the series higher than 10? Since it's at least 11.

The dialogues and allegories were absolutely brilliant, as well as the introduction of Full Armour Unicorn (damn, those boosters) and Banshee Norn. The prelude to episode was also brilliant, the final episode is going to be stunning, I don't even mind the wait any more.

"One man cannot be the voice of the wishes of the entire human race. Not unless he becomes a vessel. But to become a vessel, he must release everything, and go beyond his own madness and emerge from the other side."

....so says Full Frontal, but in becoming a vessel, he ceases to be human. He later says: "A vessel does not think for itself, it acts in accordance with the collective will that has been poured into it." But the vessel he has become is Char Aznable, a man. An interesting conundrum; after all, who would want a man who transcended humanity to decide the future for us humans?

All the more reason why I agree with Banagher when he says humanity's future should be built by humans. The lonely path of a vessel, or a path filled with pain and joy but shared humanity's collective conscience?

Yeah I watched the last episode exactly a year ago before this and it leaves me lost and confused, what the hell happened last episode anyway? LOL I think I'll try to marathon episode 1-6 before watching the last episode next time.

Anyway the visuals were still amazing and we get to see Full Frontal unmasking himself voluntarily.

Marida is the best characters in Unicorn.
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.

this i guess is going to be sunrise's ultimate anime masterpiece since code geass, like one of the best in anime history that will be told for generations to come...it really worked like a miracle >__<
...but first, judgment day will happen when it ends, thus i gotta hold the final verdict til the final episode~

in this episode, i witnessed one of the most epic mecha sortie launches ever made indeed, and that alone should be considered a masterpiece T^T

Amazing as ever!!

In the intro did FF just disabled general revil's forces rather than kill so as to use that get to banaghers and nahel argama's good side?

I love the grunt suits having spotlight, so badass*o*
but why did the federation suits not return fire when they are only partially disabled? I swear most of them may still be operational. Is there some kind of ethics in combat or was it just cowardice? or both?

5/5

Although they had deliberately look original, dubbing done in my language is good, I like it.
Technique and excellent animations, well that CG is a little intrusive.
Plot still beautiful to me, from the narration sound good.
Back Riddhel again, I hope Banagher, the deck face the stars and stripes! XD
Micott has found its way? WOW
Some references escape me, I hope to understand them as soon as possible.
Overall an OVA crazy, it was a long time since I felt so strong emotions, I am satisfied! * w *

That damn bitch Micott!! It's all her fault. And Mineva that was a bitch move too revealing the location after Banagher trusted you. Why can't Full Frontal and Banagher work together? They would make such an awesome team.

Riddhe was very impressive at the end there, the Banshee is powerful but it takes a lot of skill to pilot it properly.

Oh yeah. I hated when the captain of the nahel argama basically said fuck you to the neo zeons. What the hell was that!?? It was their fault, they should have taken responsibility. And yet they turn on them? Bullshit. That's probably the one thing I really didn't like in this show so far.

Another good thing from this episode was the conversation on the bridge with Banagher, Frontal, and Mineva. I always love those scenes in the gundam verse. They're always amazing.

Are you serious? That was the best bit!! It's been time for a while that someone put Angelo in his place. He's hands down the most irritating character in this show. His distorted face when the Captain screamed at him and revealed his operation was worth a 5 star rating by itself.

Mineva was trying to win time by revealing the location. In any case, I get the feeling that Laplace's Box is not really a physical object that one can just take like that. she's probably aware that Banagher needs to be present for it to be revealed. At least that's my speculation.

I get the feeling that Vist woman is going to unleash some very nasty weaponry for the finale. Something in the Colony Drop class.

Yes she is without a doubt.

This episode was great. I really enjoyed the dialogue this episode. There is no side that's truly right. Banshee appearance at the end was epic as hell. Can't wait to see that battle. Man I just love Gundam Unicorn.

Amazing episode!

Even though there was not a lot of action scenes. At least Full Frontal revealed what he plans to do for the sake of humanity. Though Char's fate of humanity was already lost by the time Char's Counterattack happened.

I love how they referenced Char's Counterattack when Axis was dropped. They should have showed Char and Amuro being stuck there as a nice reference.

I think Full Frontal is just continue what Char failed to do in Char's Counterattack. Instead of asking them to change for the sake of humanity, we make them change through force.

Though i think Mineva was stupid for giving La+ coordinates so easily like that. They could have delayed it and let Full Frontal play the catch up game. Now they have the lead for the Laplace box.

At least Full Frontal showed his true face to everyone as compensation. I love how Full Frontal"If Char is still alive he wouldn't no longer be human" pretty much referencing himself as Full Frontal.

Guess Riddhe vs Banagher and Full Frontal will be the final battle.

Final Episode is upon us! Can't wait for the final episode! Will watch EX - 100 Years of Solitude for recap before the final one :)
