Oh snap, the head came off! That was kinda unexpected.

Aila was adorable with that ice cream haha. I'm curious about her past though. Decent episode overall. I got some good laughs at that workshop. XD

The tag match was nice too, great chemistry between Reiji and Aila :3

Great to see Reiji and Aila getting to build and fight using gunpla they built by themselves!
So now 3 of the silhouettes have appeared already, 5 more to go....
We also have Tem Ray's house, Fran Doll, Kinue Crossroad, and Rinko humming gundam seed's first op.
Kept laughing when they were building gunpla. SIR YES SIR! Glad that Sei's father wasn't around when I opened my first kit...

Had so much fun this episode. I was grinning through out ^^

Aila is just tooooo cute <3...Her eating the Ice Cream was kawaii!

Lol'd how she started stalking Reiji and got dragged in by Sei's dad to help them build Gunpla's XD

His dad is so lol XD He's good at acting too. He should supposedly know who Reiji is if he was watching Sei's matches on TV but he acted like that XD

How Aila and Reiji kept comparing their work and getting Jelly of each other was so damn cute. These 2 need to hook up already >.<

Nice seeing Reiji realize how tough Sei's job is hehe ^^

Aila getting carried away and helping Reiji in the fight was nice. She was about to reveal how strong she is in Gunpla too lol. Her Pouting face was adorable :3
I really wonder how Reiji will react when he finds out her true identity? I hope it doesn't affect it much.

Sei's dad being a BA was lol and how he went to see Rinko but it was closed was lol
RIN-CHAN!! AISHITERUU!! XD

Geeze, Sei's Dad is quite the eccentric. Plus, I thought the mafiosa thing was stupid, but Sei's Dad is a Gunpla Cop? Whatev.

Also, how did Sei's Dad not think his Wife would go to cheer on their Kid who's made it into the the Gunpla World Finals? At first I thought he was either actually too busy to see Sei, or just a jerk, but now I see he is actually quite dense and single minded. I guess I know now that Sei didn't get his calm logic from his Dad. The Dad feels like he's more closely related to Reiji than Sei.

Ah, anime parenting

Hey son who idolises me, I'm gonna pop in to town having not seen (or skyped, or even phoned) you in apparently forever but not bother telling you. Then I can hang out with your BFF (who I know is your partner from the TV) and demonstrate what a cool guy I am then disappear again. Ah - but not before I leave a little keepsake to make sure you know I was in town and still couldn't be arsed to come see you.

I did find time to try and call in to shag your mum though lololol

What a f*****g arsehole.

I rarely post anywhere these days but as a separated dad this really hacks me off.

Love the series though, glad I gave it a chance especially after the abomination that was AGE. There are references on references and you can tell it's been made by a team that truly love Gundam and Gunpla to put in the effort.

I thought that was Fellini wearing a beard... In all honesty.
Why doesn't he go see his son? He's finally in town after 16 episodes...

HOLY SHIT, MAO FIGHT NEXT EPISODE, CAN'T KEEP MY PANTS ON.
Really kicking off this final championship with a bang I see, supposing Nils will be the second fighter. If we don't get a really intense brawl like we saw with Riccardo last episode then I won't know how to feel, but we've already gotten two great Mao fights so it's no biggie.
I'm hoping they start out the championship with a Meijin, Aila, Nils, Riccardo, or Luang fight and finish the episode off with the start of Mao vs Sei because they really didn't reveal all that much and neither suit looked scratched up.

But enough of preview talk, this episode was a gracious way of filling out the series whilst showcasing Sei's father for the first time.
I actually appreciated Aila here, she was pouty as usual but atleast she wasn't terrorized by the mere sight of gunpla like the previous couple episodes.
I was hoping for an emotional scene in which the father realizes Reiji was Sei's partner in the tournament but it seems the keen bastard knew all along.

I feel like this is the first real sign of character development for Reiji. Well, outside of the transition from cheesy shounen stock to a worthwhile deuteragonist that happened in the first four episodes. I'm hoping he applies this newfound respect towards the effort Iori put into making the Star Build Strike and watching as it's demolished time and time again.

I'm hoping we either never see the gunpla mafia again in this series, or they actually delve into an arc focusing on them, I mean, we can't have it both ways.
Did Sei's father say he was a tournament referee? I'm hoping to see him be the impartial judge to seal the duo's fate when it comes down to it, for better or for worse. I mean, it goes without saying we're going to have a match where he gives them a relatively low score just to show he's not playing favorites.

We didn't really get any cameos this episode now that I think of it, eh.

Such a fun episode. Nice Reiji x Aila moments. Plus, the fact that they were being taught building by Sei's dad? (who turns out to be pretty epic himself?) Win.

Like the assistant said, "There's no point anymore outside of the official tournament"
He's just there because of his pride. He just wants to beat Reiji in a match.

I really enjoyed this and I laughed at the beginning with the head falling off, seems like Sei is gonna have a fun time rebuilding it but then he could just reattach it using a head joint PC-0 part.

Wonderful scenes at the Gunpla stores Sei's appearance and his teachings to Aila and Reiji on building their first Gunplas. Nice tag battle for the two of them against that agent 'C' of the Mafia. The way how Sei's dad caught him was well initiated.

So they have the battle with Mao in the next round, can't wait to see their styles in battle in the next episode!!

5/5

It's because people stop trying to help you because you keep ignoring them and repeat the same crap which is annoying.
Also some are your questions are impossible to answer correctly due to lack of information and only can be answered by WAITING FOR THE NEXT EPISODE OR SO.

Ahem, dunno what's going on.

For those who are complaining about gunpla police and mafia and how silly it is, what about Mao's school?

LOl, I remember when the tourney director first mentioned "C", I thought, "WTF, he's sending assassins?!!? Hold on hold on, it's a toy tourney!" Then I realized he was just covertly getting involved with the battles. "Oh..." It's all about cheating for PROFIT!

NOW! To my fanbratting -- THAT DAD! And Reiji and Ailia struggling with their model building. LOL! And that lovely mom too!
