But I think it's interesting to think that you have a guy like Flit who is determined to fight the UE. He's had to prove himself to a more experienced pilot like Woolf. And he's still dealing with a friend like Emily who's constantly worrying about him thinking that he's still just a kid. And now all of a sudden, the captain of the battleship that's fighting the UE practically says he needs Flit. Flit should have been happy that he's being officially recruited and that his talent is being recognized/appreciated for once. But instead, Flit hesitated to shake his hand. Perhaps the conflict in Fardain is starting to make Flit think of collateral damage in war. You can even factor in Yurin who may or may not be part of the UE. If she is, Flit might be caught in between Yurin and Grodek. Again, I'm not saying that any of this is actually going to happen. Still, for a guy who's willing to jump into a mobile suit to fight the UE despite everybody else thinking he's just a kid to be hesitant in the face of recognition... We might have something here. Or I'm just overanalyzing the scene. |

Not at all. I also think that scene was significant. I interpret the hesitation as Flit's uncertainty whether his personal goal is compatible with Grodek's. Both seek a similar end, but Flit's not sure whether motivations from personal revenge is a good thing. He also lost a loved one, but that's not what drives him.

I think Grodek offering his hands to Flit is some sort of trying to confirm if they are on the same level of understanding. Offering hand come off as, "I am formal with you on this, so I am talking to you like you are also an adult" kind of thing.
Thinking about it, there are other ways for this too, the "look directly to the eye" confirmation or the more cheesy "pinky wear" approach. Last edited by kakakka; 2011-11-23 at 11:23. Reason: removing unnecessary words |

We've seen Flit accept a handshake offer from Woolf, and one can arguably interpret Yurin's gift as a similar sign of establishing understanding and trust. Those didn't seem all that much out of place, either. But his hesitance towards Grudek is very interesting, indeed, considering he's the most powerful person he knows at the moment.

This Gundam kinda reminds of the old anime I used to watch as a kid. The way it was drawn is pretty much the same. It's kinda nostalgic.
So Flit got into some trouble this time, but he worked it out as usual. Wonder who & what those aliens are..

Episode 7-- Dinner with the enemy.
Well, as expected Flit gets captured, but they aren't gonna lay a hand to him; that would ruin the bargaining process. Anyhow, the federation isn't good enough to combat the UE alone, so they will need to find other ways. The highlight of this episode was definitely the Emily protest into mecha fight. Fun stuff. 7/10
