For me it was an ok ep, a bit on the slow side, but at least it shows that there are some pilots who have the skill to fight a gundam.
Next week looks interesting, with Setsuna sitting at the exploding fountain and the loli pilot making her intro. ________ Toyota opa history Last edited by OMG_Zerg_Rush; 2011-03-21 at 15:18. |

I can pretty much sum up this episode with what I said about the second episode:

5 of 10 for me for this one...
1) Why does the Ptolemy exist if the gundams power *it* rather than vice versa? 2) I am getting pretty sick of these GG particles. 3) Once again, a third episode with barely any character development. Hallelujah and Tieria are clones for all intents and purposes, Setsuna's a mini-mi Heero, and Lockon seems to be the only guy with any semblance of personality. 4) The situation with Ireland is just laughable. If it were that easy, how come we still have insurgency in Iraq? >.< Also, Graham/Sergei finishing each other's lines over and over and over...what a whole load of meh.

I mean the director for 00 directed Full Metal Alchemist beautifully. And the script-writer for 00 had good dialogue in Infinite Ryvius. I hope this isn't due to some internal disputes between these two heavy hitters. |

The whole idea of "Make peace or ill shoot you" is so laughable I don't even know what to say about it. As a purely fantasy piece though ignoring the lame attempts at political commentary its quite nice to watch really well designed mechs blow stuff up...

Dramatic changes aren't impossible, just look at Libya. In certain volatile regions of the world, a tiny bit of disruption can lead to big changes in policy sometimes. Since we don't understand what's been happening in Northern Ireland around the time the CB showed up, its hard to call it "laughable". Perhaps they were already moving toward peace and the appearance of the CB just cemented it?

Well that's just the thing. We don't know the situations around the world. Say for example if the IRA leader was tired of fighting and wanted peace(Seriously I would be too if it went on for that long), CB just gave him the excuse he would need without much critisim. Though what did the professor noted during Saji's class? I don't trust the subs at this point. However, Saji was right in that the World was changing. All it takes is one spark which eventually leads to a bigger explosion. The IRA was just the first. Next episode we see an even bigger change with Taliva leaving the Union. No doubt the Union will allow that to happen. If one area secedes, then the others will follow. Quote:
They aren't going buddy buddy, this is more of a form of intimidation where these conflictors are trying to find comprimises with the other side to avoid getting spanked. Besides, they are still in the 3rd episode. That's like 3/25 of the way. At least we don't have to listen to those one liners at the end of the episodes. |

Except the way they set it up, it seems like everyone and their pet was up in arms, then a gundam shows up and ZOMG GUNDAMS! WE ARE NOT WORTHY! PEACE!
When we know that doesn't work anywhere near like that. Graham is pretty cool, I gotta admit...of course, he doesn't exactly scream ACE to me either. In Gundam Wing, Zechs DUNKED Heero's Wing Gundam in a LEO. So on the SOOPA ACE scale, Graham != Zechs.

well that opening was ...well extremely pathetic battle lasts less than a minute i knew the main character would win but they didn't even make it interesting don't use cliffhangers if you cant deliver
things are moving slightly fast which is good but the whole 400 year conflict being solved weeks after the gundams show up is absurd also just 3 episodes in and i want the main character dead hopefully once everybody else advances this series might get interesting but for now its gundams beating everyone easily |

It was an alright episode, there was some action, we get to see more perspectives on this. But i wonder when setsuna will actually have a personality and stop copying "Heero" Looking forward to next episode.
Btw, I can't believe the response Saji gave to Louise when she asked if he would study abroad next year, like her, and see if she's in his future. She's basically asking for him to study abroad so she can still see him next year(assuming she has to go back the next year and wants him to come with her, correct me if I'm wrong), and he goes "Kind of..??" Another thick headed charater....she's giving some sort of hint here. |

I think that is what Marina is there for. She'll probably give Setsuna a personality, but I hope she doesn't turn into another Relena Peacecraft. It is still confusing as hell for such a slow series that we don't even know where 00 is going.

Besides, also as I've said, occasions to stop fighting aren't hard to come by. The CB showing up isn't one of them, though. Quote:

But you need Gundam-level of firepower the way a fish needs a bicycle. It's not like the government doesn't already have overwhelmingly more firepower than the terrorists who rely on stealth. It's just the wrong battlefield for it. Quote:

I'm really hoping with a little more time and tech-planning (inwhich Graham seems quite capable of) he'll have a better showing...His persona is too savvy and adventurous for him to be a grunt in skills for much longer, but with that said it's very easy to go from Char to Jerid if you get pwnd too much by the main Gundam...

Eitherway, it's still too early to know exactly what CB's true goals are anyways. |

Whether it's realistic isn't really all that important. What is important is that the creators are seemingly solving a complicated problem with a pat solution - one that doesn't really make any sense to boot. It's a hallmark of poor writing, and if it's overdone, it can threaten the thematic thrust of whatever they're trying to accomplish.

I was expecting the Commander Tieren to give Exia a little bit more of a challenge, but it turned out to be a deja vu. It reminded me of the first time Kira fought a mobile suit, piloted by a not-so-grunty grunt.
I guess nothing can stand up to them as of it. Although I'd be vastly interested to see what new toys the world will come up with in the near future. And I just had to wonder what neutral-Japan have in stores. Will they be a second Orb? Hah! - Tak |
