Mobile Suit Gundam 00 - Episode 22 Discussion / Poll

[haqiang]

This episode is awesome, nuff said


But, is it me or that Exia's final attack on gundam zwei reminded me the Final Fantasy 7 advent children, the Limit Break Cloud used to kick Sephiroth's ass.

If you haven't understand the REAL power of the GN Drive is the one shown at the end by Exia, which greatly surpasses the fake GN-Xs.

I don't see how trans am mode proves anything. His point is still valid. All you proved is the original gn drives have unlimited power where as the gn tau drives have a set charge. The output is the same.

lol exia exia are you flamming

[Nvis]

This whole TRANS-AM mode thing reminds me of G Gundam's Hyper mode, Gundam Unicorn's special mode, what else am I missing?

[ThoHell]

LOL @ Trinity......they had it coming.

Ali is freakin wicked, I think he's the best opposing pilot.

Setsuna was wow, about time something cool happened. Nice turn of event, but completely over whelming! That's like inhuman and nothing can oppose that.....

Spoiler:

But it's entirely possible that she doesn't get the MA from the CB crew. Alejandro is probably still around, and he'd probably think that it'd be a wonderful opportunity to use a distraught/crazed Nena to create more chaos.

You know, based on the new Exia I've seen, this is all the more reason why i MUST HAVE AN MG EXIA MODEL!!!!! Wouldn't ya say? lol

[X207]

i hope nena keeps the drei, hopefully CB1 will find a way to recharge it if she does join up with them. if anything she'll be even crazier now bc ali killed her brothers. that'll probably put her into trouble.

The problem is not only there wasn't any suggestions that this will happen like someone said but there is the extra problem that the Thrones were Alejandro ace-in-the-hole (at least I think so) and the times for building new suits in this series.

Spoiler:

How would that even happen? She should be with the Celestial Being crew right now, she won't be randomly given to Alejandro. The only possibility would be Wong betraying them, but she hasn't even interacted with Alejandro since the halfway point of the series, so I doubt something like that could happen right now.

Alejandro would also get nothing from doing that. He seems to want the UN troops to win, to control Earth through the UN, so releasing some crazy MA in the battlefield to kill everyone, including UN troops, would do nothing to help furthering his agenda.

exia would be so badass with trans am mode and gn arms. i hope we get to see it eventually. ali will probably die in ep 24 or 25, it would be a shame if he didnt have zwei for more than a full ep.

[rpgkiller999]

Only problem with this episode:

Nena: OMG ali killed my brother, instead of using my gundam and step on that bastard I let him get back on the MS and kill my other brother too!

.........
yeah

[Morgun]

So team Trinity has almost completed their role as idiotic throwaway villains. Watch your back Nena.

Trans-am mode is great news for Graham: the director no longer cares about the effect of g-forces! Go, Graham, go! Nothing can stop him now!

And Lockon is living proof that the Meister's spacesuits are only for show. Being exposed to the cold vacuum of space is nothing to manly men.

[Klashikari]

This episode was quite interesting and thrilling in action.

However, many points were really out of the line to make it excellent/perfect in my eyes.

My first problem was how the thrones meisters were ridiculous. They were contacted by ali and didn't have much precautions, except Neena standing by in her throne gundam.
Michael's death was kinda for the "lulz", not exactly convincing (animator lazy part and quiz: where did ali shot Michael? no blood or wound whatsoever).
What is even surprising is the complete lack of proper retaliation: Johann sure could do the best he could, but instead of asking neena for help (either with a blunt hand swiper with the gundam or so), he basically asked her to run away... i mean, wait what?!

This is even more ridiculous when she is the floating duck, while Johann is raped by Ali, having fun instead of really obliterating Johann. Even if Ali is probably more experimented, Johann manoeuvres were mediocre and his actions were not really convincing. Finally, eins being destroyed like that was a bit too quick of a short work.

As for the rest, I don't have much complain (very logical back up plan from schenberg, amazing performance of Trans-Arm Exia, etc). It is a pity that the "helpless thrones" execution was more ridiculous instead of truely "helpless".
They were a nice "plot device" to stir the action and conflicts, but they were hardly good "villain" or "anti hero".


And just back about moderator duty:
As already stated in our thread guidelines, spoilers are NOT TOLERATED in weekly episodes threads! Rumors are included as well, though speculations are welcome.
Please use report button when you see such instance, but please do not clutter the episode with useless "no spoiler!" and such either.

How about maybe you actually practice what you preach?

Aren't you being hypocritical by spoiling everything yourself?

[jcexia]

So, I haven't seen the video yet, was it mentioned in the episode that Lockon lost an eye? or is he just wearing an eyepatch? Because if it wasn't mentioned, the eye patch could be temporary... ?

*sigh* so, talking about the episode is "spoiler"?
I think you didn't exactly understand one point: spoiler tags used when subs aren't out yet is a courtesy, not a mandatory, especially that after such fuss, people obviously speaking in daylight about that. (and i'm hardly the only one talking of the said episode without spoiler tags).

Spoilers in such instance are those which are posting points not revealed yet, like screaming "NAAADLEEH" , say... in episode 4.
That's why the guidelines say "future events".

Thread Guidelines

• Spoilers about future events must not be posted in this thread.

So, i'm afraid I'm actually following "what i'm preaching".

Talking about the episode inside the thread designated for said episode is not a spoiler in any shape or form. End of debate. (though i don't see what is there to debate about in the first place).

[X207]

i dont see this as spoiling either. once raws are out ppl will stop using spoiler tags. everything in the ep is free game after that happens. the best thing is to just avoid the thread.
