Also, I wonder if this means the other Gundams have secret double functions too. TRANSFORM. Other than Kyrios I mean.
Kyrios had the claw, Dynames had the missles. only one who hasn't shown any secondary abilities yet is the Exia.

I thought the way the new stripped down virtue handled the situation was pretty gay. That pose...... the had to be the most sexually ambigious way to kill someone.

great episode nonetheless. This is pretty much what i want to see every episode.

So how in the world did Sergei plan to restrain Virtue but not restrain Kyrios on the ship? Didn't he figure that the pilot might wake up and try to get out the ship and access his weapons? Looked like sloppy writing to me. Also, why did they stop attacking once Virtue lost it's outer armor? There were so many plot devices it's not even funny. Too many plot shields for Celestial Being. By mid-episode there was no tension whatsoever. I knew the Vice-Commander was going to die once he went after Kyrios, since Kyrios can survive a whole ship blowing up while it's inside it. Celestial Being comes out unscathed, again. Way to artificially lengthen the show. I'm dropping this show. I'll watch it once the batch torrent comes out.

You want CB to lose and be taken as a joke by the rest of the world? If the Gundam secret is reveal by a simple attack, CB will lose all of its previous generations' pride and efforts. It's not like CB won victoriously or anything. What do you mean 'artificially lengthen'?

This coupled with the fact that he has problems with his own gender.

Like:

Male? Female?


Strip (from GN-005 to GN-004)naked infront of everyone?

Its like he feels that he is too weak, being forced to reveal his secret to survive.
Tieria is a Futa.

The Gundams are just so overpowered compared to their enemies. The Gundams didn't get out of their bad situation by using tactics or expertise, they just threw in another ability like Virtue's ability to lose it's outer skin, Kyrios can slice through whole ships without a scratch. For matter how many times a Gundam gets hit it comes out undamaged. Gundam 00 is turning out to be a super robot show where the Gundams can destroy whole armies and leave only their arch rivals like Soma Graham and Ali who have their custom mobile suits. It's like Madlax and Noir where all the enemies miss their shots with the main characters standing there while firing shots that connect every time.

That's what I've always hated about Gundam. It's always about the stupid giant robots that look like samurai armor rejects while the characters are subordinate to the inanimate machines. I'm sorry, I can't develop sympathy for the Gundam machines themselves. It's like if a western country made a series with Challenger tanks, Abrams tanks and Leopard tanks and made them the centerpiece of the show and not their crews. Gundam 00 is just all about how "cool" the Gundams look and the stupid transformations and weapons they have.'

We're 10 episodes in and I don't give a flip about anybody. They could kill Sergei, Graham, Setsuna, Marina, all of Celestial Being next episode and I wouldn't shed a tear. It's episode 10 and you've failed to make me feel sympathy for any character. Gundam 00 writing staff, you have utterly failed.

Just watched the raw and wow.

Those Tierens really know how to dodge an attack

Did anyone else found themselves rooting for the HRL?

Soma shows us that while she's an enhanced soldier, she still has feelings and wanted to go back and help the sub commander. She also performed well against Virtue. Do Tierens have variable rifles that can readjust its settings? Her gun was literally pounding Vritue's shield and she was holding it with both hands instead of one.

Apparently you missed the part where it was blantatly stated that the gundams in 00 have the capability to take on entire armies. As the Union and HRL pointed out, the gundams are practically decades ahead of them.

So...why are you watching 00 then? I hated Destiny so I stopped watching that.

Ok from what I seen this is nothing like super robot show, because if this was a super robot show there would be no tactic what so ever and remember that 00 grunts could actually aim and hit their targets. It's just that the Gundams have superior technology which enables them to win. So they do have explanation why these Gundam are able to win and come out without being damaged so much. The Gundams do have some super robot quality but they are somewhat explainable.

Ok then don't watch Gundam anymore if you don't like it, and what do you want them to do? Make the Gundam ugly and make them have generic and ugly weapon or something? Here's the thing, they need to sell model for these Gundam, and I really doubt people will buy an ugly ass model as much as cool looking model. And I think you are kinda flaming since you seems to be nitpicking.

Again, why do you watch Gundam then T_T Seed/Desinty were basically the same as this. They didn't ''threw'' in Virtue's ablity; you missed the part where everyone was complaining where was 004. It was obviously planned.

You also miss the part where the Ryumin stated herself that the Gundam were IDEALS while the meister are not. Yah, the writer knows the gundam are powerful. I think it would be ridiculous if CB were to declare interventions with half-baked mobile suits. Who's to take them seriously?

I'm not a G00-lover but your points are just...

Maybe Exia can clip all 7 of his blades together into one giant Bustersword like Cloud did in Final Fantasy Advent Children?

Kyrios is actually restrained with metal bar or whatever it's called in the ship. It's just that the restrain doesn't work and Kyrios gets out
