Yes, it was definitely the song which they used in episode 9.

Are you forgetting how Char is such an iconic figure in the franchise due to his characterization? And some outings like MSG, Zeta, CCA, 08th MS Team, 0080, 0083, Unicorn and even SEED & 00 are heavy with characterization? Sure, the anime is used to promote gunplas but don’t ignore what’s actually in the story.

If you want to regain your faith in Gundam franchise’s characterization, feel free to watch their most recent OVA, MS Gundam: The Origin .

Anyway, nice to hear that Exodus did well. I just hope it's true.

Aah, Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket is one of the most tragic story ever in Gundam series.

There're so many death flags that I don't know who will die first but at least death count until episode 9 is 1 .

Yes, I think she was just lost her consciousness or in near-death state. So far, the casualties are from Neo UN people since episode 1.

About the wound, maybe it's something kind of red liquid spilled from Nibelung system?

As for Gundam Build Fighters, those are meant to be fun lighthearted series which is also a giant ad for Gunpla and Sunrise never shy about it which makes it totally enjoyable (at least for modeller like me ). Gundam AGE & Destiny.........well.....the less you mentioned them the better.

I hope if they do decide to make another season after this, it will set generations after Exodus so that Xebec will have an excuse to use better character designer than Hirai .

It's strange that I'm able to recognize Hirai's characters, LOL. Yeah, I agree that many of his characters looked similar to his other works (Kira Yamato from Gundam SEED ~ Akira Nishio from Soukyuu no Fafner), but I still can recognize them.

I do not think much like not.
I Athrun and Kazuki, more like.
Kira Yamato in a more modern designer

The creatures of this series have quite fascinating behavior...


Decent episode although action wasn't as good as last week imo

[dark998]

Took 10 episodes to finally defeat one of the Azazel-types. Not fully destroyed because its core managed to escape but hey, a victory is a victory.

And now the Exodus part of the title has meaning, can't wait to see the last two or three episodes. No doubt Xebec will keep the high quality standard presented so far and maybe even raise the bar a bit more.

I assume core was assimilated - eaten - afterwards, so we are not going to see that particular abomination again. Unfortunately, thing we are going to see will be far worse...

[Ghiest Cid]

Definitely an exodus, there is even a 'holy item' being transported.

[Sec]

Just watched the new episode. The boss appeared and I'm really scared about Soshi's monologue in the end. I don't want to lose anyone .

I remember they stated in the official website that this's a 26-episodes series. Maybe they will split it in 2 cours with a plot twist or cliffhanger. =.= I don't know I like it or not but that trend is really spreading since Code Geass in 2007. I miss the days we could watch a whole series without waiting 3 or 6 months for a new season.

I agree, I think Kazuki is more like Athrun with his long hair. As a fangirl, I don't know I like his short hair or long hair more but Soshi's definitely got a better design (and characteristic) than the previous season.

Anyone likes Kazuki x Canon and Soshi x Maya?

[Terrestrial Dream]

This is one show where it doesn't mind killing few people, at least in the original.

Rey wants to pilot Mark Sein, that should be fun to watch fun.

They are just headed for the south eastern base so if it is 26 episode then that might be the remaining episodes till end of this season and the rest would be travel to the promised land I mean destination. It is more likely the human army has a trap for them at the base.

Yes, Kazuki is much more similar with Athrun. What I mean is Kira and Akira. They looked similar in my eyes.

But, it's not Fafner if there are no casualties .

Yeah, I like those pairings. Soushi even once had said that Kazuki should apologize to him too since Maya always said thank you to Kazuki, instead of him (because he often made her cried, LOL). And back to the previous episodes, Kazuki joked to Canon about he wanted to leave Tatsumiyajima without permission. But I don't know whether they will finally confess about their feeling each other or not.

No doubt, since Mark Sein was originally co-developed by his father.

Yes, I know it's not Fafner if there are no casualties. I should go prepare my heart , but let's hope that it won't turn out like Right of Left (I remember I cried a lot while watching it ending ). But they all made it alive in Heaven and Earth, maybe we can put a little hope in there.

By the way, Soshi and Seri could make a good couple to since he tried to be thoughtful and asked what she wants for her birthday, but she has Hiroto . I really like Soshi more than the previous season, he's now a brother icon for all pilots.

I'm interested about what Mitsuhiro will do since he's the type that will trade his own life (and maybe his relationship) to save humankind. But too bad, Rey isn't the main character (since Gundam Seed Destiny ).

Looks kinda like a Master-type Festum, or is it a type we haven't seen before? Either way this abomination will be scary as heck.

[Tiberium Wolf]

It's probably an Azazel Type. My take is since he saw one severely injured he took advantage and absorbed it to increase his power.

Yep and I think next episode was called Transformation or something like that so I'm getting the feeling were seeing it sooner rather then later.

It was a great episode and we finally got some comments on whats going with a few different people (I liked what Soushi said about Maya crying on his shoulder but thanking Kazuki) still have no idea whats going on with Miwa's mom, seems very likely shes like Soushi/Kazuki at this point (part festum) but we shall see.

[HunterSeeker]

Determined to return to the forum after probably a few years......

Just watched the episode. "Horrifying" is an understatement.

Spoiler:

Sui and Rina got some funny moments......Until the Fridge Horror comes in. Having your Fafner's power becomes uncontrollable AND activiated even when not piloting is not fun. At all.

And then the last few minutes......HOLYSHITWHATTHEFUCKISGOINGONWITHTHEM! ?!?!?!?

[Stark700]

Despite the seriousness of the episode (well, with that ending anyways), this one had probably the most humor as well...

[dark998]

Not gonna lie, I enjoyed all the comedy and fanservice but things sure got very serious at the end. Hopefully the cost of those awesome perks won't be higher than the benefit.

[Ghiest Cid]

That is embarassing. At least one pair has progress and ...approval . One thing though they would be in separate class from other non pilot teens.

[Key Board]

very good episode

price has its power

[bahamut zero]

there is no way they can resolve all this in 2 episodes x__X
