Sounds too familiar with Astray

It IS the Astray, with an A in the end instead of an I (in terms of the katakana, of course--アストレイ vs アストレア).

In Greek mythology, Astrea or Astraea ("star-maiden") was a daughter of Zeus and Themis or of Eos and Astraeus. She and her mother were both personifications of justice. Astraea was the last of the immortals to live with humans during the Golden Age. As mankind became wicked, she was the last to stay on Earth, ascending to heaven to become the constellation Virgo; the scales of justice she carried became the nearby constellation Libra. She is also the symbol for the tarot Card Justice.

w00t to that.
We don't need any more Jesus Gundams.

The problem isn't that. It's the opposite, actually. Those stupid asses that allow the super suits to crush them without even thinking about how to counter is annoying. Thinh will different if they actually take their time to think about strategy against the Gundam, but all they do when seeing the Freedom is standing still and let him spam beam. After that, everyone forgets about him, even though he's a clear threat to them.

It seems that we have the 'official' name for the mysterious prototype Gundam which saved Setsuna, according to Setsuna 's profile from HG Exia, it is called 0 Gundam (pronounced as O)

holy crap. 0_o

I'm actually somewhat interested to see if they're going to release a model of that thing or if it was simply a reference.

aeriolewinters · 2007-10-13, 05:42

hopefully we get to see its pilot...

McChar · 2007-10-13, 05:55

lol 0 Gundam = easiest kitbash ever.

Hopefully, this doesn't mean that the 00 Gundam will be a Gundam Mk II lookalike though.

Yeah, hope someone will start up a new thread to discuss episode 2..
Ans someone who can kindly upload some juicy screenshots of episode 2..
The internet connection at my place takes ages to complete..sigh..

Ichimaru · 2007-10-14, 02:37

I think someone should make a gundam 00 discussion question/answers thread....

hey so far what do you guys think of the series? the characters personalities as compared to previous series characters??

Kite · 2007-10-14, 04:16

Watched Episode Two...I love how they turned Haro's into retarded R2-D2's. I'm loving the character designs and am waiting to see where the story is going.

More like inspired by UC's Haros... Notably Victory Gundam's Haro.

Jazzrat · 2007-10-14, 11:55

from a retarded pet to a retarded R2-D2, i think that's a good upgrade

Demongod86 · 2007-10-14, 13:02

It's better than an R2-D2. R2-D2 correct me if I'm wrong was just a navigator while this Haro actually pilots the Dynames partly!

Actually I think R2-D2 could pilot if it wanted to. It was also capable of making repairs to Luke's X-wing while in combat. The astro droids also helped with targeting, etc I think when connected to fighters. Not to mention that he could act solo and help out as shown in pretty much all the Star Wars films.

Demongod86 · 2007-10-14, 15:08

Apparently you can't win 'em all...R2-D2 = magical robot.

So Haro didn't start with Gundam SEED? Can anyone explain when Haro first appeared and what other series it's been in, and what the functions were?
