And now we know the political link too; the Queen's nation destroyed Setsuna's country.

Next ep, things return back to space (and protests against CB start)
Protest? Now?
One can argue that CB's been a major threat to all 3 powers from day one, and they are all doing their best to take it down. So what are the public protesting about?

I mean, it's not like CB's being ignored or anything. And if you get attacked by terrorists, by all intent you should be protesting against those who attacked you, not the attacker's enemies.

EDIT: The optic camo explains how the Gundams could evade Satellite surveillance while stored out in the open.

Wonder if the optical camo system is more comparable to Full Metal Panic's ECS (an array of oscillating lasers creating some sort of ray-dispersing shroud) or CE's mirage colloid. Knowing that Celestial Being's mechs largely rely on unknown properties of solar particles, I guess it'd be more like an MC than anything else.

Oh, and Omni's Blog has screencaps up. Summary is pending, though.

Yea, I found the underwater sabers thing to be a bit weird too. Someone explain to me the science behind that one

Not knowing the sequence of events in this one, we shouldn't be hasty to judge the scene yet. Although from the looks of things, Exia just stabbed the sabers, which would be ideal for such weapons in that situation.

The episode was ok until Setsuna decide to reveal his secret to someone he JUST met. I guess he is emotional/tense when it comes to war but come on!

Tieria might just shoot him in the next episode.

He stabbed with the beam daggers and used the beam sabers to slice the MA up.

Anyway, the physics of beam weaponry in this show is different from previous one. So previous rules from Seed don't apply here. So if beam weapons work, they work (just like they do in Wing).

Great to see that MAs are a mainstay in this universe too.

I've not watched it yet, that's why I asked.
However, I don't think it's the first one. Deathscythe did use its Beam Scythe underwater once.

Isn't beam in 00 universe can be disrupted? I thought because of this it won't work underwater....

All hail GN Particles

IIRC Garrod also used his beam saber underwater.
