alright... gotta be honest, i was not impressed at all. this was VERY average in my opinion.

Spoiler for meh:

i am SO disappointed! the fight scenes were pretty awesome but thats about it.
this was essentially mecha porn. northing more and nothing less. if you like big fights between grunt suits you will love this but if you love the story behind gundam unicorn then this episode is essentially really just filler.

well, ok... to be fair, there was one awesome scene with banhager:

Spoiler for holy crap, what WAS that?!:

but that also raises a new problem for me, everyone was SO very different compared to the previous episodes!

Spoiler for meh: this was basically only about banhager whining and crying a lot. he doesnt do anything else. i can see how he tried to prevent killing more people but the way they did this was just ridiculous... during the second half the main battle between zeon and the feds begins. the feds are getting decimated but then the Byarlant Custom makes an appearance completely out of no where (we dont even see the pilot or ANYTHING about it) and starts kicking some ass. oh, and did you know that spychoframe energy can now color suits and mobile armors and create DBZ like auras around them that can push against each other? no? well, we have that now. they were pushing the whole newtype thing a LOT at the end. the unicorn also doesnt do anything at all. it launches, fired 5 shots in front of the shamblo to make its pilot stop and then he basically parked it in front of it to talk to her some more. we also had one of those stupid "coming out of the cockpit" moments again, i HATE it when they do that... then the shamblos pilor went berserk, NT-D activates aaaaand... the unicorn still doesnt do anything. it hops on top of the delta plus but banhager cant take the shot at the end because he doesnt want to kill anymore. so riddhe snags the beam magnum, takes out the shamblo and then bright wants him to make banhager give up the unicorn. BUT then we have our mandatory cliffhanger... the banshee appears and activates it NT-D right away. the end. i am SO disappointed! the fight scenes were pretty awesome but thats about it. this was essentially mecha porn. northing more and nothing less. if you like big fights between grunt suits you will love this but if you love the story behind gundam unicorn then this episode is essentially really just filler. well, ok... to be fair, there was one awesome scene with banhager: Spoiler for holy crap, what WAS that?!: before banhager launches in the unicorn he confronts zinnerman to stop the attack. he doesnt listen of course so banhager actually attacks him... and wins gloriously! first he jumps him and starts punching his face, zinnerman throws him off and picks him up by his normalsuit. but then banhager kicks him in the BALLS, zinnerman goes to the ground and then banhager starts to kick his face multiple times! that was probably my biggest WTF moment during this episode... but that also raises a new problem for me, everyone was SO very different compared to the previous episodes!
