Spoiler for Episode 11 :

Yay, Yurin! This episode made her even more mysterious. We find out that she lost her parents and brother to the UE, and has trouble accepting the billionaire backer of Operation Ambat as her foster father. She gets a melancholy tune as her character song. Sigh, that butterfly sure reminds me of Lalah's swan.

What I also liked about this episode is that it gave us a few more tidbits about the AGE world. Apparently the 'Old National Wars' was a long, prolonged battle which divided the space colonies, with some, like Minsry remaining neutral to this day. We also finally get a mention of Earth! Interesting that they call it 'Old Earth'. This suggests that colonies are supposed to be replacement living space.

On the technical front, Diva was plugged into AGE system on Grodek's request. Maybe because a ship is less complex than a Gundam, but damn, AGE works fast. So, Diva's equalizer weapon is going to be a big-ass gun that's "better than hyper mega particle cannon that the Federation uses". Good to see that Emily's pitching in by suggesting Madorna to help out. But how in the world did Madorna manage to tag along with the Diva for two weeks? And oh, fast refit is fast. The sure can accomplish much in two weeks on a skeleton crew.
