Sounds like he could be faking it, but hopefully. not.
I hope they're on the same side.

Graham has already had his duel with Setsuna, the love/destiny/hate he had for the Gundams is gone.

I always looked at the line as a possible scene where Graham jumps the gun on a mission and takes on the enemies.

[Har0]

Yeah, maybe you are right GN0010 Nosferatu, love your avatar by the way.

I do wonder where he gets then though, he changes them quite often ad well.

Speaking of 00Q, Im speculating for now that the main sword will handle small and mid size beams, the ones that need to be shot quickly and repeatedly [and beam saber mode] while the shoulder mounted beam cannon handles the large powerful beams, the that requires less accuracy and not used as repeatedly.

Such a big beam would be ideal for taken out big ships or carriers and when you say beam sabre mode do me like the risor sword?.

You think the sword bits will also be able to fire smaller beams or will they just be a bunch of flying swords that fly around slicing things?. I can't seem to spot any barrel on the sword bits from the images i have seen.

I was thinking the samething, that the GN sword green blade doubles as the beam rifle. As for the bits I'm leaning towards a no because I don't think they could transfer that tech to bit form. But u never know.

Another note: Zaba sniper bits seem to have no defensive capabilities. Do yall think its 'wings' will shoulder all the defensive weight???

I would say it could go either way I haven't seen anything to confirm it but they haven't shown the the sword bits doing anything other then launching so who knows.Also there might be hidden features too that don't appear in the movie like the GN Buster sword which had an additional rifle and beam sabre mode.

When I say big, I mean the ones generally regarded as heavy which would included that.

And by beam saber mode, Im not just referring to the Raiser Sword but the usual GN Swore Beam Saber mode as well. For the moment, it can be assume that 00Q has no traditional beam sabers without breaking the 7 Sword threshold which they iconicallu like so much so Im speculating that it's intergrated in at least one of the swords.

For the moment, I do not see any barrels on the Sword Bits either, so I do not see them being of beam fire capable as of now.

For the moment that appears to be the case unless they have the ability to fly around. We do know that they can reallign themselves to more like Dynames GN Full Shield as well so that seems to be a hint. Probably will not have any handguns or beam sabers as the previous anti beam blade on the handguns are now on the rifles.


I'm also interested on Harute's defence mechanism this time around, whether it will revert to the GN Field or whether it will retain it's beam shield like Arios.

What my avatars? Where do I get them?

Lol, it's really not all that hard, I just nicely ask The Chaos, I provide her the footage and time frame, and she makes em. She's really talented at it too.

As for the Quanta Cannon (I call it that), I had a small idea that the new GN Sword transforms into a barrel, and attaches to the shield. Using condenser material would be pretty conductive for beams if you think about it.

[SonicSP]

Its usually hard to form beams outside of cannons structure with a structure thats too open, and the Condensers are GN to Heat Converters in the swords mainly.

[Butagami]

I don't think the sword bits will have any ranged weaponry. Rather than that, I think they can serve as a focal point for 00Q to quantize to. Setsuna could have his swords spread out and teleport to them for some quick slice-n-dice work. Imagine the shock for the enemy. Omnislash anyone?

[GundamMeisterLockon]

Well sonic said that its possible for the new GN sword to generate a beam sabre and I would think the sword bits can do the same, since they are made out of the same condenser material. So if the swords bits can generate a beam sabre then I would think they could generate a beam as well which can be used to take out targets from mid range atleast. Well it won't be a beam exactly, it will be like a extending beam sabre which extends out to hit its target if you get what i mean.

[Sinzz]

i dont know if this was posted here.. but i'll spoiler it since its a biiiig picture. and i didnt have time to crop out zabanya and harute's linart since im at school.

Spoiler for Raphael's back:

it seems that Raphael's foldable chest is hiding a face!.. and is that red thing in his chest the location of his GN-Drive?

i wonder if the other side of that chest piece is flat. we're only missing now what the face would look like, what the chest looks like, and if the thing has hands holding the bazookas or if the seravee bazookas are its hands

[SonicSP]

Yeah we've got that posted before. It does add to the mystery however.

Of course, we still do not know whether it's an entirely new MS altogether. Other possibilities still exists. For all we know Raphel uses it to transform into something rather than seperating into something else. Alot is possible at the moment.

[GN0010 Nosferatu]

They claim Raphael's secret ability is "unfathomable". I guess we can kinda take it from there.

Which is why I suspect some sort of nanomachine regenerative ability. That would be "unfathomable".

[Butagami]

When I first saw Raphael, I wondered what would be the point of those GN-bazooka II's on it's back, but now I see they're probably able to slide under Raphael's arms, sort of like the blast impulse could. Thnx for the pic!

[GN0010 Nosferatu]

Idk if slipping under the arm would work, I don't believe they're built to work that way.

But..ya never know, it is a new Gundam after all, so anything is possible.

[console65]

It's funny. "Raphael" means "God heals". He's an Archangel known for his benign nature.

Tieria ain't going to be doing much healing in Raphael Gundam with all the artillery it has.

You may be onto something there. Fits the name.

But you'll have to admit that makes more sense than them just firing downwards.

Such is the irony of Gundam 00.

Yes your right. Thats Turn A untouchable territory.

Yes he will, he's going to heal the world of the enemies his fighting, as far as he sees it.
