It's also funny that you call Rasengan cool, because in Naruto forums the line "Rasengan? Again?" is common. Also Shining Finger is just like Build Knuckle except more unbelievable.

The syntax of this sentence is all messed up, so I'm not sure exactly what it means, but people don't have to say it's cool to think it's cool. It's generally th way of the world. Humans are sometimes more prone to express negative emotions over neutral/slightly positive ones, especially over the internet. Take for example the Twilight/Transformers. I think they're awful, but a whole lot of the population disagrees with me because of how well they sell.

nah that's just sarcasm from my part because you decided which one is majority or which one is minority
I'm just saying my opinion of which one I liked/disliked without involving other party of either majority or minority...

and the hard truth is, unless you have study to support your claim, your opinion and my opinion are just opinion from random dude on the internet
but I agree that the writer might not find it as annoying, doesn't mean other people won't find it annoying though

Moreover, think it's a hint to decider of the next battle? Roar, Build Knuckle?

During her fight against Felini, Aila could barely think enough of anything outside of fighting him to realize she was spearing his defeated mech. Clearly the Embody System isn't something the user can just take off, and she was only able to take off the helmet because the the Plavsky aprticle's "newtype moment" interrupted it.

And this is all assuming that the Flana Insitute guy didn't build in a feature that stops Yuuki from taking it off. The PSSE president knows Yuuki is a fair guy and wouldn't use the Embody System of his own will, so it's probably designed to essentially take over his mind and not let him think of taking it off.

Of course, we're all just assuming that those glasses are fitted with the Embody System. For all we know, the Flana Insititute guy was there for something else entirely regarding the match.

[Zephyron]

*thinks*

So, would it be right in thinking that Takeshi Iori was the 'first' to have inherited the 'Master Kawaguchi' title, only to have been ousted in the 2nd Gunpla World Tourney but the 2nd to inherit the name before Yuuki was the 3rd to have inherited the title?

Looking back at past episodes (and that the translation quality wasn't the best), I'm not sure if Yuuki is the 3rd Master Kawaguchi or the 3rd to have inherited the title of Master

[aeriolewinters]

That's Impossible because the First Meijin is a real person.

[Zephyron]

Yeah, that's what I'm confused about.

I'm sure the first is a real person, but 'becoming' the 3rd Master and being the '3rd to inherit' the title of Master is what's confusing me here

The start of the show and the talk Yuuki had with Reiji and Sei later in the show hints to Takeshi being the first to have inherited the 'Master Kawaguchi', at least that's how I see it

Maybe I'm overthinking things

[Death Usagi]

Just think of it simply.

First Meijin: Katsumi Kawaguchi

Second Meijin: Setsuna The violent Meijin who is in a comatose

Third Meijin: Yuuki Tatsuya

[Wild Goose]

It's simple:

Katsumi Kawaguchi = Meijin I

Coma dude = Meijin II, 2nd person to bear the name

Tatsuya Yuuki = third person to take on the name Meijin, is Meijin III.

edit: Ninja'd!

[ZeroXSEED]

First Meijin is a master builder who is also a nice guy who taught the fun of gunpla

Second Meijin is a ruthless fighter with mountain sized ego and worse attitude than Super Renato Bros

Third Meijin supposedly the one who balance the building and fighting aspect and restore the fun aspect of gunpla

[Zephyron]

Okay, sounds good to me :3

[Tormenk]

So does the Fenice Rinashita's revamped aesthetics remind anyone else of the gundams from S1 of 00? I thought of Exia R2 and Amazing Exia right away from Rinashita's lineart.

lol Super Renato Bros XD;;

I am surprised there isn't even a fanart of them being in Super Mario outfit

[widagtama]

2nd Meijin

Spoiler for from manga:

They guy that introduce Yuki to gunpla

[Side-streetdog]

I see dead people A LOT OF THEM!
And good to see all of them are happy.

Now I think next episode I think we might see "I'M GUNDAM!" again after so long.

[II Maestro]

^Oh now that's nostalgic seeing how Meijin is dressed up as Setsuna and his gunpla is based on Exia next would be his favorite phrase.

2nd Meijin is an old guy...

[Aurelis]

Have we seen an Amuro cameo yet? I especially loved the Lalah and Char scene.

And the upgraded Gundams for everyone looks really good. Except for Sei's. That upcoming Battle Arms kit looks pretty stupid

[Desruprot]

No one has mentioned the fact that the King of Hearts was animated for the first time , but then it was promptly destroyed so we have yet to see its full power. Among the plethora of gundam cameos.

For you to keep spouting the "vocal minority", I suspect you didn't visit 4chan, 2ch and didn't watch any of the livestream. That's hardly a minority. In fact, people only think it's cool in Felini match. I hardly see anyone fond of the RG Knuckle after that, if there ever one.

People on 4chan/2ch + rest of internet people = not necessarily majority.

Let's look at Episode 21 (Aila's Betrayal), for example on GundamInfo.

There are ~171000 views, and only ~1200 comments. Not even 30%(360) of the comments talk about how godawful Build Knuckle is.

Say I conclude that Build Knuckle is perfectly fine according to 170640/171000=99.7% of people.
Valid reasoning? It's not, of course, but it means that "a majority of people think Build Knuckle is awful" is very unlikely to be true.

Even if the comments are a perfect random sampling of the audience (which its not), that means that those who hate build knuckle are a minority.
