Mobile Suit Gundam 00 Second Season - Episode 3 Discussion / Poll

[Sordes Pilosus]

Kyrios is also the "least advanced" suit of the 4 original cundams. While Kyrios was a powerfull fighter it offered very little uniq about it. Kyrio's main feature in big battles was its Bombing feature. Not before it was equiped with Tailbooster did Kyrios really becomme a dangerous fighting machine overall. Kyrios was a support craft capable of moving from Melee to Midrange battles after performing its bombing runs. So they captured the suit that offered the "least amount of information". Had they captured Exia they would have gotten Superior Close Range combat weaponry, with Dynames ultra longrange precission devices, with Virtue massive cannons. While some of this is stil present options but generaly after the GNX it was very little "vital" left in the original gundams, even repaired they wouldent be much better off then current suits. The Exception is probably only a Fully Repaired Exia, since Exia would stil defeat the suits shown to us today in any close range fight. While however Exia was extremly poor in Midrange to Longrange battles which would mean close range fighting wouldent have happened anyway, but Exia would have been the far superior suit simply because its main design was "Anti Gundam" and its longrange weakness made up for incase it got captured.

HRL's Tieren seems to be still used, since they have the ability to form iron walls. Pity the operator was killed by falling debris larger than itself.

the GNX powered suits are still expensive only given to elite units in the federation and the A-LAWS. Conventional suits would still be in use in Fed units in the various member nations.

I hope the GNX squads don't become cannon fodders like the Zaku and Goufs in CE.

The GNX from season 1 really kick the Gundam's ass and I loved it.

I hope that does'nt happen. But with MaskMan,Soma or perhaps err...Patrick & Louise on A-Laws side,the Meister will have some hard time.

But from current understanding of CB technology, it is definitely not ridiculous.

I also think Aeolia mind transfer is a bit of a stretch, if they do it, I hope they done it in a way that won't make it feel like a copout or cheap. I have nothing against mind transfer, it's just I don't think Aeolia is that kind of person. at best, he'll resurface as an AI inside Veda or something.

I do think mind transfer will happen between Innovator though. they might even have hinted it. we see in this episode that Regene seem to have telepathic or mindlink with Ribbons when Regene talk to Ribbon about Ryumin. and they are all connected to veda, so mindswap is definitely plausible.

now I just need to figure out why Innovator comes in pairs, any speculation with that?

You still can't tell when I'm making a joke can you?

No we can't, I thought that would be obvious now.

Seriously no offense, but you suck at making jokes.

Yeah I know. I should be more forceful and include more memes and deliberate misspellings and then people might actually pick up on them.

Not quite what I was thinking of, but meh, at least you get the point that you should try something different.

Good episode. Sumergai Lee Noriega actually studied the situation and came up with a plan! And it worked! I almost fainted in shock. And Allelujah is back. I missed him. The only thing missing now is to see Graham in action and to see how Billy handles the loss of his main squeeze.

One nitpick: I hate this new thing where they put a bit of story after the ending theme. It makes me watch the preview for the next episode by accident, and I hate doing that. I want to be surprised!
