I like to imagine that he was told it was told it was going to be an easy posting and he planned on spending all his time on the beach. Then the show happened.

It was just weird that the bad guy wanted to die, but it had to be in a specific way.

I saw it as an extension of the type of character who really wants to be killed by a better swordsman etc, only they're a robot. And if you're a robot, you have to go boom.

I’m assuming so- Smith merged with the extra horny Death Drive so that would explain where he got all of that knowledge as well as why he was speaking about Isami in very sexual ways (and the fact that Smith wants to gently caress Isami probably helps as well)

I'm wondering if Bravern (and the printer etc) is the 8th piece of the mothership (as mentioned in episode 2). We have the 7 pillars and robots but that leaves one more that landed. Or it could just be an error in the subs and it's 8 pieces, 7 of which landed on Earth. That would still leave the question of where Bravern physically came from, though.

Seems pretty clear to me though that Cunus, Smith and the remains of his mech fused together and used her spacetime stuff to loop back.

I still want to know where the hyperdimensional 3d printer came from.

I am going to be so disappointed if the series doesn't end with Bravern proposing to Isami while trying to hold a normal rear end wedding ring in his giant gundam hand.

Would Bravern wear a tuxedo or get a new paint job?

Yes.

Also, yes.

But which one? Can the printer manage a suit? Or would he just prefer a snazzy new coat of paint?

Friend, are we even watching the same anime? It's Bravern! It's both!

BRAVE TUXEDO!

And a new snazzy coat of paint to go along with it.

Oh right, he's going to print more robot pieces that will make it look like a new suit.

Sure, why not, what's one more genre added to the pile?

Oh no they made it weird.

Guess I'm wrong for once - there was a double time loop, but beyond that, I'm full of poo poo about who looped, why, and when. Never been happier to be dumb.

Outside of the weird bit, some really good gags - the I <3 ROBOTS shirt and the ga-ga-pi subtitles switching absolutely got me.

I have not seen alternate-future Superbia doing sword maintenance mentioned anywhere, but I died at that.

I didn't recognize the first voice actor, but I sure recognized the second. Turns out I've even heard both in the same show!

Is it 12 or 13 episodes? I hope it's 13 and then the rest of the cast arrives with their TS forces and the fleet to back up Superbia while whatever shenanigans with Bravern play out.

I thought I read that it was confirmed as 12, but I'm honestly not sure how they can do it in just one more episode.

Nah, Isami saying that they have love and passion is just them being good friends.

I would have been ok with Isami and Smith going on a date during the credits. They tour the hangar bay filled with the 3d printed models and Smith is pointing out which shows they're from.
