They blew up the moon, what the gently caress are you talking about? They even upgraded burning so that it can pull blow-up-the-moon level attacks AT WILL. Build strike just punched things super hard and fenice was just a fancy wing gundam piloted well; the power escalation in this compared to the first season is insane.

everythingWasBees posted:I thought it had something to do with the fact it hadn't been tuned up or even repaired since Sekai found it. Even at damage level B it's still gonna take a beating. That would have been a thing if they actually drew attention to it and now one that actually saw the previous Burning at worlds comments on any apparent degradation of performance, they just went "Oh thats a world class suit how awesome" The burning at most had something hooked to its back before and that thing could be what made it stronger, but in actual performance the show made it clear that it couldn't keep anymore after being fixed and even tuned.

The blue is from a spray booth accident when he was 8 years old. It also ruined Yuuma's vision.

Unless China has another brother of the same age who nobody ever mentioned... The real answer is that once you become a protagonist you get a protagonist design. It's a natural part of anime puberty.

The first time I remember seeing it was, uh, one of the lady characters in Fighting Vipers on the Saturn.

It's to distract people from noticing that she's secretly Lili from Tekken with Meijin sunglasses. Kinda like how nobody notices that Clark Kent is Superman with glasses and slightly different hair.

I have to say "China has two brothers of the same age, they just never appear onscreen together and she never mentions one of them" feels a bit more of a stretch than "they redesigned the character when they decided to make him a protagonist."

Fair enough. I disagree. I don't see that it's beyond plausible that someone can only mention one of their siblings if only one of them is relevant to a given conversation or situation, regardless of whether they have another sibling. So China only mentioning one of them because only one of them cares about Gunpla at the time makes sense to me, regardless of how close in age another sibling might be. Especially given that even that sibling only made mention or appeared a couple of times for a few seconds total in the entire show. If you're going to posit that they retconned his appearance, why find it strange that they may just have retconned her family tree to include a whole new brother? Whether he appeared in the original makes no difference to his character after all.

Because when they were promoting the character when the show came out they specifically mentioned he had already appeared in the original BF.

The two girls with the Lacus/Meer hair decorations in the audience after the Tryon 3 fight were a nice cameo. There were a bunch of others in that crowd shot but they were the ones that jumped out at me.

Not that everybody didn't already know this but the boxart for the Star Winning confirms that it has a 1/144 transformation. The V-Fin is hilarious.

It looks so loving massive when on a regular head and not on an SD. I hope it doesn't show up in the next episode but I'm expecting it to since there isn't a good place to pop it up unless they subvert a lot of expectations. If it doesn't show up in next episode then we can assume that its being used on the finals or something unexpected is going to happen in either Junya's or Sakai/Lucas match.
