Looking at gginfinite's markup, I almost wonder if buying services end up cheaper. Probably something to ask the Gunpla thread if an interesting exclusive shows up.

Pretty cool episode. I am getting a bit confused on which ships belong to which factions though.

Well, they are professional soldiers, "May die during battles" is part of the job description. It also doesn't make sense for Bellri to not retaliate non-fatally if his skill as a pilot aren't that good for him to do so.

Well if this episode had proven anything it's that the people involved are far from professional in name, experience or competency.

It's Dorette. There's even a typo in the Japanese.
He's the namesake:

I think he only showed up when they introduced the Towasanga guys.

My favorite random characterization this episode was Rosenthal checking out Mask and liking what he was seeing.

Also he is huge.
And Barara is so teeny.

The only time I tried gginfinite they cancelled the order on me with no warning and no explanation, so gently caress that. But yeah, come to the gunpla thread, there's a lot more information there.

Was Noredo's first combat decision taking a potshot at the Knossos? "Let's see if I can kill more people than anyone else in this show at once."

She breaks character and disregards Bellri's condition to fire at the Knossos in her desperation to be useful, not unlike Aida at the beginning of the series.

Calling it now, that trigger happy nature is going to get Manny killed.

I'm guessing that the ending is going to land with Aida being able to call for a cease fire on all sides once most of the opposition has been defanged, and it'll end ambiguously towards the future but on a positive note in much the same way Gainer did.

Barara escaped though, which is pretty funny.

She is the most successful pilot in the show so far.

There appears to be an escape pod but it's overcome by an explosion and vanishes. I don't think she escaped.

I'll be the one laughing when the final scene of the show is Barara and her two pilot dudes kicking the door of the escape pod out, just like that dude who got drowned under a lake in gainer.

Nah, it's gonna be that one G-IT guy. He'll be like "goddamn, it was cold in there. So, where are my pals?"

Remember that the scene in gainer was one group of characters who were assumed dead meeting another character that was assumed dead. :mrgw:

Barara's pod bumps into the space police cruiser carrying the rescued captain Kia, together they decide to stage a break for freedom and continue their space pirate adventures elswhere, leaving the earth sphere behind.

Good End.

Oh god, the next episode title has me terrified. Crossing the Line of Death. This is going to be like how the second to last episode of Zeta was "Casualties of War" and 80% of the supporting cast was murdered. :ohdear:

I haven't watched the latest episode as it's not up on the aussie streaming service yet ( :f5:

), but the Megafauna's been out of combat for most of the series (at least, it hasn't gotten into dirty slugging matches that damaged it significantly), so it could be due for a beatdown. And that bridge is rather exposed... :ohdear:

Manny's fighting the G-Self in a re-entry battle. She is so dead.

On a (possibly) unrelated note, I guess we know why the G-Self and Kabakali are so enthusiastic about murdering each other in the promo art now.

Reco's been having some really pretty battles lately. How much of that is big budget, and how much is making smart use of what they've got?

It's the final stretch, of episodes, so they're probably just blowing whatever's left.

I would actually think way less of the story if it just followed the standard girlfriend death narrative arc, because it's rote as hell. I'm hoping for something more interesting, like even though Manny is still in love with Luin she realizes his hatred has taken him to a place she can never really follow, so she defects back to the megafauna and ends up the 3rd chair of the lucifer with her friends.
