I fully expect El0n to not know how to pilot at all.

Oh god, I just realised what's going to happen. Guel's going to see Jeturk forces under attack by Earthian terrorists and hop into a Dilanza, lead a heroic defence of the colony, and save Delling's life in order to get himself back into his dad's good graces.

Vizuyos posted:We don't actually know what the fundamental purpose of Aerial is. Certainly its most notable feature so far is that it appears to be able to do all the Gundam Stuff without melting the pilot's brain, but there's very clearly a lot more packed into it than just that, and the show so far has shown a willingness to sit on its reveals for quite a while. We actually can reasonably assume Suletta's interfacing via a Permet link though, for two reasons (One of which came just this episode); The fight with the Pharact causing everything to briefly network bridged El4n to Aerial through his Permet link in the Pharact, and Suletta remarked Aerial's voice was easier to hear. The other is the remark about the GUND format working on intent - I reckon Suletta is "hearing" Aerial's intent in the cockpit because the Aerial's making a permet link with Suletta, not the other way around.

Delling escaping death repeatedly by increasingly improbable circumstances related to the Asticassia kids. Suletta throwing a wrench into duels, Guel somehow stopping the whole Dawn of Fold hit squad, El6n tripping over a sniper while rushing to school with toast in his mouth

The cut of Suletta’s mom talking to Delling makes be almost sure that he’s not going down. She probably wants to end him at a moment of her own choosing.

The plot has actually set up very obvious potential spanners in the works for each of the three houses. For Grassley: The potential for Nika to betray Shaddiq and the Fold of Dawn to save her friends. For Piel: The potential of the equally wicked 5lan to betray El0n and the CEOs for his own benefit. For Jeturk: Bob the ship hand hijacking a Gundam and turning out to be an ace pilot.

I've been 50/50 for a while that, much like Prospero, Prospera's revenge wil be non-violent. Re-introducing GUND-format medical tech, reviving the dream of her mentor, making Delling pay for an extravagant wedding, that sort of thing.

We've only had El5n for a scene so far, but given the mention he's as slimy as the original I wouldn't put it past them doing this. It'd sure be a good way to get rid of El0n for the one that's actually a relevant character rather than having him just floating around in the background.

just putting some details I've found out in the new episode. Spoiler-heavy so proceed at your own risk. 1. Of Enhanced Person No.4 and No.5  Results for No.4, in episode 6.  Results for No.5, in episode 10. Several notes on the graph: · The "decision criteria" for No.5 is A, while for No.4 it has dropped to D2 by the time of his last duel (in the same scene Belmeria also said No.4 could only pilot Pharact two more times), with an alert of examination. This "decision" here is probably whether an Enhanced Person is used up and should be disposed of. · It looks like No.5 hasn't piloted a Gund-arm yet. · The brain scan on the bottom right for No.5 is clear while for No.4 it's all covered in blue dots. It clearly shows how No.4's brain has been severely damaged from data storm caused by repetitively testing and piloting gund-arm. · The two abnormal results of No.4's examination are "Nerve Damage Test" and "Cell Survival Test", their results are "Conditionally Acceptable" instead of "no abnormality". I used to think the memory loss of No.4 was due to Peil's brainwashing, but considering how severely damaged No.4's brain and nerves seem, now I think it's more likely the aftermath of data storm. Then, it's likely that No.5 hasn't lost his memories yet, and bought Elan's "if you complete your task I'll give your face back and prepare a citizen number for you" bs, threrefore his attitude towards Peil's schemes is more actively cooperative compared to the passiveness of No.4. It would be interesting to see how his personality and attitude would change as his nerve system gets gradually damaged by piloting Pharact. ...No, it itsn't. 2. Of Dawn of Fold and Witches of Earth  The two Lifriths they own seem to be relying on heavy weapons (instead of gund-bits).  Norea also walked past a room with beds and medical equipment. The bed sheets are clean here, indicating they're being actively used. My guess is they have not bypassed the bioethical issue of gund-arm yet and instead has taken a "low effect, low risk" path. Their pilots would also suffer from data storm; the damage would be lower but they're still slowly killing their pilots. It's unclear Dawn of Fold is merely a mercenary group, or a force of earthian resistances, but I won't call them "terrorists" yet seeing how earthians are being oppressed by the spacians.

Permet score 3 seems to be the score for bit control, while score 2 seems to be about assuming direct control of the unit as if it's your own body. I'd assume they're using it to level 2 most of the time, and still suffering some effects from data storms but not to the extent that using bits would since it requires less information overload. Which presumably means they can do it more, for longer. I don't know what permet scores 1, 4 and beyond (if there are any) do. When Nadim activated permet score 4 in the prologue it seemed like a general performance increase, a la trans-am or Unicorn's destroy mode; including a red aura covering the unit like trans-am. It's also interesting that just before the scene cuts away from his point of view that his vision that it seems to digitize or something. Which is presumably where a lot of the "mind upload" stuff is coming from. And his radio transmission singing "Happy Birthday" couldn't be cut when the captain of the Dominicus ship ordered it done.

What Nadim sees when he activates Score 4, Enhanced Person 4 also sees when he activates Score 2 in Aerial. We haven't been given any information as to what that could mean, but that's the only two times we've seen it. I have a feeling we may see it again with Suletta and Aerial in this finale.

What it seems like, at least in the prologue, is probably wiring the whole drat thing into the brain. So he's looking through the Gundam's optics as his eyes, "talking" through the radio directly, if that makes sense? What could happen in Suletta and Aerial's case is getting to have a proper direct conversation.

Which is presumably where a lot of the "mind upload" stuff is coming from. And his radio transmission singing "Happy Birthday" couldn't be cut when the captain of the Dominicus ship ordered it done. I think the Permet score thing is just a bandwidth limiter. Presumably, the higher the level goes, the more data-per-millisecond can flow between their brain and the mech. More data means the pilot can control more things or exert finer control - but also means more brain-frying feedback. At Permet score 2, the Pharact was highly maneuverable, zipping back and forth in three dimensions to evade enemy attacks, but fought exclusively with that big beam rifle. At this level, Elan4 was able to handle having Guel right up in his face in close range, relying entirely on its agility to dodge his swings. Elan4 always increased to Permet score 3 before using the bits, but the Pharact's movements actually tended to be more straightforward after sending out the bits. At this level, rather than relying on its agility and maneuverability to dodge attacks, Elan4 tended to rely on the Pharact's speed to get out of the enemy's attack range and then pin down their movements with the bits. Against Guel, the Pharact barely moved at all after the bits were out. Against Suletta, he basically just flew in a straight line away from her after sending out the bits. When he wasn't able to keep the Aerial safely distant with just the Pharact's speed alone, he increased to Permet score 4, and the Pharact became noticeably more maneuverable, returning to its pre-bits level of mobility while still being able to use the bits. It seemed like he was bringing out more of the capabilities of the suit, but even though he was able to exert more control over the suit and its systems, the mental strain quickly degraded his own piloting abilities, so the net result wasn't as much of a gain as one might expect.

Going back in previous franchises, we kinda saw a version of the permit overload with Gundam 00 A Wakening Trailblazers. Setsuna went into a coma trying to process the aliens the first time, and only succeeded the second time with the help of an AI (Tiera and Veda).

I’m doubting the Bob job is really his dad’s punishment job and not Guel actually running away. Why else take an assumed identity? Why would his brother think he vanished into the night if he hadn’t? Also what’s up with Prospera’s mask? I get that she wants to hide her identity so it’s fake, but why does she still wear it alone in private most of the time? Why take such a big risk of your naive daughter blabbing about how you take it off in front of her? Like what does Sulleta even think it’s for?

Elan No.4 was already nearly on his limits before the duel, so maybe a freshly made enhanced person would be able to keep at Permet Score 4 for a longer time. galagazombie posted:I’m doubting the Bob job is really his dad’s punishment job and not Guel actually running away.

Gotta keep up the pretense in private in case someone's gotten a camera into her office, or someone barges in unannounced, that sort of thing. Suletta's easy, as it'd clearly start and end at "Don't tell anyone about Mommy taking off her mask, okay?" "OKAY!  "
