And that fight was indeed tits. Would've been absolutely brutal in any other series.

I really hope we get more crazy visceral fights like that in the tournaments, that was awesome.

All I want is one Gundam Hammer on a unit.

I've been praying for this ever since the show started. Or maybe a reveal of his Dad's ace status being due to his liberal abuse of all of RX-78's gimmicky weapons. :swoon:

C'mon, it's the perfect excuse for the best possible Macross to cover with Gundam.

To date my favorite thing a GM has ever done is get thrown by the Blue Destiny, but that may have just changed. drat that episode was glorious.

The king is Reiji and Aila also doing a Love Love Sekiha Tenkyouken. Their king is Ramba Ral.

This is all I could ever ask for out of this show.

Given how this fight ended in a slugfest I would have loved if the Star Build Strike got a dempsey roll or something equally ridiculous going, but I am content with a shoryuken.

I have to say my favourite parts of the episode were the parts that didn't have to do with the fight.

Except for Kirara's speech. That was cool.

I'm surprised they didn't show the grandson's reaction to the post-match stabbings. Guess they don't want to humanize Grandpa Sponsor that much.

That ending tho... Its shocking that a show about gunpla is the first one in which I actually give a gently caress that the cyber newtype loses her poo poo, and that the protagonist finds out that it was her all along. I might have actually given a poo poo about Four, Stella, Lalah and all the others if they had the same chemistry that Reiji and Aila Aina have.


Yeah, coming off a rewatch of Forever Four this managed to be have more of an impact than Four did for me. Maybe it's just because we've seen Aila more.

Star Build Strike shaking its fist in anger makes the everloving gently caress out of that shot.

Yeah that was absolutely hilarious. Sei's genre savvy move of sharing the charm was pretty funny too in it's own way, though I doubt he expected to witness a newtype style connection in person.

About the only thing I liked is the resolution, where said psychic girl actually took the time and realize that if piloting is causing you so much misery maybe you should just either not pilot or do it only on your own terms.

I have a feeling that is what a lot of folks liked about it, as opposed to a drawn out 'oh drat we have to fight now, how miserable!' situation. It's a cute subversion of what we expect of Gundam at this point, but it's not deep romance or anything.

After playing Full Boost some more last night, I am disappointed in this show's lack of Crossbone X3 and log tossing. Or the Blue Destiny chucking HG GMs at folks.

I didn't say or mean to imply that her building skills weren't good, just that her gunpla aren't the overpowered killing machines that we see in the tournaments sporting trans-am systems, clear funnels, and so on and favor things like pretty red bows rather than gently caress-off missle packed/sniper rifle toting boosters.

Thats why I suggested the continued Aila China team up, one brings the cute the other brings the pain.

I was hoping for a Master Asia style usage of ribbons, I would love to see Ms Sazabi (or Bearguy) wrecking with those.

It's like all of our jokes and dreams for this show came true. Bandai, please ship the HG Axis :allears:

I loved it and a Gouf/Master Gundam combo attack was not the finale I was expecting, but it might be one of the most hilarious/awesome moments in all of Gundam.

A little disapointed that Miss Sazabi got wrecked with only one battle scene, but whatever.

I want Build Fighters S2 to have Sei be frustrated by the advent of 3d printing or something and how lazy it has made modelers, so he goes full on rogue/story villain.

Mr. Ral is censored because having him on two pages would be too much Ral for the average Gundam fan.

Also, what's that about Stardust Memory on the first page? Listing what Gunpla characters are using?

Yeah, the Powered GM Cardigan is a Stardust Memory variant.

It's Kaoruko Sazaki's. Maybe his little sister?

Yeah I saw the kana but I couldn't remember the character's name for the life of me. Here's hoping whoever the pilot is has Chara's goofy dual color hair cut.
