Is that supposed to be Tatsuya at the beginning there? He looks so strange without an overplayed hairstyle.

I'm also really interested in finding out why China's little brother turned into such a jerkass.

He probably got beat up by Sei so many times in practice that he just lost interest and gave up.

Kousaka also seemed to recognize it, so perhaps Sei didn't just build it, but used it for a time.

It seemed like he recognized it more on "that suit's performance is just like what Sei makes," rather than "oh hey, I recognize that appearance."

Look at all the stuff they had to take off to get it to fit under that Dom! Immersion ruined!

Well we can't all be Sei.

I liked how Fumina and Sekai took Sakai's words to heart without getting defensive or even "man, what an rear end in a top hat". They just took in what he had said and sought to improve themselves. That never quite happens in reality but I'm thankful it happened.

Yeah, I was really surprised. Like, they didn't even notice how rude he was being or anything. Just "this man has taught me a great lesson!"

Maybe the reason he lost the 11th Championship was because Yuuki wasn't a moron and just shot him from the other end of the arena.

So he began lobbying for a switch to team tournaments.

I will say that I kind of miss Sei's shameless Gundam fanboying. Nobody on the team really seems to like Gundam-the-franchise very much. Fumina seems the cloest but her interets seems more Gunpla-related.

I haven't been feeling as much love for Gundam as a whole from Try that I really did from the original. Maybe it's just me.

I have basically the opposite opinion of this since in my books it's better that they animate it differently every time rather than rely on stock footage.

Though looking around, I am apparently in the minority on this.

Not too hot on stock footage here either, even if it doesn't look as good as the one time they put all the money into it.

Honestly I think the problem is just that the fights are boring. It's a shonen tournament show, good characters that aren't just archetypes are literally at a premium. It all comes down to how well they pull off the sport of the day, and BF totally aced it. Try on the other hand has all these things they could do with the team aspect, things they are explicitly not doing to turn it into a 1 v 1 or "every member of the team does flashy attack, win".

This is pretty close to my thoughts as well. I'd be willing to forgive a lot more if the fights were more interesting and compelling.

It'd be 必中, 気合, 狙撃 instead of 必中、魂、狙撃 if that were the reference. Remember, Spirit is a... questionable translation of Yell.

To be fair, 魂 is also a spirit command.

But no, I don't think that's what they were going for.

I'm still up, but if I watch the episode now, then I won't have anything to look forward to after I wake up. This is, like, the most ridiculous problem ever.

That Core Fighter seems kind of awkward.
