So, I've, like, designed a really sweet attack plan that I'm calling Attack Plan Ded Moroz, like "Deadmau5!"

Not sure if I want Purple McMasky in the credits to be Gaelio or not. Am curious to see what McGillis has planned for the next phase of his "gently caress the system" agenda.

Wonder where they're going to go with Mika losing bits of himself in Barbatos. And if he and Orga will finally find something they can't agree on.

It's only Ein the first time they use him. Next time it's Zwei, then Drei, and so on and so forth.

So, a thought occurred to me about Masky McGlowface, and how he could be Gali-Gali without McGillis retroactively looking stupid for not confirming the kill: Gali-Gali got Eined and now he's a brain in a robot body. McGillis just underestimated how long sheer hate would let Gaelio cling to life after taking a giant sword to the torso.

Mika has a close but kind of unhealthy friendship with the young, charismatic, silver-haired commander of a mercenary company that's heavy on the child soldiers. He has a busted arm, a busted eye, and a terrifying well of murderous rage that's the single biggest obstacle to his dream of a quiet life beyond his constant battles. He also owns a special, wolf-themed suit of armour equipped with arm-guns and an enormous sword that grants him tremendous strength and speed at a tremendous mental and physical cost.

Let's be honest here, Akihiro just doesn't have the Guts.

Interesting to see Mika putting his dreams of farming into reality.

Also wondering what they're going to do with Robo-Gali.

Another little thing that grabbed me this episode: Atra noticing Mika's right arm working again while he's hooked up to Barbatos.

I think I like Space Hitler better than Space Benedict Arnold right now.

Also, I figured Robo-Gali was thinking about Carta when he was talking to Julieta, but yeah he's also talking about Ein and himself.

Orga made it explicit that he doesn't do too much long-term thinking.

And I had a reaction a lot like Orga's when I realized why Mika doesn't like peeling fruit.

I'm guessing that Galan was Rustal's brother, given the similarities in appearance and Rustal's little eulogy at the end there.

Wonder if that will ever come up at some point?

It was almost fun watching him hold on to that last spark of hope so it could be snuffed out when Takaki took aim. You know, in spite of the implications of the nicest member of Tekkadan cold-bloodedly executing someone.

Also, I bet Pompadour was being called to grab a steam vac and clean the carpet in that office.

It also really reflects badly on Rustal to let a dumbass like Iok flit around without restraint. Carta actually disobeyed orders and was manipulated by McGillis into situations where she'd just gently caress up more. Ordinarily the chain of command as well as her own sense of professionalism should've kept her from making some of the errors she's made, but she hosed up there.

Iok seemingly has none of that. Rustal happily gives him command of a portion of the Arianrhod fleet. He deploys in combat alongside vastly superior pilots and learns not a single thing in any encounters. If Carta actually fought anyone other than Tekkadan we'd have an even better comparison because Iok seemingly can't even deal with mobile suits piloted by rebelling workers.

Iok is the head of one of the other families of the Seven Stars. Rustal pretty much has to give him enough rope to hang himself with if he wants to reign him in; otherwise, there'd be issues with one of the families ordering another one around.

Assuming Iok survives this fuckup, expect him to wish he hadn't between Rustal's response and McGillis probably being savvy enough to have audiovisual evidence that he was the one that woke up a Mobile Armor despite warnings not to.

Then he and Fellini meet. It results in a more dapper version of the Major Armstrong/Sig Curtis flex-off in FMA.

Nah.

He's the guy who runs a stable of Gunpla Battlers. Or, well, the one who makes sure they have spare parts and paints, arranges the schedules, tries to reinstall in some of the bossman's crazier ideas for promotions, etc.

While Mika is like the mom from Angelic Layer. Only, you know, male. And not a parent.

Anyway, things I noticed: I think that's the first time Orga's been alone at that viewport when he was contemplating something.

I would not be at all surprised if Mika doesn't know how babies are made.

The whole scene with him stuck on the floor and the baby crawling up to say hi with him using his only working limb to administer headpats just reinforces the gap between what he wants from the future and what he's likely to have.

Also, Orga would not take it well at all if he knew (or figures out) that his show of restraint and maturity at the funeral was explicitly what got Lafter killed. It'll get worse if more Turbines die when Mika likely blows up Saisei next week. Either way, when Teiwaz dies Orga will probably have to bring the surviving Turbines under Tekkadan's umbrella, which is just going to add more stress to what he has to deal with.

The character whose position I'm wondering about now is Nobliss Gordon. We haven't heard from the fat man in quite a while, and it seems like he should be relevant again pretty soon.

Now, question is, who does Iok go after next, Takaki or Biscuit's sisters?

Rustal is as big of an idiot as Iok if he thinks that Iok understood him

He doesn't, he just hopes that it takes Iok long enough to spin up the hamster wheels that by the time that's done he at least can't gently caress up the current situation any farther.

The question now is how they tie this into the plot of whatever SRW game IBO ends up in. Hopefully the same one as the new Full Metal Panic, they would work well together.
