Off to a decent if a bit of a rushed start. At the very least, it seems to match the kind of tone the first season had so far.

Srice posted:It has a strong start, but then it meanders for awhile and the villains suck. I'm waiting on season 2 to finish before watching more and I feel like if you haven't seen anything Gundam in awhile your best bet would be to check out other things you missed (personally I say G-Reco, which I feel is a stronger show than IBO by every metric) while waiting to see if IBO season 2 screws the pooch or not.

If the second Masked Man is Gali Gali, how in the hell did McGillis botch up killing him so badly?

I hope the show ends with Mika giving up piloting the Gundam to embrace farming. He'd be like the William Munny of his era.

A detail that the first episode of the season mentioned was that Tekkadan's success has actually inspired others to start deploying more child soldiers. Hopefully, Orga will have to eventually face the fact that his actions have had incredibly hosed up consequences such as this. Biscuit's death was sad, but there are many Biscuits out there now who will die.

Do we have any confirmation that Season 2 is the end of IBO? Perhaps we'll get the mythical third season of a Gundam show after this...

2014 was a really weird year since you had a whopping three Gundam shows airing at once- Try, G-Reco, and Gundam-san. That's right, I just reminded you all that Gundam-san exists.

I guess I better get some poofy hair and start teaching goons how to read and write.

I thought that person meant the Naoki Urusawa Monster. And even if they didn't you should watch it anyways.

While creeper McGillis was a good reminder about who he really is, let's not forget that this is in the same episode where IBO tries to make us think that Naze's harem is actually a good thing. I'm not sure the contrast is completely intentional, but that scene didn't play well for me and came off as really handwavy about Naze's character.

This whole time I thought IBO was MGSV, but after these Mobile Armor episodes it turns out it was secretly Peace Walker.

Another good episode. Hearing McGillis get called "Macky" again just really drove home how hosed up that whole situation is.Shinjobi posted:And I might be mis-remembering Glemy, because I could have sworn he was kind of a joke for the majority of the first half of ZZ.

The Gundam preventing Mika from going to hug Kudelia was a nice touch. Some nice shots of people being dwarfed/isolated by their surroundings this week too. Seems appropriate:

I straight up thought Atra was like 10 in season 1. It's less weird in season 2 where they're a little more clear about how old she's supposed to be but its still weird.

There's a nice bit of irony in that Orga, a dude known for winning battles with these insanely convoluted and desperate plans, is ultimately taken out by a basic drive-by shooting.

OTOH McGillis wanting to be best buds with Mika just to make Gaelio jealous would be funny.
