>Ein suddenly looks like a baby
what the fuck is going on with production
>>13782481
I think that he is a youngster.
>>13782428
why does everyone in this show have such silly hair?
>>13782481
He has always been a big cry baby
>>13782481
He's always looked pretty young to me. This just confirms the idea he's getting an AV system at some point though.
>>13782481
Who cares. Ein is shit. He's bad and he should feel bad.
>>13782470
What what the release of the 2nd opening, Survivor?
>>13782531
No info so far.
>>13782428
>There's actually MS in it
Holy shit they remembered
>>13782470
Season 1 Original Sound Tracks that is
>>13785442
lol thanks Amazon.co.jp
Season 2 confirmed indirectly by CD listings now referring to the currently airing season as "Season 1"
>>13785455
So basically, this is a split cour
>>13782591
I think it's just a quick logistics shot though.
>>13785455
Good. I wanna see all the 26 gundams frame animated.
>>13785478
You mean stills?
>>13785461
>all these fags that didn't believe gundam will now be always split into 2 thanks to AGE
>>13785485
But anon, it started with being 2 cour ever since Gundam 00
Is it just me, or are the Tekkadans ms's starting to feel really Armored core esc?
Rebake feels like something I would pilot in 4a
>>13782428
>look it's ein
>>13785455
They always do that and Amazon wouldn't have that information anyway.
>>13785496
No it didnt. Age was full on 50 episdes witout break
>>13785535
>I don't know what a cour is.
>>13785455
>IBO gets 50 episodes
>G-Reco only got 26
Gotta admit, this upsets me.
>>13785455
Well that means i can drop this, i was just watching cause i was halfway through so might as well finish
>>13785455
I'll believe it when the season ends.
>>13785574
I'm with you. I don't think something like that would be leaked via Amazon if they change the listing or Bandai announces something soon then alright.
>>13782428
>People staring.
>Shotas cleaning.
So thrilling. And the worst part is knowing Fumitan is dying.
>>13785455
guys what if they take 50 episodes to get to earth
>>13785753
>It's just a small detour, don't worry.

Jesus
Well I'm dropping this
I don't think I can even stand the coming 10 episodes let alone another 25on top of that
>>13785455
That doesn't mean shit. Amazon said the same fucking shit with Build Fighters and it was just the first cur of the show (1-15) OST
>>13785476
Fuck, probably right.
>>13785558
If that screen is true making this true, then I've lost all hope in this franchise ever getting to a state where its less shit than it is now.

Another preview pic
>>13785928
Then I've read it right that it's the CD of the 1st cour (1-13ep.).
>bought the HG kits
>enjoyed building them, don't have any complaints
>will be buying more Graze kits because they're cool
>immediately thought that the guy (Crank) in the box is an important character
And then I picked up the series
>Crank instagibs, completely obliterated just 3 episodes in
Will there be any ace pilot with a basic Graze as his/her main suit?
>>13786572
Crank still lives on, in our hearts. Honor was his undoing.
>>13786588
Granted his character is staple in every gundam series and their fate is to due because of honor, it's still disappointing (I didn't even reach to the point where I got attached to the character) to have him die so early.
>>13786588
Also in Ein madness, but we all know the guy will end up getting himself killed eventually
>>13782531
9th March relase confirmed
www.generasia.com/wiki/Survivor_(BLUE_ENCOUNT)
>>13786314
So exciting!
Hnrrgt! 15 episodes in and im fucking loving it.
a nice change of pace from G no reconguista.
Pissed as fuck they slapped my waifu around tho...
>>13785812
oh yeah they should also stop using the giant robots in gundam because realism means good storytelling
So lets wax nostalgic, how did /m/ felt about the lack of exploding ms in IBO?
>>13786782
No, it doesn't, and argument that everything should be as realistic as possible is bad. But "Make them reach their endgoal faster! I'm bored!" complaints are bad too.Just, let them take their sweet ass time to do whatever they want to do. You'll hate it anyway, /m/. You hate everything. If IBO was fast-paced and full of gundams, you'd just complain that it doesn't develop characters. And mech designs are generic. And action is pointless. And you're bored or confused, like always.
>>13785753
>guys what if they take 50 episodes to get to earth
Still wouldn't be nearly as entertaining as when this show (>>13728436) did that.
>>13786328
Wouldn't they have released it earlier then? GBFT also split the soundtrack, but the first half was released about midway through airing.
>>13785753
>they get to earth at the end of S1
>it's empty
>>13782428
4 fights so far :D :D :D
>>13782481
That's his younger brother Zwei. He never mentioned it until now.
>>13785455
Actually, Amazon wouldn't know shit about seasons. G Reco's OST was listed as Season 1 aswell. What you're seeing as season could probably just be cour.
>>13782428
>>13782428
FUMNITAN
>>13787550
Fumitan-tan!
So 50 episodes confirmed or not?
>>13789230
looks like speculation, but everyone is taking it a word, so we'll have to wait for banrise to make a commnet.
maybe if they see enough positive reaction to this rumor it could sway them to make season 2
douyutv.com/5275?cdn=lx
>>13789230
There might be second part coming in Fall
https://twitter.com/pKjd/status/690804681828794368
>>13786809
We're asking for at least one thing about this shitshow to improve. Right now IBO has neither good battles nor development nor decent pacing. We're hoping for things to speed up at least because the development is a lost cause and battles are probably a source of budget problems and directing combined, which is nearly impossible to fix. We're hoping for just one thing to change.
If this show was done well then yes, we'd still get a few fags complaining about it being edgefest: The Gundam but they would be the minority. Maybe we'd be able to have some fun discussion and wonder where the plot is going to take us. Maybe we'd care when someone dies. Maybe we'dhave fun
>>13789650
>we
/m/ isn't a hive mind
>>13789665
You keep saying that but you are
>>13789665
It isn't, but the people who make it appear as a hivemind are easily the most vocal and irrational causing those with more diverse opinions to refrain from discussion
>>13789684
/m/ here, we totally agree.
>>13789642
Except nothing suggested that. Even if something was confirmed saying Fall would be wrong since nothing said that either.
Amazon was referring to the soundtrack as the first cour like they always do and since IBO's main fanbase is newfags they don't know that.
It's time.
>It's a no robots episode
>>13789692
It's just that it's noted from October 2016 to March 2017 which is the timetable for 2-cour Fall show.
Rip
>>13789908
>>13789642
Nanatsu no Taizai S2 is airing in the Fall
>>13789933
Look. What everyone thought was going to happen happened the exact way everyone thought it would happen.
>>13789908
You're full of shit
>>13789933
Quality Atra Mixtape approves.
New Ippei robot
Rebake
Robot action next ep
>>13789954
Yay
Something that's not a graze!
It actually looks half decent too
How quick will it job though
>>13789954
>>13789958
>>13789962
I swear to god this episode better be nothing but robots
Favorite character
>>13789944

I still can't tell if I like or hate rebake.
>>13789954
Damn Ippei, this ones too Reco-like,
Attack of the clones
>FumiFumi died
Dropped.
You hear me?
Dropped.
>>13789964
It doesn't even have a kit announced; it is going to job extremely fast and be utterly useless.
>>13790017
Might still be less lazy than some of the background dudes in 00
>>13790041
that would be a shame
It might be the original rodi so there's a chance it might reuse the frame so maybe there's a chance?
>>13790024
She needs to find love
>>13790024
don't worry guys....I'm sure she'll show up in some Build Fighters spinoff...someday.
>>13790053
Hg man rodi frame looked like this.
>>13790014
Kind of looks like that Gatling jahannam msv
>>13790089
>>13789954
>>13789964
>>13790041
Oh what the fuck! It's literally jobbing right there in the fucking preview
>>13790089
Man Rodi Frame
>>13789908
It's noted from October 2015 to March 2016 you fucking retard.
>>13786807
I can't speak for all of /m/, but I loved it because it tied into the salvage gimmick.
Then they basically refused to do anything meaningful with it, like 90% of what this show promised to do.
How the bloody fuck did Kudelia get unharmed through that hail of gunfire?
Well this is how wars are started, so no way in hell is this going to end cleanly on ep 24.
Also it looks like something big is going to get destroyed next episode since there is alot of debris floating around
>>13789933
So She will back like cyber newtype?
>>13790089
>>13789954
This MS will be piloted by Kabuki NotPadme?
>>13789650
>edgefest: The Gundam
We already had 00
For once after the main characters leave someone's body and run away they should later gate a video of the body being abused.
>>13790345
edgy as fuck
>>13790341
Nah, that would be Wing.
>>13790348
A mean what the fuck do they think it is going to happen to that body? Thrown us space? Cremated? Some mass grave? And in fantasies probably given as food to some animals.
>>13789971
Why does he wear the mask?
Why Fumitan dont buyed a frying pan ? ;_;
Obari sends his regards.

TRAITOR BITCH
>>13790384
Was explained the reasons for Fumitan being a spy?
>>13790312
She was pulled to the floor with the union bitch on the floor next to her between herself and the guns.
>>13790374
Maybe she did, but she was shot in the back not the the breast.
>>13790389
Yeah she has been one the whole time, it was her job to keep her safe until the right moment when they wanted Kurdelia to die, and that's when she blocked the bullet instead. But if there is anything to her back story, I'm sure mask guy will tell Kurdelia soon.
I fucking hate kudelia. The show really shot itself in the foot by having everything revolve around her
Those Gllajarhorn tanks were great. You only need tanks to subdue a riot.
Best part was Mika dragging Kudelia from under Fumitan's corpse "she's not Fumitan anymore"
>>13789933
>gunshot on the back clearly missing vital organs
>she's probably still alive but suffering
>Mika knows this but he is a dick and wants her out of the picture so he can rape Kudelia
>>13789954
Kinda looks like a Man-Rodi but on a diet.
That may have been the best episode in weeks, but it was still only mediocre. The show's as anvilicious as ever.
>>13789954
This thing is so Greco it makes me hard.
It also depresses me that it got stuck in a show there robots don't do dick and is likely blowing up in that picture.
>>13790327
She piloted new Graze seen at OP2 aside Kimaris.
It's been a while since I was this disappointed by a show.
>>13790605
Did you actually think Okada is a good writer or something? She is like the female version of Urobuchi.
>Crank dead
>Fumi dead
Who's next? Biscuit? Orga?
>>13790610
Aniki and most of his crew.
>>13790609
Except this show doesn't feel like it's written by Okada.
At all.
I came to IBO expecting something similar to WIXOSS or M3: a festival of overblown drama and exagerrated tragicomedy. I got what's possibly one of the most boring things I've ever laid my eyes upon.
>>13790614
>expecting something similar to WIXOSS or M3
This is why anime is shit. people want badly written train wrecks
>>13790614
Oh, so you are one of those guys. Okada doesn't really have much of a style. She is even more of a hack than Urobuchi, though she seems to share some of his suffering inclinations, it is in fact that she is just a typical drama woman. She writers whatever she is told to. She doesn't have any real personality. She is just a meme name in the industry.
And frankly is is retarded to like M3 and say this is boring.
>>13790624
Being boring is a much heavier sin than being badly written.
>>13790614
Okada only went all the way for a few of the episodes. The rest was them filling out her outlines.
>>13790624
I didn't even knew it's written by okada. And I quite enjoyed the show.
>>13790625
>>13790624
>>13790614
The show isn't Okada's fault, Blame it on Bandai Sunrise who purposely made the show slow down so they can make more figures, this same shit happened with BFT, AGE 3rd arc and Gundam00 second season.
Nagai Tatsuyuki, the director made a tweet about Sunrise not letting them do their job, but then deleted the tweet.
>>13790636
>Blame it on Bandai Sunrise who purposely made the show slow down so they can make more figures
That makes zero sense. They speed up and have you introduce more new suits and fights yet IBO has hardly any of both, the majority being Graze but (colour)
>>13790636
Based Tomino, saving us from Bandai.
>>13790639
>They speed up and have you introduce more new suits and fights yet IBO
Why do you think Rebake HG is getting released this month and Rebake is finally showing up in the series next episode?
Same thing happened with Pepe, Sunrise wants maximum profits so the best way is to release the kit close to their show appearance.
![large[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/UCaVKCb.jpg "large[1].jpg")
>>13790641
Yeah thats why no we don't have half of the G-Reco kits. Fucking shit wheres my Hecate
>>13790654
>best way is to release the kit close to their show appearance.
That's the normal thing to do though. Release the kit near when it shows up. The Rebake being forced in earlier and the kit coming out earlier than expected would mean they are forcing something, this is normal
>>13790017
It's just like destiny's ending all over again.
>>13790662
Its normal from Bandai sunrise stand point, but its the reason why Gundam shows have either slow pacing or fast pacing which affects the plot/story of the show.
Which is why shows with little or simplistic story like BF don't get hurt by this since its about selling gunplas.
Gundam has always been about selling gunplas, sure, but it didn't meddle with the story like it has been doing for the past few years
>>13790656
>chocolate
Genius.
As a huge fan of IBO, I am very disappointed with the Fumitan bit. First off the snipers should have waited to take out Kudelia. They had positioning and no reason not to finish her.
The part I hated and I mean hated was Kudelia's reaction. She and Fumitan used to visit worn torn places and seen death. Hell she even held a women until she died not 10 minutes before and accepted her death quickly. Yet with Fumitan she didn't cry, scream or show any emotion. It should have been happening right then and there that her best friend died.
I NEED FUCKING GUNDAM BATTLES. Jesus christ. I am the same anon who asked recently to the board what their top 10 Gundam were and so far I watched the 0079 triology movie and now Zeta. I have seen gundam battles in space, land, water and in air. I have yet to see consistent gundam battles in the show and I am getting bummed out by this. If this show is a 1 cour season then I cannot defend this anymore. Ffs Tekkedan was barely in this at all.
I mean seriously I am the very few IBO posters who consistently praised this but I am beginning to lose my patient when I am watching other Gundams.
Meido should've just let Kudelia die after that show of overdramaticism
Well who didn't see that coming, still a better episode I guess. Wonder what McMurdo is planning, what Kudelia's decision about her decision is going to be decided, and they're building hype for what looks like a pretty large scale battle next episode.
Another rant is that how is Kudelia still this foolish? She should have had years as a kid to mold herself into a person based on realism and not fantasy idealism. Chrsit. I was visibly angered when she tried giving a homeless kid fucking candy. Like fuck off would ya?
Anon confirmed for prophet
>>13790702
Mika didn't kill Fumitan, but I guess Kudelia could still hate him for a while.
>>13790702
We know its you and those predictions are terrible.
>>13790679
hate to say we told you so
>>13790699
The show is just really inconsistent on how much she knows, then gain she isn't the only character like that. IBO is a show that is written to fit the moment but not work on a larger scale, this is partly why it does get praise as people like what it is doing at a certain point but don't look at it on a bigger scale
>>13790702
Okada is that you?
>>13790706
Mika putting her out of her misery, similar to that one guy earlier on, would have actually been interesting and a nice call back. It would also relate to a previous conflict about killing that seems to have vanished at the moment due to lack of focus.
>>13790717
What possible reason would Mika kill her like that in cold blood? Kudelia's psyche would be shattered if he did that.
>>13790724
It does show that Mika has become a bit more human, being visibly uncomfortable and not even mentioning dead, corpse, etc. Though that could be the translation, but it does make it look like he's become a little conscientious.
>>13790724
She already witnessed a massacre, held a dying woman in her arms, and Fumitan literally died on top of her.
It is questionable, but I'm not suggesting he should've killed her as Kudelia watched. Maybe Fumitan could've also requested it like the other guy did.
Why couldn't the snipers just fire another shot, kill kid eloa and put us all out of our misery
Did something happen already?
>>13790746
Fumitan is dead
>>13790745
It was "too late, things were moving quicker than expected".
>>13790749
Who?
>>13790754
One of these.
>>13790749
I don't know about that, at least not 100% behind her being dead. Anything short of a headshot leaves the door open for them not being dead, even if it cheapens their death.
>>13790679
Well, you just gotta wait pussy.
First of all, Kudelia was in denial that Fumitan died. She doesn't want to believe that her friend died.
Second,you watched this so far and not see a a pattern here? It's about three talking episodes then a battle then the cycle refreshes. Not fucking hard to see. If you don't like it or you are really impatient for "MUH GUNDUMB FAGHTS". Just watch your other gundamfag shows. Feel free dropping this.
Third, this has to be a fucking bait.
So is Gjallarhorn like the Titans in Zeta?
>>13790763
>It's about three talking episodes then a battle then the cycle refreshes.
>defending this
>>13790763
Kudelia should have broke down on the battlefield and realized Fumitan was dead. She has seen enough death in her life to realize that and also she just held a dead girl in her hands.
There should be nice balance of heavy action scenes, with politics and plot progression. What we have her is too much focus on the characters and not enough of what makes Gundam great, which is the battles. If I see "Gundam" slapped on the front of the title of a show, I expect fucking action you twit.
Fuck off with you calling me a pussy, I been tolerating IBO bashing from the beginning and I am beginning to see where this show is starting to fall flat. Compared to the classics, this doesn't have the grand scope I was hoping for.
>>13790765
They are what the Titans would have become if they had lasted longer.Gjallhorn has been in power for 300 years while the Titans were only around for a few years and never achieved their goals.
>>13790760
>Anything short of a headshot leaves the door open for them not being dead
Don't forget you can come back from headshots too
>>13790824
Considering what happened in Gundam Seed, you can come back from complete disintegration
>>13790832
That was a plot hole and nothing more.
Am I paranoid to think that Fumitan is going to survive this somehow,get brainwashed and become the white haired lady in the opening of the anime ?
>>13790832
Fixed in the movies
So weabo italian mafia will bretay Tekkadan?
>>13790857
>Ugly old man is a bad guy
Man, you never know what IBO will do next
It'd have been better if, for every single thing that happened, there weren't cuts all over the place to explain what was happening.
>>13790861
But he wasn’t that ugly, in the other hand he is the Don of a mafia, it would have been weird if he was actually good
>>13790832
Oh, and you can turn off a critical nuclear reactor, even if it DOES cause a Nuclear explosion, you'll survive it.
fucking hell, Shinn and Kira should have been dead from that.
>>13790658
00 Movie says hi. seriously. where are the GN-X IVs? and the Seravee II? and the Final battle versions of Harute and Zabanya?
>>13790848
That doesn't make any fucking sense. Why would they take a women on the brink of death, brain wash, spend a lot of money changing her and then give her a mobile suit.
That would be terrible.
>>13790898
I think his age is the main problem here in this particular series, not the way he makes a living.
>>13790961
Someone hasn't watched Victory.
>>13790961
Crazier things have happened in Gundam and something similar happened in Victory.
>>13790963
>>13790990
Well that is stupid. Fuck that nonsense. Find a pilot who is able bodied and not on death's door.
i remember the first time Orphans Namida came up and i was so fucking hyped for the next episode
now we're here
what the fuck did you do Okada
Damn that new suit next week looks like Tallgeese
>>13790983
Fumitan has absolutely no skills, or innate abilities to take advantage of or make her a superior pilot unlike say Faula who is a Newtype, and a pretty good pilot.
>>13791023
Yes, it is utterly stupid, but it's nowhere near the most unlikely thing that has happened in a Gundam series.
so,
how did they know a little girl will be a rebel leader to implant a spy early in her life?
they have a time machine?
>>13791110
She was probably just a watch dog over her and her role got more important as she became more rebellious.
>>13791110
They probably groomed her to be one. Find a girl with lots of empathy, teach about shitty Martian life, then give her the tools to "fix" it.
>>13791110
Wasn’t Kudelia speech 9 years prior the current events? So she was like 7 or something like that, I guess Nobliss put a mole with her just in case she actually achieved something
For the love of god this was expected since chapter 1, Fumitan didn't did shit at all in the series though, more than "I don't speak too much and look like someone who will betray". This is going in the worst gundam route, at least Destiny was a trainwreck.
>>13791216
it's already worse than Destiny's last quarter, AGE and Try
>>13791219
Nop, not really it’s boring and predictable but it has yet to go full retarded
In short, this show has improved a bit ', or is still terribly boring? When was the last decent battle?
>>13791038
i am feeling you
>>13791275
> When was the last decent battle?
Next time.
>>13790699
To Kudelia's defense, there's many people in the real world who act just like her.
>random protectors recognize Kudelia but Gjallarhorn doesn't
What the actual fuck? Can anybody come up with a reasonable explanation for this bullshit?
>>13791110
They didn't.
I think Fumi was being forced to repay a debt to the Space Mob.
I wonder what the Space Triads are doing right now.
>>13791304
They should have said he was from mars or something, so it makes a little sense
>>13791307
He literally says that he saw her on the news though.
Ein already ditched Crank for Gaelio
>>13791055
Fuala was a top tier pilot, but if she wasn't batshit crazy she would've killed Uso and destroyed the last V2 unit.
>>13791311
But the news guys didn’t knew her and Gjallarhorn doesn’t watch the news it seems, only he knew who was Kudelia
>>13791329
I just hate that the whole "nobody knows who Kudelia is" thing was only as plot point so Atra could get the shit beaten out of her for cheap sympathy.
>>13791321
This is exactly the problem, Fumitan is too much of a small fly, letting her stay dead is better
You're a literallywho in a movement until something really fucking big happens.
Yknow like getting massacred in a half-assed false flag.
Alternatively, mobile workers emit a stupidity field.
>>13791038
I watch every episode in hopes for a robot fight

No you are not crazy
This is a mecha anime
>>13790853
But the movies/remaster make even LESS sense!
>>13791343
Nah, Kudelia should've been the one who died. She's pretty much dead weight to to the team. Fumitan could've taught those Orphans how to read and write, and grow with them.
>>13791319
That slut.
>>13791275
The last good battle was Akihiro vs Amida and Azee.
Yeah. Seriously.
>>13791280
We'll see, but I highly doubt it.
It's not as bad as people say it is.
It's just outstandingly mediocre. Like every episode I think "that's it?" but it's never shit enough to drop.
I just feel blueballed as fuck.
Fumitan better stay dead.
>>13791366
and to teach them about the female body.
>>13785455
That means nothing, Amazon always does that.
>>13791479
Put this way. I didn't see any gundam besides this one besides half of SEED (before I dropped it), (10 or so episodes of SEED Destiny before I dropped it) and both season 00.....I was enjoying myself. But then actually watching the 0073 triology and now watching Zeta...I don't know it just feels so meh. Like with 0073 and Zeta, there is constant strategy, two sides being developed, great battles that range from all kinds of terrain and characters that are motivated by different ideals. This just feels too.....simplistic? I don't know how else to describe it. It doesn't have the big scope a usual gundam series should have and thus it feels so small in the grand scheme of things.
I really think this anime would be much much better if it didn't belong to the Gundam series. There is just too much good to be compared that it gets outshined.
>>13791357
What? It removed his broken helmet from the scene, eliminating the certainty that he was dead.
>>13791110
The ultra long con!
This show is the fucking worst. It trades action for plot and characters but neither are interesting. Seriously this episode was like poorly thought out fan fiction. Who puts a spy in a caregiver position for 9 years, what could possibly have motivated fumina to take that job? Guess we'll never know, it's not important anyway she was only needed to set up a cliche drama scene.
Also kudelia is not at all like the lady in the book who he a sword and looks somewhat inspiring, kudelia stumbles into trouble and try bodies fall on her and she is continually praised as some sort of inspiring hero. She could be mentally retarded and it wouldn't make a difference, she's only important because the show says she is, it's not earned or convincing to the audience.
Just what a disaster this show is.
so felini's boss is gonna betray tekkaden but does this mean felini will too? what're the odds that he would go against their orders?
>>13791666
$$$ for a boob job.
>>13790312
Better question. Why didn't more people kiss the ground when they heard the gunfire in the smoke.
Kudelia surviving is understandable, her being only one is bullshit.
>>13782428
Mark my words: IBO 2nd season will be the first Gundam season to have 0 mecha fights.
>>13790898
It's not like he betrayed them though. He straight up tells Kudelia to her face he's hoping she'll stir up shit that he can use to get mo' money. And at the end of this episode he chastises Nobliss for trying to kill her and stop that revolution gravy train.
Okay so plotting Kudelia's life
Small kid has interest in helping poor, even forces her way into seeing and (badly) trying to help.
Then she has highier level education presumably learning something about politics. Not clear if she does any work to help poor here
Somehow for no clear reason she is chosen to give a speech at a very important meeting. This is big enough (possibly with help) to reach earth
Given all that, how is Kudelia so weak willed and ignorant? She seems completely written for convenience and not as a character

>Microagressions
>Privilege
>B+
>>13791793
It wasn't even just chastising, it was a straight up warning not to pull that shit again, and since it got his own guys involved he better be working with him from now on.
>>13791666
>he's only important because the show says she is, it's not earned or convincing to the audience.
This is a problem I always had with anime, and some other kind of fiction, characters who "tell us" that someone is special, or a genius, but without ever prove it with actions.
>>13791834
> A series of moments between Fumitan and Kudelia ran parallel to a public demonstration, hurtling us toward an emotionally shattering conclusion.
>emotionally shattering conclusion.
>Basically, the plan that Fumitan's employer has is very similar to the one in the Lion King where Scar plots to get Simba involved in an outside commotion so Mufasa has to save him.
What?
>>13791820
>Then she has highier level education presumably learning something about politics.
According to this she mostly studied history and economics.
>>13791868
Why would she take that when it is clearly not her interest? And if that were true how come it was Mika who could wax lyrical about it?
>>13791820
>Somehow for no clear reason she is chosen to give a speech at a very important meeting.
She helped organize the meeting, comes from a wealthy family, has had a higher education than a lot of other people in the movement, and her dad is a major diplomat.
>>13791769
How revolutionary.
>>13791879
>She helped organize the meeting
That would mean she had to know a lot more about this whole thing if she could organise on that scale. Never mind not be a weaker than a sleepy kitten
>>13791877
>And if that were true how come it was Mika who could wax lyrical about it?
When did he ever do that?
>>13791890
corn field
>>13790490
At the very least that's around where the ribcage is so there's major arteries and lungs in that area. It's very likely should could have died from blood loss. Then again, she also would probably unable to give her repentant death speech as she'd be drowning in her own blood, but it's melodrama, we don't need to worry about stuff like that.
Actually, I'm impressed, we had two death speeches this episode. One from Fumitan and one from nameless activist worker. Both managed to croak out everything they needed to say before they bit the dust.
>>13791895
Forgot about that. Her meeting with McMurdo showed that she was mainly concerned about things that would actually make mars profitable like loosening regulations on mining trades. Corn farming is a dead end on mars.
>>13791906
No that doesn't, it just shows that IBO turns traits on and off when it needs them. If she had been in higher education and taken some sort of specialisation in economics she'd have some idea about bio fuel cause it is always such a huge market
All things considered, maybe they should choose the route with Kudelia undergoes the operation to become a grunt pilot Grunt. A Joan of Arc protected by Mika. At least there would be more opportunities for battles
>>13791942
Then we'd have people complaining that all she does is get saved by Mika and that she should have just gone back to 'politicking' and leave fighting to the Turbines.
>>13791942
Imagine if Orga had been killed early and she had to take the post of leader trying to organise this all. Would have been neat especially if it kept on mars
>>13791948
If all she did was fail then yes, cause that would be another way the show could be badly written. if the show was well written and had a nice mixture which made sense for the characters people would be happier
>>13791948
>all she does is get saved by Mika
Well that is exactly what just happened
>>13791954
>if the show was well written and had a nice mixture which made sense for the characters people would be happier
Well, making Kudelia a pilot doesn't make sense anyway, so there you go.
>>13791948
Politicking and strategy would be fine, the problem is that she does nothing.
>>13790341
00 is easily one of the most optimistic Gundam series.
