Duke Togo Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Wow, they reused a ton of previous scenes/art in the first half of this episode. It doesn't come off poorly, but if you've been following along faithfully, you'll notice it. Quote

whispo Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 (edited) Holy crap what an awsome episode Ranka's mom, a resurected grace, small weird things in Ranka's cells, alto with an armored pack!!! and did I hear a diamond force there ? Edited July 10, 2008 by whispo Quote
MisaForever Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Grace　is the final cyclon You do understand that for those of us who don't watch BSG or care about it, this makes no sense. Quote
wolfx Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 The ender theory is getting more and more plausible....oh dear. And Brera revealed himself to be part of Galaxy's special forces.....hmmmm. Quote

PICS PICS PICS!!!!! Hope RAW goes out by the time I get home after work Quote
tali21 Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Really an epic episode! So much action! The few bits of reused animation did annoy me but atleast we got some VF-171 love *POWA PUNCH!* Im so curious to know what Brera says about Galaxy while Leon had that smirk on his face Quote
Shun Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 (edited) too bad one of the pixies had to go..... yeah, we didn't really get to know about the other 2 Pixies... maybe now we'll start to have more from the tomboy and then.... and vf-171 using the pin point barrier punch?! why did Ozma take a back seat to Alto?! Seems like Alto was leading Ozma instead, and Ozma didnt carry any Reaction missiles... wth? very nice ep. seems abit rushed though... this ep raised alot more questions... >.< Edited July 10, 2008 by Shun Quote
whispo Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 too bad one of the pixies had to go..... Yeah but I seriously expected more drama there, I mean one seccond she was gone and the next scene we're breaching a vajra mothership. And didn't Alto's vf-25 look hot with that armored pack on ? And can anyone confirm if that VF-171 pilot indetified himself as diamond force shotai? I'm pretty sure I heared him say that Quote

I can live with it.... quite minimal, compared to to some other mobile suit anime where EVERY week they reuse the same animation when a particular Mobile Suit is launched.... sheesh... Quote

tali21 Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 what about some super horrible subs to go along with the raw Quote
azrael Posted July 10, 2008 Author Posted July 10, 2008 Mod note: -The more I see spoiler tags not in use for the first 12 hours, the more I'm inclined to move it back to 24 hours. Quote
VF-25 Messiah Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Hmmm, no new op or ed yet. Anyway, what an episode! Battles! Lots! The Vajra Queen tried communicate with Ranka through an image of her mother singing aimo? (fart yeah! Sakamoto Maaya sings aimo, even if it was short. If they don't put that one onto an OST ill strangle someone ) Character deaths! (or what seemed like it) Is michel a goner? Luca? One of the pixies definately seemed to be gone Definately puts a lot of substance to the talk of Vajra as an intelligent species... Actually the indiscriminate nuking of them towards the end left me with a bad aftertaste... big big mistake happening kind of feeling. Grace was right that about hate burning brightly last episode... Once Ranka started singing they began ceasing their attacks, but everyone was too enraged to notice... Brera revealed himself to Frontier, having "Rescued the hostage and will now back up the Frontier forces"... Grace awakens in a clone body! Must be phase 2 in their plan.. (mutual annihilation of frontier and vajra?) Quote
whispo Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Hm.... come to think of it... i don't remember what exactly happened to Michael after both of them ejected? He refused to come back so that Klan Klan could come and save him Quote
tali21 Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 I didnt notice anyone go after poor michael but man is he going to be pissed when he see's what sheryl did to his 25 Quote
Major Focker Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 - vajra go boom boom. hope there's another hive somewhere otherwise i'm going to miss them - 171 is the new cool. did they get a weapons upgrade or did they just fight better with their backs against the wall? - looks like one of the pixies bit the dust. some of the vultures in the other thread will be disappointed there aren't more character deaths. - luca's fate isn't certain. you think he bit it too? didn't seem like a direct hit. i wonder who will nurse him? - they probably had to reuse a lot of footage and spent it instead on the huuuuge amount of rendering they must have used on all those ships - so brera finally broke with grace? seems he acted on his own initiative while grace was still downloading herself wooh! good luck sleeping tonight after that episode!

whispo Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Can anyone translate what Grace said when she woke up? Depending on what she said we might know if Brera acted on his own or according to plan. Btw was Brera asking Ranka why she cried? Quote
sketchley Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 yeah, we didn't really get to know about the other 2 Pixies... maybe now we'll start to have more from the tomboy and then.... and vf-171 using the pin point barrier punch?! why did Ozma take a back seat to Alto?! Seems like Alto was leading Ozma instead, and Ozma didnt carry any Reaction missiles... wth? very nice ep. this ep raised alot more questions... >.< Woah. Still realing from the effects of the fold bomb from last episode at the start. The episode kept layering on the punches after that. Holy multiple oversized reaction bombs, batman! Yeah, I was a bit shocked at the lack of development on the Pixy that bought it. Mind you, I was expecting Luca to buy it, after he said the magic words of "I've got something to say, and I'll say it to you after I get back." That's like running upstairs when you're being chased by a crazed killer. I think Ozuma didn't so much take a back seat, as be blown away at the aggressive piloting and devistation that Alto unleashed. I think he didn't get loaded with reaction missiles because he was out ahead of the Macross Quarter, and had to fly back/he was leading the troops; whilst Aruto was already landing to drop off Sheryl. I found it a bit of a stretch that not only did Aruto have the time to get his VF loaded with full armour packs, but also get reaction missiles AND talk to the girl. Anime physics affecting the passage of time anyone? And yes, still blown away at the high pace of the episode. It was one of those "hey, did what I think it did just happen?" Followed by another dozen or so of those. Quote
kalvasflam Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Wish I could've seen the episode live, will wait for RAW I guess. So, to no one's surprise, Grace lives. How will she explain her resurrection to Sheryl, unless she can somehow argue that she left the planet before hand, or is it well known that Grace has other bodies. And Grace is Ranka's mommy? Talk about a conflict of interest here As for Sheryl, from the screen shots posted, all I can say is poor Sheryl, looks like she's on the downhill path for a while. If Ozama is getting his pineapple salad, then it make sense to reduce his role for a bit, same thing happened to the previous recipient of the salad where there wasn't much part for him, and then just like that, he's gone. Can't wait for the subbed version. Quote
VF-25 Messiah Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Can anyone translate what Grace said when she woke up? Depending on what she said we might know if Brera acted on his own or according to plan. Btw was Brera asking Ranka why she cried? I'd have to rewatch it, since I didn't catch it. And yes he was. Quote
wolfx Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Pity that alot of characters too the back seat during the battle. Canaria and Ozma notably. And i was so glad Luca didn't confess yet.....he was THIIISSSS close to dying. And poor Maria. She didn't have any lines, and I was hoping she'll get some. Sigh. Quote
sketchley Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Hm.... come to think of it... i don't remember what exactly happened to Michael after both of them ejected? He was picked up by Luca, and presumably dropped off on the carrier at the same time as Sheryl was. Quote
MisaForever Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 NENE WAS KILLED????!!!!!! PLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEAAAAAAASSSSSSEEEEE tell me that you're ASSUMING she was killed and that you don't know for a fact. That's terrible!!!! Quote
