Was he in on the plan to cook the science team with beam sabers

>>14746427
an MS beam saber seems like a quicker death than being riddled with bullets

>>14746435

It was an ingenious way to stop them from setting off the self destruct, they might have been able to set it off still if they had been shot.

Leave it to engineers to find a way to outsmart the enemy. I'm just curious if Cornelius was just buying for time or if he really wanted to make peace with the zeon crew.

>>14746442
The way he reacts afterwards and the way the one of the other guys complimented him afterwards, he definitely was in on it.

>>14746427
Feddies really are barbaric.

>>14746469

The only good zeek, is a dead zeek.

If they hadn't destroyed Side 4 in the first place none of that would have happened.

Beam saber us alot cleaner than gassing an enclosed structure in space, kill alot less people than dropping a colony on the Earth

If he was in on it, he wouldn't have been as shocked as he was when the ruse was finally enacted. As it was, he barely got his suit's helmet back on in time before the air vented. Note also that the other guys don't compliment him, specifically, but the plan itself: "It was a long shot, but it worked!"

No, the impression I got was that he stepped out of his own accord, or was elected by the others to play diplomat while they picked up comms with the units outside. In either case, it makes sense for him to be ignorant of the plan.

>>14746713

I interpreted it differently, seeing him breathe a sigh of relief, and then seeing the guilt on his face when he saw karla's traumatization.

I thought that he was saying that from his heart and the other guys saw it as a chance to take out some high up Zeeks and stop the self destruct.

Atleast they send plump teenagers instead of some handicaps to war.

War is hell. The Zeeks did some pretty terrible things during the course of the show too.

>>14748859
Isn't that a worse thing?

You deny the future of these kids.

>>14748925
No, since Zeeks destroyed their colony, denying the homeland of the so called fellow spacenoids, leading to this situation.

>>14746478
If the feddies never tried to hide and fight there, nothing would happen

>>14749024
>They are doing it to fight against the EF's oppression.

Pfft.
End game was kill fuck ton of people so that remainning will be under NK, led by supreme leader Gihren, after winning the civil war against Kyscillia.

>When Zeon win, they will restore these colonies.
And also the dead I guess.
They are going to kill many for being feddie collborator and sympathetizers anyway had war went their way.

We don't live in the universe when Spacenoid rebellion was a fun game played by a super AI under an anarchist society.

>>14749024
Right after they drop 5 more colony's on Earth, or better yet how about an astroid!

>>14746427
When Cornelius drops his gun, his buddies are genuinely surprised. There isn't a single panel that indicates Cornelis knows what's about to happen. I think the "you did it, Cornelius!" if that was the translation, is meant to beat in the irony that he was trying to do the exact opposite. Yet ultimately, it's not like he can get mad; everybody there is just happy to be alive.

Zeon is like american revolutionaries
Neon Zeon is like the Rebel alliance

The Titans are like israel mossad hunting down every zeek

They don't need to because I would be pretty much by that time war ends the way Zeeks were going for.

FTFY

Reminder that Zeeks believe that this is a dishonorable tactic while holding everyone hostage by saying you'll blow everyone up isn't.

>>14749038
>hiding

Or you know, protecting them from getting gassed to death like their neighbors in side 2.

Sure, why not.

Just because he was in on the plan doesn't mean he wouldn't still be shocked by seeing people vaporized before his eyes. He was just mechanic after all, I doubt he had seen that much death first hand before.

>mass-murdering entire colonies by gassing, annihilating entire cities with colony drops, destroying hospital ships fleeing said colony drops, these things are fine. But a surgical beam saber assassination? That's over the line.

>Was he in on the plan?

No. He was an engineer/maintainer, not a frontline combatant. It was pretty obvious that he wasn't which was a good thing because he probably would spoiled the plans somehow and the dirty zeeks would have gotten away or even worse he would've gotten his comrades killed.

>>14748907
Which is a running theme in Gundam. Done to varying degrees of success.

Except try to kill Nero which resulted in his death which made Angelo suicidal.

Good thing far-righters and nazis are too incompetent to accomplish anything :^)
