He has hardly done anything at all, so there's nothing for you to dislike. He's just "somewhat enigmatic masked man". The fact that you believe you know who he is makes you like him. Aside from his one scene of slaughtering faceless grunts, al he's done is stand around ominously and give vague answers to questions.

in raw potential compared to Mika yeah, but both of them haven't done jack this season. hell Takaki had more character screen time and development than most the main cast and he fucked off.

We KNOW he's Gaelio. IBO hasn't exactly been the most difficult show to figure out. Every single thing they've tried to play off as a twist or mystery is figured out pretty much immediately and long before the show reveals it.

Gaelio's development certainly has made him an interesting character to watch over time. So i can certainly see why people are invested in him.

It's like watching Garma come back from the grave for revenge on Char with an awesome Gundam and actual piloting skills.
>>
>>15022764
He's not, it's just that most people on /m/ can't tell the difference between style and substance.
>>
>>15023284
He has more substance than Mika.

Mika has no value as a character because he has no motivation or intentions. Even though Gaelio has done nothing but chat with another minor character we have a grasp on what motivates him and his general goal because of where the last season left off on.

Mika is literally nothing but style. He's a one trick pony that goes "it's killin time" when the plot needs to move on past some sort of conflict. Even Hush has more substance than him.

Same way that you can't tell a character has barely appeared much and has only had one minute appearances up until now.

Says a bit when we get threads like this which do prove people are following the development of specific characters and aren't interested in the protagonists.

He isn't though.

As for why you think so, it's because Gaelio was shat on in S1 unlike Tekkadan.

>>15023357
No it's more of a joke seeing as a most of them would probably want to strangle McGillis as much as Gaelio if they knew what he did.

Of course it is, there are actually robots in every episode, and they even fight.

Underwent a significant character arc in S1.

Has actual unresolved conflict and emotional investment in the goings on of the plot.

Is a pretty chill dude even though tons of bad things happened to him (gap moe)
>>
>>15022906
>It's like watching Garma come back from the grave for revenge on Char

That's pretty much what it is for me. Not being a fan of Tekkadan as they got more bloodthirsty near the end of S1 and not being a fan of McGillis, I found myself rooting for Galli Galli even though I knew he had no chance because he was notGarma.

But S2 has given him a chance to come out on top. And while I'm sure he'll get dicked over somehow, at least there's a shot.

Because he barely has any screen time and you're therfore free to project whatever headcanon you want on him. Honestly, I can't wait until he gets killed off for real and his fanboys will finally shut up about him.

Feel like the next episode is going to determine a whole lot in how the show inevitably treats his character throughout the season now that he's confronting his nemesis early.

If he keeps his cool he could become something quite special, but if he impulsively takes risks like Gaelio originally did it could spell another season of suffering for him.

I just feel like his affection for Ein overrules everything else. Whether you choose to look at it as romantic or as a big brother sorta thing.

Similarly to how his affection for McGillis had blinded him before.
>>
>>15026725
There was also the emotional preview in s1 with Gaelio talking about Ein with fondness.

It can be argued that he might have held some affection for Carta, though, but I personally didn't see it as full-on romantic.
>>
>>15026741
He seemed to have mutual respect with Ein.

It looked like he knew Carta was an idiot, but still thought of her as a friend.

He and McGillis seemed like best friends.

None of them seemed romantic.

He does act pretty fruity at times. No strong indication of being gay or heterosexual.

He has more in common with Char now than he remotely does with Glemy.

>Younger sister
>Rich influential background
>Victim of betrayal
>Wears a mask
>Wants revenge
>Custom MS
>Ace pilot
>Mentor to younger generation

Just face it, at this point Gaelio has taken over McGillis' role as the Char of the show.
