>everyone getting fucked by MAs and some more

he's got the heroic unit, which is useless on its own, it would make sense if he also manufactured some conflict/disaster to go with it.

Unless he really was retarded all along.

So now galio knows choco was assblasted the whole time he thought they were friends. What are the odds he feels sympathetic or even changes sides when he realizes no one tried to help choco, making him into the man he is, as well as feeling guilty over how little he actually knew about choco from the beginning.


So is atra confirmed preganat? all i get is that they tried and are waiting.

Zack left tekkadan, is he the only one with enough brain cells to understand that shit is hitting the fan and none of them is going to live?
>>
>>15309912
I dunno. I suspect his smile at Gallahorns surrounding him and tekkadan is because now tekkadan has no choice but to fight and thats when they're at their best. he think's he'll win because tekkadan tends to win when their backs are to the wall and they can only go forward. Unlike the previous battle when retreat was an option.
>>
>>15309925
Dunno if Rustal even goes planetfall.

Nah. Gaelio is full Revengeance Mode.

Also it's not confirmed, but it's implied. Also Mika doesn't know if he did shoot into the moment where Atra wouldn't have her safe-day.

>>15309936
Why do you think everyone knows what Iznario did with Mcgillis? They probably just said that Iznario adopted him, nothing more.
>>
>>15309947
Its more to do that he's the only one who had a place to go. He only joined tekkadan to be seen as cool, others joined since they had no where else to go.

Zack represents the naivety of normal people who never suffered a day in their lives and think that problems will settle themselves if they run away. Not realising that the problem will still exist for someone else and that they're the ones who'll suffer in his place.

Unlike the rest, Zack has a family (dad), an education and he has other options to ensure his happiness and survival.

The rest are those who have no skills, no family, no education and are seen as lower than trash that no one in a medium standard of living would want them. THe big guy is an actual criminal and murderer since it was probobly his way of earning a living and tekkadan took him in anyway with the intention of gaining a positive rep that would provided jobs where he and others no longer had to kill or fight. Hush comes from the ghetto and had to live on scraps with only other children to care for him, and most of tekkadan are the same.

There is no real charity on mars to give people a chance to become something better even if they have nothing to their names. Thats what makes tekkadan different because they look after the lowest of the low and gives them skills and abilities that can help them become responsible adults.

Zack had a brain. He should of used it to realise just what sort of people he was talking down to. They got nothing else. They dont have families. They can either die fighting for a future, or they can die on the street like rats. They clearly chose to die fighting on their feet, than live on their knees.

I have a hard time separating my wishful thinking from cold hard reasoning on the matter but I'll try. Since this is the end of the series their plotline has to climax somewhere, and the subject is guaranteed to be touched upon at some point. Now whether that will culminate in Gaelio changing sides (very low odds) or Gaelio craddling Macky's almost corpse (higher odds) that remains to be seen.

Yea, but don't you think Galio would do some more digging about Choco?

The man he considered to be a friend and was taken in because he was an illigitament child, all of a sudden turns out to have no real relation to the seven stars. Galio wanted to know chocos ambition, so it makes sense that he'd want to know what sort of man choco really is at heart and how he became what he is.
i doubt he's just going to leave it at 'he was adopted'. he's going to want to know why and where he was from as well. And since chocos adopted dad hates choco, whatever intel smears choco even more is likely to be divulged. Being a sex worker, adopted for sex would definetly smear chocs position in gallahorn.

Seriously? That's the reason why you'd drop this show? Not to mention 3 episodes away from the end?
I would have dropped in S1 because of Kudelia's character but for better or worse I liked the Gallarhorn side too much.
>>
>>15310034

>dropping the show with less then 5 episodes left.

Tekkdan and McGillis have to be able to hurt Rustal and his fleet at some point in time. Iok might actually have his MS get disabled, escape, then live to fight again.

Even if he did the odds he found out are low. He was in hiding, and the only guy he could have asked was Rustal, and I'm pretty sure he wouldn't go for him for information on McGillis. I mean, if I were Okada I would keep a reason for Gaelio to be more lenient toward McGillis away from him for most of the series so he can go full edge and only disclose it toward the end of the series for maximum drama.
But then again he didn't have much of a reaction or focus this episode, it's hard to say whether he knows, and if he does, since when.
>>
>>15309995
>>15310022
I've been thinking about this kind of scenario ever since the episode where Rustal saw Macky's hickeys. I was pretty convinced Gaelio would never even hear about it because I couldn't think of a way for it to come out except for Rustal saying something, and I couldn't think of why or when he'd say it. So right now I'm both surprised and cautiously optimistic that something will come out of it.

Guys with Mackie alone in the desert it's sure that he's planning sth(would be cool if it was MA)

It could be he's going to awaken MA, then slay it and gain Order of the Seven Stars or whatever.

Or he'll wake it just to make some carnage.

But who knows, aside of Rustal's WTF face in the preview nothing else suggests it

To end a season or cour with a death scene and bring that character back to life without a strong plot-related reason seems like the definition of an asspull to me, which in my opinion is poor writing. Not speaking for the writing-level of the whole series, but just for how the last two episodes from season 1 were handled. I'm not condemning the whole series, not just yet.

Maybe. Galio is so deadset on killing Macky so that they can "understand each other", now theres a new chapter of Mcgillis he never knew about. If he was serious about understanding Mcgillis, he'd make time to find out more about Mcgillis, or probobly ask him directly in their next confrontation.

Not sure if that'd turn him though, but it's likely he'd want to know more about him.

I haven't been watching IBO, so I won't pretend I know anything.

But how hard are they actually pushing the harem thing? It's literally the only thing I've heard about the show as someone who's not watching it. Did Okada become a Mormon at some point?

Just to throw in way too many points

Pro
Good Mech design
Interesting setting and ideas
Character and politics focused
Does try and break gundam conventions
No beam spam, melee focused combat

Cons
Would rather tell you repeatedly than show
Consistently poor animation
Fights are sparse at times (more so season 1)
Setting and ideas not always fully explored or utilised
Many don't find the character's development satisfactory
Rather predictable
Many plot points can feel like asspulls (long lost brothers, any time someone "dies")

Looks like Okada fixed those problems up, maybe a bit delayed, but hopefully she can properly kill off in a more timely manner the others who received asspull plot armors, as those listed below:

But his life was still shit after meeting him. Moreover McGillis hasn't aknowlegded the uneasiness and tiredness he felt after "killing" Gaelio as guilt. He's literally autistic. If anyone is gonna make the first step, it's gonna be Gaelio.
But then again, we had a full intern pov sequence that explained Gaelio's feelings for McGillis, but we never had one for Macky's feelings for Gaelio. I trust it's bound to come up in the few episodes that remain.

He's trying to push the blame onto outsiders. McGillis isn't a real member of the Seven Stars, he's been leading a group of outsiders (who, gasp, use the forbidden AV system!) to undermine Gjallarhorn right from the start. Members of Gjallarhorn who'd rather not reflect on whether or not Gjallarhorn could really use some reform can latch onto this line of reasoning to escape reflection.

>>15310386
Great villains, but only average protagonists
First half feels like its there just to create the setting for the second, more interesting, half. The story focuses on characters with tragic character flaws that they can't change and does this well but it can be too melodramatic when it comes to the resolution of these character arcs.

That would be nice, but rather classic. I have another idea.
Remember when in Code Geass R2, Lelouch was at his lowest after the united states ceremony and he turns to Amnesiac CC for advice? Then she tells him to ask his friends for help. Because "friends are allies". And Lelouch just calls Suzaku and they meet up.
Something like that for Gaelio and Macky would be nice.

>But then again, we had a full intern pov sequence that explained Gaelio's feelings for McGillis, but we never had one for Macky's feelings for Gaelio. I trust it's bound to come up in the few episodes that remain.
I keep praying for this. The fact that Macky's flashback sequence didn't touch on Gali or Carta at all felt really suspect to me, especially since Gali got to explain his feelings later that same ep. I have no idea how they'll squeeze in a scene like that for Macky in the remaining time, but they need to do something.
>>
>>15310605
It doesn't have great villains. It has a meme in Iok, loli bait in Julietta, Gali Gali who isn't even a villain and McGillis who is butthurt. The villains are especially bad if you count season 1 which had some of the worst villains in all of Gundam.

Pro's:
Unique take in Mecha Design
Does not use the standard Gundam tropes in the standard way.
The Universe is down to earth compared to other Gundam series.
Melee-centric battles with no real beam weapons gives a whole new feel
Terrific Villains and side characters.
MC is unlike other Gundam MC's in that he is very bland and very lethal.
No stock footage in fight scenes
Universe has tons of growth potential.

Cons:
a Drama show, not an action show.
Animation is full of tweening
Viewers may not like the very normal-feeling characters
Plot twists and the like seem very far-fetched.
Obvious pandering to trends in culture.

And even the opinions are seen in other entries, like how igloos says it's designs are boring and uninteresting, when I find the Zudah to be very cool.

Pro:
Child soldiers pilot the gundams.
Attempt to depict child soldiers and their circumstances realistically.
Excellent subversion of the Char clone, whose traits are divided between two characters.
Depiction of atypical romantic relationships.
Realistic universe.

Cons:
Unlikeable main cast.
Terrible princess
Poor pacing
Average animation
Throaway villains
Plot induced stupidity
Forced drama
Too many sympathetic characters die
An oppressive sense of meaniglessness.

>>15310386

Pros:
-Excellent, creative mecha design
-Interesting setting ripe with potential
-A morally ambiguous, gritty take on Gundam
-Some of the more interesting and original Char clones in the franchise

Cons:
-Abysmal pacing
-Protagonists either unlikable or ineffectual
-Poor animation
-Characters, protagonists and antagonists alike, are very underdeveloped
-Bizarre and uncompelling central romance
-Lack of good fights spread out among the cast
-Many of the best parts of the setting left unexplored or underutilized
-Absurd amounts of plot contrivance

>With bullets going off in space? With space rats unaffected by Earth's gravity or diseases?
I meant politically. The world holds itself together, the different powers that be balance and interact with one another well. The collusion between Arbrau and Gallarhorn in S1 was a nice touch, and I especially like Nobliss, not for himself, but for what he represents.

>Good Mech design

>Does try and break gundam conventions
All of these are highly subjective. Quite honestly they're wrong as well.

>Good mech design
Completely varies from person to person, and as well they're pretty fucking devisive throughout the season, from the exposed waists, the high heels, stupid feet in general, etc.

>Character and politics focused
Every gundam tries for that short of G, and it did that by almost accident anyways because the mecha are less important than Domon's hot blood.

>Interesting setting and ideas
It's not, it's really not. The setting is just about the same as X, UC, just updated to 21st century perspectives. The Calamity War is just a lame plot excuse to re-use the same MS frame for gunpla over and over, and we even see tech from that time hasn't meant much from Hasmal and a lot of MS having honestly a fair chance of surviving its beam attack if they weren't meant to explode as mooks.

>Does try and break gundam conventions
No, no, no it doesn't. It's Okada TRYING to do so, but ends up falling back onto her old standbys with her homages (particularly in not-Garma being betrayed by lol-pedowaifu-chocolate-Char) turning into parodies. The cast is way too big and honestly way too retarded at every faction to call this anything short of just stultifyingly stupid hack work that Okada honestly probably didn't put too much effort to beyond most likely scripting canned plot twists (e.g. oh look betrayal, oh no a friend died, etc.) first and then filling in the gaps to make a two-cour gundam series.

It's like Wing but with none of the sociopathic panache that it managed to pull off in how retarded it was.

Any list we make will be subjective, simply a matter of our own opinions. Even if we were to make a detailed review tackling all the necessary points, I know there are people out there who would disagree with said points and accuse us of just being contrarian.

I give the show thus far a 7/10, btw. 6.5 for s1, 7.5 for s2. Hell, I know people who would say s1 is the stronger season and s2 is just a bunch of hack writing to fuck over Tekkadan.

Are you retarded?

>Racism is discrimination and prejudice towards people based on their race or ethnicity. Today, the use of the term "racism" does not easily fall under a single definition.

>ethnicity
An ethnic group or ethnicity is a category of people who identify with each other based on similarities, such as common ancestral, language, social, cultural or national experiences. Unlike other social groups (wealth, age, hobbies), ethnicity is often an inherited status based on the society in which one lives. In some cases, it can be adopted if a person moves into another society. Membership of an ethnic group tends to be defined by a shared cultural heritage, ancestry, origin myth, history, homeland, language or dialect, symbolic systems such as religion, mythology and ritual, cuisine, dressing style, art, and physical appearance.

Well the mama point was towards Char who's actions all stem from her death and losing her a second time with his surrogate (Lalah).

To be 100% honest, I used to despise McGillis for being a massive asshole to Ein, Carta and Gaelio and wanted him dead since season 1. But know? I don't really feel much like that anymore. I mean, there's still not excuse for trying to kill Gaelio but after seeing his past I feel more sympathy for him. Besides, he hasn't betray anyone in Season 2, even Tekkadan. This episode showed that Rustal is a big asshole for wanting to leave no survivors, so now I want him to die and for Tekkadan to not lose so many important members anymore. I still want Julietta and Gaelio to survive tho, but Rustal and Lok can go fuck themselves for all I care.

I did not expect Atra and Mika to actually have sex. I thought they'd just draw that on endlessly without any conclusion.

I was totally thinking in my head: "Orga should just give up McGillis and live on happily ever after with Tekkadan." So I was shocked when he actually did it, and even more shocked when Rustal refused. I guess he took it very personal with Tekkadan when they almost blew him up.

I have to laugh at the faggots that say the show is predictable.
Certain character arcs are, but the overall plot is unconventional. If you're going to tell me that you knew from the start that Tekkadan would botch the big battle, high-tail it back to Mars and attempt ID forgery, you are a goddamn liar.
There are other examples:
>the knowledge that Gaelio would return in the interim between seasons and how his character would change

You can say it was just fanboys and girls desperately hoping their fave character wasn't actually dead, but people had been saying so long before Vidar's first appearance in the OP blatantly confirmed such.

>Was similarly guessed at for ages, especially after the little blonde boy in Izanario's limo near the end of S1
I remember the threads after this scene were hilarious because so many people tried to deny they were hickeys or that there was anything sexual about Iznario's abuse, even when the blond shota got brought up. IBO threads are consistently full of some of the most delusional people I've ever seen.

>A subversion by playing it straight

The antagonistic mask is the Garma while McGillis is the CCA persona, who becomes Quattro in the latest episode. He got his legitimacy and position by selling his ass rather than thanks to his own military competence. He pretended to be of noble birth for most of his life instead of pretending to be a pleb for most of his life.
Not to mention his masquerad didn't require an actual mask, his mask was his own face. I'm pretty sure that's what these weirdly framed shots of his face, which are growing more frequent, mean.

>>
>>15311646
>>15311663
I was getting at how far the show was willing to go. They didn't just imply pedophila, they openly show the aftermath of it and go even farther. McGillis had been selling his ass and backstabbing people even before Iznario came along. That's the part nobody actually thought would be shown. Everyone just assumed it would stay within the realm of implication.

>>15311660
>>15311663
I was there. People were extremely upset with Gaelio's "death" in season 1. I remember a lot of people thinking it could go either way and a real air of relief when the masked man did show up.
But there's a follow-up point: Nobody thought he was being groomed to be the actual Char of the show, while Macky really has more in common with guys like Paptimus Scirroco or Alejandro Corner

Atra used to work in a whorehouse. Tekkadan memebers use prostitutes very often, too. I think these two could figure out sex. Just because they don't think about having kids as much as our society would have you expect, doesn't mean they don't know how to do it.

He's probably just bitching about all the fujobait in a PC way

Even if he was the best anything in a pile of shit, that would make him the best piece of shit, not a "terrific villain"

>Hell, I know people who would say s1 is the stronger season and s2 is just a bunch of hack writing to fuck over Tekkadan.
It is tho. If they didn't asspull Gaelio's survival over in this season, we'd be having McGillis and Tekkadan with probably total victory soon. But then they wouldn't have to force Orga into learning the exact same lesson they taught Kudelia last season or see Tekkadan lose for the first time after which they try to betray McGillis even after deliberately building up a reputation of them fighting the riskiest situations to the end. Worst part is, I still don't think they learned their lesson after all this. They just realized they lost back by earth, and are doing everything to clean up their accounts on Mars for them to scurry away and escape. I think I'm starting to see why everyone calls them space rats, because all they are, are rats.

Always thought Zechs was the best copy.

S1 was infinitely worse because it had pretty much all the same problems S2 has with the addition of being mind numbingly boring.

>legitimacy and position by selling his ass rather than thanks to his own military competence
No one gets their position in Gjallajorn due to competence. Its literally all due to knowing one of the Seven Stars or being in one of the Seven Stars families
>>
>>15311921
Yeah, best parts of S1 was the beginning when they were on Mars and when they were in the Dort colony

>No one gets their position in Gjallajorn due to competence
I was implying by contrast with the original Char.

>Gaelio

Rustal, Iok and the almighty Dainsleif have been the most influential Gjallarhorn-allied characters this season. In comparison, Gaelio has done very little.

Uhh buddy? After Gaelio supposedly "died," people were posting the webm here and a bunch of us noticed McGillis only hit the side of the cockpit. The same side actually Gali's scars are on. It's not so much an asspull as it is subtle enough that it's easy for people to miss.

> But then they wouldn't have to force Orga into learning the exact same lesson they taught Kudelia last season

Yeah, because look what Orga's character growth was last season. He didn't learn to be a good leader, he simply opted for trying to be the leader he believed his men wanted him to be. This season has been about breaking down the myth of leaders like him or Kamina.

>>15311977
Oh yeah, you're right. I misread your post. Makes more sense now
>>
>>15311999
If it weren't for Gaelio, Rustal wouldn't have baited out McGillis and McGillis would've kept more support within Gjallajorn without Gaelio revealing what McGillis had done. He may not be the weight behind the meat, but Gaelio's survival is very pivotal in this season and had it not happened, many characters' actions would've been different

Its confirmed in the hg manual

>>15310713
Gaelio knew something was wrong and mentioned it, but Macky ignored it.

He actually did help in his own way by letting him stay over often.

He certainly went though Char's entire story arc much more believably, or at least easier to swallow since it wasn't spread over two series and a movie.

Espeically if they had characters that looked like Lafter and Fumina
