Gundam 00 Season 2: Episode 21

Spoilers:





- Saji asks Setsuna if he had to kill Anew. Setsuna says yes, and also mentions that something is confusing Louise. Saji says that Setsuna is somehow different. Yeah, his eyes are glowing! Of course, Setsuna's becoming an Innovator. I had a feeling this might happen...
- The crew decides to go to Lagrange 5.

- Wang yells at Hong Long for being stupid. Clears some stuff up, though.
- Nena comes and shoots at Wang, but Hong Long takes the bullet. Mmmm, watcha say. Ooo, Regene is with her.

Gundam 00 Season 2: Episode 11

Oops, I forgot to post this!

Spoilers:

Marina plays Santa Claus with the children. Sergei's alive! :) Tieria's hair is magically short again, just as it was magically long. Thanks, GN particles. Sumeragi questions Lasse about his health, because apparently he ain't doing so well. News to us too, Sumeragi. Tieria starts to tell everyone that he's an Innovator too, but Sumeragi grabs him by the shoulder to cut him off. She tells him that he's there comrade. Marina plays the piano with the children. Next week, she'll sing "Fields of Hope." Louise sees Barack-not-Obama's picture of his wife. She apparently died. And the death flags were raised for him too. Lyle flirts with Anew, who will be joining them on the ship. I don't really want Anew x Lyle, kthanx. Marie senses a Newtype flash, not it was not meant for her, it was meant for Anew. There are other people in Celestial Being? WTF? The base is populated with them! Okay, Linda is not joining the ship. I got that wrong again. I thought that she would be the one in the family to die, but then Ian ends up getting injured. Saji, along with his new buddy magenta Haro, goes to find him, and Ian's like, "You, 00 Raiser!" So Saji obliges and everyone's thinks WTF? He meets up with Setsuna, and then Setsuna kills Barack-not-Obama. Epilogue: I CAN SEE TIME, SETSUNA. Actually, Setsuna somehow got mixed up in Saji and Louise's nekkid psychedelic Newtype dream sequence. Now Saji knows that Louise is with the A-LAWS and she knows with with CB.

Gundam 00 Season 2: Episode 4

SPOILERS.


Some is the one that gave Allelujah his name, so she's the one to blame for it's strangness. Ian's daughter (Millenia?) asks if Setsuna and Marina are lovers, and they're both like "no." In denial, I see, LOL. Feldt's spying on Lyle. Haro like "Feldt likes Lockon!" Lyle decides, hey I'll take you and kisses her, but Feldt slaps him. He's being cruel to her, but he tells Haro it's to make her realize he's not Neil. Lyle's tired of being compared to Neil, and I think that it also makes him a little sad. Meanwhile, Allelujah's like "Let's get drunk, Sumeragi!" If he didn't already have Soma, I'd think he liked her. MISTAA BUSHIDO. For realz. Other masked man had, you know, actual aliases, but Graham is MISTAA BUSHIDO. Also, I realized that Andrei is voiced by Sai from Gundam SEED. Shirin wants to join the troops to look for Marina, and Marina wants Setsuna to come back with her. Ian put Saji to work. Allelujah confides in Sumeragi that he wants to find Soma/Marie, but she reminds him that she is the enemy. Sumeragi tells Allelujah that she doesn't know what she's fighting for. Grr, I still want them to reveal what horrible thing she did in her past. So Hallelujah is gone, it seems. Sumeragi angsts with her CB photo again, and mentions an Emilio, who was according to some official source out there, was a former boyfriend of hers. I sense a rivalry forming between Sumeragi and Kati (Murrue and Natarle, anyone?) Although Sumeragi made it to the bridge and kicked ass. IT'S A GUNDAM! Dude, I think we all know that Mister Bushido is Graham. Marina and Shirin reunion! After the ED: Billy gets his revenge on Sumeragi by joining A-LAWS. Meanwhile, her uniform doesn't fit her, LOL (I will be cosplaying the uniform that does fit her, as seen in the OP, sorry guys). Billy's like REVENGE. Preview: Things get blown up.

Gundam 00 Season 2: Episode 3

AHOY. THAR BE SPOILERS.


Poor Marina's being interrogated. I love the name of the episode. "Allelujah Rescue Mission." Look, it's Obama! ...and he's talking to Amuro Libbonz (and yes, he will always sound like Amuro to me...) Soma goes to Allelujah's cell, and he's like "Hi, Marie!" She's like, WTF, no! I like Soma better this season... Lyle called Tieria cute, LOL. Feldt is sad, Sumeragi angsts in her room with beer cans, gazing at a photo of the old CB. Soma and Sergei are still in contact, despite her transfer to A-LAWS. Luckily, news that Allelujah's been found gets Sumeragi to come out of her room. Does she had a fridge in her room full of beer? At least she made them a mission plan. Tieria's kind of, "BTW, Setsuna, but your potential love interest Marina is also being held in prison." Lyle is already bonding with Haro. Turns out that Lyle is a pretty good shot, of course. Yay, Allelujah! The new Ptolemais can go under water... where have I seen that before? Allelujah has the panda eyes, but his words make Soma flashback to the days when she was called Marie. Setsuna saves Marina. It seems that Lyle let Kataron in on the mission... perhaps they will be allies with CB? I really like the ending theme, but don't like that they show it before the actual end of the episode. The scene with Allelujah and Tieria with the coffee was really nice. Although when Lyle walked in, Allelujah was all "Lockon, WTF?" Then Marina and Setsuna have a scene. Preview: Lyle puts the moves on Feldt. Wonder what Allelujah and Sumeragi (still not in uniform) are talking about (yes, I have vested interest in Sumeragi, but that's because I'm cosplaying as her and I need her in the uniform!).

Gundam 00 Season 2: Episode 2

CAUTION: THERE ARE SPOILERS!

Gundam 00 Season 2, Episode 2

Lyle calls Neil his "nii-san." Lyle didn't know Neil's dead. :( Kati is surprised to see Soma, and that she's joined A-LAWS. There is a "red" Haro now. Sumeragi's pouring herself another one, but Billy takes it from her and complains about having to care for her. Then she saids, "See you, Billy. Thanks for the last two years, good-bye." He tells her to wait, calling her "Kujou," that he didn't mean it that way, and then Setsuna rings the doorbell. Billy is surprised that she told someone about this place. Billy seems to think that Setsuna will cheer her up, and wants to invite him to dinner. Setsuna uses her codename, and spills CB secrets. Good one, Setsuna. He does it so that she has nowhere to hide. Saji learns that it was the Thrones that attacked Louise's family. Sumeragi doesn't want to go back to CB, so Setsuna holds her by the wrist to make sure that she does. They meet with Lyle, and Sumeragi's like WTF? Setsuna starts to introduce him as Lyle, but then Lyle interrupts and calls himself Lockon. At least she knows that he's Neil's brother. Marina gets arrested! Hong Rong! It's been a long time. Nena calls Wang "Ojou-sama." Meanwhile, Loran Regene and Amuro Libonze bring back 1960's and '70's fashion. Saji wears his ring on a necklace. Epic battle timez! We are Gundam! The ending sequence is depressing as all get out, but I love the song! ... but wait, there's more again - They welcome back Sumeragi. And then they all see Lockon (they includes orange Haro!) But Sumeragi tells them it's Neil's younger brother. Angry Billy is angry. And drunk. Preview: Time to rescue Allelujah... who is calling Soma's real name... Marie.

Gundam 00: Episode 23

SPOILERS. SPOILERS. SPOILERS.



Well, I saw the spoiler pics for this episode. I.... can only hope that Lockon can pull a Mwu. That's all that there is to it. Words fail me. I thought that he was safe because of his earlier injuries. But then again, look at Ryu. Suffice it to say, I'm already heartbroken, and I will be watched this episode through my fingers. See, Lockon, they were trying to protect you, you idiot. A bit off topic, but I'd like to point out that I don't like that they introduced almost all the characters (major and minor) within the first few episodes. Trinity and Kati were pretty much the only characters introduced later, and it's kind of a pain. Okay, Lockon's stuck out somehow, and has found Ali now... this does not bode well.... especially because you are purposefully leaving your mobile suit, WTF. At least Haro didn't get blow to smithereens. HE PROMISES HARO THAT HE WILL COME BACK. OH SHIT. And then he lovingly pets Haro. :( :( Okay, then he does something stupid, my hands were in front of my eyes, I didn't really see it. Now he flashbacks to his family... his sister's name was Amy. And his twin doesn't really look like him. It's Christmas dinner. And he's monologuing. sdhglsduhgiusdhyk If his brother's name is Lyle, I'm expecting Mr. Muggles to make an appearance. But seriously, if his brother replaces him, I am going to be more upset than I already am. Lockon does not equal his brother. You just can't replace people. There's more to him that his good looks. SETSUNA, YOU HAVE TO SAVE HIM. NOW. What explodes? WHAT EXPLODES? soghsodhfousdhyfpousdyh Haro returns to the ship. And keeps repeating his name...

In all seriousness, the only reason I like this show was because of Lockon. So all I can hope is that he pulls a Mwu. I know it's impossible - he is NOT Mwu. But I was in denial over Mwu's "death", so I'll try not to give up hope. And I think that majority of the fans hope that he is still alive - he's the only thing keeping this show together for me.

Gundam 00: Episode 22

SPOILERS.

On Friday spoiler pics for were revealed! Lockon is indeed alive... and not blind. Well, not totally blind. Instead, he's like Roy Mustang in the Fullmetal Alchemist movie - he's got an eyepatch. I'm extremely happy he's alive, and not totally blind, but not another eyepatch. Seriously. Some people really like that, but I really don't. Maybe it's because I have a professor with an eyepatch


Comments from watching the episode: Lockon could be healed if he stayed in the "healing pod" but he doesn't want too, because he wants to fight (with Haro's help) and also doesn't want Tieria to be all mopey. Tieria is crying. :( And staring out the window. I really liked the scene with Tieria and Lockon in the hallway. Lockon mentions that it;s human to make mistakes. Feldt noticed that Lockon is kind to everyone, not just her, ie, her feelings are not returned. Still don't know what's up with Wong. Meanwhile, Saji's emo. Ali killed Michael. YES! And then steals his Gundam and kills Johann with pretty sparkles. Even Ali acknowledges that it's pretty. Alejandro and Amuro find a frozen Aelio, and yes, I know that's spelled wrong (reminds me of Dr. Kasshu from G Gundam, a bit), and Alejandro shoots the hell out him with Treize's gun. However, Aelio has a a hologram that gives all GN drive suits an upgrade. Trans-Am. LOLz. I don't like that Lockon's going to piloting next episode. He needs to go in the healing pod. If there's a time lapse between the seasons, Lockon better have been in that pod for the time lapse, and he better be healed in the next season.

Gundam 00: Episode 21

SPOILERS AHOY.

First of all, I know that Lockon gets injured in this episode. I'm weak when it comes to spoilers. Okay now. Kinue's really dead, and poor Saji has to identify the body. Patrick's so goofy, it's ridiculous. Sumeragi apparently thinks that if she can work better drunk, than so can Christina and Feldt. Apparently Tieria is a robot, er android. Or something. He has this obsession with being "human," and apparently was about to say that he thought that Lockon figured this out. Hmm. Meanwhile, Setsuna has a dream with Marina in it. So, Livonze and Alejandro manage power down the Gundams using Veda. But Sumeragi was able to change the power over to the the ship's back up system. But the Virtue is still down. Uh huh, I think that this is it... prepare for impact!! Holy damn, it's Patrick who does it, trying to get Tieria. But Lockon goes all noble to protect Tieria. sdkghsgiusgfishdf Haro's apparently alright, because he's reporting that Lockon's injured... eeeeeeeee. gsgdfshdfjh So, I'm going to guess that the rumors about Lockon losing his sight are right. And it better just be his sight, and not his life.

Gundam 00: Episode 17

This episode was much better than the last episode.

Nena stealing Setsuna's first kiss was very.... interesting. Evil Haro think's the Orange-kun (like Pink-chan, get it?) is her brother. Apparently Orange-kun is missing memories. Who knows, maybe Lockon had to reset Haro. People have been saying that Nena is like Puru, and I can see it a bit. She's genki, but has a mean streak. Michael pushes some of Allelujah's buttons by calling him an "altered human." At least he didn't switch with Hallelujah. Sumeragi's afraid that they're getting "fired." Tieria is mad that Nena's in his secret computer room thing. I have a feeling that Louise's cousin's wedding is going to be bombed. >_< Well, at least Louise will get some characterization.

Gundam 00: Episode 16

I forgot to say this last time - I like how Setsuna actually says "Gundam" as opposed to "gandamu." It's cute. Not that I don't like the Japanese way. Also, as much as I like Tommy, the OP is too much Tommy and don't very Gundam. But maybe I'll change my mind. And then Setsuna said "Gundamu". Hee. I guess that he practiced that for that other line and said screw it for the rest. Trinity is introduced. Nena (Al's voice from from Fullmetal Alchemist), Michael (Al from Gundam 0080 and Ulquiorra from Bleach), and Johann (Kamina from Gurren Lagann. Patrick almost died back there. Nena's Haro scares me. It's gotnon-Haro eyes. But this episode was mainly flashback. Just as long it doesn't have as many flashbacks as Gundam SEED Destiny.

Gundam 00: Episode 14

New opening and ending with this episode.

New OP by the brilliant green! Yay for Tommy! The PV has Haros in it. I like the song, but it's not as good as "Daybreak's Bell." Okay, episode time. Lockon had a short flashback. <3 THANK GOD, LOUISE'S MOM WENT GOING HOME!!! Oh look, it's Setsuna, trying to bring some meaning to these characters. Patrick got the Zeta Punch from Natarle's evil older sister. Her name's Kati. And now Patrick wants her. Sumeragi and Billy go out for dinner. He doesn't know that Sumeragi's with CB. I don't like them as a paring. Ali shaved, and now he's hard to tell him apart from Patrick. ED time: The songs alright, by Stephanie. But why is Lockon cutting Setsuna's hair... on a beach? It doesn't fit. While Allelujah peels a apple and Tieria (of all people) fires up the BBQ. Or does experiments. Scissors fall in the tide, and then the water is red. And now emo/angst time for Tieria, Allelujah, Lockon, Louise, and Marina. The lyrics apparently say "If life goes on." IF. Then the Meisters are on the beach again, but it's night, and Haro is sitting next to the scissors. IF LOCKON DIES, I WILL CRY BUCKETS OF TEARS.

Gundam 00: Episode 9

As always some spoilers. I do not know how to do the Blogger version of an LJ-cut, so please bear with me.






So, either Lockon has a twin (or simply a brother). Or a clone. Which would be very SEED like (although Puru had a clone too in Gundam ZZ). Speaking of SEED, there are multiple Haro's like in SEED. They are mechanics?

Okay, I know that many people think that Lockon and Felt are going to be a couple. But I think that they will have more of a brother-sister relationship. Felt reveals that her parents were members of the Order of the Phoenix, I mean Celestial Being. Lockon's real name is apparently Neil, which means me think of... Neil Diamond. LOL. Allelujah is switching personalities again! What is his connection to Soma?

Gundam 00: Episode 8

A few spoilers~~~

We got a tiny Lockon flashback this week. Yup, looks like his parents was killed when he was a kid. :( Allelujah questions Sumeragi's choice of swimsuit. Aww, Felt likes Haro. Setsuna goes and reveals himself, but for what reason? (other than being stupid). Lockon's a in suit next episode.... delicious.

Gundam 00: Episode 4

It looks like I've actually got some readership! *waves to the readers*

Soma, Super Soldier Number 1, is awfully tiny for a super soldier. It will be very interesting to see her play out into the storyline. I'm thinking that Marina's adviser is an evil adviser. It seems like this series will focus more on politics rather than battles. Is Allelujah a Newtype? The preview hints at it.

And oh, I really like orange Haro. Not as much as green Haro, but orange Haro is pretty awesome (as is Lockon, hee hee).

I'm back.

Okay, I've been back for awhile, but now I really am going to post things.

I'm still trudging along with Turn A Gundam. It just doesn't seem like a Gundam series to me, sorry. I understand that a lot of people think it's awesome, but perhaps leaving it for last has led to have certain expectations when it comes to Gundam.

That being said, let's take a look at Gundam 00.

First, check out the info on Gunota, and form your own opinion.

Okay, now for mine:

*I already don't like that the captain of the ship isn't really a "captain". Reminds me too much of Bright and Murrue. And while I love them to death, I'd really like the captain to be different. Well, Murrue is very different in character from Bright. But I was kind of wishing for a more Gundam X set up in the way of captain. While it seems that the captain-lady is non-military, she's got this (I'm just going to say it), "I've got to be sexier than Murrue!1" vibe I don't like. But this is bad, since the captain character is often my favorite.

* All the girls seem to be boobalicious. Fanservice much?

*Other character's include a celebrity (Lacus, anyone) and a princess (because you can't have Gundam without one). The fact that there is a celebrity and a princess is waaaaay too SEED for me. The celebrity is Chinese and aged 17. The princess is luckily 24. We've also got some students in there (SEED again?!)

*Haro (yes, Haro) is yellow-orange in this series Mobile Suit Gundam size, and is... wait for it... Lockon's partner! Lockon's the oldest and he gets the Haro! At least the Haro's in every timeline, go to different types of characters. Maybe he will tell Haro his secrets, LOL.

Well, I'm going to try and watch this series with an open mind, but that's going to be hard.
