esmenetEpisode fifteen:
So, Trowa, when you say "I'll take care of it," what you really mean is "I will steal some poor bastard's bike, engage in high-speed chases down alleyways on it, drive it into the ocean, and tightrope-walk my way to safety on other people's clotheslines like it ain't no thing." Good to know!
I feel like there are a lot of apples in this show. Maybe I'm remembering wrong and it's just this episode?
AND NOIN APPEARS. YES. This show, unlike Avatar or FMA, is not made of ladies, but the ladies we do get are amazing! (And no, at no point will I stop talking about this. LADIES FOREVER.)
Treize: Zechs would never do anything to cause me trouble!
Zechs and Noin: *cause infinite amounts of trouble for Treize*
I like that Zechs is basically planning to go 'our last battle ended in you self-destructing, so I built you AN ENTIRE REPLACEMENT GUNDAM including bits from my own mobile suit. We can fight again! For fun! \o/' Zechs, for someone so serious, you are a hilarious human being. Like some sort of Katekyo Hitman Reborn character.
I just heard a character with a female VA giving orders! This supports my fanwank theory of female officers = yes, female footsoldiers = no.
Episode sixteen:
"The Sorrowful Battle". Something tells me this is not going to be a terribly cheery episode.
So, is there a particular reason they use 'ninmu' rather than 'meirei' in GW? I feel like it might be a particular trend or something, b/c I've never actually heard the word 'ninmu' outside of this particular series.
"I've never shaken hands with anyone before." Oh Heero, honey, I'd almost forgotten that you'd had kind of a terrible childhood.
"These Gundam pilots are desperate. They'll fight even if it costs their lives." Zechs, dear, they're fourteen-year-olds piloting weapons of mass destruction. What kind of people did you think they were.
I feel like someone should take it upon themselves tell Zechs that he is not actually in a Shounen Jump manga.
And I love that scene of Noin and Trowa essentially saying to each other that, yeah, it's a stupid fight that accomplishes nothing and we're just waiting for them to hurry up and figure that out.
Has Relena actually ever met Trowa? Or does she just know that there are other Gundam pilots?
RELENA AND NOIN TALKING POLITICS AND FAMILY DRAMA YES
"Please watch over my brother forever" Look, Noin, she trusts you! :DDD
"Glory to the colonies!" Zechs what are you even doing.
And now I have to finally return these DVDs I have kept for far too long. Let's all pretend I watched them really fast and typed up all these posts right away and am just posting them really slow. No piracy here, a'ight?

Date: 2012-02-08 04:01 pm (UTC)ALL OF ZECHS'S LIFE DECISIONS ARE THE MOST INEXPLICABLE. He's such a gigantic bishonen failboat; it cracks me up.
Noin, however, is the BEST ALWAYS. Well, no, that's Sally Po, but Noin is a close second. (I also love Relena. I pretty much love everybody. Except Treize, whom I always want to hit upside the head.)
I'm pretty sure Relena hasn't met Trowa yet. I could be forgetting something, but I thiiiink she's only met Heero and Duo.

Date: 2012-02-11 01:25 am (UTC)I feel like it's no surprise, really, that Zechs is voiced by Koyasu Takehito (aka KIRYUU TOUGA, as well as many, many other bishounen with dubious life choices).
Noin and Sally and Relena are my favorite things about this series, no lie. Treize, on the other hand, is one of those characters who seem really cool on first glance until you actually look at what they're doing and then you go: um, no. (See also: Ohtori Akio.)
