Another great episode full of both wierdness and great action scenes.

It seems that Bellri's mom just decided that since she's the only one against all this military stuff, she might as well go and join her son with the pirates.
The scene of her "accidentally" escaping was hilarious.

They have Luin (Mask is a stupid name) and his Mask Corps that is full of kuntalas that want to improve the standing of their people. Klim works his charms on Raraiya in order to get her to pilot the G-Self and find out what she can do. She can indeed fly it, but it will take some work before she can actively fight in battle. She does seem quite natural with the machine though. However, now that Raraiya is beginning to become more lucid, she's pretty cure and charming.

Also, we now meet the American Amerian army that has come to save the day after Bellri, Klim, and Aida are practically beaten by the Mask Corps.

Looking at next week, Bellri will reunite with his mom, Aida will reunite with her Dad, and Luin will show up again.

Haha... People were expecting an OP change this week... And it changed.

Though the only things that changed were the font of the staff roll and an added reused scene of Raraiya somewhere in the middle.

They're really going to push the whole "UC had cannibalism we never saw" bit, aren't they? Anyway, nice episode, I especially liked the intro of the new Armorzagan. So much fire power and epic win.

[Galaxian]

I feel that the pacing of this episode is a step back from the, small, improvements we had the last couple of eps.

[Skye629]

A battleship sized MA on the protags side?

YES PLEASE

Lol at Bell's mom's antics

It just really hit me that Hime-sama sucks at piloting......and Krim's Montero is really lacking



Anyways it seems both sides are secretly building up military power, the question is now though, which side has more manpower and industrial strength to fuel their war machines? At this rate it really is going to escalate into an all out war, and on top of that, Ameria personally intervened at the end of this episode.

Next ep should be interesting

[kuroihikari2]

Does the Montero violate the taboo?

Klim's arrogance + him losing to practically everyone who has a name is funny for now but it's going to get old after awhile.

[Esclair]

Random hippo laugh.

Klim can onlyl job.

[Benigmatica]

Surprised to see Raraiya pilot the G-Self again even since she appeared in Episode 1. As for Luin and his Kuntala Corps, they sure fight valiantly even though G-Self can pull something like firing a barrier-like beam from its chest.

Man, I feel that I wanna call G-Self as the prototype Turn A.

DAT LAUGH by Bellri's mom and her theatrics...LOL

We finally get actual segways this episode.

[Stark700]

Klim has become my favorite in this show now. Damn, I hope he better stay along for the entire ride.

Well, segways existed in the previous episode. And yes, Bellri's mother and her antics sure crack me up. Too bad that she might die on the next episode.

Yes. I've liked him from the beginning but gods this episode. He can sweet talk me with those "pertty eyes" (Yes, I do mean pertty. xD) anyday. I can't help but think he'd be a better gigolo then a pilot He goes around calling himself a genius, and yet gets beat by just about every named character. He still goes around calling Bellri boy, and then spends the first part of this episode sweet talking Rairaya into piloting the G-Self. I can't help but to enjoy all his antics.

Also those eye catches. Sunrise should just do a Gundam Dancing with the UC Stars type show.

episode 7

Seeing the Elf Bull unit in action was pretty cool.
Last epsiode Bellir killed his former instruct in battle, which cause him to feel bad. But this episode his over it. That was fast or may be there not showing it do time constraints.
Bellri’s mom is like while nothing to do here and jets out off the station in pretty nice ride.
I kind of find Klim a bit creep with his interaction with Raraiya. Raraiya is not in the best site of mind. Him using his charms to get her to pilot the gundam, while she full aware of what happening comes of a bit creep to me.

[Death Usagi]

Montero isn't some grunt MS, yet it is getting owned so easily... why... TAT

[Wandering Soul]

I couldn't help but lol at the way Belri's mom escaped. That entire act she put on was hilarious.

Also Klim Nick is one of the best parts of this show so far. The way he was sweet talking Rariya into piloting the G self and her nickname for him was just too much. It's also funny how he is so arrogant but loses to just about every named character.

[Haak]

I also found Bellri's moms escape highly amusing. Overall it was a very enjoyable episode except for two things:

1) Bellri himself unfortunately remains an unintentional enigma. I really hoped Dell's death would be the catalyst to get some more perspective from him and perhaps make him question why he's even on the damn pirate ship in the first place (let alone continue to be on it) but no, he just carries as if Dell's death never happened. It's like he's from a completely different planet or something.

2) Pro tip: Giving control of a powerful giant robot to the hands of a mentally challenged girl is definitely not a good idea. Unsurprisingly things didn't go well and it could have been so much worse thanks to an incredible lack of foresight from Klim Nick.

Speaking of Klim...man, I just don't know what to think of him now. He's still my favourite character but this really put me off him. Frankly I was incredibly uncomfortable with the way he was manipulating Raraiya into the Gundam. It actually struck me as kinda creepy (and I'm pretty sure that's what the story was getting at too) but the fact that he actually put Raraiya into such danger and the fact that it could've ended in such disaster really takes the cake. I sincerely hope someone calls him out on that because that was just seriously messed up.

[kuroihikari2]

I'm pretty sure Bellri's on the ship to spy on Amerian forces. Like the units they have at their disposal and whether they're breaking taboos. Last episode he was taking pictures of Amerian troop formations.

It does seem that he's slowly turning, though because he gets himself into all these battles.

[Haak]

Actually, I'm pretty sure Bellri spying on the ship is only a secondary reason and that he's primarily after the girl.

But even so, that's the problem though. Does Bellri consider spying on enemy forces worth the risk of killing his own friends? I doubt many people would say so and would definitely require some elaboration on Bellri's perspective. But unfortunately we don't get anything and the episode itself (other than the recap) essentially pretends that nothing happened.

[Boukenxha]

Lol the wacky adventures of Mommy Zenam, does it not felt like a throwback to old school anime? I wonder if his mother has "deflected" to join him, what reasons will Bellri have to return to the Capitol Tower and not pledge his service to Megafauna who has been good to him?

Also Haak brought up an interesting point about Klim Nick. I don't think he thought that far out and meant any harm but it is obvious the man is obsessed with the G-Self even though he can't operate it. He had acted out of order to let Bellri run out for tests with the G-self and pretty much the same motivation was behind this incident of letting Raraiya took the controls in the cockpit.
