Ragnarok was pretty much what the original story of Ragnark entails, and there were some nice parallels with Josh-A here.

Personally I found it very nice how they seamlessly made Shinn into a warmonging lunatic, no better than those before him who took the lives of his family.

Also, Athrun makes the whole Archangel outfit look good.

I'm just guessing here, but it's either Shinn opens his eyes or they end up casting him as a "could've been great hero but turned into mindless puppet" character. Can't wait to see Kira + Athrun's next set of Gundams though. Another week! ;D

Ahem.

The new Gundams and their specifics are already out.

∞ Justice

Strike Freedom

You'll see Strike Freedom in the next episode most likely, but you'll have to wait a bit for the Justice.

Looks alot like the old one. Though it's nice they both have shields as well now (waha, take that Shinn).

I am not really fond of how Shinn's character is progressing. I can understand the reasoning behind it, but there has been some poor writing involved in his character development.

However, the new zaku's look HAWT. I have always been a fan of the Zeon Zaku's and to see the Zaft Zaku's look that much cooler than the origionals make me smile. :)

I don't actually mind shinn turning all crazy and what not.....I really hate Rey though. That character pisses me off everytime I see him. There is like only 2 other people he actually talks to. Shinn and the chairman. I swear he is the lamest character in the series. I just had to get that off my chest. :)

I think there is quite a bit more to rey than the series is revealing.. Hell I am not even sure Rey is a man yet.

haha I like that.....Rey not being a man... that would throw the whole series off for me. Then again he could be that rumored <censored> gundam pilot that bandai has always been trying to fit into a gundam series. Meh all I know is his character seems so bland...then again I'm guessing his whole history is going to be coming up in something like 4 or 5 eps from now.

And I'm sure it'll be jam packed with his past to "develop the character" so we won't see any real progress to the storyline . Similar to that Shinn flashback during the mid 10-20 eps. :smack: Wish I could just jump to the future and get the whole show complete.

I think he's referring to Athrun's decision to hightail it out of there?

Maybe, but desertion isn't an unjust law. Also, ZAFT lied about the reasoning behind wanting Athrun dead.

So I fail to see how it applies.
