    @ IceAlchemist : Thanx for the picture.

    @ masamuneehs :

    I really wanted someone to throw those kids out of the Gekko-Go while at 10,000 feet.

    Moondogie does a lot of stuff on the ship. A little bit of this and a little bit of that.

    When the series is finished and a DVD version comes out then you should do commentary on the entire episode.

    Absolutely correct. Moondoggie was the member who previously was abused like Renton. He did everything that no one else wanted to do. It was the premise of an entire eps.

    I understand how you can dislike Linck and Maurice, but how can you hate Maeter? She's the least annoying one. Maurice is old enough that he gets all depressed and weird (definitely an emo kid), and Linck is young enough to still be constantly annoying. Maeter may be the only one I really like, but the kids aren't that annoying. At times some of them are more mature than Holland or Renton.

    i meant like what he does during a battle or what official position he actually has. Even Renton has always sort of been a 'co-pilot' of the Nirvash since joining, in addition to his duties as Pledge/Puppy/Newbie.

    Heck, even the old man makes tea (and probably provides some kind of psychyotherapy or some other help) for the crew. I don't ever remember Moondoggie reporting in from the Catapult room or anything like that (unless they just used his voice and never showed a shot of him, or maybe I just have a shitty memory)

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    I could tell you guys but it is sort of a spoiler, and since i dont know if there are spoiler tags, i wont tell. That is unless you really wanna know.

    No spoilers here thank you, or you'll be on a vacation from here for a while.

    Not that we see you all that often icealchemist, but spoilers are a big no no here. Good work with E7, every release brings me a little more joy.

    This show is just excellent, I love pretty much everything about it to some degree, however there are some things that bug me. i.e. Did Holland really expect his crew to abandon him over a risky mission...that doesn't seem in charachter, I think he knows how loyal his people are, that's why they're there. I also have several questions and i'm not sure if an answer exists yet, which irritates me imensely.

    What is the point of firing the giant space laser?
    Why are the Coralians being attacked...What did they do to humanity to warrant this response?
    What role do the sphere-clouds play in all this?
    Why does theEND have kick ass weapons while typeZERO only has a knife (not counting the PWN-UR-ASS aka Amita drive powers)?
    What are LFO's and how are they related to Coralians if at all?

    And my #1 Question, WTF is Scab/Skurve/S*****?

    If an answer to any of these questions exists, someone please let me know.

    P.S: Whoever said throw the kids off the ship, while in flight...props to you, though they seems to be keeping the kids away from the storyline more and more, which is just as good, although unfortunate there's always a chance to bring them back in.

    These are my interpretations to your questions using the current content of the show released by Nanashi.

    1. I assume you mean the missles that Dewey has had his girls shooting into the planet that the engineers developed. Those damage the planet hard enough to draw out the Antibody Coralians, so that Dewey can lure out and find the 'true' Coralians, to kill them all off so mankind can exclusively own the planet. At least that's what his plan seems to be.

    2. The Coralians are being attacked by Dewey so humans can own the planet. There was a intro by Renton or one of the other characters a few eps back talking about how the planet was not an easy one to live on. Earthquakes all the time, Coral thrusting randomly out of the ground all the time like at the rave, people being affected by Dispair, etc. Dewey and his allies believe that this is caused by the Coralians, and by killing them, the planet will be the humans.

    3. The sphere clouds are a form of Coralian as I recall. The entire crew of Gekko-State called them that. This was before we knew about Coralians at all, but one appeared when the first loaded missle was fired from space, so I assume Dewey is trying to get them into a form he can kill. (This is a tough question to answer, because we still know so little about Coralians, and so far, neither does anyone else really in the show, except maybe Adrock Thurston.)

    4. So far I think the Nirvash is doing quite well on its own with the boomerang/knife. theEND and Anemone more and more seem to be a sort of parody to Eureka and Nirvash. An imitation that Dewey made, found, or by some other means created to attempt to get to a similar end that Eureka could achieve for him. A perversion. Where the Nirvash is has clean lines and is very humanlike, theEND is twisted, bulbous and bristling with unnecessary, and now with the new specs of the Nirvash, not very effective, weapons. It's not that different from Ray and Charles' models ultimately, except that Anemone pilots it in a very awkward position, and it has a lot of freaky eyes.

    5. LFO's are Scab (alt. Skurve) coral that was given armor and a means to pilot them. Generic KLF's are made from crappy, weak and impure Scabs, where the high-end LFO's like theEND, Nirvash, and Ray and Charles' KLF's are made from older, more pure Scabs. In the case of the Nirvash, it was the first Scab to emerge from the earth, and came with Eureka in tow. There's a whole bunch about it in the eps where the Gekko-Go is stuck in the mine, rewatch those eps for more details. There is also a little more about the process in the recent eps where the Nirvash was getting an overhaul at the base. Watch the old film for the details.

    I suspect that Scabs come from the Coralians, as a means to communicate and empathise with humans. This sentiment is expressed by some of the characters throughout the show in the last 15 eps or so, and there is some talk about it in the mine episodes as well. I suggest rewatching those for decent enough answers to your questions.
