Thanks for that info. For a second there I thought he was talking about people heh.
Anyways a good episode because it balances between new stuff and clip stuff quite well.
Well it looks like Dullindal is gonna change the world, now... the way he goes about doing it, will prove if he is good or evil.
Of course when you consider his former associates you can't help but feel evil is the likely choice.

What the hell? Who didn't know what Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine, and Thymine meant? What a bunch of noobs.

Ok, I was surprised how good it was as recap episode... But I guess such episode has to be done for peoples who haven't seen SEED to clear bit emotions and things that took place in last battle, since most of their roots are in original SEED. Pretty good though, well, Now I just have to wait Episode 30! I guess in few weeks we shall see those new gundams...

Will Bittornado let you do it without the full HD space? I know I tried to do that with Azerus, but it wanted to set up the files by allocating the full torrent size on my HD before it would let me choose files.

I Think so

Watching this episode reminded me how much I hate Flay. Compared to her Shinn is a good character.

[kinggalaxia]

YEAH!!! I for real wanted to strangle my monitor, in hopes of it reaching her! ><!!!

One thing I really loved about this ep is that it connects tons of shit between Seed & GSD, like what the heck Rau was doing when we didn't see him in ever during Seed. Conspiring with Gilbert, as well as looking after Rey. I also liked being reminded about how much of a pussy Kira was/can be, nyahahaha.

Rey? Still dunno. From what we see, he may be an Extended. Not sure if he's a clone or sumthin of Rau/Fraga.

This was a horrible recap episode expecially following a while decent action filled episode one that still was about 30% reused animation at the very least. Destiny seems to have no budget compaired to seed.

[Psyke]

Seed had a lot of the so-called re-cap episodes as well, as do some of the other Gundam shows, such as Gundam Wing. Well it's good that they recap the story at times but it's really frustrating to wait for 1 week with no advancement in plot.

To be completely fair seed indeed had 2 back to back recap episodes which were each done from the perspective of one side of the fight and they did minorly advance things with them.

In contrast this is about the 5th one maybe 4th in GSD and they have been almost intirely useless ways to stall for time.

[Shinigami]

so...does anyone know what this episode was really about? mainly what Dullindal and Kuruuze's conversation were about??

Yeah, but to be completely fair, GS was not a sequal with 50 episodes of back story that people may have missed.

Their conversation was just about their points of view, they were trying to show Dullindal's motivation.

[Shinigami]

so WHAT IS Dullindal's motivation? for what?

Dullindal wants to destroy everything and start over as he feels both sides are a mistake so his true goal is to prolong the war. This is the main reason Kira and Lacus are obsticles to him. He needs Meer in order to keep the Zaft troops going and is generally sending the Minerva which is all the problem people for him out to there death as he knows the the EA's main target will be them. Atleast thats what I got from it.

Agreed that GS was not a sequal however GSD should make you want to watch the previous series instead or stop and point out everything in creation you should have gotten from it. I personally hate clip shows above and beyond all else.

Are you sure you would say that if you didn't watch GS beforehand?
I know for sure that if I hadn't watched it I'd love these kind of episodes even more.
Also, I have gotten a sudden urge to rewatch Seed many times throughout Destiny when they showed flashbacks.

To me seed often feels like a complete waste of time. Do note I REALLY hate clip shows in any series I feel that 1 in 7 episodes being a clipshow actually I believe 1 in 6 is absolutely absurd.
