CONTAINS SPOILERS

I love this episode it looks like Athrun finely got his act back together and mia (or meer I dont know how you spell it) lost her personality and realy thinks she is lacus
I cant wait for the next episode (or the fansub) were Athrun in his Gouf will (I hope) own Shin in the Destiny and Ray in the Legend now that Athrun has found his purpose he can be cool again

I might be wrong, but to me it didn't seem like Mia really thought she was Lacus but rather that she felt it would be a good life for her even if it just would be pretending to be Lacus.

Damn good episode. Can't wait for the sub to find out exactly what it is that Rey and the Chairman talk about. Asuran being labelled as a spy was to be expected though. It also looks like Mia has completely lost it and has convinced herself that she is Lacus. I don't think Asuran will "own" Destiny and Legend but I'm pretty sure that at some point they'll be forced to give up the persuit. I hope Asuran at least smacks Rey (in Legend) around a bit. I'm thoroughly sick of him atm.

As for Shinn, if he's going to turn and fight along side Asuran and Kira later this is about the latest point in the anime to start along that road that I think is possible. It'll also be interesting to see how Lunamaria takes this turn of events.

spoilers.

luna tells shinn about her feeling of athrun and stuff, and shinn vows to PROTEK HER!.....

*spoiler*

later on, isn't athrun going to own that new unit that resembles justice? he wasn't meant for destiny or legend, at least, i think not, because none of them looked like the justice-like unit..then again, i could be wrong

**danholo** · Sat, 06-25-2005, 11:37 AM

I don't think Athrun'll own anybody with a Gouf in the next episode. No matter how great Athrun's skills are he can't manage with a Gouf against the currently most powerful mobile suits available which are both piloted by very skilled pilots. After Shinn stops hesitating, like we can predict by his exrpession in the last scenes of ep 36, he'll take down Athrun without any problems considering if he knows how to use the Destiny.

Oh yeah, for those who watched the SaiyaMan release, what did you think of all the commercials? Never seen that many in one release before!

The commercials were great. They usually edit them out for their releases but I'm glad they left them in. I definitely liked the commercial with the 1/144 Destiny and Strike Freedom. Having the world split between the two of them and having the half on Destiny and Shinn's side being scorched and barren was a nice touch. A bit of foreshadowing perhaps.

**Deamon007** · Sat, 06-25-2005, 11:46 AM

I thought those comersials looked pretty cool

Hmm... This was a really good episode with Athrun as the main focus. Dullindal of course is offering praise for his pawn Shinn and tightening his hold over the kid. (At the rate Shinn is succumbing soon Dullindal will be able to order him to wipe out a town and Shinn would do it without any problems because the Chairman knows what's best.) Athrun discussion with Dullindal in front of Destiny and Legend was interesting. He kept asking why he ordered Zaft to shoot down Archangel and Freedom and the Chairman says that he had no choice because they kept opposing them. He even mentions Talia's offer for them to peacefully surrender but by now Athrun and viewers know that Dullindal has his own little agenda going on. It was also kind of funny because Athrun kept glaring at Meer because he knew all about the attempt on Lacus' life.

Later we see the Minerva getting repaired and resupplied and they cut to a scene showing Jibril arriving safely at Heaven's Base. You also momentarily see the Forbidden Blue but if you blink, you'll miss it. Rey and Dullindal have a little discussion. They talk about the matter of Athrun becoming harder and harder to control and Meer overhears them talking. She also finds a picture that Lunamaria took of Athrun talking with Cagalli, Kira and Milly. While Athrun is brooding in his room Meer comes and warns him about what she overheard.

Dullindal says that they may have to eliminate Athrun like they did with Kira and Rey says that he would be more useful to them alive. They can offer him up as a sacrifice by saying that he is a traitor and a spy. And of course this is the last straw for Athrun. Some guards come to his room to arrest him but Athrun manages to escape them. (Quite cleverly too. It's nice to see Athrun take people out with his barehands.) Athrun and Meer run away from his room into the rain and Athrun says he wants to take her away because Dullindal is just using her like he uses everyone else. Meer starts losing it when Athrun calls her by her real name (and you see a flashback of what she really looks like here. Nothing at all like Lacus.) and insists that she is Lacus.

Meanwhile, Meyrin is in her room and a dripping Athrun armed with a machine gun enters. Before he can explain anything to her some guards come knocking on her door. Athrun says to please believe in him and she quickly takes him to the bathroom and turns on the shower. Here is where that whole shower scene takes place. It was all a very clever deception on Meyrin's part to get the guards off of Athrun's back. Meyrin sets off a false alarm and helps Athrun by driving him to the docking area where some of the newer suits are being stored.

Rey and Athrun get into a nice old fashioned gun fight here. I felt this fight was a refreshing change of pace. After all not all battles can take place in mobile suits. Athrun tries to tell Rey to hold his fire because Meyrin is there but he keeps shooting anyway and Athrun manages to disarm him. Athrun and Lunamaria escape in one of the new production model Goufs but the Shinn and Rey go after them in Destiny and Legend.

I'm not sure if Destiny and Legend are nuclear powered in the purest sense. The start up screens show Gunnery United Nuclear Duetrion Advance Manuever system. Athrun told Meyrin that they were going to the Archangel because he doesn't believe that they would perish that easily. All in all a very good episode. Dullindal's little game took a little unexpected turn for a bit. One of his pieces ran away but Rey easily filled in. Honestly it probably works better for him that way. Athrun proved to be too intelligent to control. Shinn is easily manipulated because he rarely thinks about the bigger picture and Rey is totally loyal to him.

Seems to me that Shinn is showing some resistance toward the end, when he finds out they're going after Asuran.

I'm thinking that Shinn's going to defect to the AA somehow within the next few episodes.

All in all, it was a really good episode.

The day Shinn defects to the "Jolly Carebear Squad" is the day I commit seppuku after incinerating my computer.

I have to say that I'm really looking forward to seeing Shinn and Rey with Destiny and Legend VS Asuran in a frickin' Gouf ( ha ha ha! ). Seriously, this could turn out as one of the best moments of GSD. Then again, it could also turn out as one of the worst. Oh, and Mia is a psycopath. I'm starting to like her a bit. As for Rey.. sexiest character in this show without a doubt. He just needs to play the piano more.

.

Heh heh. Stranger things have happened. Besides, I said it's possible....didn't say I'd like it though.

And Shin & Rey vs Asuran should be interesting. Though I have a feeling an outside factor will play a part.

Agreement once again, Rey is indeed sexy, and his piano melodies are a lot better than Nichol's IMO.

About this episode, it was really great because as many already have stated we're back to the likeable Athrun who actually does stuff. Dropkicking soldiers and shit. Also, now I finally realize why there was a mysterious blue grunt suit in the opening [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

Also, Meer is a fucking nutcase. Me like.
Additionally, it's interesting to see Meyrin do something. I'm glad the show takes advantage of it's large cast of characters instead of the usual focusing on just a select few.

I WANT MOOOOOOOOOOORE~!

Rey's probability of achieving favorite character status (after Yzak of course) = 99.5%

@Dragonblade: Of course Rey is a marksman, he's great at aiming, but Athrun is just better. He's older and more experienced with guns and whatnot. Also, it's not like the show had a choice. Would be funny if Rey actually shot Athrun down. I can just imagine it, screen turning black, big white "Game Over" title and the show ends [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
