I hope Orga doesn't get eaten by the blond monster.
This story needs a bit more romance. Just a bit.

Peace.
Yeah, it actually does. Now there's at least one thing to complain about!Originally Posted by shinta|hikari
Let me add one more. The OP and ED music in season 2 is vastly inferior to season 1.
Peace.
Well, Man with a mission, even with their engrish, really do rock well.
And that MISIA title fits the show too.
Getting better for season 2 would have been an act of God. It didn't happen.
All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.
so is mika blind from his left eye? he is missing the "sparkle" when not in barbatos, i cant remember if it was portrayed on S1.
i remember when everyone wanted orga to die so mika could take his place as the leader, now look where we are! each character fell into his own space making them each different but part of the same family...
judging from the ending of last episode, i would like for mika to start having second thoughts about following orga and even going rogue for some time just to spice things up, on the other hand it will be out of his character doing something like that...
i think that if new guy will be paralyzed like his older friend only to find that makes you a better pilot, will be like a redemption.
I don't think anybody wanted Orga to die. I among others expected him to die, but that's not the same as wanting. Mika doesn't feel like a wholesome main character by traditional standards as he is currently, which Orga dying would have possibly fixed. However, by now it's quite clear this isn't a perfectly ordinary story anyway, so perhaps having Mika in his current state till the end wouldn't be a bad thing. I do know for sure I'd miss the weird interaction between Orga and Mika should Orga disappear, and it would be in no way compensated by developing Mika into a more traditional main character.
Having the main character split into two characters isn't such a bad thing when it's made to work this nicely. Orga is the dreamer, Mika is the maker.
Yes, just like his arm is paralysed outside of the mech. He screwed it up when he tapped further into Barbatos in the final fight of S1.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
wouldnt it be cooler to have him wear an eye patch then? just "removing it" when he gets serious... maybe then didnt wanted us to think he is a pirate or something >.>
Functionally speaking he doesn't need an eyepatch, since they're either used to protect vulnerable eyes or to cosmetically cover a scar. I rather like the subtlety. No one knows about this unless they're close enough to Mika to know what he's like inside a mech.

Episode 30 - HS

Orga was really scraping the bottom of the barrel when manning the Earth operation. If it was that tight, he shouldn't have even tried. One man gets taken down, and the leadership is left to a pushover kid and one shady man nobody trusts. It's ironic they got that far because they were a family, yet now it's also their weakness because nobody inside the family can't supposedly be suspected of anything.
That guy really isn't part of the family though. He's not really Tekkadan. It's strange that he's even 2nd in command. That should never have actually occurred since no one trusts him.
Also, Tekkadan isn't a place where you have to have permission to speak with the boss. It felt forced.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
Indeed, but when everybody save that shady traitor and one wounded man are scared or foolish kids, who's to argue otherwise? Tekkadan has so few good people that Orga couldn't afford to station enough on Earth. The result is as we see.
Hmm. True.
If it was someone like Akihiro down there, he would not hesitate for a second, shove the traitor aside and contact Orga directly.
They're sorely missing 1st-gen Tekkadan folks down there.
(edit: Akihiro's a bad example since he's so high ranking to begin with, but you get the idea)

Episode 31 - HS

It was Orga's worst decision ever to man the Earth base with only kids and a single man, plus the shady dude they knew nothing about. With the single man out of action, the kids will simply follow anybody, and the shady dude was given the control of communications of all things. This will be a highly expensive lesson for Orga. Although at the same time I'm not sure their opponents fully realised how loose their heads would be on their shoulders once Tekkadan starts to look for culprits. There's no place in the solar system for them to hide in.
Kind of a slow and melancholic episode all in all, but it was totally on purpose to convey the feeling of what the kids were going through.
Betting time!!!
Who dies in this arc?
The bro kid? The debris kid? The macho dude?
My money is on debris kid. Bro kid is the red herring.
Peace.
Although normally I'd say the bro kid should die for being so foolish, but it would be damn sad because it would leave the study-loving sister alone. Besides, like I said earlier, much of what happened here is basically Orga's fault, so it's kind of annoying if characters die due to the mistakes of someone else.
I'm still waiting for Lafter to ask Turbine for a divorce to start to date the macho dude. It feels like she's all the time looking at him. God knows Turbine wouldn't even notice if there was one girl less in his harem. He might even be glad as he ought to get it up less with every year he gains in age. He must be feeling the pressure in the wrong place.
Debris kid takes a hit for Bro kid. Bro kid has a cry afterwards. Then maybe he will die. Debris kid is done however.
Macho lives.
I often don't mind manipulators, but I want nothing more than to see Mikazuchi pulverize them.

it doesnt matter which kid dies the other one should learn from the mistakes made and be a good leader after this... and ofcourse take care of the studying sister... seriously both kids are expandable as long as the other lives:
debris kid dies, bro kid learns from mistakes and becomes a leader, sister is sad but bro kid is there for her
bro kid dies, debris kid learns from mistakes and becomes a leader, sister is sad but debris kid is there for her
just for the sake of drama/good story telling/underdog becoming a leader then the bro kid should die and the debris finally develops a personality...
It could work either way, but the debris kid seems more clued than Takaki. Takaki being kept alive also works because he can become a better leader after failing to be a leader. "I fucked up and I'll have to live with it while making sure it doesn't happen again", as opposed to simply stepping up after someone else screwed up.
Takaki is the one who has been lied to by communications-guy and played by Captain guy. It's on him to redeem himself.
I'd also rather see Takaki cry than his sister cry.

actually when i saw them working together it seemed like an unexperienced copy of orga+mika so maybe the can just become a proxy of them on earth?
