I rather enjoyed the whole space battle. That bad guy was nothing but a coward. I wonder what will happen next.

looks like little mcdougle is just a cry baby wuss who now is interested in melfina. Spaceship battle was ok just not really into that sort of stuff that much.

The grappler ship fights are so exciting, I am instantly reminded of Gundam Wing, especially with the music. Ship to ship combat but with grappler arms gives a unique spin reminiscent of MS combat.

Intense, but Gene should have killed that clown Harry. She literally almost hack "XGP 15A-II"

I would have blown his head on that spot.

Hopefully he'll do it later on!

Great episode! Macdougall's trick was pretty clever, but Gene figured it out. Lots of great scenes in this one!

Yeah I totally agreed. I really really hate those effeminate, smug villains that then get raving mad when someone beats them. To add onto it he was about to basically rape someone.

This guy is in the same category as Dilandau from Escaflowne and Dio from Last Exile and I really wish anime would stop using this archetype as stock villains.

This battle was so epic. I bet Gene is really good at a claw machine.

So they got away. Too bad Gene isn't more of a savage character. The last thing they need is a reason for the MacDougall Brothers to continue chasing them.

Halfway through the series, it still doesn't pop to me. I'm enjoying it, more or less, but it doesn't have anything to differentiate it and make it really interesting to me.

if this anime aired in this era, Mcdougall the younger would be a femboy i'm sure

Man that fight that Gene and Harry MacDougall was very epic. Though I will say Harry turned out to be quite the coward and man he cried over a single gunshot from Gene? Isn't Harry supposed to be like a feared killer and yet he cried and whined over one glazed arm? You must be kidding me. And now he knows about Melfina the one who controls the Outlaw Star, I'm not sure if I like this development of him developing feelings for her. Regardless there were a lot of great scenes in this one. Overall a great episode for me.
