They really brought out the fireworks for this one. We get 5 Gundams, PLUS the traditional butt-ugly mobile armor. I was hoping Roybea and Witz had more character than they showed last ep, & it appears they do since they came back to save Garrod's pitiful "noob" butt. Best moment was obviously the teamwork between Garrod, Jamil and Tiffa. I'm only hoping that the Frost brothers show up again soon because they are some interesting antagonists.

Great episode again, I really liked it, the satellite cannon always impress me.
I hope this wasn't the last time for Roy and Sou to appear. I'd like to see another Gundam-team awsomeness here~

So, Tiffa can communicate with Jamal, and his left ear bleed when it happens. Interesting.

I liked the way that Garrod started battling. In most UC Gundam shows, the main character just jump into the Gundam and fly with it. But this time, we had some nice dialog between him and Jamal. Great!

Nice teamwork all around. I hope we see more of the brothers and the other two gundam pilots Witz and I still haven't remembered the other ones name yet. xD

Am I the only one who loves the ending?

Wow, that episode was actually pretty good. The fight scenes were really cool with everyone showing us their moves.

So far it seems like this show will be one of the best in the franchise.

Interesting, to me it feels very generic and not even close to the best SO FAR atleast.

Tiffa's willingness to massacre thousands with the satellite cannon every other day makes it hard for me to believe that she really is bothered by the screams of the dying.

I feel like the contrast to Tifa's reaction to the use of the satellite cannon in this episode isn't very consistent with her reaction in the first episode. Kinda glossing over that they blew up a building full of people to free her...

I feel really bad for Tiffa. She’s a little empty headed sounding when she talks, it’s probably pretty easy for people to manipulate her. Newtypes seem to have it even harder in this universe compared to the UC. Jamil especially. I hope we get to learn more about this universe’s newtypes.

Maybe the best episode so far? Cool battle + we learned about Newtypes and got some cool scenes with the different pilots coming together.

So that was quite an episode, this feels like an end of an arc in the series.

We got to see the two freelance Gundam pilots returning to help Garrod and the Freeden against the Frost Brothers. Jamil collab with Garrod, as well as the abilities of the Newtypes to communicate with each other telephatically (although causing ears to bleed in the case of Jamil).

And we got to see another robot in the form of the MA-06 Grandeene. Yet despite it's monstrous appearance, couldn't fare against the power of the GX and Satellite Cannon (amazing weapon overall).

Indeed, it looks like Garrod will be officially joining the Vultures along with Jamil this time around as a crew member and not just their prisoner because of his contribution to the battle against Alternative Company.

Poor Tiffa, but also good to see Garrod together with Tiffa again. I'm suprised she didn't freak out with the destruction surrounding her in this one, maybe it's because of the nature of her captors? Good episode, though.
