Yeah that was beyond cringe worthy, goddammit Japan.

Rest of the episode was cool though, nothing major happening but still interesting.

Yeah, remember when those kids DIDN'T save the GMs, didn't hijack a military vehicle and didn't transport active bombs away from from the base? What useless kids they were.

Didn't stop the, from being any less annoying...I cheered when they were finally off the ship

I thought the kids were fine. They didn't do anything all that annoying (I mean, worst thing I can remember is they brought a vacuum onto the bridge).

Like, you can probably find child characters actually more annoying than those kids. Hell, I felt brain damage raraiya was the most annoying.

Give it a chance I've been enjoying it quite a bit and it's getting better with every week

What are you talking about? The Harem Ship is the first thing I don't like about the show, everything else is great.

They were doing so well up to this point, there was maybe like 1 butt shot the whole show like 2 episodes ago (that I'm not sure was completley intentional.) Then this happens lol.

IBO is not bad. It is quite good actually, a good story, lots of good characters and fantastic fights. We all freak out about thos, but this could mean nothing in the grand scheme of things. For all we know, the dude married to all these women could die in 5 episodes and leave them all open. Could lead to some interesting subplots about how women are used/damaged in war or the fallout from the person they love dying or something.

Well the protagonist is a cold blooded killer,the setting is in my opinion unnecessarily bleak to begin with*for a Gundam show atleast* and now the show's first female pilots are all glorified concubines.

No, he's a victim and a product of Mars' society. And he isn’t a whiny teenage boy.

I like it. Much better than start throwing names around I don’t understand or having 5 episodes where nothing happens.

Wrong. I hate that this is a Harem, but the females aren't objectified. They're still great pilots and they are not treated like sex slaves. The one girl continues to kick Mika’s butt in mech fights.
