Good episode, but nothing is set in stone. Archangel probably made it...next episode might show them trying to survive with the damage they took and depth charging ordered by that fat ass zaft general...
Kira's suit went into pieces. if there's still an intact part of it left, it will sink...so he has to go floating in the ocean. He could have survived his suit's core meltdown too, coordinators are like super humans so you'd think they were resistant to radiation maybe? Or maybe he'll get a radiation illness and live for a week or so. More drama.
Anyway props to Shinn for a good fight [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] there's probably no one else that could have done it.
