...so, going all fanboy here...

can we say... GN-Equipped Custom Flag?

awesome Ep. even the "music video" montage for Saji and Louise. again, the emotional cornerstone of the show, really functioning as a gut-punch of realism.

i also very much liked that Eins was still missing its arm from when Graham owned on it. i think it's the sort of small detail that, in the past, has been overlooked... implying that they hadn't had time yet to get back to home base for repairs. just another level of realism.

and... i know Louise was rather vague with her little talk with Saji, but... she mentioned his dream being that he wanted to work in space... and we know he's an engineering student... are we even more leaning toward the idea of him working on Gundam development of some nature later in the series?

and did we not just see Alejandro and Livonze (sp?) in flight suits before that quick rear shot of some odd gray-colored, four-winged mobile suit? anyone wanna try to snag a screen cap on that?

since Ep. 13 or so, this series has kept a fever-pitch pace. suffice it to say, it's well on its way to becoming one of my all time favorites...

only downside of this episode?

no Graham.
