Episode 17 Discussion

I liked it. Authran and Shinn needed to have a little talk. I think something bad may happen to Lunamaria. Her crush on Aurthran seems to be comming at a bad time. The secene with the two mobile suit techs talking about Lucas was funny.

I don't trust the Chairman. He seems shady. I said this to a friend of mine two or three episode ago. That man is plotting something. Didn't the show he was sleeping with the commander of the Minervia in one of the first few episodes?

The Core Splendor does have a Phase Shift. If you watch the intro, you can see that it's colored while the rest of the pieces are gray. Then it goes into full Phase Shift mode. Ya know, it'd be kinda bad if it was shot down before it could fully transform into Impulse, meaning it's most vulnerable when launching, but they probabably took that into consideration. It's kinda how the shield is always on Phase Shift mode.

Judging it as having Phase Shift just because it has color is faulty logic. With that logic you can assume everything has Phase Shift (Water, Air, Trees, etc.). Also to be a little less snide, the Core Splendor is ALWAYS colored. They wouldn't be running the Phase Shift constintly even when it is just sitting there in the hanger.

Also another important point, the shield does not have Phase Shift. It has an anti-beam coating on it to protect against beam weapons (the only thing Phase Shift will not protect against).

Personally I got the impression that Dullindal was suspisious when the commercial for GSD first came out last July. The first couple of eps threw me a little, but not enough to convince me that the suspicion is unwarrented.
