Just keep in mind that this is what I think and if you don’t agree with it…. well I don’t care.
 

• Asura Cryin’ – It’s alright. Probably will give a few more episodes.
• Tayutama -Kiss on my Deity- – I like it. Will keep watching.
• Tears to Tiara – See Asura Crying’.
• Hatsukoi Limited. – Funny… but will give it a few more episodes to decide whether or not to keep watching.
• K-ON! – Boring. Couldn’t get past the 5 minute mark.
• Sengoku BASARA – See K-ON!
• Hayate no Gotoku!! (Season 2) – Liked the first season and will keep watching. I like Hinagiku.
• Queens Blade Rurou no Senshi – Undecided whether to keep going. People seem to like it because of the bouncy… yea…

 
And here is some of the stuff I still have to watch.

• Senjou no Valkyria – Based on the PS3 game. Friend is raging at the rifle.
• FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST – durrr… Everyone is watching it and I have to get around to doing so.
• Eden of the East – Lots of hype for this one. Has a good premise. Need to stop being lazy.

 
Older anime that I still need to watch.

• Code Geass S2 – Overrated but I should probably finish it since I watched the first season.
• Gundam 00 S2 – See above.
• Clannad -After Story- – I guess this can also be overrated but I BAWWWWWWWWWH around episode 10.

 
PS: I cannot believe how annoying it is to use the listing feature is for WP.

So far, I’ve yet to see any whiny bitching made by the cast of characters like a few certain people from the previous Gundam series. This has been a major improvement because the last thing I want to hear would be XXXX crying out doing some super move that wins that battle and afterwards seeing a river of tears flowing down his face. Appearances of the characters do not bother me too much but it seems as if all the pilots are male this time around. Possibly to make it less emotional but all of them seem to look like stuck up pricks.

My mind is a bit hazy but I recall there being fewer Gundam pilots this time. Although the core specialty Gundams are still there.

Yes, that is correct. There is always one that specializes in speed and melee combat. Another one in long range and accuracy. Fire power and destruction. Since I have problems taking in little details, I shall stop here.

Now, for the real meat of the post.

Another thing we discussed that was brought to my attention was the story. Although the concept for this is good and I am still very interested as to how things will turn out.

In the last minutes of episode 2. We are find out the intentions of the group, Celestial Beings. To irradiate war from the world. A noble cause with the right intentions. But how do they intend on doing it?

The answer would be to become the enemy of everyone in the world. They have the most advanced technology at their disposal and the world is baffled as to how this group obtained the funding for it. To piss off the 3 governments ruling the current earth. It is a good idea to threaten them with their weaponry.

Now, keep in mind that I am making these claims before even watching the third episode. I might be way off and this post would have been for nothing.

I can see two possible ways for them to irradiate the world from war. We already seen them make the AEU’s top prototype mobile suit look like a child’s toy and it pissed off the pilot of that who may play an important role in future episodes. This by taking out the military of every possible nation in the entire world. This idea seems to be the most far fetched idea out of all of them because it will take too long. But if they do that, it will lead to the three world nations to form an alliance to go against them. But not without crippling one of their military.

The second would be to indiscriminately attack the citizens of the world. But that would be called terrorism, no?
This idea would work faster but I don’t think they would want to take the lives of innocent people. They already make it clear that they were not siding with a weaker, oppressed side like we’ve seen in Code Geass. (It’s a cool anime and I’m not making fun of it in any way)

Okay! Now, this sounds like an original idea for most but my friend mentioned something similar about the story.

If you are familiar with the Marvel and the X-Men series. The plot was actually the same in one of the arcs. In the comic book, Cable, one of the mutants, has come across a nuclear weapon and threatens to use it against the world. The world panics and decides to unite (permanently? I don’t know) to take him down. And that was his original goal. For the world to be at peace. But doing that, does not come at a cheap price. I pretty much means that he sacrifices his life in order to achieve this goal. A good reason to do so if it means unity.

I sense a similar type thing going on here. Again, mentioned in the last few minutes. You hear Setsuna say something along the lines of, “This is what a Celestial Being is about.”

Knowing well that this goal announced to the world that they with to eliminate war from the world. They would have to be the enemy of every single person on the earth. And knowing that being in this specific group will cost them their lives.

This goal they have seems a little difficult for me to take in. They will gain supporters who are tired of fighting. We’ve already seen that this union on the earth who wishes for the same thing could not achieve.

A major flaw in this theory. They cannot just simply lay down their weapons once they begin to work together. That would be extremely lame for the story. I am curious as to how they plan to do it. Even after I give my example. It is not a common plot. I am just over thinking this.

I guess this goes back to that old popular saying, “In order to achieve peace, you must prepare for war.”
