Overall, this was an enjoyable episode.  At the beginning the Gundam Meisters head out to intervene, but the Union, the Human Reformation League and the AEU surround the gundams.  From what we know, the four gundams are up against nearly 1000 units.  This is truly reckless even for four gundams to handle.  Retreat seems impossible for the Meisters at the moment.  What bothers me is the reason why they still went on this mission knowing the possible threat that it was a trap.  I hope they won’t make these reckless decisions in the future.

Well Allelujah still gets his mind scrambled when Soma Peelis comes near him.  You would think he would get that fixed by now?  Either way, she is able to capture him.  Tieria is also captured rather easily.  His blasts are much too slow.  He is better off shedding Virtue’s armor.  He may have to do that next episode.  Lockon is then finally taken down by Graham Acre.

The meisters fight for over 15 hours during this battle.  It’s hard to imagine being bombarded by that many explosives, while in a gundam for that amount of time with no escape.  Quite harsh conditions.

However, Setsuna manages to escape and runs into Ali Al-Sarches.  He is also taken down in about 10 seconds.  I’m hoping he’s just sloppy from fighting for over 15 hours, because that was pitiful how easily he was pinned down.  A new gundam appears and saves Setsuna.  The other two Throne Gundams appear near the other Gundam Meisters.

Next episode we’ll find out whether the Throne Gundams are friend or foe.  I’m interested to see who the pilots are and why their GN particles are red.  The weaponry on one of the gundams resembled the Dragoon system that Strike Freedom uses in Gundam Seed Destiny.
