EPISODE 02: DEPARTURE
Picking up immediately where we left off, we've got a peaceful space battle going on.
Quattro hears Kamille's heavy breathing in his mind.
...That's about all I've got to say about that.
I like Emma's hat. I think I may make one of those to go with the coat. Mmm. Titans.
Jerid's being a cocky dumbass and Emma's being useless. Only one thing causes tingling sensations more powerful than that which is felt by Newtypes:
stupidity.
Someone.
Needs to come and smack a bitch.
*ta-nan!*
Commander Bright appears!
I kinda love the hate/hate relationship here between Emma and Jerid.
Bright's just like 'oh fuck this' and I don't blame him. Fuckin' Titans.
Back in artificial airspace, "We might end up damaging the colony a little bit..."
CUE BATTLE TIME.
GMs are referred to as Jims. Oh lol.
I SHOULD MAKE AN OWNED COUNTER AS WELL. EXPLODING FINGERS! :(
Sweet, delicious dystopia.
Two times people seem to have confused Lt. Quattro with The Red Comet.
Now we see lots of hilarious explosions. They're hilarious because seriously, giant robots falling out of the sky and hitting things is a lot more silly than it initially sounds. At least, it was, until I saw
GUNDAM BLOOD :|
BUT the mecha fight sequences are really kickass.
During all of this, Fa is rescuing her mother since her house was nearly crushed by a fallen GM. They're evacuating, until Fa decides to stop at Kamille's house to check on his family. She tells her mother to go on ahead and Fa runs into the house.
But then we cut to Kamille running around behind a fence with sneaking music playing.
"HOLD IT!"
*VREET!*
Yeah Kamille I can't imagine why they saw you. You were crouching while running and everything.
KAMILLE JACKS A GUNDAM.
Unlike Amuro, Kamille tells Emma to fuck off and actually STEALS the GUNDAM right in front of everyone, including his fanboy hero, Bright. Without a manual, he knows how to turn it on and everything. His genius and natural talent is such a turn on PRETTY COOL.
Repeatedly the backstory is filled in with one-liners from various characters. GUNDAM: IT GETS SHIT DONE.
ACTION HERO BRIGHT.
Lt. Quattro appears!
Just like The Red Comet!
O U GAIZ.
Bright finally says what everyone must be wondering, "Isn't anyone gonna do anything?" Years later, you're still the only fucking competent character on the show. Good job!
Not a slap but still a notable moment of Owned.
We now see the first Kira, twenty years before Raito.
See, Bright was never a Newtype, but being the only competent character on the show, he's able to sense idiocy and potential to get shit done, so he's looking at Kamille and thinks of Amuro from the previous series, only Kamille's skill during his first flight exceeds that of Amuro's final flight. This is painfully amusing, y/n.
Kamille holds a guy hostage, threatens him, AND gets his way easily.
KAMILLE HAS DONE MORE IN ONE MINUTE THAN AMURO DID IN 40+ EPISODES.
Elsewhere, Fa is in Kamille's room, which is filled with mechanical junk and trophies he was awarded for being a kickass engineering student. That's when his house gets crushed and we see Fa running around screaming. However, she's more competent about saving her own ass than Frau Bow was. So we have a hero that gets shit done and a heroine who's not a moron.
ZETA: THE SUPERIOR GUNDAM SERIES.
So Kamille goes with Lt. Quattro and his wingmen, claiming to be on their side. He passes by his completely destroyed house, and happens to see Fa running down the street. He looks on, but when asked what's wrong and if he's coming with them or not--
Kamille says it's nothing, that he hates the Federation and will go with them.
He parts so easily. ;_;
6
AND YEAH. THIS IS WHY I HATE BASK OM.
BECAUSE NOBODY FUCKING HITS BRIGHT. TIME PARADOX.
NOBOD--
7
Oh. :(
But I would like to say, however, that people usually get hit for being either a.) lazy or b.) stupid. Bright was hit because he told a superior to his face that said superior fucked up. Bright then told him again since this superior didn't seem to hear him the first time. So although we have seen the absolutely shocking and impossible--Bright getting punched--it was for a reason unlike the failures that came before him.
What a man. ;_; ♥
Kamille and his new gang bust out of the colony.
I saved this for the PEW PEW VIDEO GAMES aspect until I realized this looked entirely like something else.
And I quote, "Just a little longer now, Unit 03~"
To which Kamille replies with a stutter, "S-So this is a real mega particle cannon...?"
Kamille hears a strange sound... and it's air leaking. Because yes, if there is a crack in your Gundam in outer space, it will simply be a normal air leak and you won't suddenly implode due to the immense vacuum of nothingness.
HRNNNG.
So Kamille reaches under his sweater and sensuously feels up his body to Quattro's voice tears a bit of cloth. (I thought it was a napkin when I first saw it on lower quality video.) He lets it float to the crack to find its source, and while that's a really fucking witty idea, THIS IS SPACE AND THAT SHOULDN'T WORK, SHOULD IT?
Kamille then hears some lounge music playing from the ceiling of his Gundam. AND THAT IS WHERE OUR EPISODE ENDS.
