Gundam 00 ep. 8

[ Episode 8: Indiscriminate Retribution ]
WHOA @ Sumeragi and her bikini. She sure knows how to take sexy to an insanely high level.
I really love the way everything is presented in Gundam 00. The story is developing quite nicely and the way politics is used is just amazing. The characters are all getting attention in varying degrees. Though of course, it could be better. Speaking of which, Lockon got some development in this episode as it seems his family was killed in a terrorist attack when he was younger. It only makes sense, after seeing that, that he’s so intent on taking out terrorists.
One other thing that surprised me about this episode was the conversation between Setsuna and Marina. We know now that her country was responsible for destroying his own. The most surprising thing though was that after giving her a fake name he then revealed himself to be a Gundam Meister to her with his codename. I’m not going to jump the gun and call him stupid for doing that since I can see why he would do such a thing. That ‘thing’ being the doubt she had immediately after being told. Even though she still seems unsure of the situation, Marina doesn’t fully believe what he said so far. Though her confidence in her thinking may be a tad shaky after seeing Exia at the very end of the episode.
I really want to see more of those two together really soon.

One word: blackmail. Use it Marina.
Sumeragi was wearing a bikini?
Bikini. Swimsuit. It doesn’t really matter what it is. All I know is it showed lots of skin.
Not really. It’s more like she filled it out perfectly than anything.
Personally I’ve disascoiated her body with her character.
*looks at screenshots again*
My eyes see skin. Sure it’s not an overabundance like Yoko from GL but…yeah…that’s not the point here. ^__^
As for the last thing all I can say is “lol” to that.
Anyway, my interests centered around the whole thing with Marina and Setsuna as well as the bit with Lockon.
Setsuna F. Seiei rulezz !! (too bad for the unneccesary blasfemy)
