life line by line

Stellar’s funeral, Neo and Murrue’s reunion, Lunamaria putting on the moves, and Durandal & Meer give The Speech(TM) outting LOGOS while uniting the majority of the world for one cause.

After the cheese of the previous episode, Gundam SEED Destiny 33 brings on the funk and does an excellent job igniting the start of what could be the second Coordination War in GS/GSD history. Ridiculously good animation throughout the entire time also help to make this one of the better episodes of the series thusfar. Just look at Lunamaria Hawke: Version Bandage Mk. II for an perfect example of the animation goodness.

Destroy Gundam versus Impulse and Freedom.

Some decent mecha fighting, however, does not make up for the fact it was a mostly crap episode of Gundam SEED Destiny. There were so many illogical parts in this episode that I felt pretty disgusted after watching. Sometimes I think I need to get whatever-the-f*ck that director Fukuda used to “help” him create the storylines of GSD. ‘Cause otherwise, I really have no idea what the man thoughts were when putting together episodes like this one!

Shinn becomes a cocky son of a b*tch as Stellar becomes the pilot of Destroy Gundam, thereby starting the third major battle between the forces of ZAFT, EAF, and Archangel.

The battle damages each side took, Archangel finally getting new crew members, Kira becoming the new spiritual leader, and more followed this episode of Gundam SEED Destiny. Shinn finally having enough of his girlfriend getting treated like a lab rat goes AWOL giving her back to Neo, naively expecting for her to be free had me laughing. Just because Shinn thinks he’s suddenly a hotshot pilot doesn’t mean the world revolves around him, which he’ll fortunately find out soon enough. If not for Durandal and Ray protecting his sorry behind I have a feeling Shinn’s ego would have been knocked down a peg or two a very long time ago. The ignorant fool!

So who else beside Zyl and myself were cheering when Lunamaria was in bandages yet made her look even hotter huh?! Or how about Meyrin’s adorable expressions when Lunamaria was jabbing on her? And if the two Hawke sisters weren’t doing it for you, Gladis’ shower scene must have been the crowd pleaser right?

Wouldn’t be the Gundam SEED universe without 50+ recap episodes and this time around is no exception as we get to see what made Gilbert Durandal who he is today. Or how I like to think of it, the condensed version of Gundam SEED in 30 minutes or less.
