The teacher last word; Gundam in Reconguista episode 6 impression
The main theme from today
episode was the accidental demise of Instructor Dellelsen in Bellri's
hand. To be frank, it was very predictable that Dellelsen will die in
this episode and from the last episode preview, Bellri mentioned that
he made his greatest mistake. From that statement alone, I
immediately know that he would make the Capital Guard's biggest enemy
because he killed one of the Capital's best Ace pilot. Then, due to
the mistake, Bellri's chance to get back as a Capital Army's cadet
had diminished as his former team will hunt him down as their enemy.
In reality, I expected this turn of event long before due to how the
ending sequence foreshadowed the dead of Dellelsen in Bellri's hand.
I noticed that Bellri hold hands with Cahill and Dellelsen so I could
make a safe bet that sooner or later, he might accidentally killed
his instructor just as he did to Cahill.
That's his last wish |
In the first sequence of
the episode, the instructor prepared to sortie with the new mobile
suit; the Elf bull, to regain his honor, to avenge his fallen
comrades, and to save Bellri. In any case, Bellri's mother still
disagree with the army mobilization and she argued with one of the
commander of the army to cease the attack. Nevertheless, The imperial
army still condone the mission and sent the captain and some of the
soldiers. In any case, Megafauna already entered the space so you
could expect some space battle from this episode
In other word you are jelly |
In the Megafauna, Bellri
asked Noredo to prepare herself and Raraiya about taking the leave
from the space pirate. He said that he need to count how many space
ships that the Amerian army have before taking leave, which surprised
Noredo that he still considered himself as the Capital's guard cadet.
Interestingly, while she was hearing about their plan, Aida did not
seem to object about Bellri and Noredo escape plan. Maybe she already
knew that it was impossible for a capital cadet to change side to
their enemy in an instant. Not to mention he was the person
responsible for killing her lover.
Twin Satellite Canon?? |
The G self unit also got
another upgrade in this episode as it got a beam reflector placed in
its back. It was not tested before so Bellri felt that the pirate
used him to test their new armaments. What amazed me was how the
Amerian's pirate easily entrusted him with the most advanced upgrade
for the G-self. After all, he still belong to the capital guard's
cadet even if he did save them twice. Meanwhile, Instructor Dellelsen
in his elf bull along with his Gironde team were preparing to storm
the space pirates. Just as the G-self unit was launched to the space,
the new reflector system turned the unit color into purple and its
reflector part behind the unit resemble those twin satellite system
from Gundam Double X
A very good marksmanship here :P |
The irony from this
episode was that neither Bellri or Dellelsen knew that they battled
each other because they did not realize who their enemy was.
Dellelsen thought that the Pirate got their hand in the G-self unit
and sent their best pilot to thwart their mission. In the other hand,
Bellri did not know that his instructor was the person who operated
the new Elf-bull machine. Should he knew, he might try to negotiate
with Dellelsen and told him that he was still sided with the Capital
Guard and worked with them in order to spy how many spaceships that
the Ameria army had. Alas, Bellri who tried to save Klim's montero
from Dellelsen's Elf Bull shot the unit and just before the Elf Bull
destroyed, he could listen to Dellelsen voice and realizing just too
late.
I like how the colour pallets turned pinky (yes beam riffle colour is pink XD) |
It was problematic for
Bellri who already killed Cahill to remain in the Amerian's space
pirate squad. Yet, his accidental killing of Dellelsen also made the
G-self unit as the main target for the capital guard cadet. In
addition, his grief for killing his mentor might haunt him later on.
Well, I have a problem with how formulaic the pace of the story went.
Yet, with a complicated wove of the storyline, I still could not
predict what was the main problem or issue that happen in this Gundam
universe. I was hoping that the story will be more simple and
straightforward
