Gundam UC episode 5
was amazing.
I’m gonna be vague to prevent spoilers.
Quite a few tear jerking moments, including a BanagerxMineva scene that was actually good. Bright’s behind-the-scenes support of Banagher was a near-perfect mix of in-character and out-of-character. The “Marie” scene between Zinnerman and Marida was touching. Nu-mode Unicorn was unexpected (for those who never read the novel) and nostalgic. Riddhe’s Banshee scene near the end was admittedly depressing and ominous.
My only gripe was the pacing, which seemed a little too fast, especially at the very end.
Overall, a great episode and I’m not sure I can manage the 8 month wait until episode 6, and probably another 6-8 month wait for 7. ):
