sadly true
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. ):
Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn extended to 7 episodes!
Rumors have been floating around for a while that we would get a “surprise” around the time episode 5 came out. I guess this is that surprise! o:
Episode 6 will be released in Spring 2013 and is currently titled “Space, Earth, and…”
Episode 7’s release date has yet to be announced, and currently is titled “THE FINAL”, which will likely change.
