Although I should not bother with various spoilers flowing around the net, but from the way people speculate, I think it make sense - Ali is not the ultimate bad guy, as he should be dead by the end of this season. Supposedly, Corner isn't either - he will die before the end of this season as well. Actually, he always remind me of Gauron from the Full Metal Panic series - he is not evil in the sense of wanting to do something major - he is evil in the sense that he just want a fight, and doesn't matter what happen in between. I do feel that he kind of want a fight "to remember" - what other "memorable" way to go then to fight a kid he trained? Also, the spoiler suggest he will grab one of the Throne Gundams. > > I am curious if his assistant has any relation to Tieria since both of their > eyes turn gold when they interface with Veda.

See above - hard to do that when Corner is already dead :) Anyway, I do see Wang as a bad guy - not sure enough to be the ultimate villain, but certainly on the roster. Maybe it's just me, but I see her bodyguard might "turn on her" sometime during the series, as he doesn't seem to be 100% with her. > > In another attempt to make it relevant to today's world the nurse tells Saji > that they can't regrow her hand because her stem cells were damaged.

I didn't get the "Good" sub yet so I would wait, but I imagine the problem is that her DNA is probably damaged, so there is no "good record" for the regeneration to regenerate from. Purely speculation on my part :) > > I am really curious how Saji will react when he finds out about his sister. > I > agree with the Saji Crossroad Fanbase that he will end up being a major > player > in the series. If he isn't then they can change his name to Shinn Asuka II. I hope not - I don't mind him being something along the lines of Billy, but if he turned into Shinn Asuka/Kira Yamato #2, I just might stop watching the show. I find the scene where Saji was thinking of only Louise when his sister is dying, while thinking of Saji emotional - not sure what emotion, as I cannot put a finger on it yet... > > I am wondering when Graham will team up with the Ptolemais Meisters against > Alejandro's faction.

If the spoiler are true, then he will die before the end of the series, and assuming that is true, then I guess Graham will act as a shield of some sort to one of the Meisters, or something along those lines. Guess his role might be the "inspiration" for the Meisters, since most Gundam shows have them for the main characters... > > I liked the fact that Alejandro/Laguna gave the UN the GN-X MS as well as the > drives.

Not really - remember the purple Haro? Supposedly, some of the data were on that Halo, hence they can create the Gundam Thrones, while similar to the Gundams CB has, it's GN drive is different, as they probably lack all the data (or back then, GN drive is not stable enough anyway). Wouldn't surprise me if the team that find the Halo is working or are from the Corner family. > > Also it was interesting to note that Sumeragi's comment to Ian about the GN > Arms > seems to indicate that there are units for each Gundam.

I wonder what are the opinion of the audience now, since there are some vocal people that complain about how people can support CB when they are so disorganize - I guess the show does go to show us that CB is disorganize - just look at how the CB are doing to get ripped out inside out, as I doubt Corner messing everything up is part of the plan. I have to say, he is pretty crafty, as now, since they are "past the third stage", there is no going back for CB. -------------------------------------------------- The Gundam Mailing List MK-II [email protected] Archives: http://www.gundam.com/gml Help: Email [EMAIL PROTECTED] with this in the BODY: help list
