EPISODE REVIEWS
A very talky episode but the ideological debate makes it worth it. Hearing Frontal's actual cold, economic plan for the colonies makes you realize why the Box is such a terrifyingly high-stakes chess piece. GoT vibes in this episode.
This episode is the start of the final stretch towards the location of Laplace box. If you expect for the crew of Nahel Argama and Neo Zeon would get along even after the previous incident then that's a pretty naive thinking. The atmosphere is so tense that you can cut it with a knife, even after Full Frontal's true intention is revealed. The speech was just a mirror of something that Char would say if the Zabis(no offense for Mineva) wasn't such an ass and he plans to somewhat carry on his father's legacy.
Yet another dialogue heavy episode, mainly explaining Full Frontal plans and his philosophy for the world about to change. The nice little scene callback the first ever Gundam series was a a sweet treat to longtime fans. Bit boring, but you can't have a Gundam show without a bit of philosophy.
