Jamil said a simple phrase which perfectly captured the spirit of the moment and how loyal and determined everyone was.

* The first time Garrod uses the Double X. He uses the head vulcans to repel enemy soldiers, scoops up Jamil, Tiffa, and [[spoiler: Katokk's body]], and flies them to the ''Freeden''. Then, when he sees a squadron of Balients closing in, and with a yell of [[PreAssKickingOneLiner "I won't let you do it!"]], Garrod flies into their midst head-on. Keep in mind that the Double X's armament at the time was a set of head vulcans, a pair of chest vulcans, and a pair of beam sabers. He takes down Every. Single. Mech. [[OneManArmy Singlehandedly]].

* A very small one, but very important: In episode 12, you HAVE to give Tiffa props for not only keeping her cool in a hostage situation (Carris is holding a gun to her head), but ''completely and utterly DESTROYING everything Carris knows about himself and everything else, his entire world view, just by being honest with him and speaking up.'' This inspires Carris to find out the truth. Sometimes honesty is the best policy after all.

** Not only that, Jamil shooting down Carris' Funnels. He is still suffering from PTSD. His cockpit phobia isn't fully treated. He hasn't piloted a mobile suit in ''fifteen years.'' And Jamil flies out and ''owns'' Carris, shooting down his Funnels. Jamil Neate doesn't ''need'' Newtype powers: he's just that damn good.


Added DiffLines:

** Also, Garrod is outside of visual range of his targets. He is firing from extreme range, without ever seeing his targets, relying on the targeting data Palla's sending him. He's so far away there is actual travel time for his blasts. And he puts his blasts right where he wants them. For a kid with no formal schooling to be able to work out the necessary math and planning, that's ''impressive.''

* The ending, where the creators shoot down nearly every - and I mean nearly every - possible shipping angle (except maybe Carris... kind of ironic since he was voiced by Yuko Mizutani) by [[{{PairTheSpares}} pairing off everybody available with... everybody available]]. It was a bit of an AssPull, but the awesomeness of cramming all that character resolution into one episode overrides it.
