I'm curious if she's just wearing a wig or changed her hair color.

I'm fairly certain she's going to push Suletta in trying to get revenge on Delling by killing him, which obviously leads into the moral conundrum of being conflicted over killing Mio's Dad.

I feel like Mio's reaction to that dilemma would be "if you're not going to, I will."

It's been fun.

The irony being that Mio might be willing to work with Prospera on killing her dad as long as she also gets to Earth

If she kills Delling, that would seem to remove her motivation to escape. Miorine seems to just want to have some control.

That and I'm pretty sure she would actually want to get along with her Dad on some level.

Can't do that if he's dead....then she'll get over it.

Considering that Delling went out of his way to void the Duel and the Holder status, I think Miorine just wants some love.

She found a way to play by his rules, and he's like "unacceptable."

On the mask Prospera's wearing, I imagine it to be similar to McGillis Fareed's Montag mask + wig combo. If Prospera is Elnora, she'll need to hide her red hair because Delling most likely has a file on her as she's a Vanadis remnant.

I'm guessing Suletta's lucky that they don't have a file on her as Ericht.

Is there ny trope we can put on the main page or YMMV page that says we aren't sure if the anime will stick with a Yuri story or go with Bait-and-Switch Lesbians?

[up][up]Okay, one of the comments had me laughing:

Bright Slap - old and busted

Suletta Spank - new hotness

Admittedly I'm really not much of a Gundam watcher, but I remember first hearing about the "Bright Slap" from this very site, which is probably what makes the comment funny to me.

The ending shot of the OP shows what I assume to be a Mercurial Base. Hopefully we'll get to learn about the living conditions of Mercury before the midpoint of the season.

EDIT: Someone removed the Ship Tease entry between Elan and Suletta for the episode 2 recap. That's pretty amusing.

I feel like we should wait a few episodes before putting any ship entries honestly. So far we have "the premise and theme songs indicates it's going somewhere but neither character has actually shown romantic interest nor have all that close a relationship on account of barely knowing each other" and "his own words indicates it's going somewhere but as he has no extra focus in the op or ed most people are just gonna gonna assume he's going to smooch the robot"

It seems like Miorine just felt guilty for getting Suletta involved enough to get in trouble for something that was her problem, not Suletta's.

I mean, she did say that while Suletta did briefly win the rank of Holder, she still wasn't intending to go through with the actual marriage at that point.

I'm sure people will be very respectful and understanding of each other's shipping preferences as we progress through this show.

Well, one of the pairings is cuddling in the ED. At this point, I just hope they give them actual development, since Suletta and Mio haven't really had much chance to even interact yet.

It's been fun.

In my experiences, openings and endings can in fact, be very misleading.

Sure, but at that point they might as well cop to doing actual baiting.

In a slightly more general sense, if your show is going to involve a pairing between A and B, you should probably not focus both the opening and ending on the pairing of A and C staring longingly at each other.

It's been fun.

Cross Ange (Another Sunrise production btw) did that and you can imagine how people felt about that.

Essentially, I'm gonna judge this on an episode by episode basis.

If it gets to that level of baiting, I'm just going to drop it unless someone tells me it ends differently.

I didn't come into this expecting anything (a friend just really wanted to share watching it, and I like mecha; I'm just terrible at picking things up at they're airing), but given the entire setup surrounding those two I'm a lot more willing to just drop it.
