Impressions:

Well, I wonder how the hell Celestial Being is going to combat the many new Gundam units that they are now pitted against, and whether they will actually work together with the Thrones (for the sake of easier blogging, I’m going to call the four Meisters we know best CB, and the new three the Thrones). Hopefully the four CB Meisters are fairly competent in their piloting abilities, and were not just chosen for their hatred of the world or something. Otherwise, CB will be out of the picture quite soon. I sure hope that nothing dodgy happens to ease the plot, like all the GN drives crashing at the same time or something.

Hmm, secondary characters seem to be stepping up now. Allejandro seems to be the traitor from CB, and also seems to be manipulating things for some other ulterior motive. All the while, Mei’s starting to collaborate with the Thrones, seemingly putting her desire of a resurrected world above all else, and also seems to be entering as a prime candidate for another ‘bad guy’ for the show. Then there’s Saji, who seems to have lost his sister as well. He’s probably going to jump in a Gundam and go on a suicide run some time soon, or maybe discover the truth and side with Setsuna. In any case, I’m betting that these characters will step up in the second season.
