I wasn't going to bring up the Turn A, since a lot of fans(UC and AC) abhor it.  I've found the first 18 episodes to be very well made, if a bit slow to get going, with both sides falling over themselves to prevent the war from esaclating to a point where it can't be stopped.  But, yes, the Moonlight Butterfly from either the Turn A or the Turn X is the single most powerful attack that can be conceived of.  And it must fall into UC continuity because all the suits they are digging up are Zakus and Kapools.  But then, there's the vision of Wing Zero later in the series...

Deathscythe would fare well against other Gundams, it has a very effective stealth system(not as effective as Mirage Colloid though) that he can attack through, he's very fast, and there's always the psychological aspect of the design since Deathscythe was designed to frighten the enemy with it's demonic design.

To be honest however, I don't really like all these supermegakilleverythingcannons.  It takes the emphasis off of story and character and puts in on showy mech battles, which is why most of the UA and AC fanbois don't like Turn A.

Anyway, fourteen released as a sub.

New OP and ED. I like the OP better to Ignition, the ED is inferior to Reason.

Indeed.  

That was a much more satisfying episode that #13.  And this is going to sound nerdy and girly and whatnot, but I hope that is the last we see of Yuna and his manipulative father.  Athrun is the only one for Cagali.

I think there are many many many AthxCag fans who will back you up ^^

I loved the scene where Freedom flew with the pigeons, poster material if you ask me.
Habeeb it...

Absolutely, I copied it out with the Copy Image feature in Media Player Classic.  It replaced the scene with Kira looking at Junius 7 falling as my wallpaper.

Oh frecking hell. That new Zaku-derivative is called Gouf. I'm not a UC purist, but meh. :no:

At least their consistent.  I mean this is mostly a retelling of the original story with new(and better, IMO) characters and newer and better graphics.  At least they aren't recycling the damnable GunCannon or that besotted GunTank.

Recycling is a good thing when the results look that good.

It's hardly a recycling of the old story. Perhaps the first half of SEED was, but the new series is completely uncharted territory. They should stop regurgitating Kira and Co. and start focusing on the new characters. And personally I hated Kira, his only personality trait was his emotional weakness in the face of war. Now he doesn't even seem to exhibit that.

At least he's not a whiny little twerp now and he probably won't turn into an arrogant bastard like Amuro did.
