But then is it like do they assemble it in Japan... which I hope so, we don't need cheaply-made stuff.

RIP a joke about how the Gunpla we got were off white opposed to white.

Edit (11/26/2014)

Spoiler

Allan is back. Chinan also showed up for a bit in the beginning.

[Outlaw]

Most interesting line of the episode:

Spoiler

"The Sleggar who transfered is now playing for a Tokyo school."

Hmmm...

[Strike Zero]

Spoiler

NOOOOOOOOO

GYANKOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

SEKAI, GET REVENGE FOR YOUR GYAN-WAIFU AGAINST THAT... KUNG-FU USING G-FIGHTER THING AND holy crap, I gotta be real for a sec, that G-Fighter was freaking amazing. I honestly hope it gets a kit -- I'd rather have one of those than I would the Mega-Shiki.

On a separate note, Minato finally crossed the threshold towards likeable with that opening scene. That was just too much.

All-in-all, good episode. The intrigue is finally starting to kick in -- I can't wait to see where this goes!

[Ryujin]

Some points of note for this episode:

--Apparently, Sakai is just like his masters.
--The older Sazaki was good enough to place in the Best 16 of the 10th World Championship.
--No mention of repair & maintenance for Build Burning.
--The return of Allan.

NOOOOOOOOO

GYANKOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Do we still have "Le Ding"?

[Cybaster]

I'm also surprised nobody here mentioned

Spoiler

Team Girls und Panzer

...aka Team Nadeshiko yet. Poor Xamel.

Actually, yeah....isn't Burning's state a HUGE plot hole?

This damage level thing feels like nonsense.

Spoiler

-They have Girls und Panzer fans in the staff. The Zamel said so.
- Suga's G-Fighter looks like it will transform
-Allan is back and he has a pupil by the name of Wilfred
- Gyanko for queen please
- So is it safe to say the Leviathan vs Nadeshiko battle was a homage to kaiju flicks?

I bet they have fans embedded in the staff.

Only explanation I can think of is nanomachines. Whoops wrong show.

[Xenosynth]

Poor Not!Hayato got snubbed ;_; Though Suga and Minato are shaping to both be my favorites (Gyanko and Shimon are still my top two though.)

Spoiler

ZZZ Gundam
Xamel
Doggorla

Also! Coach Allennnnn ;_; So happy he showed back up.

[gunform1010]

Spoiler

Who told Gyanko to act like Four when she got defeated?!! But that curbstomp was seriously brutal.

[AmuroNT1]

Actually, yeah....isn't Burning's state a HUGE plot hole?

Not really; it got repaired off-screen, presumably by Yuuma. It's not like they need to go on some kind of quest to find Sei since he's the only one who knows how to fix the Build Burning.

Anyway, loved this episode. Lots of funny and it still managed to be pretty intense. I dunno if I'd say Minato became likable with his dream sequence, but at least it humanized him a bit more. Plus, seeing all those Gundam-verse babes was amusing.

...Oh, and Nina was there too, I guess.

[balofo]

Damage level was to B, so Burning wans't that damaged in real life. Official explanation

[AmuroNT1]

Source?

[Kuruni]

Well, we don't actually see how the actual damage to real kit, so I guess it's safe to assume that. Build Burning once got blow up by Gouf R35 afterall.

I think the opening scene is the best part. I mean...Tri Zeta! Come on! That's Tri Zeta! Also Sakai can't remember Sekai as a person at all, yet seem to be smitten by Fumina...

[AmuroNT1]

I'm just kind of bothered by the fact that people are treating the Build Burning as if it was some kind of magical artifact that can only be repaired by the man who forged it in the first place. It's a damn plastic model kit. Yuuma can fix it just fine even if he's not as good a builder as Sei.
