rofl Flit is baysuckly Amuro x Kamille
Finished the episode, I thought it was surprisingly pretty good. It's standard Gundam but with a younger cast than usual. I really enjoy how Gundam is treated as a historical piece of Flit's family history. Makes the mobile suit more personal than usual. I also enjoy how the Gundam itself isn't really loaded with artillery as we're used to Gundam's these days having. When he took out his beam, I expected a saber but he had something that was more in the way of a dagger. That could make fights more interesting.
Speaking of the fighting, the fight itself was fairly great compared to Seed or 00. There are only a few blaster shots, only the enemy shot beams, and the fight ended with a well placed beam dagger to the enemy mobile suit. It was quick, with crisp animation, and improved by the fact that the UE's mobile suits aren't small fry. Compared to Seed and 00 beam spam and cheese ball tactics, this felt almost like a fight from UC Gundam.
Pretty by the numbers Gundam pilot episode, but still fairly impressive. It introduced seemingly what appears to be the main cast, and gave ample reasons to care for Flit and his situation.
I think I'm going to like this. By comparison, it's definitely better than Gundam Seed's first episode.
