Humanity, having established the Earth Sphere Federation, forms an independent security preservation force -[b] A-LAWS[/b], separate from the formal Federation army to further unify nations and the will of mankind. But the reality was the inhumane oppression of anti-government powers, doctrines & ideologies in the name of unity. Saji Crossroad, who followed the path to becoming a space engineer to keep a promise to Louise Halevy and fulfill a dream, is also compelled to become involved in Federation government reform. Meanwhile, Setsuna F. Seiei, surviving the final battle 4 years ago, saw the future of the world that had been changed by Celestial Being. With the defeat of guardian Alejandro Corner, he dreamed of a peaceful world without conflict. But before his own eyes was the reality of the continuing strain on peace, the oppression caused by Arrows. He decides once more to fight with Gundam, the power with the potential to change the world. Where will Setsuna’s and Saji’s paths take them as the world is set into motion once more?” Tagline : “(We will) destroy the rebirth” Mobile Suit Gundam 00 follows four mobile suit pilots, the Gundam Meisters. The protagonist is 16-year old Setsuna F. Seiei, a taciturn young man who grew up in a war-torn Middle East, piloting the Gundam Exia in order to change the world.[/quote] [b]Caps[/b] [spoiler][img]http://i38.tinypic.com/4lrbeu.jpg[/img][/spoiler] [b]Ep 1 Thoughts[/b] [quote]Here we go again on the front row seat having a nice cup of intense space battle between Celestial Being and the flaws of humanity. This episode also had a nice start of character development to Setsuna F. Seiei and Saji Crossroad. They met each other in during A-LAW's attack to the Kataron's Probe (a rebels but what they do seems just right). The part where Saji and Setsuna escaping the Automaton (spider-like enemy robots) and Setsuna dealing the new GN-X mobie suits were breath-taking, as well as Tiera's aid to Setsuna. Meanwhile, Saji's life was really fuc-ked up , and he misses his good old days alot but now he landed on Celestial Being, he'll life will be changed perhaps and probably will know that his girlfriend - Louise is alive. Graham, Allelujah, Souma, and Sergei had also a minor appearance on the show. Now , Setsuna is back on track and provoking Lockon Stratos' brother - Lyle to become a Gundam Meister, we'll see more action in the next episodes! Also, animation and pacing were superb - 10/10. Nicely done by Sunrise[/quote]
