Mobile Suit Gundam IRON-BLOODED ORPHANS

Post by Kaori »

There was once a great conflict known as the "Calamity War." Roughly 300 years have passed since the end of this war. The Earth Sphere had lost its previous governing structure, and a new world was created under new systems of government. While a temporary peace had arrived, the seeds of a new conflict were being sown in the Mars Sphere, far away from Earth. Our hero, a boy named Mikazuki Augus, belongs to a private security company called Chryse Guard Security (CGS). The company accepts a mission to escort Kudelia Aina Bernstein, a girl who seeks to liberate the Martian city of Chryse from the rule of one of Earth's major powers. However, the military organization Gjallarhorn attacks CGS in order to nip this rebellion in the bud. CGS begins an evacuation, using Mikazuki and the other children as decoys. Orga Itsuka, the leader of the boys, decides to take this opportunity to rise up in revolt and launch a coup d'état against the adults who have been oppressing them. He gives Mikazuki the task of repulsing Gjallarhorn, and Mikazuki enters battle using the Gundam Barbatos, a mobile suit from the Calamity War era which has been serving as CGS's power source.
Okay, Sunrise's massively popular Gundam Series finally goes back to its War Drama roots after two years of Gunpla battles and WTF moments, in Gunpla related news, the Gunpla of the show is compatible with each other to the point where you can mix and match parts like Lego rather than some custom kitbash, Alright then, now my Bro Zaseo will take care of the plot of each episode, happy watching!

Episode 1

The episode starts off with a kid choosing a gun and falling back from the recoil. The child ask Orga Itsuka what should he do next. It is actually a dream from the past and Mika(Mikazuki Augus) wakes him up and tells him he is slacking off. A man comes to get them and they leave a room with a Gundam in it. The MARS Arbrau Territory Chryse Autonomous Region is shown and Orga is talking in a meeting. The CGS(Chryse Guard Security are to escort Kudelia Aina Bernstein(who is part of independents movements) Outside some kids are working while Mika is having a practice battle with Mobile Worker. After that all the guys are talking about the mission to escort Kudelia and the leadership of CGS. At a mansion Kudelia is talking to her mother about how her father entrusted her to be a mediator with earth. While walking in a hallway with Fumitan Admoss, Kudelia tell her that she chose the group of people in the CGS to escort her because they are child soldiers born out of Earth Sphere's rule. She hopes that she can learn from their experiences. On the Gjallarhorn(orbital base) Kudelia's father, Nomad is taking to Sir Coral about Kudelia being the leader of the Independence Movement. Nomad is basically selling out his own daughter. Various characters in the Gjallarhorn forces are taking about the mission to attack the CGS headquarters. It is night time at the CGS headquarters and Mika and Akihiro are doing pull ups. Orga is talking about Third group being considered cannon fodder and getting implanted. The next day there is a protest going on about MARS independent. In a store Atra is making something for Mika. Atra has a crush on Mikazuki and is friends with the CGS Third Group. Her boss tells her about the escort mission he is going to be on. A meeting for the escort mission is going on and Third Group walks in. They greet her and Kudelia approaches Mika and ask him is name. Mika tells her his name and she ask him to show her around. She offers a handshake but he doesn't take it. He goes to show her around and is explaining things very quickly. She tells him to wait, takes her right glove off and offers a handshake again. Kudelia tells him she wants to be on equal terms with him. Mika tells her no because his hands are dirty and says that means they're not on equal terms to begin with. Outside Orga and Biscuit talk about why they are escorting Kudelia and how its likely a trap. The Gjallarhorn make their move and strike at night. They start with a barrage of missiles shot from Mobile Workers. The rest of the CGS runs away and tells Third Group to attack the enemy head on. Orga tells Biscuit to get Kudelia and goes to the room where the Gundam is at. The guys of Third Group are putting up a good fight but they are still out gunned. Many are being injured/killed and Biscuit confirms that the president and higher ups of the CGS are running away. Eugene says he doesn't want to die and vain and Orga tells him he won't. Biscuit launches signal flares and the higher ups of the CGS become one of Gjallarhorn's target. Suddenly Mobile Suit show up and the Mobile Workers that Third Group has doesn't stand a chance. Orga has a plan and needs the others to buy Mika time. Third Group is taking causalities but things turn around when Mika shows up in the Gundam Barbatos. It quickly destroys the Mobile Suit about to attack Orga. Flashbacks are shown with Mika and Orga saying they're going to the place they belong.

Episode 2

Picking up from ep 1 Mikazuki uses Barbatos's spear like mace to smash one of Gjallarhorn's Mobile Suits. Mika then thinks about a flash back of him asking Orga what to do. We are shown a flash back from a few mins ago of Mika getting going through the process of getting the Barbatos reading. Nadi is fixing up the Gundam and explains that they are using the Alaya-Vijnana System. Kudelia worries and says its fuses with children and that the nanomachines are dangerous to use. Nadi explains how the nanomachines work with the brain so that it can process mobile suits. Nadi tells Mika to be careful and Kudelia questions if he values his life. Mika answers of course he does and the lives of others. Mika starts up the Gundam and act how to read the information being showed. Mika can't read well. The system starts hurting Mika and his nose starts bleeding but Mika gets back in control and says the Barbatos. Ein Dalton of Gjallarhorn goes on the attack. Mika throws Barbatos's mace and it causes the arm of the EB-06 Graze Ein to recoil backwards and the mace flies in the sky. Mika catches it comes down and knocks the left arm of the Mobile Suit off. Crank Zent rushes at Mika and he says does he think he will be able to defeat Gjallarhorn with an old Mobile Suit. While the two are locking weapons Crank is surprise to hear that a child is piloting the Mobile Suit and he realizes that they are fighting and killing a lot of children. As Mika starts to overpower Crank, Ein shoots at him and Mika backs away by using the thrusters. Unfortunately the fuel wasn't refilled so it was already out. Mika is about to go back on the attack but Gjallarhorn retreats. Mika as the Alaya-Vijnana System takes it toll on him. Atra is driving and sees Cookie and Cracker(the sisters of Biscuit). Coral is ticked off that Crank had retreated and that they failed the mission. His plans is to kill Kudelia so that MARS go to further turmoil. Coral tells Crank to destroy the enemy but Crank complains that the enemy are children. First Corps returns as Third Group are cleaning up, giving first aid to the survives, and checking for the others that died. Atra shows up with Cookie and Cracker and they see their brother Biscuit. Nadi gets Mika out of the Barbatos when he wakes up. Mika ask how many time and Nadi says 42 from Third Group and 68 from First Corps. Mika is walk around the CGS base and see Atra. He is in a hurry and quickly speaks to her. Atra ask if he is ok but realizes that he isn't(notices the bleeding nose). Kudelia thinks of a speech she done in the past about war on MARS, poverty and how children are dying. She blames herself for what just happens. Fumitan shows up and told Kudelia that she contacted her father and that he wants her to return ASAP. Kudelia explains how she is the target of the attack and that she suspects her father is up to something. Mika walks in the room to grab a box of supply and says that Kudelia is still here. Kudelia thanks him for protecting her and the others. Kudelia feels it is her fault. Mika tells her to cut it out and that they all died for one person like you? Then he tells her not to look down on his comrades. While walking she thinks about what Mika said and feels he can see right through her. She walks to the cafeteria area and sees Atra with the 2 twin girls. Orga takes a beaten from the guys in First Corps. It is brutal and they are being very selfish and ungrateful. A bit later Orga has a plan to take over the CGS. To the guys in the group he notes that Maruba and First Corps are scum and that the things that they shall have Third Group doing is going to get them killed. After a bit of talking Orga go see Mika to discuss if they should go through with things are not. Crank is talking to Ein about the mission to destroy CGS, even if they're just children. Orga hands Mika a handgun and talks about the plan. McGillis Fareed and Gaelio Bauduin arrive to meet Coral.

Will be interesting to see if Mika will eventually stop being Orga's dog and make his own decisions. It might even lead to them being enemies eventually :o

Episode 3

Episode starts off with Mika eating. After get ready for the plan to take over the CGS. Biscuit is preparing food and Cookie and Cracker gives it out to people. He thanks Atra as warm food is better than cold rations. Kudelia wanted to help when she her Atra was preparing meals. She is helps but struggles to do things like pour stuff and cut food. Cookie and Cracker helps her. Norba and Eugene gets Biscuit to food the higher ups in CGS. Haeda as usual is bring a jerk about things and kicks Biscuit. Mika is walking through the cafeteria area and Cracker and Cookie gives him food. Mika notices the pieces are cut big. They tell him that Kudelia cut it and she rushes over to try and stop Mika from eating. He eats it anyway and she freaks out a bit but Mika tells her he likes big pieces. Nadi is carrying supply and walks by Atra. Atra tells him she is going home and Atra mentions that Mika is a bit touchy at the moment. The higher ups in the CGS are tied up and thrown in a room. The food they ate had sedatives. Orga tells Haeda that he is an incompetent leader and as Haeda talks back Orga kicks him. Haeda says he will spare them if they let him go now. Orga tells him he isn't in that position to make such a claim and tells him how much of a bad leader he is. Mika walks up and puts several bullets through him. Orga tells the other guys that they can work on them or get out. One guy gets up only to quickly get shot several times and die. Orga tells them death is the 3rd option. Dexter Culastor wanted to leave but they need him there due to him being in charge of accounting. A lot of people leave the CGS but Todo Mirconen from 1st group decides to stay. Nadi decides to stay because looking at the kids is something he wants to do. Kudelia is watching people work when Orga ask where Mika is. Kudelia says that Mika is amazing and that he must have trained a lot to pilot the Barbatos. Orga tells her that it was his first time. She is surprise and Orga explains that the Alaya-Vijnana System is made for Mobile Suits. Orga ask what Kudelia is going to do and she is not sure. She knows she can't return to her father and she also still wants to complete the mission(her getting an escorted by CGS and MARS freedoms stuff). In a meeting with the accountant CGS fine out that they only have money for 3 months. They need to find a job as soon as they can. Todo says that they hit Gjallarhorn hard and that Kudelia the target. He suggest exchanging Kudelia for money. A siren goes off and Crank from Gjallarhorn is approaching. Crank wants a 1 on 1 duel and wants Kudelia. He also promise to end any problems between the CGS and Gjallarhorn. Kudelia offers to go with Crank so that their shall not have to be a battle. Orga decides that is not a good idea and there is no telling what shall happen. Orga ask Mika if he is up for the duel and Mika agrees. While Mika is preparing to use the Gundam, Kudelia wonders if she would be able to use the Alaya-Vijnana System in a similar manner as she wants to protect everyone. Orga warns her because out of 10 kids that had the surgery done, 4 of were hospitalized and likely can't move out of bed(if they even lived through it). Orga tells her that Mika did it on his own free will 3 times. The duel begins and they dash towards each other with their weapons, mace vs axe. Mika overpowering him with several swings of that huge mace. He ask how is the duel going to be settle? Crank says no need for a duel to the death and says children should not be involved in these conflict. Mika tells him that he killed so many and that he is going to kill him. Mika destroys the shield that the Graze had. Orga explains why Mika is strong and Kudelia realize that she can fight but through other means. Orga also comes up with the name Tekkadan which means Iron Flower. Crank does manage to destroy the handle part of the mace but Mika picks up the other end. Mika uses it to piece the chest area of the Graze. Mika then uses his hand to crush the Graze's head. Crank is defeated and is laying inside the Graze. Mika gets out of the Barbatos and question him about what happens if he wins. Crank tells him he doesn't know and it not his opinion. Crank tells him he disobey an order and that he doesn't want to go back because it would reflect poorly on this troops. He is slowly bleeding out but asks Mika to finish him off. Mika uses his handgun and kills him. Later at night the group(aside from Eugene and Todo) are happy. Kudelia tells him she wants them to continue their mission and knows someone called (Nobliss Gordon) that can pay them. Orga says that Tekkadan is happy to take the mission.

Episode 4

Episode starts off with Mika doing pull ups and talking to Akihiro about work with Tekkadan. Todo is thinking to himself that Tekkadan is foolish for making enemies with Gjallarhorn and thinks they are going to get killed. Biscuit and Orga walk by and Orga ask him if he is going to attend a meeting. Once they leave Todo says they are fools and has an evil grin on his face(he is up to something). At the meeting Biscuit explains how they are going to pull the escort off. They are discussing a safe route to take and Todo suggest that they use the Orcus Company since he knows the CEO. Eugene questions if they can trust Todo. Orga says he knows what shall happen if he betrays them. Orga and Biscuit then explains the ships and Mobile Workers that are going to be used and prepared. McGillis, Gaelio, and Coral are talking about the mission Gjallarhorn did(trying to capture Kudelia). They question Coral's failures on why a big force is needed for the task and why it failed. Coral tries to play friendly with a bribe but it doesn't work. When he walks out his bangs his head on the wall and blames things on Crank. Mika and Nadi are working on the Barbatos and a Graze(they fixed it up and added parts). They basically prepare the Mobile Suits to go out into space. Akihiro is doing some stuff for Tekkadan and recalls a flashback of him and Orga talking about staying or leaving Tekkadan. Back at the meeting Todo tells him that Orcus wants a 45% cut. Eugene questions if its worth it. The group also talks about the risk and how escorting Kudelia may make a name for Tekkadan. Kudelia is eating and thinking about the funds she got wired to her. Mika comes by her, says he looks down, and ask her does she want to come with him(he is going out after lunch.) McGillis and Gaelio are on MARS investigating what happen. They conclude that the missing Gjallarhorn is a result of battles and that they fail to get Kudelia. They mention that Coral wants Kudelia because that would really help him get a good name with the Regulatory Bureau. Mika, Biscuit, Kudelia, and Fumitan arrive at Miss Sakura's field(Biscuit's grandmother). When Atra and Biscuit's family show up everyone gets to work. Atra notices that Mika is wearing the matching good luck charm she made for him. Kudelia is working to pick corn. She almost falls over but Mika catches her. As wind blows she notices how beautiful the place is. Mika then asks Kudelia how much does she think the corn sells for. She says about 200 galars for one. Mika then says only 50 for 10kg of corn and that its sold cheaply as biofuel. Mika explains that Miss Sakura wouldn't make it without Biscuit's salary. Others that work for Tekkadan are also in similar situations. Mika then ask Kudelia does she know about Human Debris. Mika explains that Akihiro and others are traded for money and even if they were free they couldn't get proper jobs to support themselves. Mika thanks Kudelia for giving them a chance. Cookie and Cracker are trolling Atra by saying the Mika is going to get taken away. Atra sees Mika and Kudelia talking from a distance. Cookie and Cracker goes to get another basket for Biscuit and are almost hit by the car that McGillis and Gaelio are in. Mika hurries up and grabs Gaelio by the throat, choking him up against the car. Cookie and Cracker tell him its a misunderstanding. Miss Sakura says that Mika acts that way when he is mad. Fumitan grabs Kudelia and stays out of sight to avoid being seen by Gjallarhorn. Mika is about to apologize but Gaelio starts to throw a punch. Mika quickly reacts and dodge it though. Gaelio notices Mika's back and McGillis explains that they are implants for the Alaya-Vijnana System. Gaelio goes to throw up when he hears the details. For an apology McGillis gives the girls some candy and then ask Biscuit about any battles that might have taken place. Biscuit plays if off and says some company was likely doing military training. Mika notes that they didn't know about the battles that took place. Akihiro who is still doing stuff for Tekkadan has their ship name to Isaribi. When Mika and the others return Tekkadan's logo is painted on one of the buildings. Everyone there is talking about the new logo and Todo is talking to his contact with betraying intents.

Episode 5

Episode starts off with Orga and Mr. Orcus making a deal so that Tekkadan can safely reach earth. Coral is banging his head on his desk while yelling damn it because his plans have been ruined. He gets a call from someone saying that a person who controls the Orcus company wants to talk regrading Kudelia. Ein is still thinking about Crank's death. Someone comes to get him and tells him that Coral wants him to go on a mission. Kudelia is standing outside thinking about the escort. She walks to the look out where Mika is. Mika gives her a blanket and explains that he and Orga takes turns on look out because an enemy can show up at any moment. Mika explains that if Orga says he shall do something, he will get the job done and Mika also gives Kudelia some dates palms. Mika ask Kudelia if he shall be able to see the moon. She explains that the Earth's moon is barely visible due to the war. Next day when everyone is eating Atra shows up and says she wants to be the cook for Tekkadan and that she quit working at the store. Coral is planning to stop the escort mission and is even letting McGillis and Gaelio take credit. The Orcus company and Gjallarhorn are working together and plan to ambush Tekkadan. The ship takes off into space. People notices that the Orcus ship is a earlier than schedule. Suddenly the Orcus ship and Gjallarhorn Mobile Suits start attacking. Todo is wondering what the hell is going on and when he goes to talk to Mr. Orcus he tells him thank you for cooperating. Todo is quickly beaten up for backstabbing that they know he would do. Kudelia offers herself over but Orga says he can't do that. He then has Mika use the Barbatos. When the ship opens Mika shoots one of the enemy Graze at point blank range with a huge rifle. Coral wants to hurry up and get the job done and Orcus starts shooting at Tekkadan. Akihiro then shows up for support in a ship. Todo questions why is the other ship here when it was support to be at the place of the meet up. Orga explains that they couldn't trust him and has him locked in a closet. Mika is giving Gjallarhorn a hard time with ranged combat so Coral decides to go in up close. He pushes Mika back with his axe and when he is about to attack again Akihiro shows up with a Graze custom(it was a Graze that Gjallarhorn used and they fixed it up with some new stuff) and shoots at Coral. Akihiro throws Mika the mace and Mika charges in and impels Coral, killing him. Ein is upset that Coral died and with angry tries to take out Mika but Mika dodges with ease. He is also moving in ways that makes in very hard to target. Gaelio shows up the battle and McGillis is finding out info on what Gundam Mika is using. McGillis decides to join the battle and is analyzing how Mika is using the Gundam to move. The Alaya-Vijnana System is the reason why Mika is able to move in ways that is hard to keep up. A weak part is notices and McGillis shoots the thrusters(they aren't armored like the other parts). Mika quickly realizes how it is being aimed at. Tekkadan is taking heavy fire. Orga decides to use a near by asteroid to their advantage. The plan is to use a Mobile Worker to latch on with a hook and blast it. Eugene offers to be the guy that does it. The anchor is fired and they latch on the asteroid. They swing around it and Eugene fires at it. As they come back around they use a flash bomb to blind Ocrus and escape. Gaileo and McGillis are double teaming Mika. Parts of the Barbatos armor, the left arm's armor and the left leg is destroyed. Mika throws his mace and hits Gaileo hard(it damages the Graze and the side of his face is bloody. Mika realize it is the 2 from before and calls McGillis Fareed the "Chocolate Man". Mika grabs on to the Tekkadan ship and flees. Everyone in Tekkadan is safe as Mika, Akihiro, and Eugene gets out of the Mobile Suits and Worker. Gjallarhorn is sent a surprise. Todo is beaten up in his underwear and on his chest/stomach he has "This looks like one of yours, so you deal with him" written on him.

Episode 6

The episode starts off with a flashback to the last ep when Eugene use the asteroid to turn Tekkadan's ship around and when it past by Orcus's ship. A man who we have not saw is briefly seen smiling. On the Gjallarhorn ship Gaelio starts talking to McGillis about what they are going to do about Tekkadan. McGillis tells him they won't be chasing them because of Coral's death and there isn't a need since they know they are headed to Earth. The main group of Tekkadan are wonder if they are still being chase but for now they are safe. Nadi and children are repairing the Barbatos and one of the kids ask a question about the armor. Nadi says he is the kid an idiot because the armors are totally different. One of the kids asked about the Mobile suit and Nadi explains the Calamity War. Mean while McGillis is explaining to Gaelio history about the war and about the Barbatos. The Barbatos is one of 72 Gundams used. McGillis confirm it is the Barbatos due to data from the reactors. Mika is eating a lot of food and Atra comes and ask him if another battle shall happen again. Mika says they will because they're coming after Kudelia but tells Atra he is not scared and don't worry because he has her good luck charm. Tekkadan is having a meeting about how they shall get to Earth safely. They need a guide to help them and Orga thinks Teiwaz shall be a good idea. Teiwaz is a conglomerate in the Jupiter sphere. They wonder how they are going to negotiate with Teiwaz though. Fumitan helps one of the crew members contact Mars using the Ariande that Gjallarhorn controls and also sends encrypted messages. Fumitan then starts helping out as a communications operator. Mika and Atra are taking lunches to everyone. On the way to one of the rooms in the ships they pass by Kudelia who wonders why Mika wasn't at the meeting. Mika explains he wouldn't really understand whats going on. Kudelia says she wants to help give out lunches as well. All the people working gets their lunches. While going to the room where the Barbatos is Mika explains he doesn't know why they're going to earth and Kudelia explains the stuff about the war and the Mars independence movement. Atra is surprise that they're going to earth and wonders how she is going to look there. While giving out lunches to the kids working on the Barbatos Kudelia hears Mika and Nadi talking about how work and how Mika can't read. Kudelia is shocked that Mika never learned to read and offers to teach him. Mika says he does want to learn and the other kids there also want to learn. Kudelia decides to teach them all. On the Gjallarhorn ship McGillis ask Ein what happens and he explains that they were shocked that Tekkadan(CGS before name change) had a Mobile Suit and is even more surprise at how it preformed in battle. Ein ask McGillis to be a part of pursuit force to avenge his fallen officers. McGillis says he shall think about it. Mika and the kids are learning to write that names correctly. Most of the kids gets things right but Mika struggles a bit as he flips letters. The kids tease him a bit about his handwriting and Takaki(the leader of the children) tells them to cut it out and practice hard. Orga is watching around a corner and Mika notices him. Orga then goes talk to Biscuit a bit. Biscuit wonder why Orga is taking actions in certain ways. Orga explains that Tekkadan doesn't have much choice and that he is always being watched my Mika in various ways and that Mika looks up to him. Later Mika and Orga start talking. Mika says the reasons he wants to learn to read and write is to help out with the Gundam stuff, write and read books, and to have a grow a vegetable field like Miss Sakura. They talk a bit about the escort mission to Earth and Kudelia is shown staring at one of the kids that had surgery like Mika. After they finish talking a siren goes off. They get a signal from Maruba Arkay and he wants the Will-O'-the-Wisp(now the Isaribi) back.

Episode starts off with a girl(Lafter) painting her toenails and the children of Tekkadan questioning what the signals is about. Maruba is still complaining about the Isaribi. Fumitan finds their location and Teiwaz is close and fast approaching. Naze gets Maruba out of the way and starts talking. Naze explains that he had a run in with Maruba about the Gjallarhorn problem. Biscuit explains that the Turbines are a group under Teiwaz and that Naze Turbines is of high rank. Naze explains that Maruba wants all CGS property but the group CGS went out of business and has been replaced by Tekkadan. Naze offers everyone their decent work if they hand over things and says he won't mistreat them. He also states that they are a large group and can't stay together forever. Mika says he wants everyone to stay around and Orga tells Naze that he refuses the offer because Tekkadan has a job to complete. Kudelia then explains her situation and Naze states its complicated because Kudelia is Maruba's "property". Biscuit then speaks up and ask to make a deal between Tekkadan and the Turbines about using a safe transportation route. Naze refuses stating its matter of principals and that they stole their company. Naze explains that they aren't just kids and that they should know what making enemies means. Amida, Lafter, and Azee prepares for battle and Tekkadan's Isaribi turns around. Amida is exicted about giving the children of Tekkadan a spanking and likes how Tekkadan turns around for battle. Everyone form Tekkadan gets ready to fight and Eugene is told to be the ship captain by Orga. Atra is cooking food and stops as potatoes starts floating. Nadi tells Mika that the reactor hasn't been fine tuned but Mika says he can manage. The Hammerhead(Turbine ship) fires at the Isaribi. Lafter in her Hyakuri also starts attacking the Isaribi. Mika decides to go after her and Akihiro is going to hold off the other two. Atra helps Kudelia put a spacesuit on because Kudelia is struggling with the gravity. They both go to watch the battle. Lafter is flying circles around Mika and constantly shoots at him. Tekkadan are preparing their plans as the younger members get ready for battle. Mika waits for his changes and shoots a grappling hook on Lafter's Hyakuri. She flies off dragging Mika but its a part of Tekkadan's plan. They fire missiles and when they're intercepted they turn out to be smokescreens. They make it seem like they were going to crash into them but the Isaribi turns sideways and goes above them. The members of Tekkadan gets inside of the Hammerhead and does damage to it. Naze is surprised and is disgusted when he founds out that the kids have the Alaya-Vijnana system done on them by Maruba. Maruba says they are space rats and that is all they're good for. Amida and Azee decide to go after the ship but Akihiro is determined after thinking about what Mika said. Akihiro wants to keep his word that he can take them both. He is out matched by Amida and Azee but continues to put up a good fight. His Graze is damaged a lot but he still goes on and uses the arm cannon. Amida is liking how Tekkadan fights. Lafter crashes the Barbatos into an asteroid but Mika still holds on to the grappling hook and pulls her back. Mika and Lafter are rather evenly match and when Mika is about to go in for another attack, Orga tells him to hold off. This leaves the battles of Mika vs Lafter and Akihiro vs Amida and Azee to be draws. Lafter is upset that she can't finish the battle. Tekkadan and Turbine agree to make negations.

Episode 8

The episode starts off with a slight flashback of Tekkadan using the smokescreens. Orga and the others latch on to the Hammerhead with Mobile Workers and then breaks inside the ship. Tekkadan then gets a map of the ship, has a guy mess with the ship's electronics, and they plan to capture the bridge. When members of Teiwaz come to try and capture members of Tekkadan they shoot gas that can exploded in the ship if someone where to shoot. Naze ask if they can close off part of the ship to trap them but Tekkadan has already taken over the main frame. Maruba goes on a rant saying about members of Tekkadan being space rats and how they are invading but Naze has lost respect for him. Orga comes in the main room. Naze is impressed with Tekkadan and has basically turned against Maruba. Orga is about to execute him with a gun loaded to his face ans Maruba goes on about how he fed them. Orga points out he abandoned them and that many other kids have died because of that. Naze tells him no need to kill him. Naze tells them they shall discuss the deal and call his girls(Amida, Lafter, and Azee) off. Naze asks Amida how was it and she says she doesn't like fighting kids but the boys do have potential. Orga, Biscuit, Eugene, and Kudelia then begin talking with Naze. Orga first asks why the crew members are all women. Naze explains that they are all his wives and it shocks the others. Biscuit explains that they want to escort Kudelia to earth and that they want to be a subsidiary of Teiwaz. Naze says its fine and that he is going to the a person that is called "Old Man"(the boss of Teiwaz). Naze ask them what they know about Gjallarhorn and Kudelia goes on to explain stuff about the war 300 years ago. They tend talk about how there is 4 power blocs on Earth and that Kudelia could shake things up as a leader of the MARS independence movement. Mika and Akihiro are eating. Mika says Akihiro is a great pilot. Akihiro says he got wrecked but Mika says he was worse and goes off help with the Mobile Suit. Orga informs the others that they are going to talk with the boss of Teiwaz. They get a message from MARS saying they are very low on funds. Tekkadan can repair the custom Graze easy but they are not sure about the Barbatos. Orga sees Mika and tells him he did good. Mika tells him he isn't good enough yet and that he has to get better. Atra ask Kudelia to go to the other ship. Orga and Biscuit talks to Naze about the funds. They show them a lot of stuff seized from Gjallarhorn and Naze ask them are they that short on money. Naze ask them why did they refuse his offer for work and Orga says they(Tekkadan) can't be separated. Orga gives a speech about how Tekkadan is full of comrades, even the ones that have died back on Mars. Naze says if he is going to protect Tekkadan, he is going to have a heavy burden. Atra and Kudelia are smiling as they see Naze's various kids from his polygyny union. Amida explains only the babies are there and that the bigger kids are at school. Atra says she is happen to see Kudelia smile because she recently had a seriously look on her face. Orga tells Naze that he is willing to take responsibility for the lives in Tekkadan, even if he dies. Naze flicks him and tells him its no point if the leader of Tekkadan dies and they would be split up then. Naze explains that Tekkadan aren't comrades and that they're family. Naze says he shall help them with their money issue. When walking out a bit later Orga complains that he made himself look like a kid when talking to Naze. Biscuit tells him not to worry. Lafter and Akihiro are using a battle simulator. Akihiro is defeated but wants to keep training until he gets much better. Mika turn is next and he has a similar mindset like Akihiro. Orga is talking with Mika and ask him about training. Mika says he has to try hard so he won't get ditch. Orga says idiot and that its not about getting ditched because they're family. Orga tells Mika that he is going to reply on him.

They are in McMurdo Barristan's(Old Man) office and he ask Naze what do they want. Naze says he wants to take the Sakazuki blood oath to Orga. Barristan says he shall hold a ceremony for Tekkadan and Teiwaz to be brothers. Lafter is training with Akihiro and despite getting defeated he keeps wanting to train to get stronger. Atra and Azee are making food for people. When Atra is cleaning up Amida is there and she talks about men and marriage. She says the greatness of a man is measure by the amount of love he has, even if that love is shared by many women. That love is much great than an normal man. Amida then ask Atra if she would rather have gritty bread or share the best meat with everyone. Atra ask if she mean real food and says she never had meat of that quality. Amida tells her she would be a great wife. On the Gjallarhorn ship they are talking about how they are going to stop Tekkadan and Kudelia since they know they're going to Earth. Ein is thinking about how the kids of Tekkadan killed Crank and wants his revenge. Eugine, Biscuit, Orga and Naze are eating some great food. Naze tells them that they got an offer for the stuff the seize from Gjallarhorn. They were given a hell of a lot for the Graze reactor because on Gjallarhorn can make new Ahab Reactors. Orga calls Naze bro and Naze tells him to enjoy Saisei with money. It says that like his wives the kids must be stressed from all of that fighting and traveling so they should let some steam loose. Naze say he lets his wives take a break and its part of his duty as the head of the family. Orga decides to party with some of the profit. Kudelia and Mika are discussing things with Barristan. Barristan explains Kudelia's plan and how it could lead to a conflict and maybe even a war. He also explains that even if successful friction shall still remain between the sides. Kudelia says she has to think about things. Mika tells here its her choice and that either way people are going to die since they have came this far. Kudelia leaves the room to go think about things and Barristan ask Mika what his name is. Barristan tells Mika that his Mobile Suit is in good hands here. The younger kids in Tekkadan are happy to have a bunch of snacks and food that they normally wouldn't be able to eat. For the older Tekkadan members Orga takes them all to a bar. A woman called Merribit is there and says the bar is more lively since the guys are there. They have fun at the party and Orga over does it and gets drunk. He is throwing up a bit and Merribit walks by to give him handkerchief and tells him adults have to watch how they do adult things. Still drunk and out of it Orga tells them that they are a family and they shall have a great home to go to. Kudelia and Fumitan are talking about what to do. Kudelia knows in heart that she must go through with things. She also gives her a matching necklace that she brought while shopping. Orga is sitting on a chair and laying down on a table sleep more or less. They discuss the deal with Teiwaz and how they can keep going on because of Orga's guts. Orga wakes up later and sees one of the kids younger kids hording snacks. He says he is keeping them for later when the other kids complain and need to relax. Orga pats him on the head, laughs, and then throws ups again. One of the guys from Teiwaz that is working on the Barbatos is amazed at what he is seeing. The wives of Naze are helping the guys of Tekkadan with certain parts of their robes while Atra helps Kudelia with her dress. Mika is talking to Naze about the names. Naze show Mika his name in Japanese and Mika says he likes the Japanese characters better than the English letters. Orga walks in and Naze explains a bit about how to read the letters. During the ceremony Kudelia recalls a little meeting with Orga and tells Barristan that her hands are already stained with blood and that she is going to go through with things. They do the ceremony and Tekkadan and Teiwaz become blood brothers.

Is it just me or are there wayyyy too many sex references in this show. It is annoying how that one random guy keeps talking about tits and getting laid, obviously pointing out he banged a hooker that one time, pointing out the blond guy slept with a hooker, that little girl imagining sharing Mikazuki with the princess girl, the other captain guy having his own sex harem on the ship, and even the smaller boys talking about boobs and so on. I get that they're un-educated guys who have low IQ and nothing better to talk about, but c'mon, we get it.

It feels like too much, especially since they're all kids, stahp.

Not really. Quite normal for males to think about sex.

As for Naze having multiple wives, he is basically doing things the old school way. Atra is around Mikazuki's age so its not odd. Basically Naze does Polygyny(but not polygamy or polyandry). Atra wants to do the same thing.

In real life before Europeans did the legal government monogamy marriage thing, Polygyny was extremely common place. In fact things were like this basically. If a man and woman had sex they became married. A man could have has many wives as he wanted and almost all men back then have more than one. Some men who were really powerful like kings and stuff had 100s. A wedding ceremony was not necessary. If a wedding ceremony was done then the families would be invited and the man and woman would go in a private chamber, have sex, the woman would bleed on the sheets, and those sheets would be the token of virginity. The marriage would be consummated. If there was no wedding ceremony the marriage would still be consummated through sex.

Anyway I can't wait to see how things turn out. I like Akihiro's backstory.

She would have to wash clean and wash clothes for the older women there. She would get bullied by the people she work for and if she made a mistake they would not feed her for days. She runs away and sees Mika eating some food. Mika tells her she can't have any. Atra tells him that she is willing to work but Mika says the CGS is all male. Atra passed over due to starvation.

Lafter notice that Akihiro isn't fighting in a suicide like way. Before going out Takaki ask to join Akihiro and he says yes as its better to have eyes on patrol. While out in space Takaki explains how he wants to be strong and earn money to send his sister to school. Akihiro then tells him about his past where he had a family but then a gang of pirates shows up, kills the dad and mom, and him and his brother as Human debris. Akihiro hasn't seen his brother sense. Suddenly enemies shows up on the radar. Enemy Mobile Suits start shooting at them. They are in trouble but then Mika piloting an improved Barbatos shows up and takes out one of the Mobile Suits with a sword.

Yup, I actually knew all of that lol. I am not saying it's unrealistic, I am saying it's too much. It's also not uncommon for women to think about sex, especially in today's day and age.
