Gundam 00 Season 2 – Episode 02

Posted by hatemachine

Did you know that “Gundam” spelled backwards is “Madnug”?

With that bit of trivia, let’s take a look at the second episode of season 2 of Gundam 00.

And keeping up with the whole “two” theme going on, the episode is called “Twin Drives.”  And we start off with I AM GUNDAM I AM HEERO YUY CLONE Setsuna F. Seiei talking to Lyle Dylandy, the twin of Neil Dylandy aka Lockon Stratos.  How many times have I used two or a term that infers two now?  Speaking of which, I’m already on my second shot of vodka.

We get to hear Kathy, Soma and Andrei chew the fat when we suddenly pan to Graham chilling out with a drink.  Can you imagine how uncomfortable it must have been for the guys at the water cooler minding their own business talking about random shit when some masked dude comes out of fucking nowhere to try and get a drink?  I mean, wouldn’t that just stop the conversation DEAD COLD because you’d get all nervous thinking Graham might have overheard the tail end of your comment about how Hillary Clinton looks like Leatherface and thought it was a reference to how Graham has to wear a mask?  And then future encounters with Graham will be forever awkward because of it?  Fuck, I need another drink just thinking about it.

Dude, I totally misplaced my pink cardigan sweater!  ZETSUBOUSHITA!!!

Looking kind of “please don’t let the clowns eat me” there, Saji Crossroad.  Also, Mileina Vashti sounds chirpy as fuck.  “HEY THERE PLEASE DEAL WITH THE FACT THAT YOU’RE BEING LOCKED UP ‘KAY?  ;D”  I hope she gets shot in the throat.  Speaking of which, time to drown my vocal chords in vodka again!

Misato Katsuragi Sumeragi Lee Noriega gets plastered again, and Billy Katagiri attempts to intervene.  I’m sure Billy’s been tapping that.  You know, I gotta say, as good as Sumeragi looks, I’m not attracted to her.  I dunno… she just has that vibe. You know, the vibe a woman gives off when her vagina smells like rotten fish.

Anyway, Setsuna shows up and reveals to Billy that Sumeragi was Celestial Being’s coordinator and Billy’s all shocked and blah blah blah, yadda yadda yadda.  Fuck, I wish I had Irish blood running through me, because then my liver might have a fighting chance!

Hey guys, I’m the brother of the guy that got killed off purely as shock value to the viewers of the show!  How convenient that we were twins and sound exactly alike!  Now I get to take over my brother’s role as a Gundam Meister despite the fact that I was clearly not trained to be a Meister in any way, shape or form!  I’M SURE THINGS WILL GO SWELL FOR ME

Man, Shirin Bakhtiar fills that outfit quite nicely.  From now on, I shall refer to her as “Tits McGee.”  Even the two guys notice Tits McGee’s sand bags.  Don’t see it?  Here, I’ll show you:

Good taste, gentlemen.  And hopefully someone out there uses this scene as the basis for a doujin.

So for all of season one, Marina Ismail sat down and watched TV as shit hit the fan.  For the new season, she decides to shake it up by just sitting down.  Then a couple of officers come barging in and place her under arrest.  Did they really need to wear all that armor?  What were they afraid of – did they think Marina was going to throw the remote at them?  Maybe used a rolled up TV Guide as a makeshift blunt object?

Wang Liu Mei, aka Chinese Bitch drinks tea and makes a dumb comment as Hong Long, aka Chinese Alto Saotome makes his best annoyed Alto face and Nena, the cuntrag Gundam Throne Meister from the first season takes an order from Chinese Bitch.  I’m quite certain this is how it’s going to play out for at least 20 more episodes.

Man, Setsuna’s spacesuit is almost skintight.  But he still doesn’t hold a candle next to Ned Flanders.

This is pretty much how the scene above played out:

Mileina: 00 GUNDAM IS EMITTING RAINBOW COLORS

Ian: FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

Ribbons: Shit just got real.

Get used to this.  And by that, I mean 00 Gundam being overpowered as fuck, blowing up all the shit that gets thrown at it and Saji Crossroad brooding harder than Jean Reno.

Regene mocks Ribbons – I’m sure Regene will get his shit pushed in soon enough.  The Celestial Being Crew is shocked with the arrival of Lyle Dylandy while Tieria laments over the fact that Lyle isn’t the man that he wanted to be butt buddies with.  Marina is locked up in jail, passing the time by…sitting down…and Sunrise tosses a bone to the (H)Allelujah fans by showing him for a total of five seconds.

23 more episodes of this?  Good lordy lord, I don’t know if I can take 23 more seconds of this.
