HG 1/144 Gundam AGE-FX - Updated yet again with Vegan Gundam, Line arts, and more 1/144 images.
That's a lot of bits/funnels. So is this going to be an upgrade to the AGE-3 or another unit all together?

Gundam Age Episode 35 - Black History
I feel like the 3rd generation of Age is finally stepping up to the plate. After watching this episode you get an idea of where things are going especially since we've seen screen shots of the new AGE Gundam thats going to come out soon. It also makes sense as to why they are rolling out the new wears for the AGE-3 so fast.
As for the episode, they take the majority of the first half showing how the entire Diva crew is lamenting on finding out about the Super Pirate Pilot, especially Kio and Flit. Again, as much as we've seen Flit soften from the rock he was at the 2nd Generation it still comes back.
The episode also reveals the "curse" Ash/Asemu was talking about the last episode. It feels like a Turn-A situation where an old civilization's lost technology. Now it's a race to see which one makes use of that treasure or if it gets destroyed, obviously it will be the former. Char's suit also gets an upgrade with the Vegans conveniently knowing some of that lost technology and introducing AGE's bit/funnel/dragoon, which to me are not that impressive because they are balls of light that move around. Considering they hit the AGE-3 in the back and didn't do much it feels like its just a distraction. How much practicality would it really have either if the opponent is a Newty.. I mean an X-Rounder?
Towards the end the action picks up with the Vegans attacking the Diva, again. The AGE-3 Orbital makes its day appearance and ends the episode in an actual cliff hanger. Is this the first actual real cliff hanger in the series? I don't remember but its good when used sparingly. Looking forward to the next episode!

I usually don't like red mobile suits, but the color combination for this is just wonderful! If they made this even in 1/144 HG I would get it!

Gundam Age Episode 34 - Super Pirate Pilot Ash
By the end we have the Bisidians, Vegans, and the Diva crew all gunning for the Vegans because of a clever strategy from Flit. Asemu also ends up saving his son and leaving him a present in the end. I won't even get into the father/son issues that being the father was thought to be MIA for years. But, Kio could've just separated the Gundam into the core fighter and the G-Cepter. I don't understand why he didn't do that, or is he not able to because they singled out the cockpits and it can't separate anymore? Asemu keeps on saying he's a super pilot. If he was he shouldn't have that big scar on his face and end this war! Flit also lets the cat out of the bag and tells Kio who was actually piloting that AGE-2 Variant. I look forward to more clashes between father and son. I can picture the end already, all three generations teaming up for the big finale. Unless someone dies of course.
Next episode, we're already seeing the Orbital. I guess its only fitting because they're in space now. It also feels like they're doing this to make up for the one wear we get in the 2nd generation and the fact that there are more Gundams coming outside of the AGE-3 Normal, Fortress, and Orbital. Can't wait to see the Orbital in action!

Gundam AGE Episode 33 - Captain Butts steps up!
.jpg)
As Char looks on, Captain Einus steps up to the plate... for a few seconds...
Kio clashes again with Char and the two exchange words. We get it already, Kio is very naive towards war and that issue comes back again at the end of the episode.
They spend the rest of the episode bomb hunting, talking, and going back to space..jpg)
Compared to the 2nd generation of AGE, Flit looks like he mellowed a bit on the entire revenge and genocide of the entire Vegan race. We see it, more so, at the end when he comforts Kio a little while letting him know the truth of the entire situation. It was something you didn't expect between Flit and Asemu.
This is another alright episode but at least compared to the past few, it seems a bit better. The Fortress against Zeheart's suit was a pretty neat thing to watch. Although Kio showing off his hacks X-Rounder abilities, throwing the bomb when there was about 1-2 seconds left seems a bit odd. I get that it adds a dramatic effect but how the AGE-3 survived that explosion is beyond me. Yes I know this is an anime.
The real reason I am exited about this episode is that the next episode we get another special treat!

Gundam Unicorn Episode 5
The subs are now out! You should know where to find them.
Another solid episode! While almost every character grows even more, some just completely breaks down. We get to see Riddhe just snap. Its a sad thing to see when a person is engulfed so much by emotions that they forget about their lucky charm.Its nice to see the actual main protagonist not wallow in self pity.
Bright, its always nice to see you. Always the adult... I think?
Amuro, you're reduced to a picture frame.
Last few minutes was a treat to see Cha.... Full Frontal in action along with the Rozen Zulu. It was such a shame because I like the color of those Rezels.

Gundam Age Episode 32 - Uragirimono!
Well, there goes episode 32.
*Deep breath in*
A new vegan fleet approaches earth, the Age-3 is remodeled so that only one pilot is needed, Shanalua does her big sister role, Grand pa Flit lectures the kancho, Vegans attack, a spy is accused, mobile suits are launched, Kio disobeys orders, guy in cloak attacks, tragic death scene, vegans plant a bomb, and Zeheart does close to nothing but swim around n shoot at walls. A STELLAR episode wouldn't you say? Yes that was sarcasm.
 |
| This is how i feel for most of AGE |
The traitor was pulled out from Zeheart's chunky behind. It felt so forced, along with the traitor's death, and the spy's contact(oh so unmemorable), and along with any vegan grunt that's died so far in the entire AGE series.
With such a terrific start to AGE's 3rd generation, its been laying on its tummy for the past few episodes. Holding out hope it gets better!
We get to see the Z'Goks of AGE at least!

| Zeheart, you're useless. |
- UPDATE -
Thinking about it, at least AGE isn't as bad as Destiny.
RIP Ms Shanalua

Gundam Age Episode 31 - Geymalk...I mean Seravee... I mean Fortress!
Kio's aunt magically appears on the Diva, unnecessary conflict is stirred and resolved between main and supporting characters, The Diva is attacked by sand fishes - the Black Tri Star! Wait.... something's not right.Anyway, Kio shows off his X-Rounder abilities some more this episode. Though with "superior" tactics you, his newtypeness didnt help! Then again, more guns + bigger guns > tactics; and apparently, causes the bad guys to forget all about any kind of tactics.
We get it, there's nothing to be happy about in war.
Another alright episode. The upside, its action packed and we get to see the Fortress in action!

| Kio: Ms. Shanalua look! I KILLED THEM ALL! =] |

| Kio: I did it all for you! |
 |
| Shanaluauauaua: You did well |

| Kio: Must K-i-l-l! Must score more POINTS! |
