Gundam 00 Episode 20

Blade of Revolution

First of all, special thanks to Anon who commented in my previous posting for the link to Manyou. ^^ Not only is the uploading of this episode faster, the quality is indeed much better than that on Tudou. Thanks very much for the information! ^^

As the three factions of the world have finally gave up the fights against each others to concentrate on eliminating the Gundams, everything seems to be working against the Celestial Beings now. First is the fight between the Meisters and Team Trinity, next comes the betrayal of Alejandro Corner, and now, even Wong Liu Mei doesn't seem to be trustworthy anymore... or is she planning a trap against them? We'll have to wait for the answers in coming episodes.

On the other hand, Kinue's investigation lead her to someone extremely dangerous, Ali. While she got more information from him as compared to all the other petty sources in the past, I have great concern of whether she will have to pay with her life for such information, and whether she will be able to reveal the story to the world...

Luckily, the relationship between the crew of Ptolemaios has improved a great deal since the last episode. I believe such intimacy is necessary to at least keep them alive against their enemies in future fights, which no longer consist of Tieren, Flag, Enact and other cannon fodders. As mentioned before, the three factions received their 'miracles' last episode, and deployed their GN-Xs almost immediately this week, with Team Trinity being the first victim.

Personally, I find the Celestial Beings' objective of "uniting the world to fight against the Celestial Beings" to be quite ridiculous. Don't you think so? What if the world does manage to achieve that ultimate goal, and the Celestial Beings are gone. What makes them think that the world won't go back to the Stone Age and fight against each others again? Now that the secret behind the Gundams are all out in the sun, I give my safe bet that the world would use it to produce some worse weapons than all the previous older MSs, and not even the Celestial Beings will be able to stop them when that happens.

Other interesting points:
