Gundam Double O - Obituary

After Episode 23, I was wondering just how many major cast members died or suffered major misfortune so far in Gundam Double O:


Lieutenant Ming (killed by Hallelujah Haptism in Episode 10)

Joshua_Episode15
Joshua (killed by Lockon Stratos in Episode 15)

Eifman_Episode17
Professor Eifman (killed by Johann Trinity in Episode 17)


Howard Mason (killed by Michael Trinity in Episode 17)

LouisseParents_Episode18
Louisse's parents (killed by Neena Trinity in Episode 18)


Louisse - lost her left hand (Episode 18)

Kinue Crossroad (killed by Ali Al Sanchez in Episode 20)

RagnaHarvey_Episode21
Ragna Harvey (killed by Ali Al Sanchez in Episode 21)


Michael Trinity (killed by Ali Al Sanchez in Episode 22)


Johann Trinity (killed by Ali Al Sanchez in Episode 22)


Aeolia Schenberg (killed by Alejandro Corner in Episode 22)

Lockon Stratos (killed by Ali Al Sanchez in Episode 23)

Not including Lieutenant Ming, 12 important casts exited the anime in just nine episodes starting from Team Trinity's debut in Episode 15, and we still have 2 episodes left before the series is over. I don't know about other anime series, but this kind of kill-rate can only be matched by Victory Gundam, which has 51 episodes.

Extremely realistic and intriguing, but mercilessly scary at the same time O_O

One of the scenes from the preview for next week's episode: the same nerve-wrenching one-on-one shooting scene between Nadleeh and GN-X. Will Tieria survives?
