Not good the first 15 minutes. No intro, seems to have a ton of commercials, and without that TOONAMI break w/ the cool music it doesn't feel right. They better have the ending at least.

A bulk of the episode is recaps. But near the end showed new material, but I forgot what happened. Mad

It's so late so I'm sleeping.

It's basically a second recap episode focusing on the mobile suits (since it's being told through the point of view of one of Morganroete's head technicians reviewing Strike's combat data or somesuch). The only really noteworthy points are that they hint around about the spoiler[SEED Factor (although nothing's definitively stated...this is actually the closest they get in the entire series to covering the issue, sadly)] and Orb's new mass-production mobile suit, the M1 Astray, is introduced in the last few minutes.

I didn't know about this rescheduling, so I flipped to CN at midnight CST expecting to see more rerun of .hack//TWILIGHT (since I missed an ep or two the first time around). Was surprised - but not disappointed - to see Gundam SEED there.

Hmmm, I thought they were only going to run the first 26 episodes at this time? Are they now going to run the rest of the initial 52?

Yeah, I was rather miffed at that too-_- I can't believe that they would voice over such a good song...and I like the animation for that ending, even if it isn't as good as the original ending for the DVDs. *sigh*

I would think so. I also thought they would only run the first half of the series, wait for more dubbing to be finished, and then air another season of it later. I guess I was wrong, it seems that Gundam Seed is still going strong^^;

Damnn Straight.

they always vioce over the ending. i have it raw the ending and the intro are tied into the story.
the thing that pissed me off is they cut about 5 mins out of every episode. mostly parts of the story that go over the intro outro. or they comercial break before the outro so it doesn't fit or you forget what they. were talking about.
you want clean intro and ending get the dvd what a strange thing to complain about. i think its great that theres a reason to watch both. and they tie in so well.
i know terry means bird but torry sounded cooler and a hello just isn't cool without the acent.

seed is awesome i think its much truer to the original then the latest iterations (sd what the hell were you thinking) and i love the mech desighns much more machine and not all this new bio crap. Thats so popular now. Back to the original strugle new types versus norms or sorry colaborators versus norms.

Yea i thought the same too...Gues I was wrong. I got bored last night and flipped on CN. Well I was had forgot about Seed being on but I olny missed like the first 3 minutes. It looks like they are going to run all of the episodes now. I'm glad though. I have the first 3 discs and the game for GBA. (Gundam Seed Battle Assualt) I taped it last night in case I feel asleep. After seeing the ending I am interested in what will happen and also what Athrun and his group are going to do. I haven't seen any of it excpet what's been on TV and DVD. Anyways, I am even more excited about it continuing instead of reruns, but I still would have watched it. I hate they didn't show the ending to River by Tatuya Ishii. I like all the openings and endings along with their sequences so far. I've seen the sequences for Invoke, Moment, and Anna ni issho datta no ni. They are all great.

BTW madaudet03, by voicing the ending I meant they talked about Cyborg 009 coming up next during the song. When it was on TOONAMI the song played uninterrupted. Also it's Natuarals vs. Coordinators.

I think everyone in here talking in this forum knows that or at least I hope they do. Kira belongs to the coordinators but he wont fight with them since he has many close natural friends on the archangel. Athrun and everyone on his side are the Coordinators and Mu La Flaga and everyone on his side are the Naturals.
