Mobile Suit Gundam SEED/Headscratchers: Difference between revisions

*** Have you SEEN how long the Valiants are? By the time you got the barrel aimed anywhere NEAR the (fast-moving) enemy suits, the damn things would be dragging in the water. Not to mention how slow the Valiants are to rotate, and the fact the gunners apparently can't hit the broad side of a ''Naszca'' with them, let alone mobile suits.

* What the hell was up with those gunmen who came after Lacus in the theater? I understand she was being hunted for treason, but why did they all wear spy gear (suits, gloves, silencers on their pistols) to find her? We saw earlier that Patrick Zala had no problem sending uniformed soldiers to kill Seigl Cline, and he had already claimed Lacus an enemy of the state. Was it really necessary to hire a hit squad to take down Lacus rather than just having a military squad on standby in case Athrun made contact? It just seems out of place.

** Sending the guys in spy gear is also a little less obvious than sending soldiers. Assuming that he was aware of Lacus' support and bodyguards, Patrick wouldn't want to send someone who could be detected so easily.

* How did Kira possibly get in the Freedom Gundam, leave the PLANT, evade ZAFT forces ''and'' get to Alaska in time to save the Archangel? Even if we assume the PLANT was relatively close to Earth it should have taken the fastest possible vessel hours<ref> assuming applied phlebotinum sped him up, if it were realistic it would have been more like days at best</ref> to get there. By the time he was shown the Gundam the battle was already close to self-destruct time, they should have been long dead before he even reached Earth's atmosphere!
