Building upon the first volume we get into depression, loss of purpose, and back stabbing.

Char really gets to showcase himself here, a cunning, sexy, piece of flying turd shit he is. He's got a lot of layers, scheming at all times, while also always wanting to have the absolute power in the room. I love how he works and thinks, and makes for a excellent villain.

On the other hand Amaro is going through it. Dealing with depressing and not wanting to be used as a tool yet the only one to be able to pilot the Gundam like he does, it leads to a lot of great questions. He goes back to earth to see his mother, but this may not be the reunion he hoped.

Great look into war, loss, and of course kids and young adults being used as props and tools to win something almost unwinnable. Excellent stuff.
