EPISODE CONTEXT

Picking up directly from 'Black Gundam' and the AEUG's bold strike on Green Noa 1, 'Departure' escalates the immediate fallout and cements the factional lines that will define the entire 50-episode run. It bridges the series' opening salvo with 'Inside the Capsule,' transitioning from pure combat chaos into the strategic and personal consequences that will shape Kamille's trajectory and the broader AEUG-Titans war. At episode 2 of 50, this is still foundational groundwork, but the velocity here signals that Zeta Gundam has no intention of easing viewers in gently.
