I’m going to begin by merely assuming that you’re up to date on Gundam 00. If not then what are you waiting for? If you’re reading this then you’re obviously into Gundam 00. If you’re not I suggest going to pick it up. Anyway…
What is Celestial Beings true goal? World domination? The right hand of the Union? It sure as hell isn’t peace. Peace isn’t forged through war and any good pacifist knows that fighting to stop war is only helping it last longer unless you want one side to win.

The plot moves along at a slow pace only because there is so much plot to go through. Each episode (so far of the four I’ve seen) contain tons and tons of plot but like any fifty plus episode series there is so much to go and so much you don’t know.
