Ep 7. E 7

In GATE season 1 episode 7, titled "E 7," the focus is largely on a battle between the JSDF and the dragon that has been causing havoc in the area. The dragon, who we met at the end of the previous episode, is causing great destruction and is being seen as a major threat to the safety of the people of the town. As a result, the JSDF are forced to become involved in the conflict and they begin preparing for battle.

While the conflict between the JSDF and the dragon may take center stage in this episode, there are a number of other plot threads running throughout as well. We also get to see more of the relationship between Itami and Lelei, who are slowly developing feelings for one another. There is also some political intrigue at play, with the Emperor discussing the implications of the ongoing conflict in the territory and trying to come to a decision about how to proceed.

One of the most interesting elements of this episode is the way in which it explores the differences between the JSDF and the people of the fantasy world. As the two sides gear up for battle, they realize that they have vastly different approaches to warfare. The JSDF is highly organized and methodical, relying on advanced technology and a well-trained army to get the job done. The people of the fantasy world, on the other hand, are still largely relying on medieval weaponry and tactics.

As the battle between the JSDF and the dragon begins, it quickly becomes apparent just how much the two sides differ. The JSDF are able to launch rockets and engage the dragon from a distance, while the people of the fantasy world are largely reliant on close-range combat with swords and spears. The difference in technology gives the JSDF a clear advantage, but the people of the fantasy world quickly adapt and begin to come up with new tactics to try and take down the dragon.

Overall, GATE season 1 episode 7 is a fantastic installment in the series. It manages to balance action, romance, and politics in a way that feels natural and engaging. The battle between the JSDF and the dragon is thrilling to watch, and the exploration of the differences between the two sides adds an extra layer of depth to the conflict. If you've been enjoying GATE so far, this episode is definitely not one to miss.
