It was on this day that his greatest enemy defeated, the true lord of darkness arose. His name? MARIO.
Voting for Zeon because why not?

Now that we've seen Norris Packard in action, albeit briefly, I'm gonna go into why he's cool.

Remember how I said 08th MS Team was about The Other Guys of the One Year War? It follows a squad of Feddie pilots in jury-rigged RX-79 Gundams, trying to hold out against the Zeon during the Battle of Earth. Whereas most Gundam is high-flying Top Gun aces-and-heroes stuff that focuses more on the drama of rivalry between pilots and vast political intrigue, 08th MS Team is all about gritty infantry warfare where there's not much glory, just a lot of bullshit to be shoveled. The heroes are competent, but not amazing ace god-slayers like most of the protags in other Gundam shows. And then you have Norris Packard.

You see, Norris Packard exists, largely, to show the difference between 'competent soldiers' and 'genuine Mobile Suit ace.' :black101:

Man I love the 08th team so much, one of my favorite gundam series growing up.

Pilots and mechs, yes. Plot, no.
Ok thanks.

Unicorn's weird for me. I loved it, but I stopped watching after ep 4 out of 7 and just never got around to finishing it. I should do that at some point. I'm ashamed to admit that I got really happy when Bright Noa had his 15 second cameo.

I liked it, any UC gundam in this day and age is always nice to me.

Voting No because breaking canon is what this game is all about.
