A clipshow OP would be fine so long as it's edited well and matches the song. BLAZING didn't.

Man the new episode was absolutely packed with info, UC gets namedropped, there were new suits, and the preview just casually confirmed Bellri and Aida are related...at least distantly. With so little time left I think the Gondwan/Amerian war won't see a resolution, but all the Towasanga stuff is immediately more interesting.

I don't think Bellri really needed to reiterate his desire to not kill people three (was it more?) times, but that's about the extent to which I agree with the Kira comparison. Also, I don't see how the G-Self and its arsenal of largely useless upgrades are more "Mary Sue"-ish than early 00 CB or Gundam Wing.

Gimme a mo and I'll see if I can clean up the other one as well. And done.

That kind of thing screams web exclusive.

Web exclusive meaning Japan only/Japan addresses only? Sorry, I'm still new to gunpla stuff.

Web exclusive means it's exclusive to Bandai's online shop/online shops like GG Infinite, usually at a premium. Usually it's stuff like Strike Rouge Ootori Kira Yamato Colors, but occasionally there's some great stuff like the Moonlight Butterfly set for the HGCC Turn A and the Seraphim Feather stand for the RG Wing Zero Custom.

Ah, thanks. My only worry was it being something that required a buying service, but exclusives just being expensive LEs doesn't sound bad. I just hope G-Reco gets more kits, since there are like five suits I still want aside from the Hecate and already released ones.

Looking at gginfinite's markup, I almost wonder if buying services end up cheaper. Probably something to ask the Gunpla thread if an interesting exclusive shows up.

Cahill reminded me of Sleggar, so I assumed he was in his 20's (probably mid).

Reading that post, I can only assume they're confusing 0080 with 0083 because there's no way it's possible to be that vehemently wrong.

0083 is the only Gundam show I deleted after watching. I kinda regret not having 24/7 access to Men of Destiny, though.

e: Kou bring a grown adult who's picky about vegetables is the one character trait I remember and loathe him for it.

G-Reco didn't shoot to the top of my favorite Gundams list (it's definitely in top 5, tied with others) like for some others, but it's got enough good qualities that the hate is kinda baffling. Some of the best mechanical design in the franchise, dynamic fights, great character animation, several likable and interesting characters (Aida, Klim, Cumpa, etc), and the resolution was both obvious and satisfying. I also really liked the lighter tone and humor in the show.

I liked G-Reco. I will say that I had to look in this thread more than once because of confusion but it was nice having weekly glimpses at a chill rear end robot show with excellent music. The fact that it looked like Eureka Seven also gave it a lot of points for me.

You should watch Overman King Gainer, if you haven't already. It's another Tomino show with designs by Kenichi Yoshida. It's similar in tone to G-Reco but definitely more understandable and with more good characters.

Grimoire, G-Arcane/Self/Lucifer, Hecate, Z'gocky, Dharma, Dahack, Recten/Recksnow (#1 no contest), Neodu, Armorzagan, Mack Knife, Moran, Gastima, Mazraster, and Gaeon. And apparently I like the Catsith enough to want the kit.

The Hecate beam chainsawed missiles and used those adorable missile bits. Both significant enough accomplishments in my book.

Yeah the Bifron sucks. It's basically a fat Hecate and the only cool thing it did was some Shiva arm spinning stuff. I'm also not a big fan of the Wuxia, Zacks, Ten Police suits or the Elmoran. The Gaitrash is a weird one for me because I like some things about it (body, beam cape) and hate others (the head). Also the Kabakali's shinguards suck.

my copy came today so i made some mediocre scans: http://imgur.com/a/aJh9v
