The Gundam Origin manga is really, really good too if people want to read Gundam instead of watching it

Actually, I cared about Wing, I just thought it was boring as heck. I thought all the mobile suits were super cool, though. I still have a bunch of Gundam action figures when those were actually sold here, including BATTLED SCARRED ones

All the music in Victory is really good. Some of it has a melancholic vibe that suits the show. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jng-lH4q2b8

I watched the first episode of Turn A and holy cow! The setting is so cool. It doesn't even feel like a Gundam series, which is definitely a nice change of pace. That episode really moves, too. This definitely fits in with Gainer and G Reco with hitting the ground running. I wish more shows did that.

Amuro was taking out battleships and mobile armors like they were nothing in the original series, if I recall right. I don't remember anyone tearing through ships quite so easily, unless they were just going straight for the bridge. Amuro was just shredding them in half

http://www.rightstufanime.com/Mobile-Suit-Zeta-Gundam-Collection-1-Blu-ray I'm glad these are coming out at a decent clip. I wonder if they'll just run through putting stuff out chronologically at this point, aside from the more recent series

Isn't Thunderbolt just being streamed for pay online in Japan? Is that really something you can miss?

EthanSteele posted:Unicorn is like an ultra distillation of all things Gundam, any Gundam you watch after it will have things in it where you'll go "oh that's like X" so you're not far off on the IBO comparison, just gotta remember the order of origins. don't actually do this, it's an uninteresting way to think about characters and tends to plague gundam discussion.

full frontal sucks because you can tell they wanted to use char, but they couldn't because that would be hosed up, so they give us a fake-char, who is char is his basic personality and beliefs but lacks any of the character and nuance and humanity that char had so all of his actions feel empty. he's an empty vessel! he calls himself a vessel, and maybe that was what they were going for, but they don't do anything with it so he's just some boring antagonist who fades to dust because newtypes or whatever char can't be in gundam unicorn. even so, char is in gundam unicorn

there's also the fact that Deikun created his philosophy after people had been living in space for a while, possibly from observing people living in space? not just, "hey here's something that might happen, eventually" when you see what lapace's box is its such an obvious contrivance, everything from how its worded to what its implications are supposed to be. they even try to downplay its meaning in the show, saying that whatever it said was no longer as important as the Feds keeping something secret. you can logic it out all you want but as a device in a show that's telling a story it falls flat on its loving face

also I agree that Full Frontal's plan is totally sound, I just wish they spent a "little" bit more time fleshing him out, even if that's time spent reiterating that he himself feels like he's a hollow shell of a human being

i don't loving care if it's the best plan ever or if it would be actually successful, all I mean is that it has a semblance of logic and base in reason. Minerva points out its flaws to Full Frontal when he reveals it, and they're about creating an underclass of Earth dwellers who will resent spacenoids, not economical logistics. presumably Earth depends on space colonies for resources whereas the space colonies are self-sufficient

if there's a flaw with frontal's plan, its that no one has been able to unite all the space colonies against the federation, but maybe he thinks the box would change that?
