Wing still remains THE Gundam show in North America's consciousness at large. Smart that they'd appeal to that crowd.

Fa is THE time-honored support pilot in SRW and the Methuss is THE repairbot who has saved beaten up mechs an uncountable number of times.

Sei/Reiji have not appeared in a SRW.

Advantage: Fa.

I mean, Engage has been putting out really good looking cutscenes for months now, and the IBO game has full voice and cutscenes animated by one of Sunrise's regular studios. Not a surprise, really.

Thinking about it, that UC engage clip is basically what char was hoping for: A very dramatic final duel. Compare that to the original in CCA, which while very kinetic, is far more naturalistic in its depiction of two dudes trying to kill eachother with giant robots.

Now I'm curious about how many feminine coded mobile suits exist across the franchise. I made a joke about bridesmaids mobile suits in the G Witch thread being the Aerial, Nobell, Nadleeh and the Dom. Any other particular suits stand out? Maybe the Gerbera Tetra or the Hamma Hamma?

Despite their color schemes I don't really find the Quebeleys to really fit the bill. Most of the psycommu suits and newtype use suits in general have more animalistic identities, primarily birds, imo.

There's also the GN Archer, the Farsia, Miss Sazabi, arguably the Mobile Dolls from the Diver universe even though they aren't Mobile Suits, and the ones from Sengoku that are just women robots

edit: and the Rozen Zulu and I think there's a girl Leo in G-Unit

I lumped the Rozen Zulu more in with the "effeminate flower guy" motif that Angelo was going for.

I count the Sinanju as a female MS, because it's like a Ferrari in MS form.

Does the concert ZAKU from SEED count? Also the Adale from Age is a feminine coded MS to me for some reason.

Are we talking about the design of the suit being femininely coded in and of itself, or are we including stuff from the show? Because if it's the former the Rozen Zulu definitely counts, and if it's the latter the Rising Gundam definitely counts

I can guess the reason you think the Adele is a girl.

The soft/pastel colors and one of their pilots being one of the more decent parts of AGE. The name also helps I guess.

I feel it's more of the design itself. The Aerial and the Barbatos are quite clearly feminine and masculine designs without any further context clues from their respective series. Meanwhile I wouldn't consider something like the Phenex or the Kshatriya to be feminine designs. One is a golden bird and the other is an angry laser bell pepper.

Barbatos is more animalistic or demonic than it is Masc. or Feminine. It's proportions are too skewed by the time it's Lupus Rexed to ascribe any human qualities onto it.

naginata is culturally-understood visual shorthand for woman fighting so rising gundam doesn't need the show context

Way back in the Try thread there was a discussion about whether the GM Cardigan was female-coded or not (because cardigans are seen as clothing for women I believe) and this sounds like the right moment to bring that up again.
