You're saying that slapping Kira in the face is ever not valid?

Lol Kira slapped Cagalli. He has a point though.

And still, nobody has punched Flay in the face.

Indeed. Kinda funny that one of Mark Oliver's only other VA roles that I've seen is a southern hillbilly Decepticon. Night and day,really.

Well, up until they wrote her out of the series for 30 episodes and then tried to make her a generic Gundam Girl Martyr.

Don't worry about it. She's just that way and she's about to so some real dope poo poo involving Zoids and rocket launchers.

I really wish Gundam SEED was Zoids.... That was a better show.

I never got the appeal of Cagalli at any point in time. Her sole saving grace is that she's not Lacus.

Eh it's nice to have a more assertive tomboyish character in gundam.:shrug:. Though anything involving her being the princess of orb sucks.

I'll remind you that I have a very large stick.

Pala Sys is great. Introduced saving Garrod's rear end, beats top-of-the-line ace Mobile Suits in nothing more than a cool jet, and she didn't even end up with a forced romance, one-sided with the main character!

I think the low-quality generic 90s anime animation gives it a special charm. It reminds me of Trigun's shoddy animation and art.

I like her too, but I wish she did more after saving Garrod. It's clear the creators wanted her to do more, but the cancellation really scaled back her role to the point where she almost felt useless.

Her character design can be somewhat freaky at times tho. She's ridiculously round and looks like she's from another show entirely. When she has her mouth open, she looks like a weird fish-human hybrid.

X did kinda get canceled. There were a ton of things they obviously had planned, like Ennil's Gundam, that got scrapped.

At least there's SRW and G-Gen.

Newtype dolphins are bigger assholes and hypocrites than Newtype humans. :colbert:

It's a reference to something, I know I saw something with the same template but not Gundam characters in a weird fanart thread elsewhere years ago.

Glossing over that nightmarish image, I've decided to binge watch wing. I'm in the middle of building tallgeese and it makes me miss seeing it in action. I might skip the first couple episodes but we'll see if I can handle it in mass quantities.

Peter McNicol's death makes no sense; he charged at Jesus with a stick, very slowly and Jesus pulled back from attacking the aegis. Then the impossible happened and the Blitz gundam "stuck" itself onto the big sword, but it didn't look like Christ swung it in attack or defense. Did I miss something??

Assuming you're watching the remaster: They changed that. In the original Kira clearly swings at Nicol.

It is seriously the most inane retcon because it makes no sense.

"Hm, yes, Kira swings at someone attacking him in surprise and kills them. This is tragic and sad and everyone feels guilt about it. No, no, that's too ambiguous. Kira needs to be COMPLETELY blameless."
