It's mostly a pretty standard overview but there's a bonus section in the back where they assess the Zeta men's romantic viability and Quattro's dressing down in particular is so brutal, so utterly savage, I just had to translate it... rekt

It always bothered me that Kamille seemed to be into Emma during the pre-Jaburo arcs but when he returned to space they decided to pretend that never happened. Thank you, japanese databooks, for telling me I wasn't imagining it.

Emma is a fine lady. As the sole owner of common sense and reason in Zeta Gundam, friggin everyone should be falling head over heels for the woman. Emma is the best, is what I'm trying to say.

He also, despite everything, somehow managed a successful marriage and lived to enjoy his retirement, so, you know, good for him. (I assume its success is entirely due to Mirai.)

AradoBalanga posted:I'm rather curious as to what "romantic loan delinquency" means. I assumed it to mean (direct phrasing btw) that he keeps taking out emotional loans he can't/doesn't intend to repay. Then feigns ignorance when women come to collect (see Haman, Reccoa). RentACop posted:Please tell me there's one for Yazan or Jerid Unfortunately no, there are entries for Kamille, Bright and Amuro though. Amuro gets raked over the coals pretty good for being an uncharismatic sadsack when not actively being pushed into the cockpit by a pretty woman. Kamille gets compared to River Phoenix. Bright is apparently completely and utterly whipped. dazat fucked around with this message at 01:02 on Feb 13, 2017 |

I don't know that I'd call it successful given than he spends the vast majority of the first two decades or so of marriage in space fighting war after war. I'm surprised his kids even recognise him really.

And there's no importance at all to the fact that Tomino once discussed the placement of his new show in a timeline. And yes, I recognize that Tomino himself probably doesn't care about canon, but if he was discussing it in a manner in which it was accepted then it's not because there isn't one.

There is literally no special "canon" distinction in Gundam. Sunrise doesn't give a poo poo. The only distinction they make is between animated stuff and everything else. In fact, caring about what is "canon" or not seems to be a particularly western obsession.

This is absolutely untrue. There are plenty of Japanese fans who care about canon, I've seen them complaining about retcons or what is/isn't in continuity

MonsieurChoc posted:There is literally no special "canon" distinction in Gundam. Sunrise doesn't give a poo poo. The only distinction they make is between animated stuff and everything else. That second part isn't actually true, and is the reason several prominent creators, like Tomino and Kawamori have had to publicly discuss canon in some form or another. Leiji Matsumoto is probably the biggest Japanese creator to really eschew canon, since he deliberately puts inconsistencies in all his works that make them at least minutely incompatible with each other no matter what from what I know. Several of them don't really care for canon, but that doesn't mean the fans of their work don't. Or the people publishing them. There is no Japanese word specifically meaning "canon" as far as I'm aware, but the word for they use to distinguish "official" is often translated as "canon" because the concepts are used for similar things in Japanese culture. Sunrise themselves have never commented on how official (or canon) anything in Gundam is. It's possible to view this as them not having a concept of canon, but it's also possible to see this as them just not choosing to speak about what is and isn't official one way or another. Which is useful when they're trying to maximize sales and not speaking about it at all makes it easier to sell anything they want. The idea that only animated stuff is official though isn't even something Sunrise themselves said. It's something that several Gundam producers said in an interview about 15 years ago that was specifically discussing whether the suits in the Gihren's Greed game(s) were official or not. Sunrise have never issued a statement one way or the other about how official anything, animated or not, is. The producers said that only the animated suits were official though. They even stated that these suits were "white", while some stuff was obviously not official, and thus "black", but many things were sort of official and sort of un-official and that these were "grey". And that how official they were just depended on context, and whether them being official caused any problems with the existing stories. Which is the kind of language that Lucasarts uses when discussing Star Wars canon. Sunrise don't comment on whether something is official or not, but at the same time it's pretty drat obvious that at least the animated media from 0079 to at least Unicorn form a single timeline and contain events that build upon each other. Which is really all that canon is at the end of the day. How much you want to count other stuff is really up to the individual after that, if only because so much of the rest is untranslated and hard to find even if it is translated in some form.
