Wait, Char wanted to nuke the earth to be uninhabitable hellhole to force humanity to flee to space to survive? Oh my god, gently caress all of these stupid assholes!

Remember, at least half of the people who've written Gundam over the years think Char and the Zeon were absolutely right.

Yep that was his big evil plan. It just was not a nuke it was an asteroid.

I really have to wonder why the series even bothers trying to have some sympathetic antagonists when they're all on the man-eating genocidal side.

I mean, at least, I remembered Char's Counter Attack as some sort of desperate revenge ploy or some kind of detente that he was forced to go along with, but then again I'VE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING BUT THE ORIGINAL, THAT MOVIE, AND OTHER UNIVERSES LIKE G AND WHATEVER ELSE WAS ON TOONAMI. But god loving drat. All of Zeon is just stupider nazism at its core.

G is still the best Gundam.

CCA is fine and was a great ending point for UC considering it ends in a literal goddamn miracle as both earth and zeon troops unite to stop the earth being killed.

Unicorn, hacky work that it is and Sunrise itself not giving a gently caress because $$$, pisses all over it and retreads the same old loving ground for no gain whatsoever.

it's not that they can't leave; it's that they're so enraptured by the movie that they don't want to

it's like the island of the lotus eaters for a more technological age

I think I like the way SG-1 did it better.

Everyone gets so bored after a while, they seize on watching each other's traumatic memories over and over.

The Marines episode of ATHF. It's like they keep skipping it in the queue or something.

Did they pull that episode for some reason?

Bandai owned the rights to season 1 before they went under, then Funimation rescued it a couple years ago, and I guess Toonami just got to getting the broadcast rights back. Meanwhile, Adult Swim has had broadcast rights for season 2 in perpetuity as a main producer of the season.
