just finished zeta gundam. that got kinda dark at the end, huh. not that the rest of the show was all fun times or w/e but they stepped it up a notch for the finale I do not understand newtype powers at all. better communication equals using the souls of the dead to power giant robots and stealing peoples' souls? well if you say so

They had a whole OVA to tell any story they wanted, and the final episode of Try was really fun and good. They could have done more of that(a big FFA between all the cast, or a minor 1v1 spinoff tournament where they all fight each other) and it would have been a really great OVA. Instead, someone bleated "people like GBF, let's just do the final episode of GBF again" and then threw in a return to the bad old days of everyone becoming power up parts for Sekai for good measure.

The second season scaling back heavily in skill was always a weird idea, especially when they try to build up the antagonists as big shots in the gbf world.

Manatee Cannon posted:ok I watched char's counterattack Char and Amuro were listed as just "MiA" after Char's Counterattack, as a just-in-case button on Sunrise's part. (Spoilers for Unicorn here, but not really significant ones) But given the ghosts of Amuro, Char, and IIRC Lalah are all present in the final ep of Unicorn ushering Full Frontal off, they're pretty officially dead at this point.

Yeah, they just all came off as egotistical little shits in the end. If only because we've all seen the kind of players that regularly reach the World Tournament solo and they would quite likely gently caress them all up for a morning warmup. Nevermind the fact they actually had personalities. And actually enjoyed playing Gunpla Battle. Don't forget the finals turning into "Nuh-UH, I am going to be the one that fights Sekai" right off the bat, instead of any interest in their actual opponent.

Manatee Cannon posted:ok I watched char's counterattack The ending of CCA is open to a lot of interpretation, but basically the unified wills of everyone trying to save the Earth resonated in the Nu Gundam's psycoframe(mysterious material that can channel newtype powers) and allowed Amuro to perform the impossible miracle of pushing Axis back and saving the world, creating the glowing aurora in the process that became a pivotal moment in the UC timeline known as the Axis Shock. The magic t-block is the original psycoframe sample that Chan was working with in the process of working on the Nu Gundam. As for whether or not they died, it's deliberately left open to speculation(and directly addressed in Unicorn later), but Char and Amuro never appear as living people again in the UC timeline so regardless of what happened they are for all intents and purposes dead. Bright's son is a direct product of Bright being a lovely, awful, neglectful father. He's exactly like Quess in that he's a child who was completely abandoned and ignored by people who should have been there to help and guide them and thus ended up lashing out at the world in an awful manner because of it.

So does G Gundam have the weakest ending credits sequence of any Gundam show? The endlessly zooming in on Rain's distorted earring is so boring.

The second g gundam ed is the same thing but a different image. It's infinitely more hilarious due to the image used and the song going with it.

Rhythm Emotion is the best Gundam OP of all time. I saw a poll at ANN and it finished third or fourth behind Just Communication and IBO. What a bad poll

I hold a soft spot for 0083's first ed. I'm not looking for a love affair... 0080's ed is just a gut punch though, thanks to the war photographs motif they use.

Rhythm Emotion is definitely one of the best animated Gundam ops. The animation in it is just so clean and it has my bae Relena featured. I love Tsuki no Mayu from Turn A but Yoko Kanno stuff always feels like cheating.

I'm also a huge sucker for a mecha head looking up and then the eyes start glowing, so rhythm emotions owns just for having that bit.

I find the op and ed for 08th MS team to be a little sappy. The opening isn't bad, but it's a bit dull while the ed sucks

I personally don't think Quess' issues are that she was abandoned. Adaneur doesn't seem like a neglectful father, just someone she doesn't respect and views as weak and ineffectual and who she seeks to replace with Amuro and then Char as paternal figures she views as strong and could respect instead.

She's not abandoned in the literal sense; this is shown pretty clearly by her father literally sending the cops to bring her home when she was hanging out with her hippie friends. She's abandoned in an emotional sense because her father doesn't give a poo poo about her feelings or what she thinks; this is shown pretty clearly by her father literally sending the cops to bring her home when she was hanging out with her hippie friends and him not giving a poo poo why she was out there in the first place. I agree that one aspect of her issues is seeking a stronger father figure to look up to, and this isn't even subtle because her father's primary characterization is "spineless appeaser".

I mean, you can have problems with Turn A's story or its mecha design, but if you have problems with its' music I just don't think there's any helping you. Same with 0083's, which are so goddamn eighties action movie that it's kinda painful.

Somewhat of a long shot, but does anyone know where I might be able to purchase this heat hawk guitar? I've only found a single ebay auction from a while ago. Yahoo auctions has nothing, or I'm not entering the correct search term. I have a strong feeling I saw this when I was in Japan a while ago. How could I reach out to someone living there to find, purchase, and ship this to me?
