That is a face finally ending a toxic relationship with his father. That's a face doing self care, that's a face that has finally found his lane, is in it, and is flourishing.

They're Federation helmets, based on the US Army M1. It's the other guys who wear not-stahlhelms.

in hindsight it was pretty weird that Al was a Zeon stan and the other students were right to ostracize him. it would be like if a Belgian kid circa 1947 was really into collecting SS badges

zeon always had a certain level of popularity among spacenoids because of how relentlessly the federation hosed them before, during and after the oyw. that's how the endless would-be zeon successor groups ever managed to get anywhere despite borrowing the name and aesthetics of genocidal psychos.

well that, and there had to be something zaku-ish for each successive gundam to fight.

some of the side characters in AUEG you see in zeta are ex-zeon soldiers. In gundam there's really no way to express how lovely everything is outside joining some Zeon splinter group, or selling out and becoming a feddie cop.

so I'm about to start LOGH like y'all were suggesting... and I'm trying to psych myself up because of the sheer number of episodes.

I like the fact that they use classical music throughout -- very appropriate to have Wagner and Beethoven and poo poo in space

Do I understand correctly that it is both extremely violent / gorey AND it has explicit nudity? sometimes at the same time??!

yeah it's an OVA it was never meant to be aired on TV so they went nuts. keep in mind it is a offbeat production from the 80s/90s so I would not call the animation "dynamic" at all

It's been about a decade since I watched it so I could be wrong, but I don't remember any nudity in LOGH. And the gore was mostly from that one clip that's less than a minute long (still a good scene)

I don't really remember any explicit nudity, but there's occasional space battle casualties and stuff. It's pretty tame compared to most other OVAs with any kind of violence in them I think.

I didn’t realize netflix ordered another season of that horrible GITS SAC sequel, loaded up the first episode and almost threw up I lasted like 2 mins

Been enjoying Vinland Saga though

Looking ahead to next season looking forward to Trigun and Ooyukiumi no Kaina, I’ll watch and read anything by Nihei, be nice if Netflix ordered more BLAME! movies instead.
