I can put up with a lot of weird and silly stuff from Victory, but the Einrad really is hilariously out of place and stupid even for Gundam. I think the funniest moment was when one more or less rapidly hula hooping around the V2 really really fast and this was treated as a seriously dangerous moment.

There is no such thing. For suck sake, how many times has Shakti gave herself up to Zanscare now? what, four times? I'm losing count. I don't think you are learning things Shakti.

Droyer posted:Something worth noting about Shakti: She's 11 By eleven most children learn that touching the stove is hot so you shouldn't touch it. And it is pretty clear the plan to try and convince them with good will and living on hope hasn't worked the last three drat times. Also, I am so so tired of this trope showing up in the grueling final five episode stretch. Let the stupid adults kill each other off already. Victory Gundam towards the end is so depressingly draining. Tomino clearly wasn't a happy man in in the early nineties. SeanBeansShako fucked around with this message at 04:18 on Jan 16, 2016 |

I'm willing to work with anything but giant loving space tyres. Gundam monobikes? sure. A Battlespaceship with wheels? fine, okay. Our pilots all under the age of eighteen years old being super space psychic aces. Alright. A man pretending a pair of sunglasses and a silly name is the best disguise gently caress yeah. THE EAST IS BURNING RED being a pretty bad rear end phrase yeah sure. But the giant dumb tyres themselves being a threat outside the Gundam itself no sorry.

Welp, I finished Victory Gundam. Which is an interesting name for it, as at the end of some of the more darker episodes as well as the series you don't have the feelings associated with Victory. Just the feelings you get from surviving something draining, depressing and slightly sad. Actually, kind of a good name for it due to the events. It isn't a bad Gundam when things go right for it, just a shame there is so much needless death. So many characters too, I'd love to get to know them but they get killed off before proper growth happens. Still, the ending isn't a bad one. For all the poo poo Uso puts up with he finally gets to hopefully live out his life peacefully and never fly a Gundam ever again. I'm going to lie down now. Tommorow, I might try F91. Looking forward to getting around to Turn A.

MonsieurChoc posted:The last ride of the Reinforce Jr is probably the best scene in all of Victory Gundam. It's also a complete reversal of the usual Tomino battle of the generations, with the older folk sacrificing themselves for the younger people. Seriously, It was fantastic and I had a feeling before the bitterness this was going to be the theme for Victory. But then the depression took hold on Tomino and we got a lot of needless death and blood instead. But yeah, dwelled on it the morning after and I really really find it odd how they just turned away the amnesiac blinded traumitised woman because her previous self did some nasty things because she fell in half love/was brain washed by a half assed Char clone instead of forgiving her and accepting her into society. It was really just a oddly distant cold moment that spoiled the ending for me. It is really weird considering the children after all this are three times the mature adults a majority of the UC cast in Victory are. Also, still weirded out with what happened with the Halo. Like did they get sent to the same place Amuro and Char are just hanging out? teleported back to Zanscare and made childlike idiots? I'm sad enough with the loss of so many characters I could have liked if we had writing time dedicated to them instead of space crazy bell lady who doesn't know how babby is formed and her bland as hell Admiral boyfriend.

Started F91, yeah it is weird I watched this after Victory I must have mixed them up or something. Next to Unicorn, this attack on this poor colony is just as gut wrenchingly brutal. Animation is lovely, Seabook is a silly name and I find it hilarious the head of the Crossbone faction's ideals consist simply of 18th century Agarian land owners Nobleman views. EDIT: Crossbone soldier formal uniforms win the best looking old timey uniform award, sorry Treize your reign just ended. SeanBeansShako fucked around with this message at 19:06 on Jan 16, 2016 |

I love how he wasn't even allowed a space Gundam death. Nope, your going to die flying out your Gundam instead and leave a messy red streak behind you. Finished F91, It was okay but could have been better had it not been butchered from what was promised. I guess if I care about closure and setting I have to force myself to read the Manga?

They really did, did Star Wars fandom ramp up the pace in the late eighties/early nineties in Japan? But yeah, how light hearted and silly is G-Gundam? I need a break from the pathos, drama and suffering.

Just sit back with some close goony friends, crack open some booze and enjoy the insanity of the dub. Think of it as Gundam satire perhaps. Watching Wing drunk for the first time since I was 13 really was a much better experience.

Stick with ZZ a little longer. Judau was a bit of a wanker at the start and has moments where he does some pretty insane things like choking women in act of I GOT TO FIND MY SISTER rage. He grew on me in the end.
