I always bring up the episode where Elle hold sup the entire Neo-Zeon army by herself in a MKII while Judeau goes do some plot stuff. It's offscreen, but it happens I swear!

Logicblade posted:Ok... that's a little more reasonable. Too used to my gundam protagonists being in their late teens, I forget that the Victory cast is actually younger. I'm hoping she grows out of it a little, but hey that's why I'm watching. That and because I want to see how messed up this gets. He's still got a long way to go before he unlocks that Ace bonus!

Whenever someone asks who's the best Gundam pilot, I always instantly think of Uso. If only ebcause of how resourceful he often proves to be, like when he punched Chronicle out of his Shokew.

ImpAtom posted:Yeah, Gundam has been having huge problems with kids. AGE, BF and G-Reco were all theoretically aimed at kids. AGE bombed, BF I think largely got Gunota and G-Reco was too Tomino for words. Apparently G-Reco was popular with kids and grandmas back in japan.

I feel for Chronicle. he's just a guy who's sister became Queen of the Space Fanatics and he'S trying his best to help her and make the best of a bad situation, but goddamn is he not up to the task. It's like if some random schlob got stuck in the Char chair.

In Super Robot Wars Alpha Gaiden, Usso is easily one of the best pilots. He's practically untouchable and will hit even the dodgiest enemies.

tsob posted:I think the Gerbera Tetra is probably the closest Gundam gets to a sports mecha, if not mecha in general gets to it. It looks like it was designed by Ferrari - though there is also the actual Ferrari Gundam from, I believe, a G manga fan competition. What about the Recordbreaker?

That's nothing: we almost got Super Robot Wars Alpha back in the days (Dreamcast version), only to be stopped by one company not willing to lend the rights. Just ONE, out of the massive clusterfuck that is the SRW franchise melting pot. You've got three guesses about what company that was, and the first two don't count. .... You're right, it was Harmony Gold!

TNG posted:ZZ's a funny show, since I am convinced Tomino was having a massive troll-y meltdown that he would only exceed in V Gundam. The title Gundam is this massive chuuni pile of guns and sharp angles, but even today does not quite work at 1/100th or 1/144th scale. And not a lot of the other designs with all their gimmicks do that either. You think the Federation is corrupt and bad? In this one they sell out to Neo Zeon and allow them to drop a colony on Dublin! Neo Zeon itself grows out of the far more restrained Axis remnant as an almost super robot evil empire type bad guy organization. The show literally ends with Judau screaming at how the adults ruin everything. It's like he's taking all the aspects he hates about the Franchise(tm) and all the other the things people expect out of it and moves them up to 11. You want more Gundam? I'll give you the loving Gundam-iest Gundam you've ever had! Honestly the serious parts are sillier to me than the episode where Bright has to catch a Chicken or Moon-Moon. Stupid Adults! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SymeWdSey-A

ImpAtom posted:A character dying doesn't mean their life was pointless and Marida's arc influenced both herself and those around her, including her death. A character dying doesn't necessarily mean their story arc was pointless, but it needs to be done in a way that furthers the narrative. In Marida's, she learned to live beyong the horror of her past, learned to finally start making her own decisions and reconciles with her adoptive father figure. She then dies due to another character having randomly become bad. He then feels bad about killing her and joins the good guys. The good guys forgive him, because her ghost tell them too. That's loving garbage. A perfect example of fridging in this day and age. Her entire arc about learning to live is completely eliminated, because they needed RIddhe to feel bad. She could have done nothing in the entire series and it would have had the same impact.

Camille is a man's name!Logicblade posted:Katejina snapped, and the two replacement shrikes got destroyed. R.I.P. Reinforce's old guys as well, at least they got to go out in a dramatic heroic charge and not get completely wasted doing so. Fake Jin turned out to be an alright guy in the end. The Angel Halo is changing into it's final form, and Usso and Chronicle are having their final dramatic fight. And Katejina just killed the last Shrike team member. And... oh god what, Katejina really thinks Usso and Chronicle are fighting for her love, she is completely bent. Weird would be putting it lightly, it's like Victory just keeps trying to top itself with insane women, but I think Faula still barely takes the cake. His name will live on and become a legend.

I'd read/watch a side-story about a squad of Zeon defectors. Then again, if I was writing a side-story, it would be about a bunch of Zanscare defectors, who realized that Queen Maria is just a puppet and Kagatie is a monster so they join with the League Militaire in their super-cool Zanscare MS.

Craptacular! posted:I binged on UC a long time ago, but from what I remember of all the various generals I hated Jamaican the most. Even the people under his command loathe him. There's a pretty huge overlap in between people who long for the good old days of the Empire and Zeon fans in japan.

Kanos posted:I'm so glad that the prevailing opinion is now that ZZ is good because a couple years back the general opinion was that it was poo poo and I thought that was crazy and unjust. This isn't a "I liked ZZ before it was popular" thing, I'm legitimately really happy that other people like the show too because it's one of my favorite UC Gundam productions. My favorite UC series are F91 and Victory. I feel ya.

I was mostly speaking of Chars that are Chars (so Char, Full Frontal and Affranchi, msotly), not all the Char Clones. Cause we were talking about the Char. I really should finish watching that fran-translated audiod rama of Gaia Gear. It was really great. It's just hard to stay focused on audio dramas, I find.

Allarion posted:I always enjoyed that scene since up to that point, everyone had been fighting to avoid casualties, and then all of a sudden Heero drops in outta the sky ready to blow everything up with his beam rifle, no fucks given, and Relena gives him the OK to fire even though she's in the target zone. That's perfect Relena though, she's never given any fucks about ehr personal safety before, whether trying to assassinate Lady Une in broad daylight or making a speech calling out the Romefeller Foundation to their face.
