Seriously, what is with all the hilarious character names in Gundam? The characters with relatively normal names are way outnumbered by the ones with absolute gibberish names or bizarre double entendres or both (looking at you Jamitov Hymen).

Have you seen what some people name their kids these days? Imagine how much worse it will be in the future

I just want an RX-78 model that changes wildly in shape and proportion every time I look away from it, preferably without drug use

Anew died and that kinda sucked

My favorite thing about Anew dying is that in S1, Lasse shoots the beam saber about to kill Tieria, and in S2 Tieria shoots the lance about to kill Setsuna, but for Anew? Setsuna just blows her away with no remorse.

X suffers from meandering around for it's first third or so but once they got a fire under their rear end and eventually the cancel notice it starts to pick up as the rush to get the anime done.

Also as I'm currently in the midst of a full gundam watch through with my GF, I am in fact forced to watch AGE. At least we're finally on the Kio arc.

Being able to just watch all the episodes when you want makes AGE not as bad as watching it when it aired and having to wait a week for another poo poo episode at least

It's a shame AGE wound up like it did, it had some cool moments in the first episode, like the Vegan camping the MS exit and Flit shanking a dude with a beam dagger

Not to defend Ages silly story, but I thought they learned right away that living there was killing them but the earth government basically abandoned them to their fate, and it took a long time to build all that crazy poo poo that let them go back

My favorite early post about Kamille summed him up as a kid who would have climbed the nearest tower with a bunch of guns had he not been recruited by the AEUG.

I mean he basically did just that, it was just a very large moving tower with guns already installed

Also doesn't the situation where he gets in the Mk 2 for the first time happen right after, or not long after, that scene? Where he then threatens to step on the space cops?

He also remembered one of the most important rules, don't loving talk to space cops
Kamille is a good kid

For Mikazuki, everything is integrated weaponry.

I liked it when his right manipulator got broken off using it to break the MA's tail blade, then used his remaining manipulator to tear off a piece of armour and then smash through the exposed area with the busted wrist section

because poo poo can just be retconned. CC is weird anyway because it also sucked up every AU, so i don't think the two shows need to particularly align

I always figured CC was the future of real life and the dark history was a collection of Gundam torrents

I'm relatively certain no such conversation exists. Mostly because they just are not very specific about the earlier era at all. But I could certainly be wrong and would be willing to watch some of those early episodes to check. But honestly I'm kind of just hoping someone in the thread with a better memory will jump in and do my homework for me.

Right after Mask gets his squad of dudes he talks about what Kuntala is

I remember reading that the Ahab reactors used in MS and ships not only generate their own gravity but also work as anti-gravity for the cockpit in the MS for dealing with g-forces and the Gundam frames have the cockpit located directly between the 2 reactors to maximize that effect meaning the MS can move in ways that would kill someone in a normal MS

The whole system just seems too wildly impractical for me. I keep waiting for the enemy MS to just get tangled in the wires and snap them in half or something.

IIRC in the SEED manga Mwu uses the gunbarrel wires on the moebius zero to tangle up the providence so Kira can shoot him at least

G Reco was bad because a lot of the mechs I liked never got model kits.

Not a single towasanga faction MS got a model kit which is some serious BS
Also one of my favorite parts in G Reco is when muscle lady exclaims "Aren't they afraid of the gravity!?" during her first re entry
