Does anyone else kinda hate how absurdly huge mobile suits are? For a series that was originally predicated on being a more grounded style of mecha show, it sure does immediately undermine that with highly impractical design ethic.
>>
>>282815088
no because it's just a story
>>
Focusing more on human drama is not undermined by unrealistic technology existing at all. Stop having autism.

This is why Gundam has always been shit. Fucking retards just clap like seals when they're told to get "hype".

They clearly didn't expect such a high level intellect like yourself to be born into this world.

Drooling retard shill immediately screeches "REEEEE DON'T THINK ABOUT IT!" when confronted with a basic nitpick about a fictional setting.

It was more grounded than mecha shows up to that point, that's just a fact. It was never realistic nor did it ever try to be.
It's not the shows' fault you project your autistic retardations onto it.
>>
>>282815466
Why the fuck are you being so hostile? I never said it should be realistic, I just said that mechs being that big is dumb and impractical. Goddamn you people get real fucking testy when anyone says anything even slightly negative about your shitty toy commercial.

Gundams and other mobile suits are (often) made for 0*G environments. They are human shaped because they have human shaped pilots. In general steering something like you is more intuitive than controlling something not like you. For an example can you imagine steering something bat shaped or octopus shaped or some geometric dodecahedron? I hope the mental exersise prove my point.
>>
>>282815088
Just watch mecha stuff with smaller mechs? Or you insist on gundamslop, just watch late US stuff. Much like tech in real life, mobile suits got smaller with time
>>
>>282815506
Because you're a retard. If you thought for 5 seconds instead of immediately shitposting you'd answet your own question.
>>
>>282815537
That doesn't even approach the actual question that was asked. I swear, anti-intellectual shills are all illiterate as fuck.

>no actual answer, just insults
Not beating the allegations, shill.

They're about 18m to 30m, pretty small for mecha standard.
>>
>>282815664
You need to shield the pilot and the electronics from cosmic radiation. You need hydraulics, multiple thrusters, a power source, ammunition, heat management, oxigen storage or generation , comms equipment and preferably multiple of each because you do not want a single point of failure and loads of other things that take up space. It's normal for them to be large.
>>
>>282815980
Absolutely none of that means that the things have to be the size of a building. If anything, the magic bullshit particles should facilitate smaller sizes. This was the whole premise behind the F-91. Even in-universe it as realized that mobile suits are too fucking big.

>>282815880
Just because it's standard doesn't make it good.
>>
>>282815088
18 meters is standard mecha height, they're big for a "realistic" series but for a grounded series they're fine: Gundam isn't completely realistic

Also they largely operate in space
>>
>>282815088
There are other mecha show with different sizes.

The show is watchable.
Would've been better without the yuri.
