>eventually ally themselves with fucking Axis Zeon, completely contradicting their entire original purpose
>get their asses kicked and most of their leaders killed in a three-way war
>the remnants either try to establish their own nation on a Federation-owned asteroid, or fold in with other Zeon remnants
>all of the atrocities they committed over the years teach the Spacenoids that they can never trust the Federation, making Londo Bell's mission dead on arrival and all but ensuring that Char and eventually Full Frontal will succeed in stirring up additional wars years later

Man, Tomino really succeeded beyond his wildest dreams in creating a universally hated faction. Like, even with all of their unjustified actions, the Zeon remnants at least had some sympathetic elements to them. The Titans were just assholes through and through, unsympathetic to the core and cartoonishly evil just for the sake of being evil.

>Londo Bell got outfitted with new high end kit
Not really.

Londo Bell was only allowed to have 4 ships and some Jegans. No Gundams allowed (at least not at first). This is not high end kit. Jegans were barely on par with Geara Dogas
They were severally understaffed.

The Titans had a massive space fleet, 2 asteroid bases, a colony laser, Jaburo, Kilaminjaro Mountain, and forces all over Earth for patrol. And tons of different suits.

>>23802841
Funny how stardust making the Titan uprising some super sekret inside job just ended up being extremely contrived and retarded and retroactively made them lamer.

Feddies beginning to branch off and overreach after OYW felt like a natural evolution. They saw how full retard zeon went in its destruction, they made strong mobile suits and saw just how good newtypes can be. That alone is motivation enough for them to make a subfaction that can push the boundaries of what they're capable of and stave off further spacenoid retardation.

There did not need to be an entirely seperate event that's a shittier copy of what zeon already did (colony drop + blowing up a huge fleet) to justify the Titan's existence.
>>
>>23807531
0083 originally wasn't going to be some sort of secret Titans conspiracy. The original director just wanted a cool action anime inspired by Top Gun. They would chase Zeon remnants who stole Gp02 and get into cool battles. Along the way, tbere was going to be occasional cameos from Zeta Gundam characters like Bask to give fanservice to viewers. Little Easter eggs but nothing more.

Bandai was worried this plot wasn't going to be enough for viewers. So they fired the Director, and hired a new director who promised to add more story depth and character drama to the show. He added the Nina Love Triangle, the Titans conspiracy, and the Cima Delaz betrayal. That's why the 2nd half of the 0083 anime feels so different compared to the 1st half.

I personally would have been fine with the original director's vision.

Gundam's politics also work better when it's not just about little groups of bad guys making everything happen. It's a big part of why Unicorn retconning a big conspiracy into UC from the start is retarded.
Human failures are the enemy of UC and always have been. It's self-interest and indifference leading to terrible things.

Fuck yeah, big fat fucks taken to the next level. I actually had this thought a year or two ago, that in the next AU inspired by 0079, the Guntank should be an impregnable mobile fortress that could shield the Gundam and Guncannon from incoming enemy fire and mount cannons powerful enough to threaten enemy ships, as opposed to just a mobile artillery platform with slightly bigger guns than the Guncannon. Be a tank to mobile suits as a regular tank would be to humans.

Is "Transforming" a theme that's been done before?
Take a non-transforming kit, and turn it into a build that is able to transform into some other mode. Be it a waverider or mobile armor, multiple part general-purpose transformations like ZZ or Victory, a land vehicle like Skells, a seafaring vessel, a mech that hunkers down into a large artillery platform, maybe even one that breaks into weapons for other mechs to use.

I think it'd be fun to see anons bullshit alternate modes out of kits that weren't made to transform
>>
>>23807543
I suggested this a year or two ago, it was dismissed out of hand because nobody's going to have the engineering skill/know-how to build a transforming kit.

I like the show but my main problem with it is that I feel they aren't doing enough to differentiate Bushido and Luminous's worlds from Infinity's. Their universes and societies feel exactly the same outside of the Gavan being different. Oh and that weird salute that kiki and koto do.

So far the episode that does the best job at selling the main concept of the show was the comedy/filler one with the Ant Gavan.

Sure, same as when he's viewing Azu as Izu when Ark posses him, Izu and Azu are the same character, am I right?
>>
>>23807497
You mean the movie where Aruto tells nuIzu that he doesn't want to put her at risk *again*, when the only one that had ever gone through that kind of situation before was the old Izu, essentially treating her as if they were both the same entity? You mean the movie where Izu regains her old memories, fully restoring her just like Aruto wanted? They call her Izu, she acts like Izu, she identifies herself as Izu, and she has Izu's memories by the middle of the movie, the Izu projection even turns into data and goes inside the other one's body.
>>23807499
Aruto never considered Azu to be the same person as Izu, he literally told her to not act friendly with him and that she wasn't his secretary, Izu was. He was fully aware Azu just took on an appearance similar to Izu's in an attempt to convince him into starting a bloodbath, he hated it and didn't fall for it but he still continued down his path of revenge anyways because he was just that mad over Izu's murder at Horobi's hands.

Nemu's an out because of her changeling origins but I still found Minami sus because of how she reacts to seeing bikeman and what her being an agent might imply about actually being Baku's sister, particularly after what we saw of the Catastrom baby dream and the notable lack of their parents ever being brought up.

The thing I never got about the SEED remaster changing Nicol's death is that they don't actually change anything else surrounding it. Kira still reacts the same way as he did when he reflexively killed Nicol, all his dialogue about it is the same. Literally the only thing they changed was the visual.
What's the point of changing the visual but nothing else to back it up? Do you think they would have if they could have?

>>23803014
The changes that are made are minor. Mostly stuff like "phase shift stops all physical attacks" to 'phase shift is resistant to most physical attacks'.

Hardcore fans are hyper obsessed with hard categories and can't deal with grey area. When Seed Freedom came out, they freaked out that nuclear powered Gundams could still shut down and not be able to fight forever. Or that beam shields could be broken. Or that phase shift could be pierced by physical attacks.

They kept demanding that databooks be updated. Fukuda literally responded on social media and said not to take databooks too seriously. That he purposely tells databook writers what they are and aren't allowed to write about.

These two things already happened in Sneed Destiny; have they been freaking out since 2005? Destiny nuke reactor runs can't keep up with the power draw of wings of light; and I am pretty sure high powered beam weapons break through a beam shields a few times and the defending suit had to get out of the way
>>
>>23805151
>Destiny nuke reactor runs can't keep up with the power draw of wings of light
The databook explanation was that Strike Freedom's point blank railgun attack (when Kira caught the AS sword) had damaged Destiny Gundam's reactor. Destiny's phase shift armor stopped major damage, but there was internal damage. Things got knocked out of alignment internally, and needed to be repaired at the Minerva.

Reading this in hindsight of the scandal is fucking funny.

>Furuya-san, are you not good with active women like Beltorchika?
It’s no good, I’m really not good with that type (laughs). For me, the ideal woman in the Gundam series is Chan. Waiting outside the door with your knees in your arms, how noble and cute, isn’t it? I’m not good with women like Beltorchika who step in without thinking about the distance between us.
That’s why when I was working on Zeta, I couldn’t understand Amuro’s state of mind, and I didn’t like Beltorchika because she was too brazen, so I had a lot of regrets. It was a different dilemma than when I played in Gundam, and I was acting with a sense of hesitation. In that sense, it is one of the big bumps in my life as a voice actor.
I think it’s the same with any kind of work, but depending on if you’re satisfied with what you’re doing or if you’re not, the results and sense of accomplishment are completely different. Especially in a job like ours, if you act without convincing yourself, it will become a false performance. In that sense, I have regrets.
Some time later, I was given the opportunity to play the role of Amuro in the movie version of Mobile Suit Z Gundam (hereafter, Zeta: A New Translation), and this time I wanted to play Amuro realistically, with full understanding of his state of mind and the situation he was in. What I did for that was fall in love with Beltorchika.
Why is Amuro attracted to Beltorchika? I thought about that first. After all, men who risk their lives on the battlefield need a supportive foundation. I think it’s their goal to return alive, to a place where you can enjoy life for a short while. Surely, for Amuro back then, Beltorchika was that kind of woman, a necessary existence. That’s why I came to think that he was attracted to her.
>>
>>23807415
Then it’s just a matter of how I feel. There was a meeting party before the dubbing, and I asked Maria Kawamura-san, who plays Beltorchika, “I want to fall in love with her, so can you give me a hug?” (laughs). This allowed me to go into the recording with a good understanding of what I was doing, and in fact, I think my performance was completely different from that of Zeta.
