The most common criticism of this show in Japan isn't the comedy. It's the further focus on Newtype shit.

I sort of took it that way himself, but two things can be true at the same time. Gyunei is a kissless virgin that doesn't understand Quess (thinking an age gap is an issue after her attempts to latch onto both Amuro and Char) and the age gap is a bit weird.
>>
It's a split second scene where Amuro abandons his stuff at hand, causing Gyunei to mistake it for Nu while Amuro strikes from the side.
It's sort of referenced in Hathaway's Flash when Lane is defeated at the end of first film.

Such a good scene. Gyunei was expecting amuro to pull the string on the bazooka to shoot him, but was taken aback that the gun didn't fire & looked.

Are you watching gundam for the first time? The original series, a spin off? Post your thoughts, theories, or opinions with other people who are watching for the first time.

I just started war in the pocket, the opening and ending is really nice. It's almost soothing or melancholy. The main characters are children but they aren't like the boisterous children from 0079 or zeta. They're more grounded and serious but the lighthearted humor still exists. It's just not over the top. I'm really liking the different vibe. Another thing I miss from more recent series is just how different the characters look. they have different face shapes, noses, ages. Sometimes you forget how much characters in recent series look similar or have no discerning features other than hair.

Finished War in the Pocket the other night, it was just as incredible as everyone says. Gonna put off F91 and watch Stardust Memory now, going in with lower expectations but its charming so far. Mora might be in the running for best gundam waifu.

I downloaded MS, x, WFM, and turn A and starting on MS first. hopefully I like them. MS started out quite interesting. I hope it keeps the interest for me even though it's on the shorter side.

if you end up not liking it then go for the movie version (afterglow of zeon) i didn't like the series but liked the movie.

What was the first mecha you watched that wasn't dubbed in English/Spanish/Italian/French etc? And what year? For me, Godannar in 2006, the Shizuru butt gif where she called Shiba a liar got my 13 year old self wild. If only the show were good lol. I liked Mira the most though.

Considering how willing Toei is to make V cinema slops nowadays, i do hope a Changerion anniversary movie will happen. The story deserves a closure.

Taiwan had a ban on all Japanese products, from toasters to music. So to have a mostly Japanese film was a big no-no. Seems like the MENA region was a beautiful dumping ground for East Asian media. Most of the Taiwan-Toku they've uploaded are sourced from Lebanese VHS tapes.
I got a chance to chat with the uploader, and I have brought up that JP film another anon commented about. But I really need the SEAbros to start doing their own recovery hunts. Apparently a Filipino-English dub of Toei's Watari film was released on Betamax in the Philippines? I'll try to find the archive link I was sent and post later.
But yes Singapore, The Philippines, and Indonesia was similar to Lebanon, huge dumping ground for all manners of stuff. The English dub of that weird Space Streaker movie was from an Indonesian tape.

Rainbowman 25 in the bag!

As much as I love Rainbowman, at the end of the day I work primarily with manga, & being away from it for like 3 months has given me some serious withdrawal, so I am VERY ready to finish Rainbowman's front half & finally get on Gosaku Ota's Great Mazinger!

>>23485854
I don't think there's that much obscure Showa Toku stuffs to be discovered around here, since I only remembered some betamax copies of Sentai and their accompanying, locally made, audio dramas. But then again, I may be too young to remember all of shits published in the late 80's

did dagon/leviathan/behemoth have pilots or were they fully autonomous?

Off the top of my head, the kit that matches that outline the most is the high grade Hi-Mock.

You can also look at the links below, they are catalogues of all the high grade and master grades kits released so far to see a preview of the body shape. It's in order from oldest to newest, so scroll down for newer kits.

It doesn't dwell on it a lot but there's a scene in the show where the rabbits are just hanging out and they talk about having dreams of being part of a family, that someone they can't remember taking care of them when they were little. They don't really mope, angst or cry about it but there is the sense that they're all more than just a little bit lonely. They all are really all they have.

>>23481905
It's much easier to portray acrobatic shenanigans without being vomit inducing or an unreadable mess when there's a clear point of reference. Many space anime forget this fact.
>>
>>23486553
Yeah, even though the animation is great, the space fights in MP also got very unreadable at points. It helps that all the ground combat had great choreography and teamwork to help sell the Rabbits as a team as well.
>>
>>23408412
Despite how "generic" the show is. I think the show's best traits is the characters. They don't have those "started disliking one another until bond are formed in the end" kind of chemistry. But they felt kinda natural. Like when your teachers grouped you and a bunch of unrelated randos together and you all just figuring out how to make this work. Sometimes it's comforting to see a team that just, normal. They bounce each other normally like actual friends.

It was just nice. I don't like the term generic but while the show isn't trying to do anything especially shocking it is focused on doing things right. None of the drama comes from people behaving like retards. Characters actually take time to communicate. It feels genuine because it is genuine. Even the most mysterious cloak and dagger characters realize that the secrets can get in the way sometimes. It's nice. If this was what counted as generic then whole genre would be a lot better.
