Does anyone else get the feeling this series is cutting corners? Not just in the animation, but also the world building. Like they could add extra details like ship names but don't? Like when they listed off various federation ships being destroyed, they list five different types but we only saw one type of battleship. It's so low effort.

I think a better analogy would be like shoving a meal into a blender and drinking it like a fucking smoothie, versus just eating it with utensils like a normal person. If you look at the whole meal arrayed in front of you, you can more easily identify and appreciate each individual component and how it's meant to complement the whole, whereas with the smoothie method you only experience what it's like after it's already in your stomach.

Some autist keeps making theads to the tune of "ZETA SUCKS AND YOU'RE STUPID". No context, just saying people suck. It's blatant ragebait and it's refusing to stop, so discussing Zeta Gundam on this site is as hard to do as finding a thread where Duel isn't posting.

Not sure if powered armor or giant robot... What do you think, /m/?

>it doesn't rule out any
what about units explicitly called "power armor" or "powered suits" in their fiction, by characters in the fiction, or by the author, that your definition would say are actually not powered armor and are in fact mechs. landmates, which you've invoked, are an example of this disconnect. are the authors wrong?
>all input will be translated
this is not the point. i've tried repeatedly to be clear, but it seems like you still don't understand (or just won't). it's a dead end if you won't engage with the topic, there is no possible dialogue i can have if you just dismiss the point
>changed your mind then
you have again grossly misunderstood the quoted post. it says my distinction refers to physical inputs, and these non-physical interfaces are outside its scope. the physical interfaces (the way the pilot physically interacts with the unit) are the point, not the software or other potential systems. like above, i have returned to this several times and you seemingly can't or won't respond to the actual argument, and keep bringing up tangential details (that don't actually conflict with what i'm saying). i'm at a loss as to how to get through to you on this

>are the authors wrong?
are you implying they can't be? it wouldn't be the first time, nor the last.
some authors honestly don't/didn't know better (if they cared), we barely have exoskeletons today and they are defined as wearable device
and even if author did know, you could can also imagine some executive forcing whatever name over a superficial resemblance

>i've tried repeatedly to be clear
from my point of view, you've spent more time claiming that than actually explaining or addressing the gaping holes I point in your arguments.
even considering you as honest, right know you are the one who 'dismiss' points as mere 'tangential details' looking for excuse to not answer.

>it says my distinction refers to physical inputs
>these non-physical interfaces are outside its scope.
and again you are no more capable of distinguishing direct/indirect than 'physical/non-physical' interface, especially since the chain-quote included brain-machine-interface which cover pretty much everything.

your criteria would be so far incapable of defining a machine reading the mind of a operator, translating and coordinating actuators to move the machine along the operator limbs, without him flexing any muscle (imagine the operator as a paralyzed patient)

>are you implying they can't be?
just pointing out that what you're insisting is a widespread, common interpretation doesn't align with the actual sources, including the specific example you cited. hard to say you have the mainstream take when it goes against the authors
>you've spent more time claiming that than actually explaining
yes, because the conversation can't progress if you won't reply to what is actually said in my posts. you are arguing against imagined points i didn't make, and can't be persuaded otherwise
>the gaping holes I point in your arguments
>your criteria would be so far incapable of defining a machine reading the mind of a operator
was never trying to define that, in fact i even stipulated this was not something covered by my distinction
something outside the scope of my argument is not a "gaping hole," this is like saying a car is broken because it doesn't fly
sorry anon but i don't have the patience to keep explaining this to a brick wall. you're not going to understand and i just have to accept that

There's a difference between ESPer Newtypes and ideological Newtypes, that's why Tomino said it was versatile term that wasn't so overly specific and limiting. Powerful ESPer Newtypes like Haman and Scirocco can be extremely evil instead of pure, and no amount of understanding can change that. Cyber Newtypes are something horrible born from an attempt to replicate Newtype abilities.

Despite all the characters spouting that Newtypes are the next step in humanity's evolution as part of their personal beliefs, none of the works that showcase UC's future show ESPers being less rare than they were in early UC.

>Victory's criticizes "Marianism". Yeah, she's a Newtype, but the whole cult is never built around the idea of Newtypes, she's treated as some kind of singular saint character
Maria is venerated as a result of her Newtype abilities, however. And despite being a Newtype, she couldn't tell she was being manipulated by Kagatie until it was too late.

Angel Halo is a weapon meant to eradicate everyone on Earth, and it needs a Newtype as its core.

It's always been more nuanced than "being an ESPer = being good and flawless".

Europe is merely defending itself against the US-bound BIG TECH brother.
Yes I know you are thinking of the intent to create digital identity. Create as an option, not enforce, those who want to enforce it would be lobbies from BIG DATA because it would make their business of selling/controlling information much easier. What they seek is the split difference between putting lines to keep business out, and putting lines to keep consumer in.

As much as I like anonymity to be only judged on what I say, it doesn't honestly protect freedom of speech when algorithms shadow-ban you and plutocrat get upvoted by millions of bots in their latest scheme to engineer consent.

>>
>>24065022
You see.
During the first episode... Kamile lies out of his ass, multiple times.
He hates the Titans and sympathizes with the AEUG, yet he pretends he doesn't know what the AEUG even is during interrogatory.
Any slight push would make him go off rails in that situation, he went to that station looking for trouble, he couldn't take it anymore, his parents helping the Titans bully the innoncent into submission all the while neglecting him, even though they didn't even get along with each other was his biggest issue.
So him "sensing" Jerid making light of him was just the staw that broke the camel's back.

Aristocrats and royals who get installed without democracy are typically trained and educated from birth with the intention of them leading the nation in the future, whereas someone elected democratically can just be any joe schmoe retard without a lifetime of dedicated political education and training.
>>
>>24065503
In theory, but in practice democracies are led by pseudo nobility anyway. Joe schmoe stands zero chance of even making it to the ballot, much less actually being elected. The main difference is the concept of noblesse oblige, which while it may not exist in all noble families it sure as fuck doesn't exist in any pseudo noble ones.

Lady Une clearly believes the theory. Anon asked what she meant, I explained what she meant. It's clear she holds an elitist perspective that would expect someone democratically elected to be less educated and inferior.
