What's the difference between Full Armor and Heavy Weapon System?
1 reply omitted. Click here to view.
>>
Full armor has heavy armor panels with the sole purpose of defense. HWS has heavy weaponry bolted on, like the chest holding missiles, and the shoulders incindiary explosives, along with of course the shield Dual mega particle cannon. Legs of the HWS are actually extra thrusters, which the HWS desperately needed because of its sheer weight from the weaponry.

Different versions of the same concept
>>
>>23518845
Fucking look at it and google it.
>>
>>23518845
Originally HWS was designed by Izubuchi and FA was designed by someone else, both were at first for illustrations on B-Club magazine in the 1988, and pretty much different takes on the same concept. Then HWS became the official design in the CCV-MSV and FA was pretty much forgotten until Kyoshi Takigawa's redesign brought it back in Master Archive series in 2019, and it explained that FA was kinda like a early plan that lead to the HWS plan and both plan were never produced.

How was Zeta trying to be like the rest of the anime landscape at the time? The best you could argue for is their use of J-pop songs and maybe the 2 love interests for Kamille. Are we really going to be pedantic and use the transforming Mobile suits as a point against it?

>Director Tsurumaki

>In the original plan, I was thinking of Char appearing like a historical figure, like Sakamoto Ryoma. He
would have few lines, and it would feel like watching Sakamoto Ryoma from the present day, and I thought it would be good to depict the parts of the One Year War that weren't depicted in historical fact in a taiga drama-like style. But when it came to having a full-blown drama and thoroughly depicting Char's character, I thought, "That would be quite a heavy burden."

>However, Anno was enthusiastic about the setting in which the original history had been altered, and the world had changed, and found it very interesting. I had said that "the main focus this time is after the war (of the One Year War)," but within the flow of the story, it was necessary to first depict what events had occurred that led to the Universal Century being set in a time unknown to us, so I asked Anno, who had been eager to do so, to write the script for the One Year War part.

>Anno said, "I really want you to play BEYOND THE TIME." I was actually resistant. I love the song too, of course, but I said, "That's Char's Counterattack (Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack)." If the ν (New) Gundam had appeared, I'd understand, but since the original Gundam is in it, I thought, "Maybe it's a little different."

They're starting to blame each other, and they're aware that they've failed.

What on earth is the purpose of having a director? Is Tsurumaki just a figurehead?

Not only is the content itself lame, but the mecha designs are hopelessly lame.

Hasn't she been fighting armed conflicts for all her life? Also she clearly has a type for powerful dangerous men who are kind to her, I think she might even mention it.

>In a recent interview with Zero NiGo, Tsurumaki shared some insights into his “go-with-the-flow” approach when directing Gundam GQuuuuuuX. Apparently, the anime didn’t follow a strict plan during production, and many of the scenes and story elements that ended up in the final version were actually made on the spot, as a way to spice things up.
>“When creating the anime, I just went with the flow. Of course, I did have a clear structure in mind for the whole show, and I wanted to try to follow it while making the anime, but I ended up making one episode at a time – if that makes sense,” Tsurumaki commented. He suggests that, instead of having a comprehensive plan for all 12 episodes, he tackled each episode individually, leaving gaps for new plot developments to happen during the production process itself. “It’s not like there’s no structure at all, but most of the scenes depicted around climactic moments were thought up on the spot, and a lot of them ended up not following the plot we had originally planned out,” he explained.
