>>23766970Happy 40th anniversary.
Happy 40th Anniversary.
LET'S CELEBRATE
>>23766970Just remember that it’s not an anime.
Why couldn't Judau fix her?
>>23768147Because he knew she couldn't be fixed, and wasn't about some creepy hag lusting after him.
>>23768117>it's not an anime>first 25 episodes are filled with anime tier tropes that filtered people>they didn't listenTomino you fucking genius
>>23766970Char's mobile suit quiz?
>>23768147She doesn't want to get fixed, she wants to groom jewdough into her ideal guy.
>>23768735so damn beautiful............
>>23768730But Judau is usually so chill and her ideal guy is a retarded bisexual sociopath.
>>23766970Cheers!
>>23768887>JudeauThat's what his name is spelled?
>>23768429For me desu when puru showed up with the qubeley mk2 was when I had my>oh shit now it's real moment
>>23766970
>>23766970BAZZED
>>23769523ROOOOOOUX
>>23769617>dies a single mother and a virgin
ZZ had a catalogue of banger MS designs.
>>23766970Not even an argument, the best mobile suit design in the entire franchise. Zeta definitely had the best warship design though.
>>23769624>Dreissen>Hamma-Hamma>Doven Wulf>Zaku III>GM IIIZZ had an amazing lineup.
>>23766970>>23768117Guys, I'm starting think ZZ might actually be an anime...
>>23768730>her ideal guyA balding deadbeat with mommy issues?
>>23769779I know. Sounds dreamy, right?
>>23769624
>>23769779>But now it's just... I mean, look at him. He's going bald. He's starting to look like Jean Luc Picard. I mean, you wouldn't have sex with him, would you?>Oh, yeah, I would. >Really?>Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. I would do everything to him. I don't care what he looks like. I would wreck that man.>Well, you are a trouper.
pussy from a girl who is evil
>>23768927for me it was when Leina diedimagine my surprise when she came back, I thought Judau was hallucinating up to that point
>>23766970Did bandai really do nothing for ZZ's 40th?
>>23770455They didn't do anything for Zeta's 40th either.
>>23770455Sort of?
>>23769796>Glemy gets upgraded from being a named mook into the Char substitute just by piloting a red mobile suit once and being blonde
>>23771116Char not being in ZZ upsets me to the point I go crosseyed. The idea of finishing Haman's character arc without Char being involved at all is just absolutely unfulfilling and batshit insane.The whole Glemy being in love with Roux and trying to groom Leina was also fucking weird, and then we are supposed to take him as a serious threat later on just because Tomino got greenlit for a movie. Holy shit.
>>23771127If ZZ ever gets the movie treatment like Zeta did, I'm of the belief you have two options>make him more sympathetic, like actually caring for Puru and Leina and making the rebellion thing from Africa onwards a product of the ghost of Gihren haunting him into taking matters into his own hands regretfully>make him a bastard from the get-go, reframe have his infatuation with Roux as the desire to "conquer" a woman he deems worthy, with Leina being treated more coldly, and the clones established earlier on
>>23771149What side material is hm being Ghiren's bastard and/or clone from?Also, why didn't Haman get a suit upgrade? I understand the Qubeley is perfect, but it seems like a missed opportunity. After it became mass produced you would think she would have upgraded.
>>23771149I love OL Haman so fucking much.
>>23771127>>The whole Glemy being in love with Roux and trying to groom Leina was also fucking weird, and then we are supposed to take him as a serious threat later on just because Tomino got greenlit for a movie. Holy shit.You're supposed to him as a serious threat because he's been shown to be mentally unstable, groom two little girls and is generally a bastard.
>>23771318Scirocco does the same shit. I took him way more seriously than Glemy because his character was consistent.
>>23771328You can clearly see that Glemy becomes less idealistic and more radicalized as ZZ goes by when he actually is forced to experience real battles first hand.
>people who were in the target demographic to watch zz as it aired are now 900 years old
>>23771160What is the general consensus on the Demeter?
>>23771362Best mecha in the franchise.
>>23771563Yet it doesn't have a kit. Weird.
>>23771318The way Glemy treated Leina never came as sexual to me in the same way Judau treated Puru, which was a nice touch but ofc one is gonna treated like a weapon and the other a doll
>>23771362Cool suit, nice mix of baund doc and quebbles
>>23768735>>23769624I never got MS that split apart to transform, it just means delay in transforming and more risk of losing a part and getting stuck in one form.
>>23770640ZZ era Naoyuki Onda art, now he's the chief animation director of Hathaway's Flash.
>>23771822Judau didn't treat Puru sexually. He was nice to her, but refused to treat her like a woman or like his sister. In fact the moment Puru confesses to him he silently rejects her which was kino as fuck.
>>23766970ZZ is great and it annoys me that most people consider Zeta so much better>Kamille loses someone close to him and fights a battle and they wander around and then he loses someone close to him and they wander around and then the Gundam gets stolen (17th time) and then he gets a girl and then he loses someone and then the AEUG wanders around and then...The middle of Zeta felt like I was looping.
>>23772646Neither did Glemy with Leina tbdesu
>>23772721It's a tough argument when the first half of zz is the most retarded shit you'll ever sit through. I love it, but man is it bad. I get they wanted a new cast and tone, but why leave a couple characters like Bright and completely change them? Honestly it would have been better to just kill everyone off.
>>23772793>It's a tough argument when the first half of zz is the most retarded shit you'll ever sit through. Agreed. And Tomino wanted the entire series to have that tone, yikes.
>>23772745But he told her what to wear, how to act, how to talk, refused to leave her alone and was jn charge of her education. Which would be considered overbearing but not entirely weird if he was her father of even Judau, but he isn't.He kidnapped her and did all of this against her will. That's grooming and creepy.
>>23772793>It's a tough argument when the first half of zz is the most retarded shit you'll ever sit through.You're way overstating it. It's noticeable but not that different from the second half.
Bright almost cheating on his wife is one of the most out of character moments ever.
>>23773198why? >he rarely sees Mirai>is away on missions for months>constantly stays on high alert and has risk of dying >manages a crew of insubordinate retards, kids and manchildren>never seemed experienced with womenit really shouldn't be surprising that he got tempted by a blondie that was throwing herself on him, even then he still managed to not go all the way.
>>23773193You're right, both halves are pretty retarded.
>>23773248You're right. Bright Noa being a horny retard is totally in character what the fuck was I thinking. Clearly I misread all those skirt-tsuki doujins my bad.
>>23773198Absolutely correct>>23773248Have you actually seen any of the other series? He endured that in every show he's in and is steadfast and honorable. It's the same with him constantly acting like a moron allowing anyone with a pulse on the bridge, breaking protocol all over the place, doing slap stick shit. It's a completely different character in almost every way but looks. Totally jarring and almost feels like a farce. Kind of like the whole show.
>>23773254Emary was the first person that showed interest in him romantically in such an obvious manner. Also, events of zeta has broken him and made him more docile, he doesn't just hand out corrections like candies anymore. There's also difference in expectations, AEUG is still a military, there is structured hierarchy, whereas Shangri la gang give zero fucks about that, Bright is desperate so he is more tolerant and uses other means to get his way. >constantly acting like a moron allowing anyone with a pulse on the bridge, breaking protocol all over the placejust like in Zeta!slapstick can be a bit jarring but Zeta itself is still quite hilarious show and has very intentional (and unintentional) comedy bits which aren't noticed cause the tone and setting is grimdark and very serious at nearly all times. ZZ isn't perfect and takes some very questionable decisions but it's not entirely alien thing from another planet, the show literally aired next week after Zeta ended and written mostly by same people.
>>23773271Why are you defending this?There is a lot of things to like about ZZ, but they completely messed up the recurring cast. Haman shutting down a Newtype connection with Kamille and then running away crying from Judau was also out of character.Judau might be my least favorite of the protagonists. There is so little going on there compared to Kamille and Amuro. Character writing was not ZZ's strong suit.
>>23773271>Pretzel-logicing to the extreme to excuse terrible writing and world buildingIs this some kind of writing exercise for you? It maybe a debate club assignment? This shit is indefensible, stop it.
>but the ZZ cast is so likeableI don't care. What is likeable to you might not be likeable to me. I like red wine and black coffee. The word likeable means absolutely nothing.
>>23773253Not what he said, retard.
>>23768117It's not even canon.
>>23773787lol bright and mirai
>>23773794Sleggar would never treat her like that.
>>23773798yeah since Mirai's a crap-tier newtype she can't see all the perv ghost antics Sleggar is up to
>>23766970Beecha sucks.
>>23775362Beecha rocks.
>>23771362I want to fuck it
>>23769523>>23769526
>>23777062>BosshiWait, THAT Bosshi?!
>>23768887>>23768891>Judeau>e
>>23779238she doesn't have a giant penis so it must be a different Bosshi
>>23779557Have you compared signatures?
>>23779557I dunno, facial aesthetic looks similar enough.
>>23768887>Judeau smirk.jpg>not Judau coolface.jpgBruh.
>>23771165Got that at a readable resolution?
>>23786541>not destrado making a funny face.jpg
Wha is the appeal of this couple?
>>23786547>>23786542
>>23786547there's always something endearing about a guy fixing his bitch wife
>>23786547The idea of an otherwise stoic and put-together woman falling so head-over-heels for a boy nearly a decade younger than her is funny, endearing, and erotic.
>>23768336These promotional arts made it feel like Mashymre was going to defect at some point to the Argama.
zz is completely batshit from start to finish, and not in a good way.
How is the Döven Wolf considered a mass production suit when it has stats never seen before, surpassing most gundams. They made some pretty good Mk.V slop. Was Zeon planning to eat out of little cans from now on?
>>23787401She actually looks better without the makeup. I suspect dispensing with the schizo hair coloring would be an improvement as well.
>>23787578I agree about the makeup, but I kinda like the hair. Feels very "her".

>>23786547/ss/ is hot and the contrast of>Haman seeing if she can corrupt Judau to her level, validating all her terrible life choices>Judau either not giving a fuck or just pitying her works as an interesting concept for relationship drama, had ZZ spent more time on it
>>23787401Eh ZZ being batshit insane also works in it's favor, never a dull moment (ignoring the fact they should have gotten off Shangri-La 5 episodes too late)
I'm always surprised at how popular a pairing Haman and Judau are.
>>23789281He had way better chemistry with her than Roux, who's kind of a cunt and only slightly mellows down
>>23789245Is pic somehow related or are you just posting off-topic?
>>23789304That is Judau's VA.
>>23789308And who's the other guy?
>>23789295I'd simp for roux too ngl
>>23789308>>23789315Mr. Doblaje, the mexican voice actor of Franky, the latter character Yao used to voice.
