Char 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.

If 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
>>
>>23771149
What 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.

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.
>>
>>23771318
Scirocco does the same shit. I took him way more seriously than Glemy because his character was consistent.
>>
>>23771328
You 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.

Judau 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.
>>
>>23766970
ZZ 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.

Neither did Glemy with Leina tbdesu

>>23772721
It'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.
>>
>>
>>23772745
But 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.
>>
>>23773198
why?
>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 women
it 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.
>>
>>23773193
You're right, both halves are pretty retarded.
>>
>>23773248
You'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.
>>
>>23773198
Absolutely correct
>>23773248
Have 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.
>>
>>23773254
Emary 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 place
just 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.
>>
>>23773271
Why 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 building
Is this some kind of writing exercise for you? It maybe a debate club assignment? This shit is indefensible, stop it.

I get the impression ZZ is one of the works Tomino cares about the least.
>>
>>23795193
I doubt he doesn't care about ZZ.
He just has no interests in remaking his old works and only wants to work on new stuff.
I remember reading about how he turned down countless reqeusts to remake the 0079.
I'd bet that he could easily make a deal with the sponsors where if he remakes one of his UC gundam, they fund a new work that he wants to do.
It's been proven that remake of UC gundam is a huge money printer through Zeta new translation.
But he is a stubborn ass old geezer and refuses to compromise on his stance and will die of old age before we see anything signficant out of him.
G Reco was a mediocre ass anime, even the movie.

Zeta really goes to shit in the middle, gets better when Haman shows up but she is also a jarring addition so late. She's mentioned earlier but it's weird how she's so connected to Char. You just don't expect it.

When I first watched ZZ I was able to read all the episode names so seeing the final one named warrior once more it made me think Char/Quattro was going to show up and you know, be a warrior once more. I was a little disappointed I had to wait until cca to see him again
>>
I can't say it's my favourite gundam, I still prefer Zeta more but I'm not upset I watched it! I think after the first few episodes it does really get going and has some really fun suits, and awesome character moments! I'm surprised how much I ended up like Judau. A very different character to the last two protags but he helped carry the mood. Also pleasantly surprised how they managed to turn Ple around.

Roux is one of the few actually competent pilots in ZZ, yes

Now that you're a stupid adult, do you still side with Judau or does Bright make more sense?

>>23799226
https://www.gundamunofficial.com/production/zgundam.html
yeah they drew up concept art for most of the white base crew early on in 1984 so it seems like including them was part of the plan
>>
>>23799226
>I wonder if there was originally a plan for Amuro to show up in the show?
ZZ Gundam's production was kind of a mess. Lots of ideas were being thrown around. And Tomino was changing ideas as production continued.
>>
>>23799207
judging by how Leina and Hathaway have been raised, you could argue Judau was a much better parent figure than Bright's ever been. So yeah, Judau was right all along, while Bright will only be remembered for his meme slap that never fixed anything

After going through all the shit he did on White Base and through Zeta, a third goddamn teenage newtype steals a Gundam and fights under his command. He’s just so fucking done with this shit, so done that he’s like “fuck it, Beecha can be the captain of the Nahel Argama and go fight Neo Zeon, I don’t give a shit anymore.”

>>23799830
Bright is the one that goes out of his way to recruit Judau and the Shangri-la kids, despite not showing half the talent Amuro and Kamille did, because Judau reminded him of them. That one is his own fault.
>>
>>23799892
Bright is a newtype and new that Judau was his best chance of getting the hell out of there and getting to see his wife again
>>
>>23799830
>>23799892
As much as he's so tired, on multiple occasions he goes out of his way and puts his neck on the line to defend the kids. It partly felt like Tomino going "adults bad", but I took it that with Bright's experience and intuition, something about these kids inspired genuine hope and confidence in him... but it also makes sense if it's some of that but quite a lot of them just reminding him of Amuro and Kamille.
Absolutely no fucking idea why or how Beecha became captain though. Feels like everyone just let it happen rather than this being anything natural, outside of Beecha wanting to be someone who orders people around
>>
>>23800267
Bright isn't exactly and old man himself. He was 19 when he was in command of the white base. He probably knows exactly how these kids feel so he's in a hard spot when he has to pick a side.

>Absolutely no fucking idea why or how Beecha became captain though
Beecha would have been less detrimental to the Argama crew by sitting on the captain chair rather than piloting a mobile suit, while Judau and Torres were the ones calling the shots anyway. Also, Bright's presence was requested to do the talking with the AEUG brass and get some reinforcements. It's all in the dialogues, why there are still people not getting that is really beyond me
>>
>>23800290
Afaik this didn't really come up in 0079 although I should give it a rewatch, he might feel like a hypocrite of being just another one of the establishment guys if you're rooting for Amuro (rather than understanding that he's a human being in a difficult position), but during Zeta let alone ZZ
>three separate Titans beatdowns
>some of Kamille's objections and tantrums sort of have a point
>your friends are dying let alone your forces getting stretched thin
>the Federation's gradually getting worse and unreasonable
he's definitely more sympathetic to kids being dragged to war, especially Judau being so vexed with the Federation (who jailed them both and left them to die).
Bright doesn't have to be your favourite character, but if you feel no sympathy or fondness for him, you're probably a Titan
>>23800332
Beecha's not an abysmally bad pilot though, probably worse than both of the girls but still.
>while Judau and Torres were the ones calling the shots anyway
But yeah, so far no one really listens to him anyway, or outright tells him what he should be ordering.
>why there are still people not getting that is really beyond me

Tomino has said he made a mistake with ZZ Gundam. He was trying to make ZZ a lighthearted series filled with comedy since Zeta was so depressing. However the feedback he received from Japanese audiences was that he ruined Neo Zeon and they told him to take it more seriously. So he tried to make up for it with Char's Counterattack
>>
>>23809912
The kick in the balls is that they split production to Focus on Chars Counterattack just to make it mid and not properly fleshed out. Chars Counter attack should of been a seperate anime then it would have plenty of time to develope new characters
>>
reminder Judau managed to do a waverider crash without turning into a vegetable in the process
>>
>>23811095
Because he didn't do it against a Newtype.

I finished it as well, I liked it overall but the last three episodes felt very rushed, including stuff that felt like plugs for CCA as well as dialogue and events that would end up repeating in pretty similar ways. As well as stuff that felt like Zeta's final fight and then 0079's ending. Mashymre and Haman didn't deserve this

Knowing Bandai, they would have NOT increased the budget in the other scenarios you mentioned.

I remember reading that Tomino said it was extremely important for him to finish the Amuro VS Char rivalry on a big budget. He want great action scenes with good animation. Tomino felt a TV budget was not enough for aha the envisioned. Thats why he wanted a movie budget.

If he did an anime with extra episodes, it's very likely they would have told Tomino that his budget is reduced. Or to stretch out the CCA budget over many episodes. Thus reducing the quality.
>>
>>23772315
I suppose it would make storage easier, also replacing entire parts of the equipment if they get damaged or need maintenance becomes easier the more modular it is, but let's be honest the real reason for it was always toys

what where these guys doing during cca, and unicorn etc fucking fags bitches
>>
>>23814161
Victory is the only entry I can recall where they treat all the parts as being relatively mass production and replaceable. There's a few times where they have to deal with components being intercepted and having to send out additional top or bottom units.
