False: This long running franchise has allowed families to bond with each other across generations.

I can't tell if it is or not, it has some muddy details and warping I's associate with AI but there are also some details the reoccur in other shots like the chimes on the door so there was some attention to detail and expectation people would pay attention to these things.

>>23865143
True to how it played out in real life for most fans.

Given Victory's content matter, it's super awkward to include in full anniversary collabs.
>>
>>23865423
>Victory

>>
>>23865143
From the storytelling perspective of the short, I think this just means the guy missed Victory and F91 because real life and raising the kid, so he only watched them after watching Turn A

to be fair, 0080 is a good lesson for children who think wars are cool because of the weapons
>>
>>23864890
I wish that was me.
>>
>>23864830
This is literally me, I grew up watching Wing, watched everything including all of UC and the 3 compilation movies and the 0080-83, 8th ms Team OVAs, I haven't watched Igloo tho but I'm 38 and have a 3 month old and I can't wait to get him i to Gundam and build gunplay together.

>>23865963
That's true but there are some scenes where the Feddy garrison soldiers get brutally gunned down, I don't think little kids should be exposed to that just yet but that's just me.
>>
>>23866002
I made my nephew watch 0080, who was easily startled by horrific scenes but he was fine.
>>
>>23866006
Out of curiosity, how old was he? I mean, our generation grew up watching violent movies and grew up okay but I dunno.

>>23866006

My toddler Niece ended up grabbing my Blu Ray copy of 0080 off its shelf and was pouting to watch it. She's usually only into Paw Patrol and stuff like that so I expected her to bail on it rather quickly. Ended up watching up until episode 4 with her until my brother came to pick her up. She wasn't really paying attention to the scenes with the kids, but I did notice her looking upset at any of the Federations suits getting blown up. Also she was really focused on any scene with Christina on screen.

For all we know this is in the Build Fighters universe rather than ours. But really I think it's a bit too meta to have a short about appreciating Gundam that includes a series... About appreciating gundam.

>tfw the CG in the 5 minute music video looked better than the 2 hour movie I saw the night before
I don't know if it's just whiplash from seeing Hathaway 2 last night and then this as the next most Gundam thing, but I really wish that the next show had this visual polish when it comes to the CG work. Pretty much all the MS action in Hathaway 2 was either stiff as fuck or impossible to see outside of the final fight with the Xi vs the Alyzeus.
>>
>>23864890
I can't really tell the difference between shitty photobash/filter jobs and ai slop backgrounds.
>>
>>23866574
Nips can't into CG. They should just rotoscope with partial AI help
>>
>>23866574
Hathaway action sucks because the suit designs are garbage
Xi vs Penelope is like watching two overweight guys in 10 layers of jackets and parkas trying to flail at one another angrily and missing every single time
>>
>>23867474
That sounds cool as fuck though.

>MC's wife went to same grade school

this is childhood friend propaganda

>>23874340
A queen of spades is into black men.
A queen of hearts is into white men.
A queen of diamonds is into east asian men.
A queen of clubs is into brown men (such many from the middle east or latin america).
Therefore Garrod must be brown.

I hate to be a cynic but these kind of schmaltzy things just make me roll my eyes. At least when it's so first party. Because I get it. I've lived through my hobbies. I get the same pangs of nostalgia, I understand the value in friendships formed through shared interest. But this isn't a celebration of nostalgia. It's an ad. My hobbies were a core part of my youth but they weren't my youth. There's a difference. And this is just saccharine.
>>
>>23882268
>ad
Yes and? You are literally on a board for mecha and toku which are just ads for toys.
>My hobbies were a core part of my youth but they weren't my youth
No shit it's about gundam in the context of childhood nostalgia, if you want something that celebrates nostalgia in general then check out the hundreds of anime/manga/visual novels that cover the same subject since the nips are obsessed with their childhoods and teenage years.
