Meant "This right here is the beef to the taco of my disgust with how WfM ended".

Sounds like something lesbians would like.
>>
>>23905926
Was the writer trying to troll Tomino or something?
>>
Genuinsly all they had to do was put her in prison like Shaddiq and that would have solved the problem. Just replace that ending scene with Suletta, Miorine, and Eri's data ghost visting her in prison.
>>
>>23906002

As a continuation of what I said in >>23905977 (spelling error aside), same. Heck, just having a guard by the wheelchair-bound Elnora in the ending we got doesn't change anything.
>>
>>23905996
Tomino's the same person who created characters such as Yazan, Katejina, Guin and Mask.
>>
>>23905926
That’s not what happened tho
>>
>>23906096
(it is)
>>
>>23905926
>does evil experiments on her own baby child
>gets her killed
She didn't. She put Eri in the Aerial to save her from dying of natural causes.
>>
>>23905926
>starts a war
Also not her. She blew up the stash of Lfriths outside the city. Then everyone just started shooting each other rather than investigating.
>>
>>23905926
She didn’t get Eri killed
She also didn’t start a war, technically by targeting SAL’s bunker of Ochs Earth tech she did prevent a much bloodier conflict that could’ve happened if those mass produced Lfriths got distributed
She pretty much sits around with her super cancer that seems to be disabling her body more and more, doesn’t seem very happy and her main goal of freeing Eri isn’t accomplished
She’s basically like Katejina ending wise
>>
>>23905926
Yes rich people tend to get away with a slap on the wrist, especially company execs and such
>>
>>23906035
Katejina ended up blind and buttery, her only "got away" is being mentally fucked. One could argue having no memories of her atrocities is her getting away with it, I suppose.

I feel a lot of complaints about G-witch like OP are from people who either didn't watch it or watched it at x3 speed and didn't pay attention.
>>
>>23905926
That mask is so awful.
>>
>>23906035
Yazan did nothing wrong and katejina got fucked up.
>>
>>23906035
>Yazan
Did nothing wrong
>Katejina
Blind and retarded by the end
>Guin
Gigacucked by Dianna, lost everything and forced into exile and to never get topped by Laura, truly a fate worse than death
>Mask
Mask was a cunt(ala) but he wasn't that bad iirc, just standard war stuff, he wasn't like Mashner, Dorette or Cumpa
>>
>>23906134
I never finished the show. I think I maybe watched three episodes. Is it worth finishing?
>>
>>23906134
I liked the show but so much of the lore/factions/politics are either glossed over or told in supplementary materials or I'm just too dumb and needed explanation videos to appreciate it more.

I wish they kept her this psychopathic terrifying right to the very end, but she softens up and loses so much focus in the last quarter of the show.

Yes

What did you like about it? The characters? The mecha action? The CW Riverdale High School plot?
>>
>>23906191
>I wish they kept her this psychopathic terrifying right to the very end
Well the thing is that she's playing it up so no one catches onto what she really wants.
>>
>>23906192
I will add it to my backlog then.
>>
>>23906193
I initially thought the school premise was stupid but it was okay, they shoehorned the whole medical/mech/tech thing in an acceptable way. From that, I liked the academy mecha duels. It was different but not stupid, if that makes sense.

I really, really like the Calibarn.

As for the characters, I kinda liked the show using the greenhouse scenes to sort of pace and parallel everything. I liked Guel too.

As for the second half I really need to rewatch it because Miorine in the second half moved in ways that flew over a little over my head sometimes.

I do wish there was a bit more time spent explaining the various rich fucks, their families and motivations, the witches (like shit, do more than just seem like you're puppet pullers bene genserrit), so that there was more "satisfaction" when Miorine finally did what she did at the end. I understand that might be just me though.
>>
I think WfM was a great intro show for people to maybe get into Gundam, but a meh show for people who were already fans of the franchise.

Same. The production team were wimps with how many episodes they wanted, which restricted with how much the post-Drone War world worked and more on how Spacian-owned coglomerates worked.
>>
>>23905926
I hate how you're not allowed to dislike WFM for obvious horseshit like this, you just instantly get labeled a yuri rager.
>>
>>23906134
What are you talking about? I watched the show and I didn't notice that OP got anything wrong.
Or is this just a kneejerk
>If you didn't like the show I liked, it means you couldn't have watched it
>>
>>23906233
There's a difference between constructive criticism and just hating the show while loudly announcing you hate it.
>>
>>23906235
OP got a lot wrong.
>>
>>23906236
>constructive criticism
For a mass audience product?
>>
>>23906235
Can you point to the part of the show where Prospera intentionally started a war and killed Eri doing mad scientist experiments?
>>
>>23905926
She didn't do any of those things, not even getting away with it. Most of the blame falls on Delling and he actually did get away with everything, just some public pressure.
>>
the only thing you can really say op got right was her starting a war BUT that war was gonna start anyway, she just inserted herself into it to fulfill her keikaku and arguably caused it to be a less bloody conflict than it would have otherwise been
>>
>>23905926
>gets to the final stage of her plan, about to succeed

If you dropped it that early, definitely not

Why do americans need other shit to get into huge franchises?

Because we are awesome. :DD

A country who doesn't export their culture like China wouldn't get it. :((

What you meant to say was ditch the main work and just follow the spin off instead.

That's just a promo image from a Sunrise tWfM event. It's unrelated to the school AU manga.

Note you can see the tv show's shorts and jacket.

>>23906416
They also had an audio drama about the festival event.

She didn't kill Eri.
Eri coincidentally got sick with the space flu right as soon as she showed her permet tolerance. Personally i think that a cowardly writing choice since it whitewashes the act of turning her into a weapon. It reminds me of how how they decide to pre-emptively "punish" Prospera by her saying "ah actually my legs are broken now" while still standing and walking normally normally.
She actually did kill several of her toddler "repli-child" clones into the children of the coven though (which is literally only ever brought up during El5n getting inside the gundam and that shitty exposition scene where they tell Suletta her own backstory) and anyone who argues otherwise is themselves guilty of not paying attention to the show.
>>
I dunno man I just think the way she got into Miorine's head was hot
>>
>>23906457
not sure anyone is doing prospera apologia except op, who seems to believe the message was she should be forgiven
we can point out that the things she's being criticized for just aren't accurate without it being apologia
>>
>>23906475
Age gap yuri is the only kind of yuri I accept.

What is the meaning of that gesture she's making?
>>
>>23906379
People don't use OL Haman as justification to watch the shows(because the shows don't need any justification beyond themselves). People like OL Haman because they liked the shows to begin with.
