You WILL watch the inevitable sequel series / sequel movie / S2.

The only reason I didn't drop GQuuuuuuX was so I could have informed ammunition to use whenever evatards say Tsurumaki and Anno could ever outdo Tomino.

>>280468096
By your actions you've shown yourself a fool. And worse, a self-deluded, self-detrimental one.

>You WILL watch the inevitable sequel series / sequel movie / S2.
Only is it is Zeta tier.

>>280467836 (OP)
Anyone really hating this series as time goes on. The more I think about it the more I don't like it.

>>280468175
The show was nonsensical to me but I had fun shitposting on /a/.

>>280468160
What is mienakutemo at the moment? Their profits? Are they crying because they can't see a single dime in profits? Or is it the never-ever sequel?

>>280468096
>evatards say Tsurumaki and Anno could ever outdo Tomino
I think most evatards already wish Tsurumaki be set on fire, so wasted effort on your part.

They should've gone full yuri route. Shuji was such a shitty character. Although every character was kind of bad.

>>280468175
It was a fun watch in the moment but when you actually think about the plot and the pacing issues that's when it falls apart.

>>280468096
Tomino is aging pretty good honestly. New people are picking up UC gundam and liking it. Hopefully Turn A will pick up steam.

>>280468526
>Shuji was such a shitty character
...and Machu and Nyaan weren't?

I want a retelling that is actually focused on its main characters this time. It clearly feels like the entire project got derailed into the staffs own wish fulfillment.
The show did an 180° once they left the colony. I would've loved the shit out of a slightly melancholic yet hopeful show about three repressed autistic newtype kids trying to find footing in a fucked up world.

>>280468597
He did say every character was bad to be fair.

>>280468597
They were potentially great characters until the show completely cut off their character arc in favour of 0079 wank.

>>280468597
They were. None of the main characters were developed in any way. But Shuji was just off-puttingly bad and a weirdo.

>>280468670
Shuji actively made Machu and Nyaan worse and the ending of him actually loving Machu all along completely destroyed her development. I don't understand why so many people keep drawing fanart of this substanceless relationship. He just became an otomege love interest.

>enjoying the low stakes fight club scenes at the start
>figure it'd be a laid back show of the characters hanging out while fighting for prize money
>turns into newtype jedi jerking off with 5 minute newtype discussions each battle
>they only actually hang out as friends together during the ED and the final 20 seconds of the show

>>280468785
I thought the ending would've been that the Shuji turned out to be an asshole and Machu's and Nyaan's crushes were destroyed. That would've been more interesting.

>>280468799
Low stakes kids hanging out while all three of them don't fit into regular society for different reasons and fighting illegal MS battles as a coping mechanism, all in front of a moody backdrop of a colony that can both be beautiful and run down at the same time would have made for a much better show.

>>280469044
The GQuuuuuux storyline should have been an OVA and we should have gotten a separate 26 EP war drama that met the OVA in the middle. Machu and co didn't need to be in the war drama part.

>>280467836 (OP)
I WILL watch the sequel, you are right.

>>280467836 (OP)
Nope.

In hindsight it seems kinda silly to have so much grounded focus on the people of this alternate timeline universe, like Machu and Nyaan only for the whole thing to exist as the latest in multiverse time loop that only serves just give Lalah and Char fans a happy ending for once.

I did enjoy it but it wasn't what I expected. Also Machu's pichus.

Gundam needs to go back to the proper formula of around 44-52 episodes both GQ and Witch would've benefited greatly

>>280469356
I don't think they can make 50 episode original shows anymore. Only Pokemon can pull it off and it's cheap kids crap.

New Kharashit announced

>>280469509
khara did not endear themselves to me. I'm not sure I will care about this project.

>correction
this is what is missing from gundam kids

>>280469488
I mean they could at least do any IBO and have split 24 episode cours

>>280469096
Honestly IMO just delete the war drama. There was nothing war dramatical about it, it was all just 'look at thing you recognize and clap'.
The more interesting part of it was centered around Nyaan maneuvering around assassination plots and political intrigue while she herself doesn't have any loyalty for any side and just wants to be left alone. But they only gave that half an episode. The staff ruined their own show by being self indulgent Gundam fags.

anyways there is picrel as doujin so i feel like i'm winning the homolust game

>>280469356
We're never going back to that, this is the new norm. Bandai is desperate to appeal to zoom zooms and the only way to do that is make short form content for their low iq adhd brains to consume.

They sold me on an interesting alt history concept and I would buy in for it again but there will always be the fear that the multiverse is just around the corner.

>>280469509
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qidzapjAMVc
The preview looks great, but I fear that they will give this classic magical girl series the Khara Special and ruin it with preachy nonsensical garbage.

For me it's Blueberry Machu

>>280470020
I would rewrite it so that, after stealing the Gundam, Machu ends up on the Sodon and is doted on by Comolin the entire run.

>>280470001
>looks great
i want what you're smoking because it's obviously shit cgi

>>280470106
It's CGI shit and the artstyle is bad. Probably one the ugliest looking trailers I've ever seen.

>>280470106
>CGI? BAD!
It's been decades since every anime has used CGI, anon. It's time to give it up or only watch 70s and prior anime, which isn't a bad option mind you.

>>280470190
CGI is bad. Almost as bad as AI slop.

>>280470271
>Machu is paired with everybody
She's a literally me for the female audience

>>280470190
there is a difference between good and bad cgi as well as purposeful usage of it.
this is awful

>>280470252
Actually AI slop sometimes looks good. CGI in anime never looks good.

>>280467836 (OP)
Just got done with Zeta. Don't know if it's controversial to say, but I felt like the final episode had the same issues as GCucks', just to a lesser degree. Haman's exit from the show (I guess to set up ZZ?) was particularly rushed to shit, but they crammed a lot into a single episode. I did greatly enjoy it, and the note it ends on in particular hits hard, but it still baffles me that I'd feel that way when they had 50 episodes to wrap everything up.

I think Tamaki would like Nyaan, probably better than her own retarded daughter. This should have been explored.

>>280470804
JUST

>>280470807
That boy's got some smooth moves.

>>280469356
No why do we even need Gundam anymore? They clearly can't do anything good with the franchise anymore so just make something new.

>>280470849
Can only hope for the future or in some game appearances

>>280467836 (OP)
No I won't, because it's going to be a rehash of ZZ, and fuck that. I already refused to watch this because it's a rehash of Zeta, and fuck that. I have no interest whatsoever in yet more UC wank. Let it fucking go already.

What if Machu has a spanking fetish? You'd just be giving her what she wants.

>>280471103
You should still spank a girl for punishment even if she likes it thats a rookie mistake not to you just have to do it even harder.

>>280468920
but he was an asshole. Chicks dig assholes.

>>280470481
Having a third faction join the war so late did affect the pacing but it was needed to set up the rest of the UC timeline. I think Haman's appearance was to drive the point that Neo Zeon won the Gryps War. The ending was a bit rush but it had a lot of impact so I'm cool with it. The final battle being so hectic fit.

Doo clones.

>>280468920
That'd have been just as bad for the same reason as what we currently have. Machu has no agency for half of the show up until the very end. Whether she accepts or rejects Shuji has to be out of her own volition. She can't just be a passenger as Shuji turns out to be an ass and leaves her. Just like she should not have been a passenger as Shuji realizes he loved her, actually.
The ending has Machu making the symbol of a choice multiple times, but without any of the substance of having to make a choice. Once when she shoots they psycommu key and once when decides to protect Lalah from Shuji. Neither of those are choices, just the natural result of things. There is no sacrifice she has to make as a result of it and there's no meaningful outcome if she decided against it.

She needed to have the final say at the end at the very least, but she doesn't. She appears to let him go when she says that he loved Lalah, but then she is just dragged along again when Shuji decides he loves her. She doesn't even get to have the agency to confess herself, she is just there to experience Shuji's love.
She even told him the moral of newtypes being strong on their own and not needing protection, so it'd have been a perfect wrap if she herself decided that she didn't need to depend on him for her place in the world like she was struggling with for most of the show, even if she is thankful for him for showing her in. There's no real meaning or thematic significance of Shuji loving her back and it just makes Machu's position weaker.

And don't get me started on Nyaan, she did nothing of relevance and none of her character arcs got resolved.

>>280472324
The only reason she dyes her hair is out of rebellion against her mother.

>>280471953
I think the hectic nature of the final battle definitely works, especially with a good chunk of the named cast dying in quick succession. I still can't believe that Yazan, of all characters, is one of the few to make it out alive.

>>280468785
>substanceless relationship

relationship.

>>280468920
It would have been so predicable.

>>280469809
Funny how some sideshow relationship had more background and focus than the 'romance' between the MCs.

>>280467836 (OP)
That subtitle is wrong. She says Gundam, not GQuuuuuuX. Why did the translator changed that?

>>280468537
It’s interesting how a series that should be impenetrable to Gundam newfags like Gquuuux has actually had the opposite effect. Have seen several people finally jump onto classic UC due to it.

Time to migrate.

>I don't like mecha

Troll image.

Watching Turn A now didn't expect shining finger from G Fighters to be part of kurorekishi

>>280474553
Idk I found them fun lower stakes fights(even though people still died).
I think the fight choreography for this show was top notch and I’d put it near franchise best like Thunderbolt or CCA. The Kikeroga being the standout and stealing every scene it’s in.

>>280475568
One of Turn A's biggest selling point is the ability to project how defined, good and underground your taste in anime is among your bsky/twitter peers. It's the highbrow mecha of choice for people who've graduated from Evangelion and think that UC is too popular for them.

gonna be honest bros if i saw a jk like machu on the street i would definitely stalk her to figure out her schedule and then try to contrive a circumstance to happen where i could save/help her from an incident so i could become her friend and try to work into a relationship from there, she's so fuicking cute bros i wanna cuddle her while she lackadaisically plays on her phone while she kicks her feet up in the air and coom between her thighs and then snuggle her hair

>>280475688
Really? I like it because I think it is a good anime. I don't get what is so high-brow about it, it's message and themes were spelled out clearly. How is it an underground opinion when most people on 4chan who watched it liked it?

Dude I just like Tomino.

>>280467836 (OP)
no

>>280475948
>on 4chan
Who cares? Proper anime discussion switched to Twitter long time ago.

Episode 7 was my favorite, started being mixed on them right around the whorehouse episode/the episode after. Seeing Ghiren's supporters getting Kirakira black holed was pretty cool though. I'm mixed on the last 2-3 episodes. I still had fun with them though.

>>280469356

>>280469850
>Bandai is desperate to appeal to zoom zooms
Nope Bandai will appear to the older fans regardless because they have more money than zoomers. There's a reason why Samurai Warriors sequel and Digimon projects are gearing towards to adults.

>>280475688
Sounds more like you've been following the wrong kind of people instead of real Turn A fans.

Lalah: I've created a universe where Char doesn't get killed by the white gundam.
"Amuro"/The white gundam: THE HELL YOU DID!


I know that's not what really happened, but it was funny to think it looked like it. Like Amuro couldn't stand to see a universe where Char doesn't die.

Also Lalah: I kept giving him these different powerful MS/MA, but he still got killed by the Gundam.

One of the MS is a Zudah. Yeah, he definitely died in that one WAY before he met Amuro.

Gyan has arrived.
For some reason I find this kit more intimidating than the police zaku.

>>280483711
I really wanted that Police Zaku, but couldn't find one. Settled for the GQux as the model I'd get from the show, since it grew on me.

>>280484225
Really? It didn't seem harder to get than the other early GQX releases when I purchased it.

>>280476618
Would have liked at least one more episode of either Machu on Earth or one of her and Nyaan training in parallel before the whole final battle personally.

>>280484492
I haven't bothered with Gunpla before and only really got the itch to towards the end of the series, by which point the Police Zaku had sold out where I was looking.

>>280472687
You really can't call it a romance when the Main characters only interacted like 2 scenes.

hmmm i think that zanscare was the good guy actually

>>280484621
I bought it after the series ended (same time as the Gyan actually but I imported that and got the Zaku locally so they arrived at different times).
If you still want it maybe more have become available.

>>280470001

>>280485827
The creators have given you a miracle where now, more Machu and Comolin will appear. With just 12 episodes they packed so much potential energy into the runtime that an uncountable number of dream worlds have been created by the audience. The torrent of fan activity is one of the primary visible signs of how good the show was. For as long as you can sustain it, you can have as much Machu and Comolin as you want.

The last Gundam series to do that was AGE which was such a failure it permanently changed the course of the franchise, the anime landscape has changed so much that 40+ episode long cours are an impossibility now.

>>280470481
Originally Zeta was actually going to have a different ending, but then Bandai came to Tomino midway during Zeta’s production to pitch a sequel series with a more lighter tone. Tomino during this period wasn’t satisfied with how Zeta was turning out, so he agreed.

It’s why when he got the chance to essentially 'redo' Zeta with the New Translation films, he essentially tried to decanonize ZZ by having Kamille keep his mind intact.

>>280491588
The sequel will show it was actually becoming the Ideon but Shuji didn't have it in him yet.

I'm tired of these where a child with 0 experience is a better mecha pilot than trained professional. Char's movie was insane for that too. Even if you're a newtype you still have a lot of technique to practice and knowledge to learn. The struggle is interesting to learn about the robots and endearing to the character.
Amate doens't even say a throwaway line that she plays simulator games or anything

>>280490783
IBO was successful and had 50 episodes and came out after AGE. The problem is that the anime industry is in such a sorry state that they can't manage the workload a longer series entails. Working conditions/pay in the industry are so bad, and there now being so many new viable alternate ways for artists to make a living, that the studios don't have the workforce to actually make anything longer than 12 episodes despite record profits.

>>280493403
Yes and every time apologists would crawl out of the woodwork to tell you it was a poorly founded criticism borne out of a lack of media comprehension, and that Shuji's character was well-established or some shit. I would know, they said as much to me. Where are these people now?

>>280493860
They're just reminds me of Nono and Lal'C but too obsessed.

>>280493899
I'm almost certain that it was like one Shuujifag who said that. I remember that too. Every other anon who liked this show agreed that Shuuji was a plot device and if they were trying to make him an actual tragic character they failed.

>>280493764
The 0079 content to set up the story was fine but anything 0079 related after EP 10 was bad.

I really wish the showrunners tried to make their own thing. Otaku should not make anime.

>>280493966
Otaku are the only ones making anime currently. Been that way since the late 80s.

>>280493966
The way the interviews read it sounds like the original Tsurumaki script would have been mainly about the three kids but then everyone else got carried away as gunotaku working on an UC show and they kept adding more references and they just ended up with a fanservice show.

>>280494010
He should have put his foot down. If I want to re-live Char's glory days I will just watch 0079 again. He has to live with this garbage with his name on it.

was the 0079 wank overboard?

maybe it's the romancefag in me, but i really loved the show despite it being my first gundam and not getting most of the references
machu's story was really compelling and I'm glad she got a great ending

>>280494048
He's had garbage like FLCL associated with him for 25 years now and he's fine with that, I doubt he cares

>>280494067
Yes. It ruined the show.

>>280494075
I loved Machu but Shuji was a wet fart of a character. He was pretty much the default love interest of an otome game. Even shipping fanart doesn't depict him as anything but "guy who loves Machu unconditionally"

>>280469488
Current Pokemon shits all over Gundam

I will insist that it would have been fine with 12 episode if they cut the Char and Lalah story and just focused on the kids.

>>280494118
bland idealized cardboard love interest, (female):
>why is 2d is so superior bros
>Wife material.
>YOWEEEE ZOWEEE OOOH IMA GONNA NUT IN MY PANTS! SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!!!!!!
bland, idealized cardboard love interest (male):
>:|
>This is awful writing.
>I can't jerk off to this, so it's objectively low quality.

Sounds like you're fine so long as you get to drool all over a fake woman.

>>280494118
>Even shipping fanart doesn't depict him as anything but "guy who loves Machu unconditionally
nah that's not true. nips love drawing him like an embarrassed maiden to contrast with machu's sluttiness

>>280494173
I think that's the general concusses
>person who doesn't know UC
They get confused about why any of this means anything
>person who lives and breaths UC and has done so for decades
They think the pandering was annoying and the entire thing was silly

I'm in the latter camp.

>>280494193
Holy projection anon, I'm female

>>280467836 (OP)
Feels like I just got tricked into watching a shittier version of space patrol luluco.

>>280494202
that's still plain honestly

>>280489051
Only gwitch has yuri pairings
>Even Vim's ex-wives are lesbians and hot for eachother

Oh, no! Shuji-kun…

>>280494325
plainness aside his character clearly worked for the audience they were targeting, I'm still seeing plenty of shipfag art

>>280494392
Completely carried by Machu's massive popularity. He's her accessory. There's barely any solo fanart of him

>>280484860
He reciprocated her feelings in the end, so it IS a romance. She was crazy for him the entire time.

>>280483711
Is it a more popular kit than the Gundams in G-Quacks?

>>280487016
I don't want people like you as 'fans' in the first place.

>>280492238
She's that popular? Why? Her kira-kira addiction is relatable?

>>280494635
>She's that popular?
Well, Suletta was on top 1 too both her and Miorine.

>>280494389
i will never understand women and their obsession with femboys

>>280494635
Machu is just full of personality, has both male and female appeal and her aspect of being a JK at odds with parental expectations is very relatable for asians.

>>280493944
I thought it was just the anti-yuri schizo trying desperately to pretend Shuuji had some redeeming qualities to counter the girls going for each other.
No even a yurifag but teh girls being gay or at least a love triangle would have improved the story immensely rather than both simping for a non-entity and doing stupid shit like stripping down to their underwear in front of him just to lay on his robot.

>>280467836 (OP)
If she wants to go to Shuji, why doesnt she just trigger another Zeknova

>>280494844
Didn't open thumbnail before attaching image, didn't realize what hideous AI slop it was.

>>280494882
she saw nyaan do it and witnessed the destruction it caused
how do you secondaries miss these things?

>>280494892
She also knows there can be a non-lethal mini zeknova in side 6, so just do that?

>>280494882
Machu has very low iq.

>>280494844
nah making them both straight was correct, it was bad enough that wfm pandered so hard to yurifags
just sucks that nyaan couldn't have her own emo boy

>>280494964
No, it makes them both look stupid going gaga over an empty husk.

>>280494844
Nyaan being into Shuji as well really had no purpose in the end. They were just making it a triangle for the sake of it.
She didn't get a resolution with Shuji, didn't get a resolution with Machu also being into Shuji and was perfectly happy being together with Machu in the aftermath as if that's all she needed.
They should've really made Machu the center of the triangle because the Machu >< Nyaan parallels had the most development out of all their character dynamics.

>>280494964
I don't see why not, all gundam shows are mostly straight couples (and gay dudes) so they did the right thing to pander yurifags too.

>>280494964
Machu being unapologetically attracted to men, including Char and Chalia, is one of the few bright parts of the show

>>280495054
lesbianism isn't really something that should be promoted in media
for porn sure, but not in gundam where kids could be watching

>>280489051
Good we don't want more cancerous tourist

>>280494890
Why do you even have ai slop downloaded faggot

>>280495080

>>280495114
>he's pretending homolust hasn't been part of the franchise since the beginning
>"kids could be watching"
Blow it out your ass, faggot. It's not like seeing a girl kiss a girl is going to turn them gay.

>>280495114
Dunno, they seem to like them and still selling.

>>280495152
Mass downloading images from a thread. Never doing that again.

>>280495114
I understand if I see 2 gay dudes but 2 girls are pretty hot together.

>>280495170

promoting that shit for little girls still isn't right

>>280495200
Shh I have to post sulemio's new pic, anon.

>>280495209
Whatever, gayboi.

>>280495192
i agree i like watching lesbian porn
it shouldn't be anything more than a porn genre though

>>280494931
she doesn't know how to do it

>>280495233
well she doesn't know how to do giganuke zekky either

>>280495080
Machu with Char and/or Challia is much more superior as a character dynamic. It has been spawning much better fanart than Shuji too.

>>280495226
built for rape correction and marriage

>>280495228
Just let the ladies having fun together, you're just making yourself pathetic.

>>280495251
At least Chalia and Char had the decency to have personalities.

>>280495260
And they will marry again in Alaska...

Oh yeah, totally. I definitely believe you're not a yuritard.

>>280494635
>Is it a more popular kit than the Gundams in G-Quacks?
Yeah... no... maybe?
If you sort by best sellers on the Bandai storefront on Amazon it considers it the best seller out of the GquuuuuuX kits but if you look at how many units sold this month the QuX (by a large margin), Akkai Gundam, and Police Zaku have it beat with Shiiko's Gelgoog being tied with it.

>>280495316
Didn't know it's more expensive than MCs

>>280495298
>random WFM slander

>>280495331
It's probably the aftermarket price.

>>280495332
it was dogshit, if it weren't for the fact that i was watching it the same time as zeta and loving zeta i would've probably dropped gundam

>>280495412
okay, what's next in your pitiful journey in this franchise?

>>280495375
>>280495331
It's probably because it's lance and shield are fucking huge and together are almost a kit in their own right.

>>280495249
exactly

>>280495412
When did wfm become UC?

>>280490830
Just checked out the ending to the third movie, out of curiosity. It's nice they gave Kamille a happier ending, but Zeta's ending is definitely superior. Also, it was surreal to hear a fucking Gackt song in a Gundam product.

>>280495462
i like how the lance has balls around it

>>280495444
Stardust memory then either victory or ibo
>>280495521
i was starting gundam the same time wfm was airing so i decided to watch it weekly to not get spoiled

>>280495572
I love how you choose all the bad to worst choices

>>280495462
Speaking of fucking huge I’m curious when they’ll finally attempt a Kikeroga kit. Imo it was the absolute star of the show in every scene it was in.

>>280469509
>Moyoco Anno
Oh is this an adaption of one of his wife's manga? well okay this might actually be good then, he couldn't fuck this up surely

>>280495532
The lore justification is probably that they store fuel for the thrusters and, I'm quoting the manual here, "three railguns built into it's tip".

>>280495584
i'm following the release order, ibo is early because i read that it's standalone and i want to try one of the newer ones.

>>280495298
Based zeta enjoyer

>>280495607
It's been announced already but just teased. No promo pic

I just got to the part Machu gets arrested and I'm not understanding anything of this show.

>>280495298
>not even recap movies skip shit like this,
Because F91 was suppose to be a full series.

My Gundam OTP is het and it sucks.

>>280468096

YES I FUCKING WILL. FUCK YOU.

>people who watched Witch can't stop comparing it to Utena
>Yoji Enokido writes GQuuuuuuX

>>280496386
>Utena and Gqux
What is there to compare?

>>280496605
I have never watched Utena, but the guy who wrote GQuX wrote scripts for Utena. He worked on both shows.

>>280496697
Well, there's none so...

Exabe x Nyaan is so funny, even the fanartists agree that writing them any close than this is out of character.

>>280496750
Okay. Cool. Glad I had this excellent conversation with an amazing wit. Maybe if you actually spoke and understood English you would be able to type more than five words at a time.

I am so fucking tired of ESLs.

Does Xi Jinping just not allow y'all to talk about Gundam in your own country is that what is happening? Like what the fuck is going on that half this thread is English at a third grade level?

>>280491811
new animated sequences are nice and they contributed in inspiring anno to consider making rebuilds, so it's not all bad.
>inb4 rebuilds are shit.

>>280497131
Rebuilds are retarded

>>280495298
Nah F91 is great. It gets better on rewatch, it's fast paced but hits all the beats right to give a condensed 2 hour Gundam experience.

>>280490855
Sorry having good taste bwo

>>280497281
Is this a parody of a meme

>>280495298
Stand up to the victory, now.
Give it a few episodes, the order of events are mixed up due to executive meddling.

>>280495572
Stardust memory is good and sets Zeta up pretty good. Victory is an experience if you buy in.

>>280495804
Machu and Nyaan need a spanking is the major theme

>>280497836
Any reason in particular? I'm into spanking and all I just don't understand if this is some sort of GQUUUX meme or something that happens in the plot

>>280496386
>Enokido supposedly wrote Utena
>Utena is pretty good
>Everything else he has written is rancid shit
Really makes you think.

I am so fucking tired of Lalah Sune. I am so tired of a non-character who only showed up for four episodes monopolizing the entire Universal Century timeline.

>>280497898
They are brats. Once you finish the show you’ll find lots of Machu spanking art

A pretty important conversation between 4 vaginas and Amuro was about her in Zeta.

>>280492238
Why is a cat-pig or something ranked that high?

>>280467836 (OP)
Just watched this with my wife, it felt too rushed and the ending was like something Hideaki Ano would write. It was a fun time until the end.

>>280498554
Not to mention she is Char Aznable's entire character motivation, but because they don't mention her in 0083 she isn't actually important I guess. This place is so fucking actually stupid anymore.

>>280498721
Where do you fucking normies come from and can you fuck off back there?

>>280498750
>normies
Apply yourself

>>280498763
I'm sorry where do you think we are? Facebook or some shit?

>>280498724
Being important and a central point of Char’s character is not the same thing as monopolizing. Monopolizing implies the majority of UC is about her which is simply not true.

>>280498811
You sure know Facebook.

>>280467836 (OP)
Hopefully this disaster of a series will lead to future entries having actual male MC and a story that’s actually about mechas and war rather than ‘you fucked with my man hoe >:(‘ Eastenders garbage

>>280497456
Yeah (look a little closer at the bottom right)

>>280494067
No, it was an integral part of the theme and messaging that was directly commenting on the history of the franchise and the future for the fanbase. They even wheeled out all the grandpas and grandmas to beg people to think of new, positive things instead of obsessing over that time he killed her and that one time he threw a rock at Earth. Have you seen the future? Maybe now he's a spiritual person with a truly cosmic perspective who doesn't want to throw rocks at Earth. All of those dreams are possible too, but only if the current generation leaves everything established behind and suffers to create them.

>>280467836 (OP)
Yeah I guess

>>280467836 (OP)
Yes, and Shuuji will be the MC as the fans want. This is like Yuta from Gridman whom we knew nothing about suddenly became the MC

>>280500774
You're bullshitting
If they wanted people to look at 'new thing' they would have made the show about new things.
They made the show about old things because they are old farts who want to see old thing.

>>280501117
>Shuji will be MC
He's already MC since from the beginning

>>280501298
You can't just say things that are demonstrably untrue on the internet.

>>280501298
He is the core of the story and MC in soul. He needs to be MC in terms of screentime

>>280501355
>>280501374
He's the love interest, that makes him the main character too.

>>280501422
It doesn't

>>280501374
>>280501422
Machu, Nyaan and Challia are the main characters.

>>280501146
It's both an anniversary celebration that highlights the key characters and events that made the franchise a national mythology as well as a demonstration of what a gundam for the next generation can be. This isn't something it depicts without tension, most obvious in things like Machu's inability to reach an understanding with her mom. That's why she says she's getting stronger with each rotation of the drill and chops the head of the franchise icon off.

>>280501479
That's how it is.
>>280501504
Ehh Challia is the main character too because he's like captain to them

>>280498750
They seem to revel in making this place normalfagged up. They want more of their kind to come.

>>280501117
Machu gods. we are the most popular female main character of the year

>>280494635
Gundam characters tend to top the Animage lists

>>280467836 (OP)
this would've been 100x better if they didn't acknowledge the multiverse bullshit

>>280504579
and also if shuuji didn't exist at all. faggot ruined this show and the MCs were horny for him for literally no reason

>>280504616
They showed you exactly why Machu is horny for him, shoujo-vision filter and all. You're just a tourist who hates anime who was determined to hate this from the start lol

>>280504748
>Shoujo
What a pity representation

>>280504748
i was one of the few (apparently) people on /m/ who enjoyed this show, retard.
that doesn't mean it was perfect

>>280504748
I take it you're the delusional Shuji-dickrider that was mentioned earlier

>>280504916
No I'm just not a retard addicted to shitposting like you losers. He's a weak character but saying he ruined anything or that the "MCs were horny for him for literally no reason" is just being dumb. Nyaan was never horny for him and Machu is explicitly shown to be physically attracted to him from the start. If you can't get basic facts like that right then obviously your opinion is utterly worthless.

>>280504748
They've had "sparkles and bubbles" on for meeting Nyaan too. Doesn't mean anything.

>>280506171
Of course it means something, and exactly what I said it means, because otherwise it wouldn't have been put in. They go to great lengths to show Machu's crush on Shuuji ranging from her looking at him lewdly to talking about him nonstop with Nyaan. There's no real mystery or debate about these sorts of basic facts about the show.

>>280504748
I like Gqux and I love Machu and Nyaan.
Shuji made both of them worse and they both didn't have a satisfying character arc because of him. The Shuji obsession took precedence over any of their other personal conflicts and initially it did seem like he was being presented as a coping mechanism for them over their actual needs that needed to be resolved. But then the show just ruins all of that setup by just making him love Machu back. And Nyaan is just forgotten and never resolves anything about herself.

>>280507187
>initially it did seem like he was being presented as a coping mechanism for them over their actual needs that needed to be resolved
No it didn't lol
You just invented weird expectations for the show and got triggered because it did something else and you're too stubborn to move on

>>280507187
>And Nyaan is just forgotten and never resolves anything about herself.
They conclude her arc with a literal smoking gun and idiots still can't see it

>>280493472
How much for a 3P on the beach?

>>280507496
>there's no kirakira without Shuji!!!
>berserk purple eyes, losing control and ominous sound effect
Oh gee I wonder what this show was implying with this.

>>280507739
Not whatever retarded thing you think it implies lol
She went out of control because of her fragile emotional state, that's it.

>>280507548
>conclude
That's not what that word means.
Nothing was concluded with that. It was the beginning of another inner turmoil for her. Not a conclusion of one.

>>280508117
Of course it was the conclusion, she fired the gun she'd been given. They made this stuff really clear. She rejected Kycilia's ideals and chose to protect her friend.

>>280508197
Kycillia's ideals were never a relevant point of contention for her. They literally introduced that shit the previous episode. It's not that significant in her overarching character arc to be conclusion to it.

>>280508402
Keep churning out the lame excuses to move the goalposts lol
Nyaan's characterization is built up episode by episode so of course part of it is going to be content from the previous episode. Kycilia's ideal was nothing more than the codified form of what Miguel calls a diablo, which is just the same debate about killing that Challia and Machu are having starting in episode 4 and that leads to Nyaan's kills in episode 5. The entire thing is cohesive and coherent from start to finish.

>>280504616
>MCs were horny for him for literally no reason
He is HOT! You don't need anything else.

>>280507187
>And Nyaan is just forgotten and never resolves anything about herself
Nyaan just exists. Literally NO DIGNITY

>>280508622
He was HOT, MYSTERIOUS and STRANGE!
shuji had the trifecta

>>280508564
>Kycilia's ideal was nothing more than the codified form of what Miguel calls a diablo
Kycilia's ideals are nothing like what this show thinks they are.

>>280509000
Kycilia's ideals are whatever the show says they are

>>280497281
sorry. i understand the ship but it disgusts me. I think if the show made more of en effort to give him more plot relevance i would like it.
The problem is that the show didn't show /anything/ in regards to ships. they try to sell all these relationships but none of them are good

>>280508564
Again, none of these are Nyaan's inner conflicts. She didn't give a shit about diablo and whatnot. That's just another role the old generation forced on her. The newtypes killing or not are Kycillia and Challia's goals. Nyaan shooting Kycillia is a failure for Kycillia's character. It didn't conclude anything for Nyaan because she just retreats into herself afterwards instead of learning anything from it. She's even more conflicted after the fact.

Things happening to Nyaan without her introspecting on them is not a character arc. Nyaan's arcs are finding a place to belong to, and finding freedom in the form of power. The latter point is completely dropped. She never finds out what freedom means for herself nor does she even look for it, nor does she even think about her usage of violence to reach it.
The former part is touched upon in that the place she wants to belong to is with Machu and Shuji, but she never considers why. It just happens at the end when Machu drags her back. What Machu means to her, what Shuji means to her, why specifically she wants to be with them, why being at Kycillia's side didn't fulfill her even though she liked her, how she deals with the regret of leaving the others behind. Her thoughts about Shuji are even completely sweeped under the rug because she doesn't even get to have a conclusion with him. A character arc is the character developing and changing and/or becoming more aware of themselves and others and being able to make meaningful decision with what they've learned. Nyaan didn't get to have any of it. She was just there along for the ride.

>>280509379
>She didn't give a shit about diablo
Hmm I wonder if there's a line she says to Xavier that contradicts this dumb assertion.

Not even going to read the rest of your post, you're too retarded to have opinions

>>280509469
Yeah the line she delivers completely nonchalantly as if she didn't care.

>>280509588
Except we know she cares because the line exists. The entire point of that line is demonstrating that she's fallen into the trap of thinking of herself that way.

>>280509666
You can't even read the scene correctly. They talk more about the dinner she had and her making food for others than her being a diablo. Being diablo is on the same level as going to uni for her. A means to an end so she can have a place to belong to.

>>280509769
>You can't even read the scene correctly
That's rich coming from a retard like you. You tourists whine about how the show should be two or three times longer because you're too dumb to understand even half of what's happening on screen lol

That scene with Xavier is meant to showcase how Nyaan's mental state has degraded. He tries to reach out to her as a human and she rebuffs him to retreat into her isolated obsession while referring to herself using the term that was established to represent the bad end for her development. It's crystal clear and yet there are a bunch of braindead pieces of shit who can't even understand cartoons for teenagers that tell you exactly what is happening and how to interpret it.

>>280467836 (OP)
I demand a movie with a double date. Nyaan can be the butler

>>280509900
>established to represent the bad end for her development
It's not bad end for her. It's part of her person even if oldtypes consider it bad. Even Machu acknowledges it as such in their kirakira in the final episode. Her swinging around other Gundams by their heads is seen by others as evil, but Machu and Shuji encourage it as her style. Diablo is a label that others, specifically Miguel, shove her into a box of. She's dismissive of Xavier in that line because he doesn't understand her.

She never mentions the diablo again. When she shoots Kycillia, her first appearance after the fact is her lamenting that she lost her place to belong to. Being diablo or not doesn't cross her mind because it was meaningless to her.

She was a victim of the show being overstuffed. Not enough time was given to a real resolution to her character, so you get a few blink-and-you'll-miss-it lines towards the end, at best, which isn't very satisfying.

>It's not bad end for her. It's part of her person
Machu directly questions what the fuck she's doing and this causes Nyaan to snap out of it, following her feeling of disgust to focus on her own goal and culminating in rejecting Kycilia by shooting her with the gun given to her when she got the ideals speech that tells her to suck it up and kill until she has what she wants. Machu does not acknowledge her killing, she rejects Nyaan's interpretation of her actions as having abandoned them. When Nyaan appears in the finale she asserts that she doesn't want Machu and Shuuji to fight, showing that she's lost the place she could have had if she became a callous killer.

You're really bad at this nitpicking thing, every bit of bullshit you come up with is directly addressed by the show itself lol

Funny how you don't choke on your own dick, considering how deep you suck it.

>culminating in rejecting Kycilia by shooting her
Except there's no choice being made. Nyaan doesn't have a single thought in her head when she does it. Not even an emotional choice between different circles of belonging. She refuses to make a choice and runs away.

She pulled the trigger. You can be a disingenuous cunt as much as you want but the intent of the show is laughably clear so I'm just going to keep calling you a retarded piece of shit for this contrarianism.

>>280504616
Imagine seething about a character that's just female equivalent of a sidelined waifu. Get some meds faggot.

>>280510720
Nyaan literally has the glowy diablo eyes after Kycillia aims at her. The meaning of the scene is that even Kycillia does not truly understand Nyaan, the meaning of her being diablo and how she has survived thanks to it. Not that Nyaan chose not to be one.

>>280511367
>Not that Nyaan chose not to be one.
She explicitly chooses not to be one in that scene. She flees instead of killing Kycilia. Diablos are newtypes who kill, Nyaan wants the killing to stop. That's why she shoots Kycilia to stop her from killing Machu, but without the intention to shoot to kill.

It's really tiresome that you choose to be a retarded contrarian for months instead of just admitting you're a dumb piece of shit, but I guess you can't help your mental illness

The show had no interest in its original characters and only wanted to sell new toys and old character merch.

>She explicitly chooses not to be one in that scene.
She runs away in fear, not because she chose anything.

Like really, if you want to see a character making a decision as a result of events that happened to her and around her, look no further than Suletta. She chose to make the last battle a rescue operation instead of a combat one. Resolved to preserve her belief that Gundam is a tool that helps people. Had her convictions challenged, shattered and re-solidified.

Stripping the show of the various OCs would require a greater rework than stripping it of the UC wank. That's enough of an idicator to me that it clearly had an interest in the new cast.

>>280511793
Nyaan chose to shoot Kycilia to protect Machu and this is the conclusion of her character arc as denoted by obvious setups being paid off such as using the gun that Kycilia gave her. You can bullshit all you want and even toss bait by comparing to WFM but it's never going to be convincing because you're a retarded piece of shit who sucks at nitpicking due to your deficient mind.
