This whole kira-kira thing is Minovsky Particles, right? Does it the green particles from Axis Shock are also Minovsky Particles?

I may just be a lotelet here, but before this show, I thought Newtype senses and psycommu systems were ways of circumventing the interference brought about by minovsky particles.
But this show makes it seem like minovsky particles themselves react to Newtype phenomena directly. They even talk about minovsky particle anomolies as if their synonymous with 'zeknovas'. Has it always been that way and I missed it?

Its Enokido directly relating 2 distinct phenomena together when the original entire point was that Minovsky particles ignore newtype brainwaves. But now Minovsky particles are like GN particles and are coincidently intrinsically linked to human consciousness making the universe seem smaller

Newtypes being able to control minovsky particles is a japanese theory going back to the release of zeta.

I don't think so, we saw Newtype interactions in the "kira-kira" in the original as well

Wasn't their original propagation into the earth sphere in UC essentially pollution resulting from the kind of reactors ships used?
Seems like a weird thing to give Newtypes specific dominion over.

I mean I get it with Zeta's ginormo saber, but there's just as many instances of Newtypes just controlling... Well, anything. Not specifically minovsky particles.

This seemed weird to me. I-fields are not exclusively psycommu tech. So making minovsky particle manipulation into a Newtype thing seems kind of arbitrary.

The Zeta and ZZ's jumbo saber, the super powered high mega cannon, the beam barriers? All basic minovsky weaponization.

Even things like the ZZ's telekinesis or pushing back Axis can be explained by things like minovsky propulsion and buoyancy, properties exploited for the minovsky drive and minovsky craft respectively. I mean, even the colony laser block can be explained with just a gigantic beam shield.

ZZ's jumbo sabers are like that regardless.
I also don't really see how Judau blocking bullets on foot is minovsky particles.

Yes, generally Newtypes do their thing in spite of minovsky interference, not specifically USING minovsky interference.
This is actually a significant change because it essentially means standard battleships can now detect when Newtypes are fucking around by tracking abnormal spikes in minovsky density, essentially giving visibility to Newtypes on the battlefield when other pilots would have the element of surprise.

This is a retcon specific to this show. It's frankly one of my few problems with the show as a whole. It's not a good retcon.

This is an interesting (and somewhat workable) theory but I've never seen anyone try to pigeonhole Newtype phenomena into specifically being Minovsky manipulation.
Is this more from the Japanese side of the fandom? Or something specifically for this show?

the minovsky particles never react to newtypes, they only react to the actual portal being opened

Does that explains why the afterburners of V2 Gundam bends like wings, as if Uso subconsciously creates a WoL effect?

beams can just be manipulated technologically with magnetic fields and I-fields, not every instance is a newtype using his mind to mess with it

uso does a lot of never-before seen fuckery that is just merging and recombining beams in odd ways

The exhaust pipes of the V2 can just do that. You can see it when he deflects Katejina's final attack. He doesn't use newtype abilities to do it, he has to physically contort the V2's body in order to make a cape that deflects the beam

Funny you mention that, the Phantom has a shit load of I-fields installed to keep its minovsky drive stabilized to the point it became an oven after a few minutes.

>>23348747
I thought it used it built in beam shields to pull that off.

So why wasn't KIRA KIRA translated in the end? It held no double meaning, wasn't an acronym etc. Just straight up 'sparkling'.

I don't blame the translator for assuming it has greater meaning that simply hadn't revealed itself yet. Specially with how Deux alluded to it, it seemed like it was more than Machu being cute.
But then it just stopped being important. Just like "Mavs". They pay quick lip service to Mavs again when Machu and Nyaan team up but neither final battle actually involves Mav combat. The show creating jargon just for fighting with a partner had no real payoff. It just sounded cool I guess.
