can't believe this western Netflix show is better than everything we got after Unicorn, and unlikes WfM and GQX, it's actually a real Gundam show, not moe yuri trash for non-mecha fans

She's literally going "muh baybee" the whole fucking show just to fuck off and abandon her actual fucking baby to go join nazi remnants. The show's fucking stupid. And there's so many goddamn Gundams running around in the OYW now that there's nothing special about Amuro.

that's still on line with Gundam storylines.
neither WfM nor GQX feel or even look like Gundam shows.

I don't know, maybe because she got fucking traumatized after seeing her husband die, her squad friends die, a fucking 11 years old die in front of her after he saved her life?

This was a masterpiece. I watched the japanese dub and it was great. I hope they make more using the Unreal 5 engine.

Most traumatized people arenโ€™t going to stick with the thing that did it. And they make terrible soldiers so she definitely died screaming when the ZZ crew storm through Africa.

Watching this right now.
All their faces are uncanny valley flat, lacking affect. The characters move lile flopping fish or marionettes. The english dub is also bad, emotionally flat. The lipsync is actually off-mark by up to a second in some places!
There's no intro explaining what is going on for people new to the franchise. By episode 4, the script has gone way off the rails. The whole thing is a bad commercial for Unreal Engine 5, saying it's good at producing still images of incredibly high detail and resolution, but is bad at motion.
I will say it does make the Gundam seem frightening, but the lack of established scale and skill of pilots makes the Gundam seem magically fast and the Zeon pilots comically slow.

hopefully we see more of this, it really felt like a machinima at times but that really isn't so bad in the grand scheme of things. It was a proof of concept production that showed a lot of potential.

Bandai clearly wants to make more gundam shows and sell new kits to people, but I imagine most of their animation team is busy on other projects. I hope they keep exploring with unreal engine 5 until they get it right. It's easy to look at somethings faults but I appreciate how they played with perspectives and were willing to experiment with new shots and angles. We haven't really seen much of that since they went away from hand drawn stuff nearly 30 years ago.

Scenes like the damaged zaku tank that couldn't rotate it's torso and the exposed crew were the kind of shots that you will never see in modern anime. It just costs too much for too little time. They used a lot of birds eye view and worms eye view coupled with POV shots as well. It adds a sense of perspective and size to it all. you just don't see that much in modern gundam.

So I'm of the opinion that she was written to be dumb on purpose, like most zeon remnants she doesn't want to accept the war is over and she lost. So she copes the only way she knows how; blaming someone else

They are neither. The Ggooks RX-78 Gundam is overdesigned trash, Gfred is a TEMU EVA and BBL Braw Bro looks like shit. The Doms looked like washing machines, the Gyans had dog dick lances, the Gelgoog looked like a worse version of the Camouf, and the Guncannons ripped off Coyote Tango from Pacific Rim which was already a derivative of the Guncannon. I will concede that the Zaku MP, The Psyco and Hambrabi were good. And before you even start typing that I must be deepthroating GReq because I criticized Gdooks designs those were also hot fucking garbage and has one of the ugliest forms of the Zaku ever made. Even Doan's Zaku has more appeal.

Pretty much. The problem is just that no show wants to be overt in the fact that Zeon is wrong and the remnants still fighting its war aren't some poor noble soldiers, but a bunch of immature violent idiots desperately carrying on a cause whose only goal was mass genocide and saw them as tools to enable it.

Just once I'd like a Unicorn-ish timeframe character tell a Zeon sympathizer straight up
>Your side killed OVER HALF OF ALL HUMANS THAT EVER LIVED, and their goal in victory was to slaughter most of the rest, at the whims of a psychopath who dressed himself up like a fascist dictator and called for the eradication of all humans on Earth. And most of your kills weren't even Earthnoids, they were your fellow Spacenoids you were allegedly trying to "liberate" by gassing all their colonies and using them homes as makeshift bombs.

Like why the fuck do they just get to keep whining in every new UC show unopposed? Remind somebody what it actually is Zeon DID.

The general design is fine, but by god it easily has the worst OYW gundam head design out there. The face is so goddamn flat, as if they took the chinguard of the Ez8 and threw it under an iron. The Gquuuuuux is a pretty divisive design but at least it gets bonus points for not being the 27th RX-78 variant in the OYW.

Fucker, did you watch the first episode of the original series?
I was saying that, as a show pitched for people unfamiliar with Gundam, a short introductory overdub of 'hey, space colony is invading earth' would have been more effective than dialogue in episode 4 of 6 for people new to the franchise

Yeah it was a weird dynamic where the story and characters were pretty crap (and the human animation was VERY stiff and uncanny for a lot of scenes) but when it was time for battle scenes they really stepped it up imo.
