I think Nadesico really captures the 2000's vibe its sometimes goofy sometimes serious, and the ambiance its like Balamb garden but in space, I like it a lot but I cant explain why precisely.
Same with the movie even though you need to play the saturn game to fully get it and I didnt play it

It is exactly ironypoisoned, like MGS, insomuch that the author's didn't have the balls to take themselves seriously on either comedy or drama - neither are bad, but they become cognitive dissonance together when the writers are man children. The "wisdoms" passed around in the show are exactly what'd you expect from someone not moving past becoming bitter and calloused as a kid - that's the limit of what their profoundness would be.

At the time it was common for anime to take more years to be imported to the West. ADV's release wasn't until the early 2000s.
Also probably referring to a vibe lasted from the mid 90s through the mid 2000s that more or less overlaps with the era where visual novels were at their most popular.

Up to episode 17 now.

Okay, so there really was no reason for Gai getting shot? Just a bunch of officers abandoning ship when Nadesico went rogue and Munetake killing a witness out of paranoia?
Was Gai's seiyuu really expensive or something? No, that can't be it, because apparently every single SRW with Nadesico has Gai as a playable unit who never dies.

The point was just that he was this heroic over the top persona wanting an heroic death in combat, after initially being presented as just an idiot, actually is also shown as a good pilot in episode 3, so he could become famous like he dreamed, but "reality" isn't like that and he's just randomly shot and killed due to being in the wrong place at the wrong time. This is meant to contrast with "Joe's" heroic death in Gekiganger they kept talking about early in the show before Gai's own death.

Ace-type pilots getting taking out pathetically while out in the world/not in their mechs and the subsequent fallout is one of those things I tell myself I'd like to see more in but if it ever actually happened would probably piss me off.
Maybe I'm not watching the right things but I can only recall it happening twice - Nadesico here but his character was designed to be everything I hate about older mech shows where the power of yelling makes you stronger so he was a good riddance, and IBO where I indeed gave no shits about the character and I still got pissed that it happened

Yeah, apparently. And there was a video game tie-in that was supposed to be a prequel to the films, but they botched its release and it came out afterwards. It's remarkable how everything to do with Nadesico after the original TV series is a series of comical fuck-ups that doomed the entire series to obscurity within five years. It's almost impressive.
