— How did you approach Machu, Nyaan and Shuji’s characters when writing the script?
Machu is sort of a textbook protagonist, so it went relatively smoothly with her. In the first episode, she’s introduced as a regular girl living her simple, daily life, and then, all of a sudden, she sneaks inside of a Mobile Suit. It might seem like she’s a bit reckless and eccentric… but in my interpretation, the most unique trait of Machu’s personality is that she doesn’t have prejudices.
— She doesn’t have prejudices?
Side 6 is basically a normal, everyday world, somewhat resembling present day Japan. But there’s an area inside the colony where immigrants —both legal and illegal— and refugees live, people who are relatively discriminated against within the colony. Even in a society with such a dark side, Machu doesn’t hold any prejudice towards the refugees and the illegal immigrants there. Whether that’s because she fundamentally lacks the concept of prejudice, or because she simply doesn’t want to acknowledge it, even I am not totally sure.
If a normal girl were to come in contact with a smuggler of illegal Installer Keys like Nyaan, she’d probably report her to the police immediately. But not Machu, she’d just go ask for the “compensation for her broken smartphone” or something. This is to say, Machu basically considers Nyaan to be her equal. In this sense, inside that Side 6, she’s certainly a peculiar girl.

Eternal reminder that in the grand tradition of left wing otaku media, Gqux is a progressive show that causes tourists to seethe and shitpost nonstop

Nyaan, because she's a traumatized refugee whose peak experience of kira kira freedom was the best scene in the show. Shuuji/Gundam was really speaking for the audience in encouraging her not to repress her assertive side, it's terrible seeing all this shit keep happening to her. I generally care about her equally with Machu though; she hooked me from the moment she started monologuing about fake gravity and bashing fash. I'm glad they made her a privileged brat who fucks up the first genuine connections she has.

At least it's entertaining to laugh at all the tourists who expose themselves by complaining about it. Their obsessions with western media culture war shit completely control them.
