Re: The Official Gundam: The Witch From Mercury Anime Thread Mk I

The show is so far confirmed to be seperated into two cours with one break in between, so there should be less timetable pressure if they want to put in more action scenes.

Not that it's a guerentee of them being in there or anything since quite a few anime does the one cour break thing these days.

Re: The Official Gundam: The Witch From Mercury Mecha Thread Mk I

I will be very surprised if they do not, given the beams tend to hit the walls a lot. I imagine having your beams hitting all the time at full strength is NOT a good idea. ======= I also notice something about the beams. In the official marketing pictures so far and one gunpla marketing artwork, Aer...

Re: The Official Gundam: The Witch From Mercury Anime Thread Mk I

I rewatched the episode today but with a friend this time and I enjoyed it even more than I did the first time. Episode was tight, nicely paced and didn't waste any time. Good job showing the school environment, setting up the fiancee story and duel culture, while also linking it to the wider politi...

Re: The Official Gundam: The Witch From Mercury Mecha Thread Mk I

About the beam output reduction, re-reading the Novel Suletta actually used that feature to cut open a machine's cockpit at Mercury during a rescue mission she was on when she was younger. She needed to get someone out and reduced her beam saber output to minimize the chances of hurting the person s...

Re: The Official Gundam: The Witch From Mercury Anime Thread Mk I

Was it explained how Miorine was able to activate the Gundam Aerial? Suletta seemed surprised by that Could it be due to her being in the cockpit with Suletta earlier or something else? Suletta gave Miorine her phone earlier at the garden because Miorine offered to help her with something school re...

Re: The Official Gundam: The Witch From Mercury Mecha Thread Mk I

Interesting, I've never seen this before. Is this like a promo / tie-in to sell Robot Damashii? Seeing quad-armed Dynames firing four beam pistols was pretty fun, along with the saber deflection. Yes it's a tie in to promote Metal Build Devise Exia, the Devise being a new equipment set. Metal Build...

Re: The Official Gundam: The Witch From Mercury Mecha Thread Mk I

It almost seems as though the weapons are able to control their beam power (something that was actually alluded to all the way back in the UC series Victory Gundam). This was done in Gundam 00 where they have a "simulation mode" for use in mock battles. Beam is weakened as to not cause da...

Re: The Official Gundam: The Witch From Mercury Anime Thread Mk I

We get to see the development not only of Suletta , but also of the AI that aides in raising her. It also explains where exactly Suletta's new Gundam comes from. If I understand this correctly, the AI that is telling the story is itself Aerial. It certainly explains why Suletta is talking to it at ...

Gundamkitecillection has a headline saying the delay is in North America but the only link they gave was the EN Gundam.Info page which only mentioned simulcast delay in general.

Re: The Official Gundam: The Witch From Mercury Anime Thread Mk I

Agreed with the tone shift in Code Geass being rather jarring (I remember one episode began with a life or death battle in a city, and ended with wacky school hijinks, it kind of killed the momentum the first half of the episode built up so well) Maybe I'm just not remembering the episode well enou...

Re: The Official Gundam: The Witch From Mercury Anime Thread Mk I

I personally suspect the darkness will be toned down in the series at least at the start but I honestly don't mind if it stays this way. Sometimes shows like to start with a strong theme to create a good first impression.

Re: The best thing ever been thrown by a mecha?

At the top of my head, it would be the Longinus Spear I guess?

Can't remember at the moment whether the Kabizashis from Knights of Sidonia manga/anime continueties were ever thrown though I know some have been lost due to drifting too far from ship.

Re: Mass Drivers?

Presumably they build them in space since a lot of them are supposed to be space-use only. The atmosphere-only GN Ships are presumably built within Earth. Ptolemaios 2 is the only ship we see that operates in both space and atmosphere (and sea) , and it can break escape velocity with Trans-Am to go ...

Prologue episode just got officially released by Sunrise on GundamInfo.

I assume there are region restrictions, though not sure what they are. Works for my country though.
