So the Billbine in notable for supplying it's own Aura power, at least that's what the translation seems to imply when it shows up. It's aura cannons appears to work like an E-Cap though since it doesn't have unlimited ammo as seen in a later episode. Nah, the Billbine's definitely still running on...

My hopes aren't high for this one... as I've said on other boards and social media, I'm concerned that it's going to be a tall order to make Zeon soldiers sympathetic and likeable as the story's protagonists. Neither side in the OYW were exactly on the side of the angels, but the Principality of Zeo...

So just how long have expanded Universe been a thing in Anime? I'm not talking about Manga to Anime adaptations, I mean works in print that flesh out a story's universe and mechanics. For starters, we should probably do a better job of defining our terms here... since "Expanded Universe" ...

But alas, that isn't the case; Permet is mostly comes from Moon and is fully under Spacians' control. So yeah, I don't see how they can keep it going either. Yep... if Earth had a monopoly on, or at least a majority of, the permet available in the Sol system they'd have been the ones holding the po...

Seed and 00 had a decent amount of side info, granted they are two of the more popular Gundam AU's. As has been discussed above the more popular the show the more side material becomes available. Even then, if what you're looking at is the official publications it's still exceedingly rare for ANY G...

Nah, this is about normal for a non-UC series these days. The franchise really doesn't put a ton of effort into anything that's not a main character's mobile suit, and honestly never has. The UC tends to get more development and detail in its publications because that's the Gundam for die hard fans....

https://www.facebook.com/groups/gundammobilesuitposting/permalink/6744256615697616 Some new profile pictures for several WFM Mobile Suits appeared on Facebook. For those interested in the source, this is from the newly released The Report of Mobile Suit Gundam: the Witch from Mercury Season 2 that ...

I was wondering about Macross Plus movie edition - i mean, it's editing is ... well... it does not speak to me. Yes it has extended ending which is good but i prefer OVA version. Although Kawamori if i recall considers movie edition to be a definitive release. What does community think? Which versi...

isup.me says it's down for everyone.

Heck, not even are the different models incompatible until the unification plan, if we look at the EB books, it talks about how the same model (say, MS-06) can be incompatible if it is made in different factories that are licensed to manufacture them.(like a Zimmad factory plant manufacturing the M...

Hey y'all. I was wondering if the different frames from some Zeon MS are compatible with each other, what I mean is stuff like being able to replace the limbs of one mobile suit with the limbs of another without any major modifications. Generally? No. One of the many problems dogging the Principali...

Per the current AOZ reboot setting the Hi Zack was meant to be a better mobile suit, with the original prototype being a high performance marvel made by the federation, but it got some reduced specs and a defective reactor when AE took on the production job. IIRC later production units fixed the pr...

Also, I noticed the Profile for the "New Union Mobile Worker" used by Tekkadan was removed. Any reason for that? It can't be counted as the normal Union Mobile Worker because the New one had a cannon in place of the Machine gun. You mean the UW-33 Union Mobile Worker used by the Dort Comp...

Hello, honored elders. I've yet another question for you all, as above. During the Day of Dakar, Char finally outed himself as Casval Rem Deikun publically. How exactly did Zeon react to this, both Side 3 and Axis? I don't think it was really mentioned afterwards, definitly not in ZZ or any other a...

Perhaps an "honorable mention" type inclusion, One Piece is not sci-fi itself but it exists in a sci-fi world's postapocalypse and does have such sci-fi contrivances as lunar colonies, genetically-enhanced soldiers, cloning, cyborgs, robots, and even giant robots... and it also has a few m...

Gundam has: 1) the colony Judah moved to Alpha Centuri that will arrive in UC0653 (V manga side story) 2) the colony I forgot who moved to leave the Solar system (from Astray) 3) the final scene of the movie, the ship Sumeragi (https://www.mahq.net/sumeragi/) is probably also one. Considering the c...

Offhand... The titular SDF-1 Macross in Super Dimension Fortress Macross as well as the mass-produced Macross -class, Megaroad -class, New Macross City -class, Mainland -class, and Island Cluster -class. Basically any ship being used for space emigration and/or long term space exploration is basical...

Thank you. When you said "peacetime" it clicked into place for me. The reason to explain why the Titans went from the unimpressive Hizack to all the crazy prototypes in both Zeta and AoZ, including the most absurd thing like the two Psycho Gundam and Baund Doc... It's because they were at...

I get what are you saying, but there are something I want to make clear: No, I'm familiar with the G-Line and Pale Rider D II... and the programs that produced them. The Pale Rider series has a whole Master Archive devoted to how it came to be. For several of your arguments here, you seem to have f...

Ignoring the very real world reason that two of these three was created decades after Zeta, do you think the Hizack is any way superior to the G-Line and Pale Rider DII to make the Titans choose it? Sure I do. I'll tell you the one obvious area word it's clearly superior... cost performance. Perfor...
