Personally, I think Judau's interactions with Haman are just as weird.

Re: You know Char's plan in CCA is actually kind of stupid.

Dropping Axis was never a priority. Everything he did was to set the stage for his climatic final battle with Amuro. I doubt he had any plans for the future past that.

Re: Let's Watch (In Horror) ZZ Gundam

The rest of his friends are OK, especially fiesty Elle, but I can already tell I'm not going to like Beecha and Mondo. Imma toss them out the airlock too, ok?
Beecha gets better later on. Mondo, however...

And I would have preferred dropping both of them to give Elle and Roux more screen time.

Re: New Gundam AGE "project" is "green-lit"

Given that Age spans 7 decades, I'm not surprised that a sidestory will be released. I just wish it would be about Flit and Emily in the years following Ambat instead of Zeheart and Asemu. In my opinion, the series started to decline with those two.

Re: The Official Gundam AGE Anime Thread AGE-9

Wong in particular should be imprisoned for the way he treated Kamille. He deserved to have Judau put him in his place. Slapping, kicking and punching of subordinates, especially children, would be out of place in today's Gundam. Could you imagine seeing Grodeck kicking Flit in the stomach, or Seric...

Re: Victory Gundam

One big question- what exactly became of Angel Halo? I'm pretty sure last we see the segments adapt and start carting off Zanscare ships but what happened afterwards? I've heard apparently its ruins appear in the G-Saviour game. Yeah, it was used as some weapon factory, I think, but since it was in...

Re: Latest movie thread.

I saw The Possession and Resident Evil Retribution today. The Possession was okay, but failed to scare me in the slightest (though to be honest, most horror movies can't perturb me one bit). I loved Resident Evil, it had some of the best fight scenes you'll see in a movie today, and was defintely pr...

Re: Victory Gundam

And so the end. Why did Odelo have to die? It just felt so pointless when all the other kids survive. He was a great, fun character and his last words made it worse. Katejina killing him really didn't need to happen. Speaking of I'm branding Chronicle and her the Zehearts of the show. Chronicle was...

Re: Victory Gundam

It's been a while since I have seen Victory in its entirety but I'm pretty sure that Maria's powers to heal had more to do with psychology than anything metaphysical, but I can't say that with absolute certainty. And you're right that it is possible that there are newtypes who aren't good in battle ...

Re: Victory Gundam

I dunno. Look at what a big deal was made about Uso possibly being a Newtype, with Zanscare briefly trying to recruit him. I have to wonder if part of the Zanscare brainwashing is downplaying other Newtypes in their society solely so they can be collected and used in Angel Halo. A bit like how in T...

Re: The Official Gundam AGE Anime Thread AGE-9

Did True Odyssey really do that poorly sales-wise? I got the NA MS Saga ver. and it wasn't horrible. Wasn't fluid, but wasn't clunky either like some other RPGs I've played. I'd have to dig it up but I'm sure I remember reading on Gunota that the game barely registered in the sales charts in Japan....

Re: Victory Gundam

Psychickers are more than likely not newtypes since it would have been impossible for that many of them to exist in any one place at any given time. If they were actual newtypes, I think Zanscare would have deployed them in the field long ago, and would have clearly dominated the war. I believe the ...

Re: Create the next Gundam TV Series

If I could craft my own Gundam series, it would go like this: 1. The world is comprised of one super continent. The nations of the world have been in constant battle with each other for millenia, primarily for territory and resources. Mobile suits were created a hundred years prior to the present da...

Re: Victory Gundam

She probably did not say anything because the others got in the way and stopped her the other times, so she wanted to go all the way without being entrenched. In her mind, she could reason with Chronicle and Maria just by highlighting the evils of war. She never took into consideration that Chronicl...

Re: Victory Gundam

Shakti is young and naive. Her attempts to end the war caused a lot of trouble for her friends, especially Uso, and she sometimes put them in danger all in her effort to save them. However, she is not a combattant and really wants to help and protect her friends by bringing an end to the war. Diplom...

Re: The Official Gundam AGE Anime Thread AGE-9

I also wondered how exactly he would reduce the huiman race to the select few that Ezelcant spoke of. If he had a Rau le Creuset type strategy, I could see the possibility, but all there was at the end was a huge final battle, the results of which would not have concluded in the completion of his pl...

Re: The Official Gundam AGE Anime Thread AGE-9

On a side note- Flit should've died in that final battle, his character DID NOT deserve redemption for his actions throughout the series. Similarly Zeheart should've survived the series. His character would've been better served to realise that he was being manipulated by Ezelcant and then act acco...

Re: The Official Gundam AGE Anime Thread AGE-8

So Age has finally come to an end. There were some good points in this ep, such as the battle against Zera/Sid and the scene where Flit was confronted by the ghosts of his past to give up his hatred against the Vagan was done a lot better than I expected (I'm guessing he actually could see them sinc...

Re: The Official Gundam AGE Anime Thread AGE-8

AGE doesn't do this. AGE has concepts for characters and their arcs and then fails to communicate these. With Flit for instance they can't seem to decide if he's a soldier who hates the Vagan but beyond that is a champion or madman who will wipe out his own forces as long as Vagan go down with them...

I gave a salute to Obright for his actions and a picture of him will go up on the wall of AGE heroes including Seric, Woolf, and Grudek aka legendary captain. And Obright proved that Asemu and Woolf weren't the only super pilots by taking out two named antagonists in powerful suits. I believe his X...
