Re: The Dawning of Dom
It might help to look at this in a different view point. Looking through the MAHQ profiles of the mentioned suits I think I pieced together something that makes a bit of sense of how the MS-08B fits into the development history. I believe Zimmad started testing of the dom series using the MS-07C-5 G...

Re: The Official Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans Mecha Thread Mk
I have two theories on why beam weapons are not present in this universe. 1. The calamity war is probably named after the widespread destruction it caused. Considering the earth had to be set up into economic blocks, with mars and juipter being divided by those blocks. Its very possible that beam we...

Re: The Official Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans Anime Thread Mk
The ending theme reminds me of Old Folk Blues (or whatever it's called) from Cowboy Beebop, but crossed with Zeta's ending theme. Definitely a Zeta vibe coming from this show. Definitely. Okada, you're fastly impressing me, and it looks like you know how to write a fight scene like Tomino. Good sho...

Re: The Official Gundam Build Fighters Try Mecha Thread Mk I
My guess is that it can't use it. The deuterion system has to parts the supplier and the receiver. The impulse is equipped with a receiver, but the other part is attached to the Minerva; which in itself is a battleship. My guess is that the Minerva or any battleship would fall into the category of c...

Re: The Official Gundam Build Fighters Try Mecha Thread Mk I
To me at least with this latest episode I might have an answer for the plavasky particle storage conundrum. My initial thoughts is that it has to do with the space inside the gunpla. Most gunpla of the high grade line are hollow inside, which allows them to store a certain quantity of particles. Thi...

Re: [Zeta Novel] - Zeon Zum Deikun's Speech
I think we're glossing over something when it comes to space colonies in the earth sphere, and this is illustrated by the Jupiter Empire. The Jupiter Empire practice population control, not because they want to, but because its essential to there own survival. Everything is rationed offed from food,...

Re: Hovering and Water
So from what I'm reading the basic jist is as follows. Mobile suits like the dom can hover over water, but the mobile suit itself needs to be in continuous motion. Otherwise the mobile suit risks falling into the water it is hovering over. The question is how deep can this water get ? For instance c...

Re: question about various mass-produced Astrays
Performance wise the M1 Astray is I believe to be on par with the earth alliance strike daggers, but still poorer performance to Z.A.F.Ts Guiaz models. In a sense the red frame with flight pack might be closer to the actual performance of the mass production M1 Astray. The flight pack the red frame ...

Hovering and Water
This is just a question that popped into my head, but can mobile suits and ships with hovering capabilities cross bodies of water ? What I mean by bodies of water is lakes, and oceans. I would think suits like the dom series wouldn't have a problem "water skating" , since they can hover th...

I'm starting to think the Klim is this series Patrick Colasour. Everything he tries to do seems to backfire on him in some way or form. This makes me wonder if we should start calling him the "Immortal Genius" Nick Klim.

Re: Skirting Madness
I have a question. If the thrusters are not accounted for in the main thrust could it be that they are considered vernier thruster/apogee motors then, and included in that number ? I know at some point that category disappears in a mobile suits, I guess we can call it an information page. Though if ...

Re: The Official Gundam Build Fighters Try Anime Thread Mk I
I think the origins of the build burning is actually from two separate machines. The first part of the machine base is most likely the ZGMF-X56S Impulse Gundam. This is seen mostly in the upper torso, head, and arms. The second one, and is a bit more of a shot in the dark, is the GAT-FJ108 Raigo Gun...

Re: The Official Gundam Build Fighters Try Mecha Thread Mk I
One way to look at the thrusters of the Hyaku Shiki is that it's a specialty part. If memory serves me right bandai sells accessory runners. These range from spikes for Zeon shoulder armor, to weapons and even verniers and thrusters. It is possible that in the Gunpla Fighter universe that special me...

The tournament is called the Gunpla Battle under 19 Japanese Championship west Tokyo block. This means there is most likely an ...

Why do they have a glider that does nothing but descend? Is it because they don't fully understand the technology or they didn't fix it up enough or what? The gliders are most likely meant to be used as an emergency evacuation tool. In the event that something happens to the nut, they can be used t...

It was hinted at in ether episode two or three that Yuuma learned to build from a former world champion. We can assume that this was Sei.

Meh, if it turns out Rayaraiya's only suffering from hypoxia, than I'm going to be pretty annoyed. I guess I need to google it and see if such behavior is standard or recorded before. I believe it is a severe case of hypoxia. From what I've seen and what has been explained through Fritz in the Show...
