Very interesting, I'm curious how much new information will be in the EXAM Master Archive and how many potential retcons it will have. I know the reboot manga has already changed a few things, along with a plethora or new MS variants to sell model kits. As for why don't we see Anti Newtype weapons i...

R.I.P. to an incredible creator. I'll always be grateful for Harlock, Galaxy Express and its associated works.

Interesting, didn't know how many similarities there were between Moon Crisis and Unicorn. As for anti-Newtype systems EXAM was the first and most iconic one, the Psychic Miasma given out by Marion's spirit would be an intense and malevolent 'pressure' that other Newtype feel, although that was more...

Ah I see what you mean, so basically they can combat load in the hangar/storage but have no actual ability to do technical maintenance or provide power/cooling for Mobile Suits that are in a non-operational status.

Gundam Octopus?? Now that's not what I've heard before, if it's Greece I wonder if its a reference to to Scylla & Charybdis. I was surprised quite a bit with the Neo Denmark plotline where they couldn't afford to repair their Gundam. Then in the finale they mass produced the Mermaid Gundam, asid...

EP 25 - Recap episode. Still not sure why a fire punch was effective against falling rocks or water instead of the preexisting cyclone punch. EP 26 - First episode of the new arc, seems they are regressing Domon's character development a bit, I suppose to match up with mastering a new Mobile Suit. E...

Yes indeed, the Sentinel Kai variants are better suited for carrying MS. Do you recall where you read that the Magellan Kai is the only Magellan with maintenance / repair capabilities? As I recall the original Magellan had internal storage space and I had thought it was repurposed as a Hangar for ba...

It's pretty bad in some places, there's a strobelight effect on the Machine King which is around once per episode for the first half of the series. Then there's the bright flashing lights for the Symmetrical Docking sequences which is also common throughout the show, but I don't recall if it gets le...

I am late to the party on this one, finally caught up with the show and well Okouchi certainly delivered a messy ending :shock: I've enjoyed reading everyone's discussions so far. I'm very curious to see whether or not the Ur's Rotary cannon is firing solid munitions, if that is the case then then t...

The carrying capacity of the different ships tends to vary quite a bit depending on the source and even the animation. It is further obfuscated when a source doesn't mention if the number of MS is it's standard carrying capacity or its absolute maximum capacity which is often referred to as a combat...

Yeah I was bit disappointed this episode since they immediately resolved the interpersonal drama between Suletta and Miorine, I guess the writers just don't like letting tension build. I think Ryujin was the first one to guess that Delling and Prospera would be cooperating. Quite surprising consider...

They were indeed, Rankin-Bass outsourced a lot of work to Japanese animation companies. For another example Voltron was also very successful in the west that they asked Toei to provide additional animation since they changed the story a bit from GoLion.

Yeah same, based on the 1st episode I expected next to nothing from Guel but he's certainly become the one plotline I'm looking forward to following the whole season. This was a pretty good episode, although I couldn't help think watching it they were addressing a lot of criticism from previous epis...

Ah I didn't know the glowlines were do to subcutaneous permet injections. That makes a lot of sense though, since I interpreted the mother's shocked face in the prologue because she had just found out that Eri could use Permet link but she wasn't the one who injected her with Permet, presumably that...

As for Permet, it seems similar to Cyber Newtypes in the UC Verse, in that both are somewhat vague. We never exactly get into detail on what makes a Cyber Newtype; While it's left vague in the animation Tomino's Zeta Gundam Novels do touch on the subject. Here's some further reading if you're inter...

EP 20 - George Beat the Nightmare I had completely forgotten there was a Butler mobile suit. What's more, there's even an MSIA of the Butler. This one seems like a filler episode and based on the animation quality dip I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of this one got subcontracted out while they work...

Miorine's investment in "protecting" Suletta and the Gundam Aerial is for her own sake. As long as Suletta is the Holder, Miorine has a fiancée who's too naive and ignorant to have an agenda of her own and too passive and easily manipulated to stop Miorine from doing exactly as she please...

The main obstacle in modern prosthetics is interpreting those nerve impulses and translating them efficiently into machine code instructions for electrically-driven actuators. Yeah I got a chance to see a DARPA tech demo for this back in 2008 or 2009 where they were showing how they were trying to ...

Couple things I actually find odd about the stigma: As a medical technology, GUND already seems safe. The prologue suggests its only dangerous as an MS technology due to the amount of data. The mystery of Aerial aside, Prospera's already proof that GUND is safe, as she's survived 21~ years just fin...
