Ok, this is how I see the I-Field, explained in simplistic form. In regards to ballistics, an I-Field is as effective as air. We can all agree with that, no? When in regards to beam weapons, I like to think of it generally as a brick wall deflecting a tennis ball. No matter what side of the wall yo...

Was watching 0083 today, and go to the third episode when I noticed this. Kou goes to collect the things of the pilot who died in the previous episode when the Dom hit him with a bazooka from close range. He picks up a football with the letters NFL on it. I wonder if the NFL is still only in Americ...

I'm not sure if it's worth noting, but we do have some circumstantial evidence for backup cameras in the Dom. In the third-to-last episode of 08th MS Team , before Norris' attack on the Guntanks, Karen has a close encounter with a Dom. In the process of fighting with it, she blasts the machine's he...

I was just looking at the stats for both units, and I can't seem to find any positive changes in performance in the conversion of the 78-1 to the 78-2. In fact, the 78-1 weighs less, has a higher thruster output and a faster acceleration than the 78-2 with the rest of the stats being identical, so ...

This is one of those things where you don't apply suspension of disbelief. What most people don't understand is that suspension of disbelief was for the sake of the viewers to take it upon themselves to enjoy entertainment by believing everything as is. Right now we're trying to discuss the languag...

I believe they were trained by Rena Imelia on Earth. Does anyone know what they were trained on? Did the EA build Strike prototype units or something? What's the background info on Rena and how she was good enough to train them? EDIT: I noticed that a wiki (I know they're unreliable) says that she ...

I think the five Gundams were built at Heliopolis, actually. Then how is that everyone is saying that those 5 pilots could barely operate the Gundams? Were the pilots training at Heliopolis and then went to Earth (or wherever) for some reason? Perhaps direct training by Mwu? It doesn't quite make s...

That would seem to imply that they are converted fighter/mobile armor pilots.

And played by Tom Cruise.

Mark does indicates in his timeline the the beginning of the Dom's production was on late September. California Base was recaptured on December 15th. This would mean that most of the 600 Doms would have been produced in only 80-90 days. Zeon has some really high work ethics. That's about 7ish minim...

You rang?

My breasts are tingling. Is someone calling me?

Hang up the phone... both of you.

Yeah, well, not if I know 0083 kind of falls as a zeon show but its nothing victorious for zeon i just want them to win lol And since in the Gundam story so far, Zeon loses the One Year War and then pretty much loses every war afterward, well, uh, you're not going to get around it. I tend to ignore...
