*** Most notorious of all, "Beginning" is most undeniably a reimagining of King Crimson's "Prince Rupert Awakes".

While the story stood on its own in beginning well enough, the episode of Lt. Matilda introducing the G-Fighter/G-Armor/G-Bull to the White Base was a very obvious sign that the direction of the series had to rely on introducing new toy gimmicks to keep going. The scene itself just felt like the commercialized direction that many cartoons would take during TheEighties.

* VanillaUnit: ''Anime/MobileSuitGundam'': The humble [=GM=], the mass-produced version of the Gundam, is more than a match for their primary opposition the Zaku [=IIs=], Goufs and Doms. However, unlike the Gundam they're made of regular titanium (except for their lunar titanium shield) and their beam spray gun has less range than the Gundam's beam rifle. In-universe, they're considered BoringButPractical, with a design that would continue to be used for decades with occasional improvements.
