It's a Gundam thread!

Somehow, I wish Build Fighter series would release custom IBO kits or parts compatible with them, or at least having IBO character expies appearing in the series.

Biscuit, Masahiro, and the rest have earned their place in Gundam Valhalla ;_;7

What happened is that the main writer (also the director's wife) got sick during production and started turning in scripts later and later, which made every other aspect of production suffer. (It turned out to be brain cancer. She died... last year? Two years ago?)"

Actually, Morosawa developed uterine fibroids and an ovarian cyst, and underwent a hysterectomy during Seed/GSD's production. The whole "Morosawa has brain cancer" was a joke made by some trolls.

Oh, and she died last year from an aortic dissection.

But it looks like that the Gundam Seed movie could be unofficially cancelled.

Holy shit, backtracking.

Huh, TIL. Mea culpa for just repeating random shit I read on the internet.

AGE Episode 16

Well, onto the second generation.

I find pretty sad to see that Flit has become alot more bitter and sour after what happened. I get the feeling that if Yurin had survived he would be alot more happy.

AGE Episode 17

The 2nd ending theme "My World" is pretty cool. And its also made by SPYAIR the same guys who did "Rage Of Dust" for IBO.

AGE Episode 18

3 episodes in to this generation and Asemu is already experiencing bad stuff, not at the same level as his dad but still.

AGE Episode 19

Huh, and I though the AGE-1 Spallow looked 00-ish. The AGE-2 looks like a wannabe 00 Raiser.

Not that I mind but still.

AGE Episode 20

Is it just me or did the Zeydra use a freaking Rider Kick!?

AGE Episode 21

Its pretty obvious now that Asemu has quite a fair share of parental issues, wich to be honest I can really relate to.

AGE Episode 22

Wow. Desil is now even more crazy than before! I know that Flit sparing him would turn out to be for the worst

AGE Episode 23

I am getting the feeling that with the way Flit is doing things, he will become just as bad if not worse than the Vagans.

AGE Episode 24

I had the feeling that Grodek's rather cold comment to that Vagan kid was gonna backfire, but I still feelt bad for him.

AGE Episode 25

Mother of God! Desil's facial expressions are really freaking creepy!

Hey, does anyone know where SD Gundam GX and Mobile Suit Gundam Secret Weapons Phantom Bullets fit in the Universal Century timeline? Asking because I'm trying to work on a page.

Is it a bad thing that I like most of the high powered/Bigger Stick Gundams?

I see nothing wrong with that. I mean I also like them because of Rule Of Cool reasons.

Secret Weapons Phantom Bullets takes place between 0079 and 0083.

No idea on GX, since I try to ignore SD Gundam as much as is possible.

AGE Episode 26

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOLF!!! Desil you son of a bitch! Its a good thing that Asemu finally killed that bastard once and for all.

Told you he'd get what was coming for him.

Yep yep.

Also, Behold THE SUPAH PAILOTTO!!!!!!

Binged another few hours of IBO's first season last night, with 5 episodes left.

McGillis keeps giving me weird Rau vibes even though his stated goals are more in line with a Milliardo-type of Char Clone.

Trust your instincts, padawan. He's not as actively malevolent as Rau, but he's just as nihilistic, broken, and terrible to work for.

You know, if there's one thing that came out of AGE that I think should definitely be re-used in another series, it's the concept of an Oldtype having passive immunity to Newtype Combat Clairvoyance.

I dont know, it kinda eliminates the 'danger' of new types. Things like Victory Gundam's ending couldnt happen and such.

re: Iaculus — DISAGREE. (That's all I'll say outside the dedicated IBO thread.)

Maybe, but Newtype powers being an automatic 'I win' card over non-Newtypes is kinda boring.

Now an Oldtype overcoming that kind of disadvantage, on the other hand, is badass. Just look at Garrod.

Or Yazan, for that matter.

(Dude was a sadistic psycho, but there's no denying his piloting skills.)

Honestly, Newtypes winning because they're Newtypes is really annoying because it sucks all the tension in the room/scene.

We need more Garrod Rans, more Mu La Flagas and a lot more Yazan Gables.

Dude, Mu was totally a Newtype (not a Coordinator, but an actual Newtype) what with that sixth sense of his.

And Prayer, his clone in X Astray, did very blatant Newtype mindlinking... if you consider Astray canon of course.

He's only a 'Newtype' because the director wanted a nod to them.

Weren't most of the Hero Killers in Zeta Oldtypes?

I'm a big Oldtype fan.

AGE Episode 27

REMIIIIIIIIIIII!!! Why do I get sad for the deaths of characters who have little screen-time!?

AGE Episode 28

Even after years. Flit's grudge against the Vagans just keeps getting bigger and bigger to the point he is nothing but a shadow of his former self.
