YMMV / SD Gundam Full Color Theater

Go To

  • Ensemble Dark Horse: In one of the New Year's chapters, Azuma Yuuki wanted to have it focus on Gundam GP02 due to his immense popularity with women. Upon hearing this, GP02 was met with a Death Glare from Gundam and then immediately went to bed.
  • Fridge Brilliance:
    • Stargazer is literally a robot because characters in this series generally have the personality of their first pilot, and the Stargazer's first pilot is an AI.
    • Why are there two Strike Gundams in this series? It's because the one that appears after Freedom Gundam is based on Mwu La Flaga!
  • Funny Moments: Being a comedy manga, there are a lot of these, but here's a highlight of some of the best.
    • Gundam GP01's debut chapter has him uppercutting Gundam upon seeing him with a carrot. Later, when Gundam asks if he really goes berserk over carrots, GP01 states he only wanted to have a memorable intro.
    • When Methus sees Mark Two running out of the room crying in one chapter, she finds out from Zeta that a phone call from his brothers upset him. While talking to them, Methus finds out that it was about their dog, Baund Doc. At first, she assumes that it's because they were arguing over ownership, but then she finds out they were arguing over whether to get Baund Doc a blue collar or yellow collar.
    • In the second part of the Killer Strawberry arc, Stargazer Gundam is being controlled by one of said strawberry's seeds, which causes them to attack Strike Noir and run off, to him and Gundam's surprise.
      Strike Noir: What's wrong with that guy? It's like he's possessed by something...
      Gundam: Possessed?
      (Gundam glares at Strike Noir)
      Strike Noir: Wh-What?
      Gundam: Like in summoning rituals or Kokkuri-san...you wouldn't happen to be what caused this, would you?
      Strike Noir: It wasn't me! I can't make a 10-Yen piece move at all when I do Kokkuri-san!
  • Heartwarming Moments: When the Killer Strawberry seed-possessed Gyan asks why Strike Noir and Gundam are so concerned about attacking the robotic Stargazer, who is also possessed by one of the seeds, Strike Noir lashes out at him. Despite comparing them to a haunted doll that grows hair or cries blood, Noir says that Stargazer taught him that "even robots have a soul". It warms one's heart to see that Noir cares about Stargazer in his own way.
  • Tear Jerker: GP03's reason for asking Gyan to create Formula Triple-K. As had been established since his debut, GP03's brothers GP01 and GP02 fight all the time, and as time passed, GP03 began to think that his brothers fought because they hated him, so he asked Gyan to make a drug that would make people act good or bad. Considering that GP03 is estimated to be around the age of a kindergartener in human years, it's sad to see him go through something like that.
  • Unintentional Period Piece: The work occasionally makes references to Gundam series that are airing at the time, making the series a bit of a time capsule for that era. For example, when Duel Gundam appeared, he just went after Strike without even knowing why.
