I'll give him those props at least.

Also, loved that episode!

When you pit Nazis against apocalyptic super-vampires, I guess you don't root for the ones who'll kill all humans if they win.

Santviento is pure Body Horror. Rarely have I felt so squeamish watching it, and I love that trope. He's like Cell on steroids.

Are the other Pillar Men as fascinatingly gross?

@ blue: Not impossible, though it wouldn't be as explicit an homage as Necalli seeing as the whole "fighting in the a thong" deal comes from the ancient Greek Olympics.

Well one uses his literal veins as combat tentacles to pump & spread hot as fuck burning blood.

[up][up] Well, given the Nazis party's most iconic means of problem solving and beliefs, not sure if this counts as evil vs oblivion.

Huh this is a pretty good op.

o7 for the brave civilian who selflessly sacrificed himself to make sure the blast door to the bunker was sealed tight.

Even if they're not very visually gruesome, these civilian deaths are tough to watch.

@ Alpha: surprised

This theme song may not be a RAISE YOUR FLAG, but it's pretty good. [awesome]

So is the Vist Foundation related to Zeon or is it those guys who came with Audry? The women with the drone mobile suit is Marida right?

Didn't a colony get a hole in it in the original Mobile Suit Gundam?

No, the Vist Foundation isn't connected with Zeon, it's actually connected with the Federation.

Yeah, that's Marida in the MS.

As for the Vist Foundation, it's more complicated, but all you need to know for now is that they're art traders between the earth and space colonies, as well as the largest stockholder of Anaheim Electronics (which is responsible for the production of a lot of the current and next-generation Mobile Suits in Gundam).

I feel the Unicorn theme starting up. Is this the moment of truth? grin

I love this theme. So haunting and powerful. [tup]

Seriously, Full Frontal's got to have some of the worst hair to ever go on a Char Clone.

Geez I'm happy I watched all the UC series back in November, because holy hell does this series have a lot of Continuity Lock-Out.

Ahaha so Marida's group is Zeon or at least affiliated with them.

Pretty gorgeous fight scene. I knew this shit would look good when I heard it was originally a highly regarded OVA.

[up][up] I wouldn't say a complete lockout, but knowing what happened in the other series helps with understanding why Marida's so pissed about seeing a Gundam or pretty much anything involving Audrey.

[up] Just wait until Full Frontal and his crew show up. grin

Also, the Sleeves are The Remnant of Neo-Zeon from Char's Counterattack, which makes them a remnant squared.

It's an exceptionally well-made series, that's for sure.

@ Lionheart I'm able to follow it so far, but just barely. Glad to know I'm not he only one suffering from Continuity Lock-Out.

The scene with his dad was just as surreal the second time around.
