You could have used the plamodel thread.... As for your question, we don't know yet.

Not really. The beam shields are a variation of the device used at Artemis. And Beam shields are not standard armaments like in F-91 or V (well in F-91, EF didn't incorporate beam shields until F-91). That scene from "Never Ending Tomorrow" sounds a lot like the 3rd Battle of Victoria. "The third Battle of Victoria. The Earth Alliance attacks the ZAFT-controlled Victoria base, deploying numerous Dagger variations and new prototype machines for combat evaluation purposes." I have that scene in my MSV promotional vids. I'll check later. Terms of the treaty I guess. And yes, EA was in a good position in the last war. EA was beating ZAFT in numbers. ZAFT was beating EA with GENESIS. There lies the stalemate. ZAFT's defense line was crumbling. If Kusanagi, Eternal Athrun, and Cagalli got through, then you can be sure that EA broke through. But what did ZAFT have? GENESIS. One more shot would have ended it for EA. One more hour would have ended it for ZAFT. In the end, it was a stalemate.

Actually, Kisaka took the gold Murasame out. That would cheapen his return. To come back, only to die again. I would like to see Neo/Mu live but at the end of the series, yet still consider himself to be Neo. Maybe have bits and pieces of Mu's character in Neo but to have him remain as Neo. This way, we can say, yes, Mu is "dead". To give Murre something of a second chance with Mu, or what was Mu.

At least we know it will be Zeta and SEED models for the next year. The question now is, will this new gundam be a UC-story or a UC-ish AU story.

Mu's Sky Grasper was still in good shape after Alaska. Speaking of Sky Grasper...time for spoilers (Thanks to animesuki)

Kira? In space. Darn. Athrun? In bed with mutiple injuries. Rats. Neo/Mu? Nothing to pilot. You have to be freakin kiddin me if he uses a Sky Grasper against Destiny. Murasames? They don't seem to be doing to well. Well, someone's got to do it. Don't you love non-stop flights?

Breetai http://www.anime.net/macross/characters/k/...danik_vrlitwhai Exsedol http://www.anime.net/macross/characters/f/...l#folmo_exsedol Not sure what you mean by this. This question would probably be answered if you watch the series. Hikaru is a busy guy..... Guess what? You're in luck. ADV has the rights to the original series now and they will be re-releasing it soon. However, I'm sure you can find the Animeigo editions out there.

Let the pissing match begin.....

If you really have a problem with the story...blame these people: Chiaki Morosawa Hiroshi Ohnogi Hiroyuki Yoshino Kazuho Hyodo Natsuko Takahashi Shigeru Morita Yuuichi Nomura The writers.

Well gents, there is a satellite version of this week's episode without the scrolling emergency announcement (which I have and should be avaliable now). The hope is, next week's clip show will try to offer something we haven't seen or addressed yet. The last 2, despite being clip shows , did offer some food for thought. Hopefully, this one can do the same. edit: According to the Gundam Ace spoilers, Guess will have to wait 2 weeks.

...But seriously, it's not a question of the weapons on the thing, it's a question of its age. Regardless of how armed it is, it was designed *years* earlier than the latest generation of MS's - so like Strike it has a slower OS, outdated engineering and mechanics, and a less efficient power source (remember it was only Zaft who came up with the anti-neutron jammer cancellers - and even if ORB had the technology back then, there's no way Cagalli's dad would want to so blatantly violate the treaty and upset the balance, bla bla). ... 313472[/snapback] Anti-neutron jammer canceller...talk about a bad contridiction.... What treaty? I don't remember ORB ever signing any treaty. I'd take DOS/command prompt over any GUI any day.

Finally, Jona gets what he deserves. http://img53.imageshack.us/my.php?image=11...486474bc5qc.gif Kinda funny how Cagalli got Jona to admit to her identity. (BTW, there was an 6.0 earthquake in Japan so it will be a pain to find any clean screenshots) http://www.h-opera.com/ Apparently Kira has been teaching Cagalli some Jedi tricks. Akatsuki....No one can harm that thing...unless they get physical (i.e. melee fight, Shinn needs to perform his signature move, stab the belly with a anti-ship sword). Unlike a beam shield that absorbs the hit, the mirror coating armor reflects it right back. Not only are you wasting your shoot, you get a refund as well.

IIRC, it was another SA gunboat-type. But you may wish to search the forum as we have discussed this.

Don't you know? ZAFT has horrible security. It is possible that when they were loading up Gaia on the transport, that transport took a "detour". http://www.gundamofficial.com/worlds/uc/ba...html#beamshield I think that's the best answer we have for you.

There's one every generation. There's always someone out there who says this stuff "corrupts" our youth. A decade or 2 ago, it was TV.

Yep, still not done yet. More info (courtesy of AnimeSuki's forum)

Yeah I'm not done yet. (Spoilers, highlight to read, thanks to the guys at Seed-Forums)

Edited was not counted the the episode count. GSD may extend past the 50-episode mark (like 51..52...). It has been confirmed that it is moving up an hour early to make way for Blood TV series. But right now, we don't know. Also from Gunota, our 3 DOM pilots. There is an issue about the Gundam Ace previews so I'll post those when it gets cleared up. There are also Dengeki Hobby previews as well. I'll get to those when they are translated. Akatsuki's backpack is actually a Striker pack (looks like ORB had a Silhoutte system long before ZAFT... ) edit: one more thing. Word around the grapevine is Akatsuki was originally intended for Kira but he got Freedom so it went to Cagalli. A good nod to F91 would be if the 2 guns on the backpack were VSBRs. I would like to see those things again. Edit 2: even more images: Color Akatsuki (I think this is the real Hyaku Shiki homage...) And the DOM pilots, Euclid and Strike Booster:

In any case, Take-Two has ceased production of the game until Rockstar sends them a "clean" copy. Not that it matters now, the game has been out on PS2/Xbox for a year. Yeah...heaven forbid that a kid would get their pr0n from a video game.

Just a quick spoiler from the Char Blog:

Best Buy also pulled it. Lazy parenting? Sure. Just because you don't want to watch over your kid's well being, you expect others to do it for you....What happen to the days were it was your own damn fault? Geez. It is just as bad as that kid who said he got his cop killing ideas from GTA and people were blaming GTA, blah blah blah. I also get ideas from my violent games. You know, blasting someone with a rocket launcher, pumping a entire magazine into someone, etc. Heck, all of us have probably had some thought about acting out a gaming sequence. But that doesn't mean we'll actually go do it (unless you're that stupid). That kid was the one who killed the cop, not GTA. If the game has a "M/17+" rating and you're buying it for a 12 yr old....you gotta wonder. edit: clarify.

Unfortunately...Yzak's GOUF will probably not have the extra gatling gun from the ending theme animation. Nice custom though.

Oh, you mean the Orgus Valk.

Gundam X probably suffers from Family-Guy-syndrome. Bad time slot, horrible ratings, etc....then it comes out on DVD and boom, the popularity sours. With the X manga now, people want to go back and look at what this series was about. I've had X fansubs for....4..5 years now. And some people are now just discovering it. With Turn A, people didn't really notice it since very few people ever saw it. Now that fansubs have come out, more people are watching it. Could people be wanting more of a Gundam fix than they get from GS/GSD, or IGLOO? Sure. People read from us that SEED pays homage to the older series (MSG, Z, etc...) and they find out there's more Gundam out there. Some of which are older then they are. So they want to find out more. It's not unusual.
