Gundam Show Thread - MSG thru Witch from Mercury

[Test_Pilot_2]

Binged Requiem last night. Plenty of B-Movie cheese in the dialogue and some character designs. Lots of jank.

However, the mood every time the Gundam showed up is undeniable. I liked the Jason reference, but instead to me this Gundam wasn't horror. It has an efficiency/no lack of wasted movement in its fighting that oozed true combat machine instead of most of the other drama mama Gundams. This thing meant business and it delivered like a mission-focused soldier would.

Very different feel to me and I liked that. It was fun to watch as long you go in prepared to forgive the cheese.

Ya, i liked how the Gundam was the nemesis of the show and had an almost sinister vibe going.

Lol. Yes, to me the character animation was the worst aspect. The mecha action was fun though.

I think he totally sensed the ending. He got so confused by knowing that the Zaku pilot was gonna abandon her child and continue fighting, even though she said she didn’t want further conflict. He was just so shocked by the future stupidity of the bad writing, that he was overwhelmed and then got stabbed.
