Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam - 26

If you want an indicator as to how WEIRD Tomino UC Gundam was, this episode opens with Yazan feeling up a guy's balls to make sure they haven't shrunk before they entered combat.

That aside, this was a freaking good-looking episode. The Zeta V.S. the Gaplant was super fun and tense to watch. Even with it constantly getting interrupted by Katz running around with Emma.

So glad we finally get some Van and some Fulcan action, I really just want these two brothers to make up, its so much better than this awful Hitomi Allen plot, like why does she see something still in Allen when Van has been there for her always.

but I guess its for another day, glad he didnt die in the castles explosion
 
mama tanuki is so god damn cute when it's raining lol.

Also Phaze, I also question everything I stand for by shipping cousins but I just like to pretend cousin culture is different with Tanukis and in a world they freely eat smart creatures it should be fine considering everybody else wants them together.
 
One thing I like about Tomino UC Gundam, is that you constantly see goofy little moments in the middle of expository dialogue moments.

Like this scene here:


If literally anybody else had directed this, that guy who flew in the scene in the middle of that conversation wouldn't exist.

It sort of adds a layer of silly realism that you'd expect from a setting where people are in zero gravity, flying around with parts as they repair giant robots. It's not much, but it's a little detail that gives a bit of charm to spice up an otherwise normal dialogue scene between commander and squadron leader.

Yazan became one of my favorite Gundam characters by the end of Zeta.

Tsugumomo ep.9
Wait, a safe episode? No bath scene, none of the typical Tsugumomo hijinks? This is maddness great! I don't expect it to last next week, hell, with my luck, they will double down on the smut, lol.
 
She's in a surprisingly few numbers of episodes but sort of gets the Alec Baldwin Glengarry Glen Ross treatment due to presence.

I don't know what these words mean.

Even her can't compensante for the mountain of bad and annoying characters in the show.

Also yea she isn't that present.

Well, we'll see.

ZZ Gundam I've been told is a lot better than most people think. Apparently a lot of people think it's best to skip it entirely!

It's better in the "it can get so stupid it becomes a comedy" kind of way, but otherwise it's exceedingly dumb and poorly realized.
 
Isn't he one of the best pilots in the UC universe? He manages to
kill off a lot of named characters
and he isn't even a newtype!

Yeah, he's pretty good. It helps that he's completely bloodthirsty and only a Titan for the thrill of battle and nothing more.

The guy happens to kill the most annoying character in the entire show. He's a goddamn hero.

Technically, ZZ is sort of non-canon because there's no ramifications from it in any of the future U.C. timeline shows. It's sort of a "what if?" scenario. Lots of people don't like it because the first half has an emphasis on comedy which is a huge tonal shift in a sequel to something like Zeta Gundam, especially where it ended. Luckily, ZZ has a tone shift of its own that brings back to a more serious Gundam show. I still need to finish it myself though.

Uchouten Kazoku 2: 8

Interesting episode. Benten's meeting with Nidaime is as mysterious as ever, wonder when they will reveal the reason and what happened in London. Yashirou really in his own world enjoying his science lol. The Yajirou bit was sad and there's nothing wrong with Yasaburo being down about it. As for the last scenes with Kaisei, got an answer for a big lingering question, which is pretty intriguing for the exact reasoning. Also it's obvious she actually likes him but he hasn't really given off similar vibes for her. Taking Benten and that whole questionable shit out of the equation, they just trying to push this on him hard. It's not like it was with Gyokuran, we'll see how it goes from here though.
 
decided to give hero academia a chance and so far it gives me vibes from a mid 2000s manga where some dude with no magic entered a high school of magic, Mx0 was the name.

It also kind of reminds me to that horrible movie with Kurt Russell and that other piece of shit movie with Tim Allen
 
Dude

Sky High was a good disney movie as far as direct to tv disney movies go.

I will fight you.

The only Sky High I recall is a bad Kitamura film...

The plot isn't too far off from MHA. The son of the world's most famous superhero duo hasn't had his powers awaken and he goes to the super hero high school where you are chosen as either a hero or a sidekick.

The sidekicks are the nerds, the heroes are the jocks.

I literally dozed off because of all the droning dialogue. I would shut my eyes and just listen to them talk and talk before losing consciousness. It's so fucking boring. I woke up to see the dragon scene. And the final scene. Whatever. Boring shit.

KADO is so good. just started and caught up this weekend.
it looks great, and i really like the modern sci-fi thing. totally different from every other anime i've watched.
+ there's a million different directions the story can go, so that's cool. really looking forward to watching it play out.

1) how long's it supposed to go on?
2) any other shows like it?
3) I love this fake ass Wii U

I'm gonna take a stab here and say the reason Croix is the way she is is in part because of the Shiny Rod choosing Chariot but also because when she saved Chariot as a kid she lost her magic because she took the blast from the pollen. That also explains why you never directly see her using magic or fly on a broom, only magictek things.
