They called it, it is a GUNDAM!

 

[Wheeljack539]

Yea, this is the last part of the 1st OVA so expect at least a natural end.

Actually the first two thirds are the last of the first OVA. If they kept the commercial break the same as the japanese version you'll definately see where OVA 2 starts.

 

[Moaradin]

This chick's Gundam is pretty rad looking.

 

[Soulflarz]

o/

 

[Mik317]

time to be whelmed

 

[BatDan]

OVA budget still delivering great looking fights

 

[HStallion]

Is it weird to enjoy all the random violent scenes featuring civilians killed in horrible detailed ways? It adds something to the reality that people are fighting a war in populated areas.

 

[Schadenfreude]

Benagher is still the dumbest name ever

Banagher.

 

[cntr]

Here's what I came for, MECHA ANIMATION AND O'NEIL CYLINDERS

 

[Dedication Through Light]

Marida suit with those bits is the best.

 

[ckohler]

They call it Gundamu!

 

[Crimson_Echidna]

He dead.

 

[Ultratech]

Woops, hit the reactor!

 

[Shard]

That might have been overkill.

 

[ShinRPGamer]

This chick's Gundam is pretty rad looking.

Helps that she's had the best moments in the series so far.

 

[Korigama]

From the colony architecture to Banager's outfit, I've gotten Zone of the Enders vibes from this.

 

[BBboy20]

What?

 

[BatDan]

War!
What is it good for?
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING

 

[Schadenfreude]

They call it Gundamu!

Dunno if you've heard, but I am Gundam.

 

[Moaradin]

I still don't really know who these people fighting are or why.

 

[Ashby]

Zeon movements sure do love killing civilians

 

[SparksterMeta0]

Calling it.
All those kids are gonna die.

 

[Grexeno]

DRAMATIC BUILDING CRACK

 

[Shard]

Oh hey, Not White Base.

 

[Dr. Chaotix]

I'm guessing they're bad because they're called "The Federation" and anything called the "Federation" in anime has to be bad.

 

[Man God]

Titan scum!

 

[Crocodile]

Ai-yai-yai-yai!

LOL this alone was enough to get the theme to play in my head

 

[Kaizer]

I still don't really know who these people fighting are or why.

I think this is the Neo Zeon group & they're after Laplace's Box? Or at least that's the gist I got from the recap.

They actually started out as the good guys and got grayer as the timeline went on.

 

[BatDan]

WE SHOULD NOT BE HERE!

Oh look, they're all dead

 

[Schadenfreude]

Okay, I can kinda understand Banagher's anti-war sentiment. This is fucking brutal.

 

[Crimson_Echidna]

I still don't really know who these people fighting are or why.

You have the Federation and you have Zeon. Zeon is all like "fuck the Earth because gravity weighs the soul down." They want independence from Earth but their way of going about it is bomb the shit out of colonies.

 

[Grexeno]

Yep they all dead

 

[Mik317]

YOU HAVE KNOWN HER FOR LIKE 20 MINUTES BRO

 

[SparksterMeta0]

...OK.
Almost called it.

 

[ShinRPGamer]

Welp, they're dead.

 

[Shard]

Um, hope you watched Zeta Gundam to know what that is.

 

[Soulflarz]

>leave me
>dont leave me

gdi

Um, hope you watched Zeta Gundam to know what that is.

hm?

 

[Wheeljack539]

I think this is the Neo Zeon group & they're after Laplace's Box? Or at least that's the gist I got from the recap.

Basically Cardeas Vist was going to give them the key to finding what is called "Laplace's Box" which depending on how it used could bring down the Federation.

The transfer was supposed to be a secret but somehow the Feds found out which is where we are now.

 

[Ashby]

Um, hope you watched Zeta Gundam to know what that is.

Why the hell would someone have not watched Zeta Gundam?

 

[Dr. Chaotix]

That was some nice dead body animation.

 

[cntr]

Zeta types!

 

[Mizerman]

I'm guessing they're bad because they're called "The Federation" and anything called the "Federation" in anime has to be bad.

Funny enough, the Federation are good guys despite being dickish throughout the UC timeline.

 

[Schadenfreude]

Seems kinda dicked out.

 

[the_sun_king]

Yup, this is classic Gundam.

Violence/war arriving on the doorstep of a space colony to change the lives of innocent civilians who end up getting embroiled in the conflict.

 

[ShinRPGamer]

Why the hell would someone have not watched Zeta Gundam?

It's more common than you think. I've never watched it as well.

 

[Dedication Through Light]

No Hiro Shimono as this character, one of the few vas I miss in this dub.

 

[ramoisdead]

This chick's Gundam is pretty rad looking.

I agree. I like Micott's look. Reminds me of the anime of the 80s, early 90s.

 

[Shard]

Shooting the kid is out of the question but pistol whipping should be just fine.

Cool, thanks for clearing that up!
