Why does he love this girl so much?

this is like jumping into the middle of a series and having to catch up....


i am so lost that it is making the crazy gundam fights meaningless.

With the explanation that Zeon are bad guys and Federation are good I feel like you should be able to keep up.

 

[Soulflarz]

enjoy the ride~

 

[Wheeljack539]

No, the planet got fucked up by a colony drop and then the One Year War.

The Colony Drop was in the first week of the OYW wasn't it? With the follow up at The Battle of Loum several weeks later.

 

[Grexeno]

So he gave him the robot I guess

 

[Kaizer]

This feels like a JRPG intro.

 

[Mizerman]

ah so thats who that voice is.

can't wait for one of his patented Staley-gasms

...Yeah, he can be hit or miss with his emotive yells.

 

[Dr. Chaotix]

Eww. Dude, your hand is bloody.

 

[Shard]

I think this is a direct parallel to Amouro and his dad.

 

[BatDan]

This looks like where the first OVA ends

 

[Soulflarz]

ok

 

[Crocodile]

That was his dad? I feel this is new info but I guess they must have told us episodes ago.

 

[SparksterMeta0]

He got Shinji'd hard.

 

[blitzwolf215]

Hmm, didn't see that, well saw it during those last few seconds.

That was his dad? I feel this is new info but I guess they must have told us episodes ago.

I think this was to be the reveal, it wasn't mentioned before.

 

[Crimson_Echidna]

Damn, being a parent in a Gundam series comes with a high fatality rate.

 

[Moaradin]

That was his dad? I feel this is new info but I guess they must have told us episodes ago.

Pretty sure he just revealed it?

 

[Man God]

I think this is a direct parallel to Amouro and his dad.

His dad goes crazy.

 

[foxuzamaki]

dat good ass sawano music, gonna play some xenoblade x fam

 

[Schadenfreude]

Kick some space Nazi ass, bro.

 

[Mik317]

I do remember Unicorn being hax as fuck tho from my watch of the OVA years back

 

[PapaGreg95]

You know this is why I prefer Iron Blooded orphans, simple premise with a simple fight scenes, the Gundum series always felt a little convoluted for me

 

[Crimson_Echidna]

I think this is a direct parallel to Amouro and his dad.

Didn't Amuro's dad go kind of crazy?

 

[Dr. Chaotix]

 

[Soulflarz]

dat good ass sawano music, gonna play some xenoblade x fam

n o

 

[Shard]

Yes, yes he did.

 

[Jarate]

Super saiyan

 

[BatDan]

Newtype Detected

Here's your toy everyone!
Looks pretty cool though

 

[Ultratech]

Oh hey, Trans-Am!

Wait...wrong show.

 

[Crimson_Echidna]

Why does he love this girl so much?

Because they're both Newtypes. That was more or less the reoccuring theme with the UC; newtypes being automatically drawn and emotionally attached to one another.

 

[Kaizer]

DAT OVA ANIMATION BUDGET THO

 

[foxuzamaki]

n o

y e a

 

[Schadenfreude]

This OST is rockin.

 

[PureYeti]

Gundam....

 

[Man God]

Unicron looks dumb.

 

[cntr]

I kind of forgot how much shit happened in a span of a few minutes

 

[SparksterMeta0]

What? A GUNDAM?!

Obligatory

 

[Mik317]

G U N D A M B O Y S

 

[HStallion]

Unicorn even has invincibility while transforming. Bad game design!

 

[Shard]

The excellent visuals are helping the lack of emotional resonance.

 

[Dedication Through Light]

Too bad first gundam is ugly.

 

[Moaradin]

But aren't these other things Gundams?

 

[blitzwolf215]

Because they're both Newtypes. That was more or less the reoccuring theme with the UC; newtypes being automatically drawn and emotionally attached to one another.

So he's not just being creepy, it's plot related.

 

[BatDan]

GUNDAM IS THE ENEMY

 

[cntr]

"Psychoframe" -- basically psychic mecha used by Newtypes.

That's how he knows how to pilot it.

 

[Crocodile]

"IT'S A GUNDAM!!!!"

Hmm, didn't see that, well saw it during those last few seconds.

I think this was to be the reveal, it wasn't mentioned before.

Pretty sure he just revealed it?

oh ok, I thought maybe I wasn't paying enough attention before

 

[Soulflarz]

so
gundams are OP?

 

[Dr. Chaotix]

Well, at least it looks and sounds pretty. It's a nice spectacle.

 

[Ashby]

Amuro still the best Gundam protag

 

[Schadenfreude]

Because they're both Newtypes. That was more or less the reoccuring theme with the UC; newtypes being automatically drawn and emotionally attached to one another.

Thanks, man! All the explanations tonight have caught me up on the show.

 

[B.K.]

But aren't these other things Gundams?

No. Not all Mobile Suits are Gundams.

 

[Hellwarden]

Oh yeah, this asshole.
