While I appreciate Sunrise going out of their way to animate side stories, the fact it's only U.C. stuff that deals with Zeon is kinda getting repetitive. I would love to see some side stories from the alternate universe shows get fleshed out. I would love to get a Gundam 00 prequel, as there's material out there explaining events before 00 season 1 I would find amazing to watch if they tweaked the story a fair bit. I'm hoping we'd get a Calamity War OVA or miniseries before IBO is truly over and done with. Also kinda feels like Sunrise is kinda jumping the gun on this adaptation a bit. Unicorn was out for years and revered by Tomino himself before epiosde 1 of the OVA came out (2006 to 2010). The Origin manga had already been done years before the anime started, even longer if you considering they're only covering prequel material at the moment(2011 to 2015). Thunderbolt had started coming out 3 years before the anime did (2012 to 2015). But Twilight Axis has like...5 chapters out or something? |

His interactions with Kudelia seemed to be the old humanizing the human robot trope again then Biscuit's death happened and he starting regressing.
Season 2 didn't even try to have him develop then there was the stuff about Mcgillis' background which I felt were completely unnecessary and only got added for the edge factor. Basic Mikazuki doesn't give a shit about anything outside of Orga's orders, according to some or with a 1-time viewing. Actual Mikazuki comes to terms with things his own way (being mostly just a human weapon, not having much prospects outside of it besides his farming hobby, showing some interest in having a child/legacy, actually admitting to valuing Atra, which despite obvious shows of this before him just saying it shows he knows it needs to be made clear). He also knew someone had to say something to Tekkadan as a whole after Orga's death came to light, and more importantly he kept them from just trying to stand and take revenge, partially just because it's "Orga's orders", but clearly because he's been obsessed with the whole finding their place to belong promise that not only did he talk back to Orga earlier because of that, but subtly wants to make sure Tekkadan achieves that, thus making sure all the lesser fighters escape while he and Space-Guts fight. Not quite sure how McGillis' story was unnecessary, if anything it makes clear and enhances his interest in Tekkadan, as they have similarly taken shit from this corrupt society while just being kids.

Agreed. Unicorn I felt like was a good end point for any new Zeon stuff. The Origin as well, but that's prequel material so it's not really an end point.

TA is literally just something they threw together to advertise a membership program the kits for it being slight retools or just color changes of decade old models also heavily support this. |

And with that IBO is done (I watch via Crunchyroll, so yeah, little late. Worth it so I can watch it on my TV). I'll missing the living daylights out of the show, easily my fifth favorite Gundam entry ever.

Hey quick question for you gunpla builders out there, but do you know if the colors listed in the instruction for gunpla are mr brands paints or aqueous hobby color brand?
Edit: okay they're both Mr. brand paints, but now the question is which should I use?

Just to note most Mr. Color paints to my knowledge are lacquer based paints so be careful if you plan to use them don't know about aqueous.

The new Gundam Versus game for PS4 is getting a western release this fall.
Well, looks like I'm gonna have to pick up 2 copies to support this. |
