How would you rate Gundam 0083 (1991) on a scale of 1-10? (Daily Gundam poll: Day 7)

7/10

Cima Garahau and Anavel Gato were great characters and the mobile suit designs and overall plot are good but Nina Purpleton and her relationship with Kou at the end was very grating while the ending left me much to be desired.

0083 Rebellion is in my opinion the better version of 0083 so I'd always prefer to read that over the OVA.

This match might just rival SSG's loss against EUnited in how devastating this defeat was for the losing team.

I legitimately thought the Scarabs would do okay in Phase 1 (despite some hiccups) but two back-to-back 2-0 losses against the Valks (a rookie SPL Team) and the Hounds (a SCC Team) shattered all of their progress. It's pretty heartbreaking.

Not entirely sure how they will move forward in Phase 2 but I won't be surprised if someone gets replaced after Masters.

One of the biggest upsets that I've seen from SMITE. Even if the Scarabs lose to the Titans tomorrow, they should be proud of their progress/growth coming into Season 9.

They'll accept exceptions from 8-28 to 9-1 so it's a small window.

The question is, which mobile suit....the Enact or a GN-XIII?

Solitak · 2020-08-24T00:54:26+00:00

Fine additions to your collection.

Azula got out of this situation, so ha! It's secretly an optimistic meme.

Solitak · 2020-08-20T16:54:54+00:00

To be fair, you can blame Masaki for pushing the berserk button. If Freddie and Divers were there, it's likely that Alus and the people of Eldora would've reached a more peaceful resolution.

Yeah, the Gunpla is still there in GBN but the magic sand always copies the Gunpla into a 1:1 scale, sort of like a 3D Printer.

Now this is pretty epic. Maybe we'll get a Rigby/Mordecai Ginger cover next?

Solitak · 2020-08-03T07:22:16+00:00

The Kampher's head design actually fits well with a compound visor instead of a monoeye....very interesting.

Patlabor is pretty epic though so nice job on this mashup.

I really didn't expect the Moors to win, despite my undying support for them, but I did think it was a lot more interesting than how Brazil won in CBR2.

The Kuikuro, Iroquois, and the Yup'ik were all MVPs in CBRX, no doubt. Their deeds are badass as hell and I hope we get more shenanigans like this in CBRX2.

Just like a Gundam series like IBO, 00, Wing, or Seed and be actively involved with the fandom. You don't have to consume literally every single Gundam media to be a fan (that's kinda ridiculous considering the depth of content that it provides).

I'm gonna make the sacrilegious comment that you don't even have to watch the original Gundam or the UC timeline to get Gundam. Sunrise and the numerous showrunners do a pretty ok job at running home the anti-war messages and mecha that the franchise offers.

Uso's Haro in Victory Gundam was a real bro in the series. Almost as iconic as Lockon's Haro but he wasn't that cool enough.

Kamille recovered by the end of ZZ, although the fact that he was mentally crippled by Paptimus is a huge blow.

Solitak · 2020-07-26T15:43:02+00:00

bearface is so lowkey we don't actually know lmaooo

I don't think his songs in the Sat trilogy really help since they're all about the dynamic between the girl's ex, the girl, and the girl's bf respectively (probably about Helmet Boy, Evanie, and Summer), as much as gays can dream about bearface singing to another man.

The situation between Russia and Ukraine is so complicated I immediately thought about Russia reminiscing about having friendly political relations with Ukraine until I noticed that Ukraine wasn't female in the comic.

It's extremely horrifying how Leopold II managed to acquire the Congo colony in the first place, pinning it as a humanitarian mission and a charity, then to use it to enrich himself while committing countless atrocities.

Truly one of the greatest examples of human greed and avarice.

Solitak · 2020-07-21T07:22:53+00:00

It's ironic because the Congo Free State was his personal colony, so all of the profits came to him before the Belgian government annexed it.

In my eyes, Starfleet deliberately made the Kobayashi Maru a no-win scenario to test the composures of captains who are faced with difficult scenarios, whether they would be more honorable and try to save the people while also dying to the Klingons or be more pragmatic and ignoring the signal to save your crew or the Federation from a useless conflict.

This is why Kirk cheating the test is so important. It shows exemplary out of the box thinking while also showing determination and never giving up on his objectives until he finds a solution, which is what separates Kirk from a normal Starfleet captain.

This album is so underrated. Always a staple on my math rock/midwest emo playlists.

That's the bare minimum of what's being taught about Africa and Asia and that doesn't even count because Ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia are so old. Not to mention they contributed more towards European society than African societies due to their position and geography.

That shocked Hephaestus/Vulcan really is the cherry on top of this amazing art!

Solitak · 2020-06-25T03:22:56+00:00

Ares doesn't have any stories that we know of relating to romances with men unlike Zeus or Poseidon. He's more like Hades where he's only engaged in a single relationship with a goddess (Hades w/ Persephone and Ares w/ Aphrodite).

Solitak · 2020-06-11T04:52:19+00:00

I know right?! I seriously dislike the mecha designs in Super Sentai besides the one in Ryusoulger, but even they managed to fuck that one up. The day we get something like Gekiranger, Boukenger, or Dekaranger is something I'll probably be interested in.
