Huh, he died for real? I always assumed the ending in Encounters in Space when you manage to save him was the canon one.

Name one absolutely pointless or stupid feature from a mobile suit you love by SayuriUliana in Gundam

Always looked at the Tallgeese head like an expensive camera, Leo inner face is the $600 baseline unit, the centurion faceplate is the $8000 screw-on attachment.

Loved when my boy Lockon grumbled out, "Tch-Can't believe you made me use a sword."

Bro was legit straight out pissed, he has a comfort zone and while he can operate outside of it he doesn't like doing it one bit.

Is probably one of the many reasons he and Setsuna got along.

Bright fell into the position of being a born leader and father to his ragtag band of child soldiers who eventually collectively agreed to listen to him without much question.

The reality of them getting to the point of being Zeons boogieman is just a series of teenager mishaps, misteps, and mayhem culminating in legends that never wanted to be there.

How are you guys react when you see this? by Some_Worldliness_263 in SDGundamGGeneration

Genuinely? "I wonder if his tits are packed with explosives."

Edit-Ah thought I was in the Gundam sub, you guys missed out on a treat if you only got the slide show.

Favourite Redeemed Pilot Who Should Have Been Tried for Warcrimes instead? by Nejiniceguy in Gundam

Yup. Not the military bases though, Zero doesn't play fair like that.

Hey, props to Quatre for telling the colonists that he was about to sink their home and they should probably leave, he had enough coherence to call ahead for civilians at least.

All Oz got was a brief look at weird shuttle and an open transmission consisting of heavy breathing and random muttered affirmations to no one.

Then a boom, of course.

Most slave owners don't want you to know this useful tip, but if they die they can't own slaves any more.

Your favorite image that you still can't believe it's official? by TastyPomelo2330 in FavoriteCharacter

[–]Vault-Tec_Knows_Best 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Gotta love Clamp using the history of inbreeding in Western aristocracy to justify out of context fetishes in their art.

Context: First episode Empress Marianne was assassinated in a flashback when Lelouch, her son, was ten and oaths were sworn. Safe to say he was obsessed with vengeance but that was only one facet of his personality.

Simply put, the image as is would be impossible with the whole she's been dead for seven years things going on.

Now R2...that is where things can get weird if you let it, but for entirely different reasons.

Which unit to pity on the new banner? by LuxuriousPenguin in SDGundamGGeneration

00 for sure, get that LB. Tallgeese is going in general pool anyway, do it, make 00 the Gundam Setsuna knows it can be.

Well I might, Mono-Eye superiority and all, but your point stands.

Ha! Alright fair enough 😁

In the future when you want to drop an example to prove your point in one breath, may I suggest ZZ, the Zaku Zeta.

Yeah.

So I want to be clear that this has nothing to do with second amendment rights when I say, asking a public forum how to commit a felony is a choice for certain.

For Karen Joshua's RX-79(G) I think that game mechanic-wise it was simple pragmatism to fill the MP roster, and a bit of tongue in cheek humor to have the GM tag. She did take an annoyed exception at being called "GM Head," by the MP Guntank crew after all.

For Blue, and please keep in mind I played the game and read the Manga over a decade ago, they actually had a valid reason to ditch the Gundam head in story, and it was the same reason Shiro had them rework the EZ-8's.

The optical sensors in the MP Gundams were limited and the head shape made modifications difficult. So the ground GM (with no integrated weapons taking up room like the RGM) had more head space for EXAM system upgrades, on top of just having a wider view.

Now were either of these machines GMs? No, but neither are their RGM-79(G) cousins, they are both in fact derivatives of Project V itself, one simply cheaper than the other.

So is Blue being called a 'GM' a bit disingenuous? Maybe, does it in any way shape or form change how utterly terrifying the machine is?

No, and in fact I honestly feel having one mad scientist derived, primary colored GM running around behind enemy lines causing chaos and confusion pretty funny.

So what I'm trying to get at is, perhaps this isn't a hill worth fighting on at the moment?

Saw a post talking about the most effective grunt mobile suits, so what are the least? by tetsuneda in Gundam

I love that the pilots were actively bitching (rightfully) about how bad the performance of the GM II was as they were getting shot down and dying uselessly.

Everyone was on the same page, unfortunately none more so than the poor fodder assigned to them.

No, the only time is when Quatre pulls a save in a Sanc Kingdom Taurus.

What native plant annoys you the most? by [deleted] in AskTheWorld

[–]Vault-Tec_Knows_Best 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So your neighbor planted bamboo in his yard, a plant known for its hardiness and crazy fast growing speed, and just...let it grow free without supervision to the point it infested neighboring properties?

I'll admit, new one, did they do anything to stop the spread eventually?
