Is this the empty toilet stall I've been looking for?

Oh I think the women thing was about how war preys on the vulnerable which is why so many young girls were conned into become cyber newtypes by charming, predatory men. That's fine but I don't think you had to go back to that idea so often!

What will I watch next? If it's a Gundam I'll post about it here but if it's literally anything else I probably won't. I didn't intend to post this much about Gundam but I enjoyed HIM'EL's live Gundam posts on twitter and wanted to do the same. It was fun! Thanks for reading if you did <3

Final grades: loved MGS and ZZ. Zeta was great but made me feel bad so I like it a little less. Still good though! Char's Counterattack the most fun for mech fights but not a satisfying cap to the whole journey. Forgot to mention it's boring in the middle, too.

But there were triumphs and strong ideals being expressed and won. There were some things to laugh with and at. There were some sick ass mech fights and astounding art. Even with the big episode count this was a fast-paced, exciting experience all the way through and I'm glad I made the push!

There were some quality issues that I either briefly or just didn't call out with these posts. There was some bad animation but who can say what conditions this was all made under. Some frustrating character conflicts that felt chaotic in nature. No idea what the show was going for with it's women.

So this is the end of my main quest when it comes to UC Gundam. Was it worth it? It was often cynical and tragic. A lot of the time people died horribly. For nothing or for lies or for loving bad people and becoming that themselves. It's hard to endure 150 episodes and a movie of that.

It would kind of be perfect if Char didn't just explaining his feeling about Lalah. He sees her as a mother? Ok? And Amuro's last words are like "Lalah as a mother?" And then boom! It's over! All these episodes and all this time and this is our final moment with Amuro and it's fucken weird and bad.

So after a very exciting movie that sees many characters die dramatically Amuro and Char's final, emotional moment serves to save the world. Amuro and dozens of mobile suits work together to prevent a destroyed Axis piece from hitting the planet. ALL dying in the process!

Char's overall goal is rid Earth of all people and all chance of people but causing global nuclear winter. The old theme of people being pulled by Earth's gravity. Earth's citizens are greedy and uncaring of the free hearts of spacenoids. That kinda thing. Amuro says killing billions is bad. Agree!

Quite a lot of new characters but who cares they almost all get wiped out. In Quess we have another crazy, vulnerable Newtype. She seems to be a vehicle for our characters to talk about Lalah. Lalah is at the heart of the Char/Amuro beef, right up until the final moments. And that's where it got odd

I watched Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack.

For me, a let down as the end of Amuro and Char's stories. In particular Amuro. I do have positives! As a movie the huge upgrade in animation and sound quality makes it worthwhile on its own. Good mech fights mean automatic passing grade.

So... my goal was to watch Mobile Suit Gundam, Zeta Gundam, MGS ZZ, and finally: Char's Counterattack. It's been a journey! It's been emotional! I can't wait to watch this movie and tie it all together! Like ZZ I've heard some negatives about CCA but we must finish the story. Thanks for reading!

Likes: characters, humor, relationships all seemed tighter this show. Lovely fashion! Mainly decent animation and more good mech designs. Judau great protag. Chara Soon. Chara Soon...

Dislikes: Confusing alliances persist in Gundam, some bad deaths (why slime Hayato?), Bright/Emary was weird.

ZZ Gundam is really good y'all! I loved it! I think as much as MSG. Really fun and genuinely funny first half entertained while a gritty and often tragic second half engaged fully. I'm still not sure what Gundam is trying to tell me about war and freedom and gravity and women exploding but it's cool

We get a few final shots of our heroes including FINALLY Kamille and Fa in each others arms. No girl worked harder for the man she loves so good for Fa! Roux and Judau also embrace as we roll credits. That was a very welcome bit of sweetness that was sorely needed after the hurtful Zeta finale.

After an exciting escape that sees an expiring Ple-Two help the Argama cut a path for Judau, we get an actual bit of denouement! Leina and Judau get a teary reunion just before he and Roux set sail for Jupiter, effectively ending their part in the Earth/space conflict.

Later, Haman and Judau finally get their 1v1 and it doesn't disappoint. Once again the energies of the (mostly) dead Newtypes with good hearts appear to help our hero power up and win the fight! They exchange ideals one final time before Haman floats away to accept her exposive fate.

But... the biggest tragedy of all, my favorite character in the whole deal Chara Soon is killed protecting Haman (and Judau, sorta) against the remaining Newtype squad. This hurt so bad dude. Her and Mashy and Emma were all my favorites and they all bit it :(

Just before Glemy's death Judau does manage to get Ple-Two away from him, though she is badly hurt when Glemy's suit explodes (that's TWO Judau little sisters Roux has endangered combating with Glemy). Roux and Elle's Gundams are destroyed but the girls lived! Yay!

Alright here we go. Decent couple of final episodes although it all happened amidst confused relationships and alliances, an apparent mainstay with Gundam. Gundam Team "joins" Haman's battle against Glemy. In the penultimate episode Glemy is killed by Roux! Nice bow on their "relationship".

There were some hard losses but I am content. Good finale!

Glemy vs. Chara is heating up and I'm expecting deaths. ALL the villains (save Haman and Glemy themselves) are out in their mobile suits. Be safe, Chara πŸ™. Team Gundam is going out as well! Be safe, Roux πŸ™

There's been talk of Mashymre being "over-enhanced" and yeah they turned this goof into pura aura. Damn. We finally have a man that's gone cyber-newtype crazy! There's been like a dozen women and I feel like this is the first dude to lose his mind to cyber enhancements.

Mineva actually wanted to be taken from Haman but Judau giver her back after Haman threatens all their lives. Almost got a 4th little sister!

The plan is to kidnap Mineva Zabi while Haman and Glemy's fleets have a cool space battle. There's a character name in the episode title so I'll let you know who died shortly :(
