Not sure if i have words for using "one more image of a dead baby away from (...)" as a genuine sentence in an argument? Do you think its being posted like a gotcha?
Thats honestly just ghoulish, especially when you also argue how you actually do care about people dying

query goes off to the internet first, it falls squarely into the territory they already monitor. Beautiful in its simplicity

actually the 'searching internet before we search ur disk' is a very sensible choice when operating under microsoft requirements. They needed a way to spy on the users, without breaking several sets of regulations. They cant 'technically' check what ur doing on ur own computer, but if every

Tho I'm honestly quite dissappinted in myself after reading thru your commentary. I missed so much
Also kinda sad that for good few months the only way I was able to engage with any art was listening to it in the background while swamped with shit

Oh absolutely, it wasn't a dig at kids media. I had a vibe of a "extended toy commercial" instead of actual art and mostly listening to it distracted, while doing uni work did not help that assumption lol

Yeah I kinda got walked into 79 expecting a kids show doing it to "read the theory" of gundam, but I might have missed a lot
Thank you and I guess I'm gonna bother u more when I'm done rewatching

okay, ive skimmed thru ur watch thread abt the og series and i watching the series in the background while doing uni work might have depraved me of some details. Might come back to this after im done rewatching i guess

Tho i am really interested in what themes u got out of it

tho id genuinely would love to hear what your takeaway was, coz i imagine it differs somewhat from mine lol

and a professional soldier laying down tens of enemies in a single engagement. Making the whole thing tonally all over the place, with some needless melodramatics thrown in for good mix

That it was a product of its time and circumstance. An early teen-oriented show with a basic message of "war bad" and a monster of the week/arc of the month vibe to the plot
With amuro flipping between a kid terrified by war and mourning every named character, running off or doing kids stuff

And thats not necessarily unrealistic, but i havent been presented with anything that would explain these actions

Also sorry i dont want to rant at u, i really appreciate the thread, just didnt really have a chance to discuss zeta with anyone

Like, my introduction to kamille is that he gets teased at school, but also has his bff by his side. He gets catcalled a few times and decides to defect to a group that to him has been so far presented as dangerous terrorists, leaving behind his whole life on whim

And on one hand kamille is presented as a child abandoned by his parents and bullied by piers, but also somehow an ace big robot pilot thats gonna end up killing hundreds of people over the full run of the thing
Even the military industrial angle isnt really shown and is more of an extrapolation

But how has it affected him actually?
Problem with the early gundam media is that they sometimes attempt to do more involved characters, but they still need to exist in a cartoon about big robots thats there mainly to sell toys

Like, i watched the original and i get why it was so influential and successful, but consistent characters with complex internal motivations it was not

But is it even Nuanced Motives TM? lol
Titans are evil to the point of ridicule, most of their tactics are just evil for the sake of being evil
And i didnt really feel Kamille had any real nuanced internal dialogue either(just fortunately less melodramatics then amuro)

It just felt so silly at the time.I dont think the titans were introduced well enough by then for it to make sense to me.I had the og federation fresh in my mind and going into this was a very deep tonal shift, with the first ep indeed making kamille look like a guy swayed by a singular mean comment

I dunno, the beginning of this just seemed so silly to me. My guy gets ragebaited, assaults a soldier for speaking mean words and then feels its unfair he gets got by the cops?

And also, namecalling is enough to betray your country? Peak gundam having kids as protagonists lol

Tho then again, im not sure but ****technically**** hong kong, unlike taiwan, is not a state, no? It was a territory of the crown and now its a weird one-state-2-systems dependent province?

I really enjoyed the original alta tbh
the SF streetrunning section was very atmospheric and i liked the feeling of actually going places within one layout
