The only Gundam that didn't give me cancer.

I guess this will become another 4k production?

So who are the bad guys?

Federation or Zeon?

>>149891978
Both.

>>149887541
How soon before they reach the really retarded parts of the manga?

>>149891978
Of course Zeon. Killing like 3 billion or more people in less than a year is something that the Federation cannot topple, even if they had colonies full of baby-rape farms.
And it wouldn't surprise me if Zeon already had bigger and more grandiose baby-rape farms.
Because whatever evil thing the Federation might be capable of, Zeon always does it even worse and more brutal.

>>149891978
>So who are the bad guys?
>Federation or Zeon?
In UN, humanity as a whole. What happened is that for some bizarre reason, the UC universe just kept fighting the same war over and over, for almost an eternity, until humanity got knocked back into Mad Max level desperation and people start eating each other to survive. All because Sunrise couldn't let them have a different war.

Flemming is the MC we need, but not the one we deserve.

>>149892244
It's an on and off war for 30 years.

Fuck
Yes

The Feds are the good guys, least that's what I got from watching Thunderbolt.

Shame about the captain lady. Hot piece of arse Flemming will no longer get.

>>149887541
That's amazing news

>>149892493
>It's an on and off war for 30 years.
It shouldn't even be possible for the war to last that long without CHANGING to a different war. And yet, UC is stuck with Space WW2 running on repeat.

Yes, we have wars in real life that are a consequences of wars that came before, but at least there are ideological and methodology changes. UC is stuck with the same war with minor differences.

Then you completely missed the point of my post. But I guess that is normal for someone who thinks it is proper to play games during class.

There are people who actually liked that blocky as fuck thing? The reason why the show is good is the animation. I cant see anyone with a shred of taste being favor of that Gundam design.

Only seen G-reco, IBO and this.

What's this suppose to signify?

>>149893968
It's the Zeong from the original Gundam series which you should watch. Though to be precise it's the mass produced Zeong which is one of the things that makes Thunderbolt an alternate timeline UC because in the main UC continuity they never got to mass produce them.

>>149887541
Meanwhile Johnny Ridden shill not getting anime.

>>149894071
still*

>>149894071
Ridden, Matsunaga, so many Zeon aces, and what does Sunshit do? Tell Char's asinine story AGAIN. Talk about being some chickenshits, the kit sales on a Ridden-centric UC series would have bankrolled the next Gundam series alone, but those mewling clods are terrifed no one will care about UC unless Char Aznable is somehow in the picture, even if they pull a shitty Unicorn clone game to make it happen. Disgusting.

>>149893968
Watch the original and find out.

It might be shit so no high hopes for me. The series would be fine with just those 4 episodes.

Actually you are right, the FAG and Psycho Zaku wouldn't look out of place in the CE with those ridiculous backpacks.

Wait, it's a full serie?
Fuck yes. I would have been fine with 4 shorts again too but this is fantastic

What's the best subs of December Sky?

Did the drug addict commander chick die at the end? She wasn't shown in the ending scene like all the other main characters.

>>149890210
Is it? I thought it was regular UC. Is it stated to be Alternate UC or is it another case of fans crying "It doesn't fit so it's alternate"?

>>149895973
I find it to be a great design. Just not a good Gundam one.

>>149897313
Her second in command shot her before the ship exploded. How could you miss that?

>>149887541
Will the soundtrack be able to compete with season 1?

Thunderbolt S1 had one of the best OST's in years.

>>149887541
>inb4 retards won't like it, "because it's too olschool" , just like with SEED/ SEED D

>>149898652
SEED D wasn't old school, it was shit, or rather it became absolute shit after a certain point because the start still had promise.

>>149894130

I dunno, I found Ridden's manga to be COMPLETELY incomprehensible. This isn't to say it's bad, I'm just saying that I've read it forward and backward and I still don't understand what's going on.

>>149893682
I hope you know that the man who did the bulk of the gundam designs from CE was Okawara. Hirai was the sameface character designer.

>>149898278
She was shot in one of those regions that characters in movies often survive and her body drifted into space before the ship exploded. With how conveniently the shittier characters survived I don't see why she couldn't be asspulled back into the story. The writers set up for it to be possible anyway.

>>149897313
>>149898278
The space monks were doing battlefield cleanup. They apparently found and saved her somehow and now she's brainwashed by their newtype swag leader.

>>149897512
If you squint and ignore some stuff like the heavy redesigns (and they are redesigns and not variants, same model number and everything) and out of place tech like the e-pack (distinctly different from the E-cap) then it mostly fits. In an interview the author straight up says he got permission to write whatever the hell he wanted without worrying about how well it fit the UC setting and that while writing he changes or adds whatever details he wants with it.

Ridden's manga is basically:
>At the end of oyw the chimera corps was formed of oldtype and augmented human aces as an anti newtype unit.
>Chimera corps had this badass baseship that could design and shit out nrw ms parts within a few days.
>At the end of the war they fucked off and hid the ship while johnny got badly injured covering their escape and wound up with amnesia.
>Years later several major factions are trying to get their hands on the ship both because it is a possible treasure trove of ms tech that has yet to be rediscovered and because it contains a biological superweapon in the form of a plant that can overgrown and spread so aggressively it can quickly render colonies uninhabitable.
>The man favored to be the next EF president feels that all these conflicts in uc are caused by leftover resentment from the early colonists being lower class forced into space.
>He wants the super weapon to pull a reverse cca by forcing everyone back to earth so they can make a fresh start at expanding into space.

>>149891978
Both and neither. In UC, there's no black and white. Just different shades of gray.

Zeon as an organization often has noble goals, they just get fucked over by evil/extremist leaders who do terrible things in the name of said goal or are just using the organization to amass power for themselves.

Agreed. Zeon Zum Deikun had very noble goals and wanted to settle things with Earth diplomatically, but the Zabis arranged for his murder to make a martyr of him and start the One Year War in the first place to suit their own power hungry goals.

Neither side is really good or evil, but fuck the Zabis, and fuck the Titans.

>titans dont get enough credit for being dicks.

What? They are known as THE dicks of early UC. They just had sexy uniforms and kickass ms designs.

And why post rezel when discussing titans?

Also, ECOAS is the true bro-tier uc faction.

>>149901227
they just werent talked about enough in the later series is all.

>>149901335
Probably because the gryps war was immediately followed by the neo zeon war which took all the attention and the EF sort of swept the whole titans thing under the rug and ignores it. They also didn't use titans ms much afterwards either and adopted the AEUGs stuff in bigger numbers instead.

Basically the titans were one big embarrassment for the EF that they tried to distance themselves from.

>>149901491
thats probably it then. still havent finished watching Zeta

The thing I'm most worried about is if the plot will make any sense.
Thunderbolt S1 was a hypercondensced adaptation, very little explaining, which isn't really needed when using the One Year War as backdrop. The rest of the manga has an all-new conflict and faction that I don't think can be handled in the same way or with the same quality.

One of the things I like the most about Thunderbolt was it show don't tell approach to the characters motivations and backstories, but I don't know if they can keep that up when moving to a story with more new political information, not just character drama inside a well known conflict.
