Why isn't Blue Gender ever discussed on /m/? Seems to be an underrated late 90's anime to me and I love Marlene's character. Seem's like it fits the mecha genre too with how the Armored Shrikes operate.

It gets discussed every now and then. I generally hear that the mech and monster designs were cool, but after they get to space and especially the ending, the plot kinda meandered.
>>
>>15619679
Because "Blue" is a color, not a gender.

I'm about 10 or so episodes into Zeta (and have somehow managed to remain spoiler free except for parts of the ending to Char's Counterattack, so please keep that in mind). Are the sociopolitical ideologies of Zeon or Earth Federation ever further defined?

As far as I can tell, Zeon is made up of spacenoids who believe that their unique status should grant them sovereignty from earth, while the Federation believes that spacenoids are simply colonists within their domain.

Is this because having their ideologies well defined would lead to viewers naturally sympathizing with one or the other, taking away from the theme of how shitty war in general is?

Nothing super specific is ever really said. Vaguely, the Federation has economic domination over the colonies and all of the rich people live on Earth. A bunch of the colonies get upset and decide they want to be an independent power. The spacenoid supremacy/Newtype stuff is kind of a sidenote to attract people to the cause.

>Zeon is made up of spacenoids who believe that their unique status should grant them sovereignty from earth
Zeon boils down to a couple of things: They were considered a lesser territory by the Federation and were required to provide economic relief to Earth. Heavy taxation and no representation (if this sounds familiar, it should.) There was also a small addition that Zeon Deikun in some versions of pre-OYW Zeon lore believed that spacenoids were becoming Newtypes.

Of course, the Federation thought that all of the above was a bunch of bullshit and that Zeon Deikun and his movement was a bunch of horseshit. Unfortunately for everybody, the Zabi family agreed with the Federation, except for that rebellion part.

>Is this because having their ideologies well defined would lead to viewers naturally sympathizing with one or the other
I can't really refute this. To a point, I'm not sure it's necessarily to go deep into why the Federation and Zeon felt the way they did, because the story is focused more on the results and the characters than the politics.

>Zeon is made up of spacenoids who believe that their unique status should grant them sovereignty from earth, while the Federation believes that spacenoids are simply colonists within their domain.
Okay....here we go:
According to narration, 9 of the 11 billion members of the human race live in colonies just before the OYW. That means only 2 billion people on Earth. Side 7 was only one colony cylinder, so those 9 billion people was divided between the 6 Sides. We know they didn't all have the same population, but if you consider that the total population means an average of 1.5 billion in each Side, so Earth only had half a billion more than the average Side.

Then there's the structure of the government. The EF Assembly is a democratically elected body, but it's an assembly of, by, and for Earth. There are more districts (and therefore Assemblymen) on earth than all of the Sides put together. So even if all 9 billion people in the Sides voted "Yes" on something, the representatives of the 2 billion people on earth outnumber them in terms of Assembly votes. Even worse is the fact that the representatives of each of the colonies are assigned by the Assembly, and live on earth, rather than being elected by the colonies from their own citizens. So basically colonists had absolutely no say in the government despite being the vast majority of the human race. Also the old men in Mobile Suit Gundam said that the first few waves of colonists were relocated to the colonies *against their will*.

Battroid mode is not exclusively meant for the ground.

Come to think of it, the very YF-29 you posted never even touched solid ground at any point outside of a hanger, if I'm not mistaken.

It's function is closer to a mobile suit; full 360 degree mobility in a vacuum and top maneuverability and attitude control in a gravity well. Ground combat functionality as an all-terrain vehicle is merely a happy side-effect of battroid mode.

Also, there's the issue of fighter mode being a...well, fighter, and thus limited in engagement options of ground targets whereas gerwalk allows the pilot a more practical close-range means of attack, and battroid opens the pilot up to various tactical maneuvers an infantry might take, such as taking cover behind an abandoned building, or just shooting a sumbitch up-close with maximum precision, not to mention the melee options if all else fails.

Was there a reason why Jamitov Hymen disliked the whole Gundam Project during Operation Stardust? With his intention of ruling earth through the Titans later on wouldn't the Gundams be an icon of power? Or was Anaheim Electronics just greedy cunts that costs were expensive for them? I understand that Lt Cima received the Gerbera later and as a token of defecting and if she survived she'd obviously be adopted into the Titans

Wasn't that just because the main characters wouldn't stop disobeying orders and fucking up their plan?

The Gundam image and its psychological effects were intentionally utilized by the Titans.

Yes, everything after the OYW was Anaheim fault because they live out of everyone else's misery during a war.

Is it really so bad that I liked AGE? it's not as if I think it's good, or even decent, but it had a lot concepts that I really enjoyed like the generation aspect, even if it wasn't done well.

I thought after a few years that I'd at least be able to talk about it but it still feels like it gets universally shit on everywhere.

A while ago I made a thread asking about some always-unsourced claims regarding Tomino self-identifying as a feminist and got nothing. Instead I found some statements he made in 1993 that were almost like MRA commentary.

Well after more searching because I find this subject interesting I came across what appeared to be some Japanese statements about Tomino reading some feminist critique of his work but I'm not exactly sure what they're saying (I'm garbage at Japanese and mostly using Google Translate, which is obviously crap) and I'm curious what they're saying and if they're more than rumors.

>that were almost like MRA commentary.
no they weren't, he sounded like any old man complaining about his wife
>>
While googling I found two posts in some way linking Tomino to Japanese feminist critic Minako Saito, someone who seems insanely obscure in the anglosphere and who I can find no detailed English information about.

First there is this 17 year old thread about female portrayals in Tomino works http://ebi.2ch.net/shar/kako/971/971775850.html which has this post that I think is saying that... Tomino read this book she wrote https://www.amazon.co.jp/%E7%B4%85%E4%B8%80%E7%82%B9%E8%AB%96%E2%80%95%E3%82%A2%E3%83%8B%E3%83%A1%E3%83%BB%E7%89%B9%E6%92%AE%E3%83%BB%E4%BC%9D%E8%A8%98%E3%81%AE%E3%83%92%E3%83%AD%E3%82%A4%E3%83%B3%E5%83%8F-%E3%81%A1%E3%81%8F%E3%81%BE%E6%96%87%E5%BA%AB-%E6%96%8E%E8%97%A4-%E7%BE%8E%E5%A5%88%E5%AD%90/product-reviews/4480036660 and tried to talk to her about getting feedback for his work? And she refused so he got mad? I dunno, as I said running it through Google Translate is a mess as expected, if anyone who can properly read moonrunes can help I'd be grateful
