In original Zeta I felt she kind of had an underwhelming presence. You could tell there was more to her and how she'd shape the political landscape but nothing really panned out. She got overshadowed by the Titans and Jovians and used as Char bait/jilted ex revenge. ZZ is where she gets a lot more interesting but also more waifu-tier.
>>
>>13515122
No, she's extremely flat and doesn't really have much personality/motivation to her character. In Zeta, she was just some unrepentantly evil bitch who Kamille hated. In ZZ, she was just around to chase after jewdough's dick and get scared.
>>
>>13515122
No. Zeta is't a terribly well written story either

No, she's very well written but most females in Gundam aren't.

Her appeal comes from her competence as a mecha pilot and how she usually won't take shit from others.

She won the war in Zeta,constantly switching sides and threatning both the Titans and AEUG.
She's a manipulative, inteligent, strong leader in Zeta who wants to use the Zabis for her own ends. She's even willing to kill Char, her former partner and "lover", for her own ends. It is hinted that she wants Char next to her for personal reasons.

In ZZ she's a lonely child that wants to rule the world together with someone who, on her eyes, is suitable to rule with. She kills herself for no reason, instead of escaping and re-organizing her troops. She becomes retarded everytime she's near Judo. One time she shoot his sister when trying to recruit him to her cause. She also ran away and cried when she saw Judo's Stand. She's horny and wants to substitute Char with some random newtype kid.Judao being a mary sue fucks up her character.
She loses half of her troops to some imbecile, low tier noble, when she's supposed to be this great leader in the eyes of her people.

How about, for once in your fucking miserable lives, one of you actually elaborates on your position and provides justification of examples of your claims instead of tossing around single sentence declarative statements.

I don't even care whether it is for or against. Just pretend, for one post, that you have something worthwhile to contribute to a conversation.
>>
>>13515591
>when she's supposed to be this great leader in the eyes of her people.

And that's precisely why she's a terrible character: she has about as much charisma as a cardboard box. Pretty much every other evil leader in early UC was more believable in their position simply because they actually got their voices out to their troops whereas she mainly sat there doing nothing.

Because whatever proper discussions that can be had has already happened. This is a very old show, in case you didn't realize. Proper justifications has been way too many times in the past. It only seem like it never happened to you because you're new and won't get the frustration of seeing the same shit for the 100th time.

And of course for shits like you bitching about there being not justifications for the 100th time.

She did waste a lot of time with Mashmyre,so i guess she probably hanged out with the others in command in order to gain their loyalty.
Haman was probably seen as a manipulative,cold bitch who was only using Mineva by most of the soldiers. It doesn't help that she never allowed people to get close, so in return they became scared of her.

I think she's always a pretty good character. She is a good example of a waifu tier character (fleshed out in ZZ and comics) who is a badass most of the time (how she's seen in Zeta and still seen most places). Deep down she is pure as snow like Lalah though.

Next you'll try Dianna totally isn't dying despite her saying her body is weak from being frozen all the time and she wants to spend the time she has left on earth (it's when they are running to go find out about the dark history in the cryo ball things). Yep she totally had that cane for fun!

Yea, while she's in tears. Before her heads off to live alone with another woman he spends the majority of the series with and who's wearing a wedding band she never has in the entire rest of the show. And then Sochie throws away the one remaining possession of his she has while screaming and crying. So convincing.

Will Game never gives her a ring, she never says she's weak or that she's dying and the entire population of the Moon are regularly frozen. In fact I can post a screencap of the conversation you're thinking Off in an hour or so to show you that you're wrong if you want. She didn't have a cane for fun, she had it cause it was snowing.

What other lies do you have?

>Yea, while she's in tears

Oh it's like they are being separate while in love and that makes her sad. I like how being sad now means characters aren't in love

>In fact I can post a screencap of the conversation you're thinking Off in an hour or so to show you that you're wrong if you want

>"while I was asleep for much of it, this body of mine has been alive for hundreds of years. Therefore, I can't be quite as energetic as you, Miss Kihel. I wanted to return and live out the rest of my life, up till my death"
This is just after her breathing very deeply after a bit of running and sounding like she is gonna have a heart attack. She literally says her body is hundreds of years old and is too weak to keep up

You can't even remember her getting the ring and think she married Loran despite them sleeping in different beds. Just give up
>>
>>13522690

Oh hey, you found the right conversation. And then butchered it to make it suit your argument, leaving out the fact she clarifies that she wants to live out a normal lifespan the same as anyone else. She never says she's weak there, only that she's not fit. She also doesn't sound even close to a heart attack.

Oh, and you also ignored the fact the entire population if the Moon regularly goes in to cryogenic sleep and the show outright confirms it.

How convenient.
>>
>>13522706
>And then butchered it to make it suit your argument,
No that is literally it word for word. Lifespan is never said, the best you have is she says she wants to age and die. In fact she brings up death a lot in this bit, seems to be on her mind. I wonder why, it's almost like she knows that she doesn't have much time left or something

> She never says she's weak there
> this body of mine has been alive for hundreds of years. Therefore, I can't be quite as energetic as you, Miss Kihel.
What do you think this means apart from my body is hundreds of years old so is weak? She very clearly blames her body being 100 years old for her not being energetic, not a lack of gains

>the Moon regularly goes in to cryogenic sleep and the show outright confirms it.
And you ignored that she has done it many times which is why her body is fucked

What's this, the stuff you said isn't there is actually there? What a shock. And she talks about aging gradually and dying like any normal person? Well, I mean, maybe she just means that that's a wish of hers? Except that's not true either, since she doesn't talk about it in a wistful manner, but in a matter of fact way and expresses a desire to share that same experience with other Moonrace people too. Unless you think she's going to murder some Moonrace folks to give them an early death too.

All she means is that she lacks energy. I lack energy too anon. It's not because I'm hundreds of years old and dying - it's because I don't work out much. And neither does she, given that she's a state figurehead who's actions are normally controlled by several other people like Agrippa, including when she goes in and out of cryosleep.

I'll make a seperate thread and post up a big effort thing with lots of other stuff to refute it in a while though, so as we're not shitting up this Haman thread.

>All she means is that she lacks energy.I lack energy too anon. It's not because I'm hundreds of years old and dying
She clearly says
>this body of mine has been alive for hundreds of years.
>THEREFORE
>I can't be quite as energetic as you, Miss Kihel.
It is very clearly blamed on her weak old body. Again this body is old THEREFORE I can't be energetic

>I'll make a seperate thread

>>
>>13522885

> How is it not word for word when I wrote what she said?

It's not word for word if you leave out part of the exact same speech. The other two sentences are part of the same thing she's saying to Kihel and you left them off, which is editing it for your own purposes and thus not word for word.

> I even talk about the next bit in that last post.

You talked about it in the vaguest terms and act as if it changes nothing, when it actually does.

> In fact I don't have to address any of what you said as I talk about it there

You don't have to if you don't want to, but you didn't address what I was saying really.

> Your argument is bollocks and based on how you think she says stuff

And yours is different? You interpret "I don't have quite as much energy as you" as "Kihel, I'm dying". Which isn't actually what she's saying or even close to it. All she says is that she's older and not as energetic. Which means, at the worst, she's older and not as energetic.

Also, 3 episodes later Kihel muses that it's more to do with the different hardships they have each endured and Harry thinks that Kihel herself is becoming less energetic despite never going in to cryosleep. Oh, and then we have Corin who's been in and out of cryosleep for thousands of years, going back to before the advent of the Moonrace and yet he has no issues with energy - only mental issues. And he's the most physically fit person in the show.

How could they retrieve a ring when he never gives her one? Here, here's his "proposal". Notice he doesn't actually propose. He says he will propose when he gets back and she says she'll accept but he never actually proposes, he never gives her a ring and he never returns so she never gets one. She's not wearing a ring at any point during the arc, she never retrieves one and she never throws one away because she never received one in the first place. She's not even wearing one during the present at any point outside of the epilogue.

Unless you're going to dig up a picture of the ring you can stop trying to pretend it exists because it doesn't.
>>
Are people actually deluded enough to believe Loran and Dianna are engaged at the end of Turn A? They never once act like a couple, Loran has the same platonic reverence for her he had since the start of the series.
>>
>>13527453
Oh, so you've never seen the show. Good to know.
>>
>>13528144

People in series are deluded enough to pass comment on it on a couple of occasions. He starts the series showing reverence for he, he finishes the series being respectful but talking to her as an equal, and she him. Let's also not forget that while he white knights the hell out of her, she literally does the exact same for him. It is far from a one way street in that regard. Not to mention that the two of them share a mutual understanding of each others motives and desires at any given time, much more so than any other two people in the series. Even without newtype powers.

Oh, and she's wearing a ring on the correct finger of the correct hand to be an engagement ring in the finale. And never had one outside that moment in the entire show. So yea, that helps too.

It's not like this'd even be the first time that Tomino wrote two people to be a couple in the finale of a show without much build-up even if you want to ignore the build up in the actual show itself. Remember the end of ZZ? Yea. No-one questions that Judau and Roux end up together regardless of how little build up it had in the show.

Character design, maybe also her VA.

She's a weak character with nothing really resembling an arc. She had that thing with abandoning the Argama for a completely inane reason I can't remember outside the impression of stupidity. Something relating to Judau and his skill.
