Just finished this show and I have some questions:
>why was Bright such a loser in this show?
>where was Char the whole time?
>why was Judau so asexual to reject the two best UC girls, ple and haman?
>how did Mondo's love interest die when none of the debris hit her?
>what does "anime je nai (it's not anime)" mean within the series framework?
>>
>>15865125
>why was Bright such a loser in this show?
Because he's sick and tired of everyone's bullshit

>where was Char the whole time?
Plotting to kill Amuro because muh Lalah

>why was Judau so asexual to reject the two best UC girls, ple and haman?
Because he knows better than to stick his dick in crazy.

>how did Mondo's love interest die when none of the debris hit her?
Because the Universal Century needed it's blood sacrifice for the episode.

>what does "anime je nai (it's not anime)" mean within the series framework?
It's not anime, it's a toy commercial.

Please don't have this opinion, Puru is a nightmare character made with the worst intentions. She's named for a lolicon magazine and her background lore is Joy Division Body Horror.

>>15865125
>how did Mondo's love interest die when none of the debris hit her?
When he jumped on her to "protect" her he basically knocked her down onto hard concrete and the sidewalk cracked her skull.
Mondo immediately went into denial about having accidentally killed his own girlfriend, screaming about how it was that rich guy's fault. Everyone else saw how crazy he really is and is afraid to tell him that it was actually him that killed Rasara/Sarasa (i don't care which one it was) because they're afraid he might "protect" them next.
>>
>>15865390
They saw how Mondo fried the guy. Beam saber directly into the cockpit. You don't want to mess with that.

That's some incredibly retarded bullshit. Rasara jumped on Mondo to protect him, not the other way around. The debris missing her is just a blatant animation error.

Reminder that pic related is how one of the few survivors of the Gryps Conflict and the first Neo Zeon War gets killed in CCA.

I didn't realize he was killed when I watched it the first time. CCA is such a shitty movie.
>>
>>15865125
>what does "anime je nai (it's not anime)" mean within the series framework?
In order to be canon, it needs to be anime. By not being anime. It's not canon.
>>
>>15868228
The first i watched it i thought Chan killed him when she took off in the ReGZ. I was fucking livid.

I pretend that he survived somehow.
He might have been a glorified extra but still, surviving Zeta is a feat.
Who else made it out alive other than first tier characters?
Argama's doc made it to Unicorn I think.

that was the worst part of the early episodes

Tomino is weird
>>
>>15866668
I like how ZZ is just a parade of Neo Zeon's most insane commanders, no wonder they lose every goddamn war they start.
>>
>>15868861

Kamille should have been in it, Amuro may have been Chars rival but Kamille was his Protege. it would have been a great turn to see the former pupil side with the rival to close the circle.
>>
>>15869613
Kamille would have thrown off the balance of the fight. If you threw Kamille on Char's side Amuro would have been overpowered and the battle would have been lost easily. Same if he was put on Amuro's side. The only way they could balance it was to have Judau as well. With only Kamille the plot becomes a joke where Kamille is either heavily underused to the point people are saying why was he so useless for being as powerful as he is or as stated before a steamroll happens that makes the movie uninteresting.
>>
>>15868234
>In order to be canon, it needs to be anime. By not being anime. It's not canon.
So when the OP changes in episode 26, does that mean that the second half of ZZ now counts as anime, and thus canon? The first half could be a reenactment, like the murders in episodes of America's Most Wanted. That would explain the cheesiness of the first half too.
>>
>>15868868
I just love the Mash man.
>>
>>15869613
But unlike Amoru and Char, we know from ZZ how Kamile's arc ended. I doubt after all the shit they went through that either Kamile or Fa would've wanted him back in the battlefield.
>>
>>15869751
After the Dublin arc, when they go back to space, ZZ gets even dumber than the first half so it actually doesn't explain anything.
>>
>>15865125
>I don't understand ZZ

>>
>>15870163
More Haman. Shit gets very real for a few episodes while they're in Dublin. It's funny if you can ignore how tonally abrupt it is from Zeta. More Astoniage and Torres. There's some weird middle-east freedom fighter shit if /pol/ shit entertains you. A character from 0079 makes a short but important cameo near the end of the series.

That's all I got. ZZ is fun but I don't like it that much.

>>15869435
They're a single division's worth of soldiers trying to get a do over for a war that's been over for the better part of a decade. No shit their leadership would be full of crazy people.

Nope, it's garbage through and through. People only pretend it's good because of Reddit contrarianism against Zeta.

I was really looking forward to seeing Kamille's arc wrapped up. He's got to be my favorite MC of the Gundam universe so far.

The only thing I don't understand is why it took so long to introduce the main character. Pic related.
>>
>>15871467
Kamille's arc finishes at the end of Zeta. He sacrifices his life, honoring the spirits of his fallen comrades, finally having matured past the autistic selfishness that characterized him in the early episodes.

His stuff in ZZ is interesting but sort of like surplus material.

I think ZZ would lend itself well to a series of compilation movies and would probably be much easier to digest for people who are hesitant about watching the whole series. They could even add scenes to show us what Char was up to around this time.
