A newly developed weapon sword from Neofaria, its prototype No. 1 modified version.

It is equipped with a propulsion system called “SE Drive,” a provisional space particle disappearance control system known as the “SE Generator,” and collectively referred to as the SE System.

The SE system becomes a weapon of mass destruction that utilizes the Tyrant’s body itself.

By concentrating and releasing the energy of the field that propels the craft at a single point in front, the distortions of gravity and magnetic fields, along with the collapsing energy of space itself, engulf the enemy and annihilate an entire fleet.

It is said that when the SE system was used, it resembled a sword of light manipulated by the invisible hand of a god.

Former ace of the Earth Federation’s frontier defense fleet MS unit.

Due to their personality, they may lack composure, but their skills are top-notch.

When a potential holder of the ability called “Next One” awakens their ability, the Tyrant also reveals its true form.

Is it a one-person MAP weapon situation?

Is this MS?

Not a mobile suit, but a sword.

Was it an era where we couldn’t do anything other than Gundam…?

>>6

In the sense of using existing MS as a stepping stone, it’s something that can only be done with Gundam…

An easy-to-understand Mary Sue dark history.

There were a lot of this kind of thing in the ’80s…

I feel the planetary assault force.

The machine called the Slave Sword was developed as part of this, and it is an unmanned vehicle controlled by the pilot of the Tyrant.

Therefore, the operator of the Tyrant is required to have a capability called Next One.

This is considered a new type of subspecies or variant, characterized by an outstanding ability to communicate with machine systems or artificial intelligence.

The pilot must function as the system’s headquarters.

In the final phase of the “SE plan,” the envisioned setup included one Tyrant serving as the vanguard with powerful weaponry, accompanied by three Pachecphalo, two Apat for rear support, one Iktheon with enhanced reconnaissance capabilities for information gathering, and two Slave units to guard the Tyrant.

These unmanned auxiliary weapons form a single unit with four types, consisting of eight machines.

If this system is completed, it is assumed that the sword will become a military force comparable to all MS in the Earth sphere.

Why did Neo-Faria and Sword disappear?

The reason is here.

This was clearly inspired by the protagonist of Crossbone Gundam: Ghost.

“Stolen…? It should be ‘picked up the setting,’ choose your words wisely.”

Belzelga Testarossa is also part of this lineage, but in the world of Armored Trooper VOTOMS, it feels like they could create something like that.

Don’t leave something like this to a pilot who lacks composure.

I’m scared that some mistake will cause HG to come out.

Which is stronger, Freedom II or Proud Defender?

It says that if you point the jet thrust forward, it will have incredible power, but if you do that, won’t you get blown away backwards with tremendous force?

The Tyrant Sword has decimated the Messerra unit and inflicted damage on Jupiter as well, so Shirocco has returned to the Earth Sphere! How was it!

I unconsciously altered the generation vector of the Tyrant’s SE field and unleashed it upon the swarm of Messara.

The SE field concentrated around the chest area of the tyrant turned into a flash of light, sucking in the swarm of Messala with immense impact.

Consumed by the torrent of energy, the Messara unit was annihilated in an instant.

The aftermath extends even to Jupiteris over there.

And I had completely forgotten myself in the face of the Tyrant’s unforeseen, overwhelming destructive power.

Jupitris separated the destroyed unit and vanished into the distant outer space.

Having lost the majority of his available forces due to this battle, Paptimus Scirocco will attempt to approach the Titans.

It is reported that afterwards, Neo-Faria was dismantled, and the confiscated swords and related materials were disposed of in absolute secrecy.

Additionally, at that time, the SES development manager, Dr. Neina Raffitt Firm, went missing just before the dismantling of Neo-Faria.

And then, I was sent back to the military and deployed to the front lines again.

I want to compete because the guys who left my place are having a blast doing Sentinel!!

Sentinel and Advance of Z have had their issues, but they’re more contained compared to Tyrant Sword.

I think it’s a style of Fujita Kazuki, like in the story of Belzelgar, where he does whatever he wants because it’s parallel.

ANIMECAN TALKING

Wolf: “This month’s letter is from Hideyuki Fujiyama in Katsushika Ward.”

“Who would have thought that the star of Zeon would come to an end…?”

For a moment, I was at a loss for words.

If the world of mobile suits ends up as nothing more than a set of toys for hopelessly difficult children in the TV series (specifically Z and ZZ), then even the soldiers of the One Year War will not find peace…

I’m glad and relieved that you immediately came up with a new project involving mobile suits here.

In any case, I look forward to it in the future.

“However, I would be happy if it could be made into a story with a strong character, much like those by Mr. Makoto Kobayashi, rather than just following the TV series like the story of the Zions star.”

“I ‘Tyrant Sword,’ is a story set in a parallel world based on the settings of the TV series.”

Wolf: “It seems that the mobile suit settings are quite different from the established ones.”

“I think the MS system, or rather the mechanical world, will be strongly reflected in the work of Mr. Kazuki Fujita.”

>>24

Do you do this kind of thing…?

AOZ1 also had a super weapon (Inre) that could change the course of the war, but due to a command from the boss, the protagonist destroyed it, and it ended without becoming widely known. So, Tyrant Sword is pretty much the same.

To be honest, I’d like to read it a bit now, so can you do something about it, Sunrise?

>>28

Haven’t we re-released it recently?

At that time, only twisted younger guys or old men would go out of their way to write letters to model magazines as Gundam fans.

Cyber comic-style free-for-all, the Universal Century Gundam side story is good, isn’t it…

This side is the one that becomes material.

Not being a topic of conversation is “For the Barrel.”

>>31

Isn’t it just a joke that there are multiple Char clones because the details aren’t written on Wiki?

I’m putting it in the form of a parallel and outrageous book to do as I please, so please understand that.

>>32

I like it better when it’s this far out because I can accept it as parallel!

It’s no good to be half-hearted.

>>32

Is it really necessary to make comments like “the main story’s MS can’t compete”?!

>>44

It’s the masturbation of middle-aged men who have developed a case of “chūnibyō.”

>>49

I was only 22 back then!

>>59

I don’t want to be a 22-year-old like this even at 22.

>>44

There is.

If you don’t declare that you’re about to do something childish now,

I like mechanical design, though.

Well, honestly, from the perspective of another Universal Century, I have a feeling I would like to see something like this again.

Even Camille, once he had a mental breakdown, finally received sympathetic opinions to the extent that the 1st series was deified, and opposing opinions were sent in after Z, including from Hobby Japan.

>>35

Well, I understand the feeling of thinking that the protagonist ended like that!?

I really think the design of the sword machines is cool, so I’m hoping someone can somehow modernize it and bring it to life in three dimensions.

>>36

The Tyrant Sword is really cool, you know.

To pretend to be Kibayashi with the Dije SER, you need the Tyrant Sword.

It’s amazing how you can nonchalantly mock and belittle Zeta on the pages of a magazine, even though you’re being fed.

>>41

What Fujita is disparaging is not Z but ZZ.

Kotobuki was complaining about kids like Judau and Beecha from ZZ.

>>43

Well, even Zeta was quite harshly criticized in unnecessarily roundabout phrases within their long series of self-aware articles…

ZZ starts like a kids’ anime, but I feel like those who were really into things like MSV and virtual war stories at the time would probably have a negative reaction to it.

>>46

Sales were already declining from the point of Z, to begin with.

Did the ZZ revitalization route change go well? Find out for yourself.

>>46

The military-themed world settings created by MSV, which had fans going wild at the time, are completely disregarded in both Z and ZZ.

From the perspective of Sunrise and the director, it’s a setting that was created without their knowledge, so there’s really nothing they can say other than “I don’t know.”

>>60

In the end, people who like MSV are just those who see the revolutionary existence of MS in the world and smile while looking at the mechanical settings and numbers.

I’m not the slightest bit interested in the Universal Century itself.

>>74

It is the nonsense of MSV haters.

>>74

The people who believed in the 1st MSV at the time were just replacing elements of robust fictional war stories involving old men piloting tanks or aircraft with mobile suits, so what targeted that was the Zeon of the star that was done before the Tyrant Sword.

Well, a more amazing Gundam has come out, so it’s good.

No, that’s not good either.

Ah, I wonder if it’s going to be okay (anxious).

In an era where the designs of Z Gundam and Mk-II are being appreciated, you’re running ahead all on your own. Everyone else won’t be able to keep up.

“I’ll get scolded by the readers.”

“It’s okay, it’s okay. As the industry’s first industrial designer (this is true), I have no choice but to keep moving forward.”

Well, anyway, “Tyrant” is strong.

If MS is considered a WWII propeller fighter, it’s as strong as an F-14.

“Even the ZZ (Double Zeta) is strong enough that it won’t last 5 seconds after contact.”

“AHAHAHA (laughter). But the fact that we can’t fully address those setting aspects is a problem.”

A vast amount of literary and technical data.

MS also can’t seem to release everything…

“There’s no way we’re getting something like ‘Gablay Jupiter’ or ‘Bialar’.”

“Ah, Mita, Giga, and Sam too…”

Kotobuki was probably aware of how painful things were related to V-Gun as well…

Is it really that Mr. Fujita likes creating machines from a different dimension that can’t compete with existing ones?

It’s a strange era where industry people casually criticize anyone and everyone with a cynical attitude.

You can just delete it as a reward.

If we hadn’t purposefully brought out the painful parts, things would have gone smoothly afterwards…

>>58

If it goes smoothly, that’s the problem!

Makoto Kobayashi worked on a giant artificial brain with Hermès and Blau-Bro in the 1990s.

The serialized model magazine had a vibe of being shocked and whatever, but it was probably due to the underdeveloped state of the internet.

>>61

Regardless of whether the internet is underdeveloped or not, I thought it was scary that an article on Solomon Express was written as if a conspiracy theory claimed that he was controlling the Gundam industry.

>>61

By the time of Solomon Express, the internet had already developed long ago, and it was being casually joked about and taken aback by it, right?

Criticism is probably important, but when it starts to undermine something that has become your livelihood to a level that isn’t even real criticism, it gives off a strong sense of self-importance.

>No.1286953422

Wow, that’s something…

It’s fine, after all, it’s a monster designed with Ζ at the age of 20.

Here, we have designed the Messara Dino Faust of the Sirocco for the sneakers of Novel Z.

I probably like casually releasing something I like, like a Digé SE-R that resembles a Digé Sword, in a Z-MSV special magazine. Fujita.

The settings are so out there that the game developers definitely don’t align the parallel settings with model magazine themes.

>>68

I feel like the slight differences in the settings of the card game and such, whether they picked up or ignored the SE system, are done on purpose.

What do you mean sword? Don’t make a fool of the mobile suit!

Is Solomon Express not well-known or something?

When talking about GQuuuuuuX, there are sometimes people who try to mislead you into thinking that its settings are Tomino’s notes or initial settings.

Isn’t it obvious that you can’t do something like having a ridiculously large brain like Hermes or the initial settings in anime?

>>73

It’s more like to mislead.

I think they are just people who want to brag about knowing things to newcomers.

If that leads to misunderstandings, it’s a problem.

It seems that even though the source of “Brain Hermes” is clear, people think it can be passed off just by rubbing it.

Regarding Shirocco, it has been added to the canon that during Valpurgis, there was actually a prototype-like Angel Halo called Psycho-Flare created to brainwash humanity before Z.

It feels like that guy has finally caught up to the outrageous level of the Tyrant Sword.

Aggress vs. Unicorn

I wish Kobayashi wouldn’t do the original reason for flying in the sky at the main house.

When I look back at Z and ZZ again, I really feel that they are amazing works.

It was a work that younger kids, including my past self, wouldn’t understand.
