MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM 0080 War in the Pocket
I’ll go watch the commercial for the release of the DVD and BD with that momentum.
>>1
I saw the one about not forgetting and not having forgotten.
My tear ducts have been broken again safely, and my eyes are starting to hurt a bit.
Bunny’s message to not hold any resentment or blame oneself because he only did what the Federation soldiers and Gundam pilots did is filled with various kinds of kindness and is quite touching.
Don’t cry, Al.
War will happen again.
>>3
I never thought that Nameless would still be going on about the One Year War.
The federation doesn’t have mobile suits!
I’m giving you the scrap from the fallen Zaku, so don’t cry!
Even though it’s a Gundam work, it seems densely packed, as if it were more than just six episodes, likely because it focused on character portrayal rather than mobile suits.
Of course, I like the battles with MS as well, and I think the movements of the Kampfer, Alex, and the Zaku Kai, among other MS, are cool, and the animation is flawlessly done.
>>8
I really love the battle of the Cold Jim countering the super cool Hi-Gock and Z’Gok E at the opening.
Read the novel version and be saved.
>>9
It seems that the cockpit won’t explode and there is a survival route; I’m curious about that.
If I were Al, I would tell Chris about Barney and see their reaction.
>>12
Chris seems likely to become unable to forgive himself…
I felt that keeping the outcome of Burnie’s story to myself without telling Chris until the end was truly like a war inside my pocket, and it was both heartbreaking and warm.
>>13
It’s a really small drama that doesn’t affect the overall picture of the war, but for the people who lived through it… that’s a nice way to portray it.
I think it’s excellent just as a human drama set in wartime.
Yamaga writes good scripts, doesn’t he?
Even though there are hardly any bad guys in this work.
I wonder why it turned out this way…
There are quite a few voices saying that this is the one to show to someone who has never seen Gundam before.
Don’t cry, Al.
The war will start again soon!
>>20
The Universal Century is harsh, but I want Al to live until he can fully enjoy a long life without any physical ailments.
>>20
The world of children is really small, isn’t it…
This line is really said to comfort, and if I hadn’t met Burnie, it would have been a comfort… it’s painful.
>>20
It’s really starting again so soon, isn’t it!!!
I guess the structure that can stand without Gundam was something that could only be done at that time.
I intend it in a good way, but I think it’s precisely because the storytelling can stand on its own without Gundam that the horrors of war were depicted so vividly.
I even think it could be shown in schools as a form of educational discipline for children.
Stories like this have produced an excessive monster of a writer like Otagaki.
Oh, if only that frustrating Burnie had knowledge of Earth’s dust!
If you stay in Riboh, maybe you can avoid getting caught up in such a big war…
The theme song is going to make me cry again.
>>27
I’m getting tired of crying every time I listen to it…
Distant memories are really great.
I want you to see the Poké Wars stage from G Generation Spirits or Genesis, even if it’s just in a video.
After finishing the race, I rewatched episode 6, and when Al and Barny are fixing the modified Zaku, they are so close like real brothers that I couldn’t hold back my tears.
>>33
Baanii’s mission to Rebo → It’s amazing that only 7 days (11 days if you include the day the Zaku was taken down) have passed in the final episode!
Bunny, can you defeat the Gundam…?
Piece of cake!
It’s good, isn’t it… it’s painful…
>>34
Did I look away at that time?
Without a doubt, this screenwriter had talent.
The scene at the airport bar is really nice…
>>37
The girl on the phone who was cheated on has a CV by Sakakibara, and the concept is perfect.
It’s sad that Al’s mom was misunderstood by the Chris family, even though she can’t tell a lie very well.
A game that treats Chris as a worthless character fails to grasp her essence; she is inherently a rare talent, yet she is an unfortunate woman who has been manipulated by a monster machine created for beasts…
>>39
It’s someone who really hates how they are treated in the game!
I don’t know anything about the social situation related to Gundam at that time.
Did the Zaku getting a revenge on the Gundam really mean something big?
On the 14th, I was thrown into the Cyclops squad on the 18th during my first battle, which was destroyed on the 23rd. I repaired the Zaku in two days and died in a mutual destruction with Gundam on the 25th. Burnie is too tough.
>>43
The experience since coming down to Side 6 has been too intense.
Keep running.
If it reaches the sky
If I could become the wind
Because I believe so.
I like the way the mobile suit moves; it feels more like a simple weapon than a hero robot.
It seems difficult to translate the talent of a shoe fitter into a game, since Alex can basically be carried.
>>46
It seems like a system similar to Gunparade March could be realized.
>>46
If you raise Burnie too high, it seems off, and if you create a gap between Burnie and others, it can affect the game balance… I feel like there are some convenient things like that too.
The Scarlet team wasn’t so much weak as it was in such a critically dire situation that they couldn’t even fire properly while being responsible for the urban area within the colony.
Even if there is the premise that if Alex can’t be broken, the colony will turn to ash, it’s still amazing that Misha shows no hesitation at all.
>>49
Misha is maneuvering in a way that allows her to shoot unilaterally while the opponent cannot shoot back.
It’s good for a pure mischievous child to receive growth opportunities from a good older brother and a good older sister and become a pure and good child.
Because Al had too much talent as a little brat… (Alex captured it perfectly)
Let’s watch it again if they do a stream somewhere during Christmas season.
Crying multiple times.
>>56
I’m already about to cry just from seeing Barney…
>>64
It’s okay.
During that time, terrible edits circulate here.
>>65
Is there a Baniy collaboration or something?
>>70
Every year, bunny collages are usually posted.
>>75
Say it’s a lie, Burnie!
>>70
Bunny outfit Burnie: “Al, are you ready? Listen carefully.”
>>79
If anything, I want to see Chris’s…
By the way, Namikawa had more or less forgotten about it himself.
>>57
I think it’s a bit of a difficult topic for real children…
>>57
I have no expectations other than the voice and acting, so it’s not a problem.
Al is crying loudly.
Somehow an unnecessarily refreshing background music.
Garcia has a great flavor…
When Al came with the police, there was a bit of unease about whether it would be exposed.
As mentioned above, if it becomes too difficult, let’s take the novel version…
Looking at it now, the federation’s security seems too lax, and it feels like things are going too conveniently for Al and Burnie until the very end.
Well, at the very end, a sudden reversal of fortune came.
>>63
Although they lean towards the Federation, they are just being opportunistic, so in case something happens, they quickly harden their stance. The environment of Rebo, where they are conducting MS tests in a neutral colony, allowed them to finish the relaxed Federation and the Zaku parts recovery in just two days, which is significant.
When it comes to Christmas, this place is kind of like Barney and Jonathan.
Blenn is embarrassingly not completed yet.
>>67
It’s tiring to watch, but it’s interesting.
>>67
There was a situation! … A situation!
The blend has amazing power, so if you have the opportunity, it’s worth seeing.
There is no loss.
>>69
I’m really busy right now and can’t find the time, but I’m very interested, so I plan to watch it someday!
The scene where Al is sitting on Zaku’s hand to see the landscape of Rivo after he and Burnie repaired Zaku really hits hard.
>>71
I don’t think there are many Zaku that look so gentle.
Look, Mom… Christmas over there is warm…
>>72
Beam particles are effective!
(Sometimes mixed in is a Kinkedou)
Or Dorothy.
>>82
Lolicon, you know…
Dorothy is in danger.
A rather rare work where currency appears in the Universal Century.
I wonder what the intention behind having only the ending of the final episode in color is.
“I’m born and raised in Sydney.”
(I see… so that means my hometown is…)
“It must be completely covered in snow by now!”
(This guy… has lost his mind from the colony drop… how pitiful.)
>>87
Even Steiner doesn’t try to dodge Barny’s comments, and I like that the infiltration team doesn’t seem to realize they’re making any fatal mistakes at all.
It’s nice that Chris, who was sent to a window-side department after everything ended, is watching a message video from Barney in fan art.
>>88
Ah, this is definitely going to make me cry.
That’s good, isn’t it?
The wall painting has become smelly like a dead butterfly.
The Zaku is becoming more and more concrete and realistic.
I really think this is the worst.
>>90
Why did you put it up there…?
>>90
I’m glad I didn’t have a drink in my mouth…
Director Fumihiko Takayama said he had no interest in Gundam and called it nonsense, yet he made “08th MS Team,” which is impressive.
>>92
There are things that can’t be created without love in a good way, or rather, things that otaku cannot make.
Don’t just watch the anime that the bald guy talks about!
It’s nice how Burnie shows off his bulging crotch even when it digs in from that particular angle.
Also, by the way, Mama and Sakamizu King overflow in the thumbnail.
>>93
The morning when the atomic bomb did not drop on Nagasaki!
>>98
Nuclear missiles are no good!!!
X(mas) Video… is that what it is?!
At the time of the DVD, I was a young person close to Al’s age.
It’s nice to be entering middle age during BD…
The strong connection with the passage of real time.
First, I am impressed by the sense of bringing in a pocket that seems very unlikely to be associated with the word “war.”
>>100
Even so, the perfect title payoff in the final episode is great, isn’t it?
A man who is bad at lying throughout the entire story.
>>106
That’s why you don’t even have the courage to keep lying! It really strikes deep…
>>106
You may look like an adult in comparison to Al, but…
Looking back now, I realize that Burnie was just a young guy in the prime of his youth… it’s tough.
>>110
You’re 19 years old, huh…
>>113
Unlike Kou, who graduated from the officer school (being a professional and fully committed), I graduated from school in September, was conscripted right away, barely completed all the required programs, and finally participated in my first battle as a newbie in December…
>>110
“It’s a nice line from Garcia, saying that you are the only one who can be proud, and it would be a problem if you were gone.”
When you become an adult, you start to see things from that perspective.
>>106
On the contrary, Aru is exceptionally good at lying.
The first non-Tomino video work!
First OVA!
I wonder if the Gundam fans were shocked when this was released at the time.
>>107
And two years later, when 0083 was submitted, the Gundam faction went crazy.
>>107
Because it’s after Char’s Counterattack
No more anime with Amuro and Char are coming out.
I heard that it’s a work that confronts you with the fact that you can’t see.
The main character is an innocent child, and it’s cool with MS. They simply argue about which is better, the Gym or the Zaku.
It’s nice that the kids are simply happy watching the battles between MS and thinking they’re awesome.
Give me a flat beer.
Zeon, do not lose…
Ah…
I’m not good at lying, but when I understand the meaning of the gaze, I honestly don’t want Al to become the kind of person who blames someone because of me…
But I think it would make more sense to consider it as a high-resolution version of the first generation MS rather than forcing it into the timeline as a weird custom version.
>>118
The illegal expansion mentality of the Universal Century seems like it might finally be resolved with the Gundam ORIGIN and Zeeks Axis.
Do something to make it more free.
>>152
In the Universal Century, it’s not good that there’s a capacity to swallow something like the Pale Rider if one wants to.
For better or worse, the line of “it’s not impossible” is low.
I was dissatisfied with how there were few battle scenes when I watched it as a child…
Yeah
>>121
I wondered if I could just cry about this… but there’s also a message saying not to blame myself, so I might be able to hold on.
No, but it’s too painful.
>>133
From the perspective of someone who doesn’t know, it’s just a video letter addressed to a friend.
Chris, you know…
While children are portrayed as consuming war as someone else’s business, it is ironic that in the real world, the sales of the video were good because it featured many MS battles.
>>122
These tongue idiots! If you want to see MS that badly, I’ll pile on the Gundams in 0083!
>>129
The Gundam forces driven mad by 0083!
>>129
Huh!?
The Kämpfer is cool.
It seems that I have an elementary school student living in my heart.
>>124
Response from Kenshi Yonezu
The time period in the story is Christmas, but
A masterpiece you shouldn’t watch during Christmas.
>>125
It’s a masterpiece that you should see.
>>126
If a Vtuber who doesn’t know much about Gundam is recommended it and watches it on Christmas…
I couldn’t help but break into a bad smile as my wonderfully fun mood was completely ruined.
>>145
There are nutrients that can only be obtained from the first appearance!
According to the producer’s comments in the memorial box of Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket,
It seems the goal was to gather completely unrelated personnel to create the Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team.
It is said that the original scriptwriter was Yoshiki Tanaka of “Legend of the Galactic Heroes.”
As you instructed, I am about to depart now.
To the lovely Francesca
You must be feeling relieved now that you’ve gotten rid of your troubles, right? I hope you live happily with that girl.
…I’m not drunk or anything!
I drank a little alcohol, but I’m not drunk at all, how could I get drunk…!
You’re the one who said we should get married!
What are you talking about, saying all these lies!
Ugh… I don’t want to go! Not to a place like that!
Francesca is… Francesca is the worst colony ever!
The woman this time was probably deceived with a lie that will be found out soon, right?!
Just like my time! You don’t even have the guts to stick to your lies!!
In the world of plastic models, the SD designs became popular after this, right?
>>131
Experimenting with the high-priced high-quality F91 and the low-priced low-quality 0083…
Was either of them not so great? I don’t know since I wasn’t watching live.
Gundam is filled with those who, big or small, have their brains fried and are driven crazy!
In fact, 0083 is compared to other OVAs of the same generation.
The quality is outstanding.
I laughed and felt happy when the Getter team rushed in after getting depressed.
It’s a masterpiece, but I remember that there were various things about the MS settings and depictions that made Gundam fans angry.
Well, they’ve been around since the early days of MSV and until today, so in a sense, it might just be business as usual.
I mean, even now, the mecha from 0083 has enough magical power to drive people crazy, it’s amazing.
The story sometimes leaves me feeling uneasy, wondering if the Delaz Fleet around Nina is just a group of crazy maniacs!
>>140
At the beginning, it’s amazing, but the battle between Full Burnian and Saisaris has insane animation, right?
Every year at Christmas, I always watch it, and from the part where Barni and Al happily repair the Zaku, I’ve been crying the whole time.
>>141
If that happens, there might be a chance that Burnie will run out of strength halfway, but it’s seriously like, “What the heck!” when Riboo’s own defense team ignores the request for support!
I like the Kampfer, but also the Gelgoog Jäger, Hi-Gogg, and Z’Gok E…
The designs of the MS that appear are all great.
>>143
The balance between being properly considered as a weapon and having a kaiju feel is really good.
>>143
I like the design of the Suna 2, so I’m happy to see its success after the Kolour drop.
Since it’s coming after Mobile Suit Gundam 0083, the expectations for the 08th Team were too high.
>>149
Even so, it’s impressive how the 08 has become a kind of holy trinity for the Universal Century OVA. The fact that it established the setting for the Ground-Type Gundam is also huge, right?
>>150
I think it’s great that they visualized something like the custom play of mass-produced Mobile Suits in a video.
>>149
I really like the exaggerated stories within the universe century of the plays.
It seems there are some people who watched this at the end of the year.
I guess I’ll watch Mobile Suit Gundam on Christmas and then maybe the Apocalypse 0079 on New Year’s Eve.
I think I was telling myself, “I’m glad… I’m still alive…!”
“I love you, Barney.”
“…you fool”
Always crying.
When the director changes, the policies tend to change quite a bit.
It’s actually good that the Gundam NT, also known as Alex, didn’t go to Amuro…
>>163
In Try Age, Amuro Alex came out, but it seriously made me laugh to see that it looked like it was crushing the Zong with just a bit of damage taken.
But if I give that to Alex, it could happen…
>>163
I’ve become so skinny!
The lines are worse than minced meat, and it really makes me think that I absolutely hate this dreadful war!
>>164
By the way, I think it does remain as a substance after receiving a beam saber…
No, it’s worse than minced meat, so there might not be any left.
>>175
If anything is left, it might just be the shoes and the feet inside them… something like that.
>>175
Maybe meat pieces or bones were scattered, or perhaps the shadows were burnt onto the seat…
>>178
That’s terrifying…
Seeing Chris being carried out by Alex shocked him, but Al’s actions were truly commendable as he did not bear any resentment.
Including crying alone while listening to the principal’s speech later.
>>165
The kindness that Burnie taught us through his selfless example during wartime is overwhelming.
I also thought the Federation’s security was too lax, but after seeing Zeke Axes and the main Gundam series along with it, I realized it was always like that.
The 08th Team wanted to do Romeo and Juliet with Gundam… well, it was pretty straightforward.
Among the three works, only War in the Pocket is from the Zeon perspective, and it feels like it’s doing the most of what I wanted to do among the three.
In the Universal Century OVA, I want you to watch IGLOO after seeing the three sacred treasures.
Especially in episodes 1 and 2 of Gravity Warfare, if it was happening all over the Earth until around October, it really makes you feel how happy the Federation soldiers must have been since the deployment of the mechs.
>>173
IGLOO is interesting too, right?
It’s a collection of stories with quite a different perspective, but…
It’s often called a bad game, but I really like the PS2’s One Year War because it allows for what-if scenarios like what if Amuro got the NT-1…
Isn’t it a waste to put Alex on hold until Tristan?
Even though the One Year War is over, it would have been better if they had detuned it and let someone else pilot it.
>>179
A one-off machine is something that takes a lot of effort for maintenance, supply, and pilot training.
I don’t want to use it unless it’s in a desperate wartime situation…
The cockpit seat of the Kämpfer is quite terrible.
I watched the New Year’s Eve marathon broadcast on YouTube at the end of last year.
It ended exactly at midnight with the ED “Happy New Year.”
