Char’s lingering thoughts (grievances) that had been wandering through space without a place to return to have actually possessed Frontala, who has undergone facial surgery to resemble Char.

This guy is a different person from Char, but he’s about 50% Char, so that’s fine, right?

The old man who ended up freezing in a vacuum along with Angelo.

>>2

It’s a difference between actors and their fan base.

I’m really glad it was defeated since its goal was to create a hole in the world’s interface.

But Char, who praised my violin, was not an empty person like you.

Were you trying to bring about the end of the world?

What is the interface of the world?

>>7

The part where Yona and Rita were having a Newtype conversation in the narrative.

>>8

It looks like there’s a hole forming on the moon too, but if all I do is rub this…

I’ll do my best in my role and listen to what the spacenoids say to make their ideals come true.

It seems that a second year-long war might occur after achieving that, and if it happens again, humanity could be doomed, but I don’t know because it’s just a vessel.

I don’t think showing humanity the Akashic Records forcibly would lead to humanity’s extinction.

>>10

It looks like Father Pucchi.

Naked somewhere between Char and Françoise Char.

I wonder why the area around the neck is so fluffy.

>>13

My hair is messy.

That world has the living existing in this world and residual thoughts existing in the afterlife, and the function of Neo Zeong’s Psycho Shard is to open a hole in that boundary.

In the novel, the Haru Unit was destroyed by Fenex, so it was no longer able to open a hole in the world’s interface, and it activated the Psycho Field with Sinanju to engage in the final battle, but lost and died.

The anime had the Haru Unit arrive, so they went into the final battle with Neo Zeong, but before they could punch a hole in the world’s interface to show Banaji the ends of this world and recruit him, they got purified with a soft chest touch and somehow died.

The outline looks chubby, which reminds me of the live-action Char.

Since I have seen the afterlife and returned to the present world, I am closer to Kamiyu after ZZ than to Char or Aflanshi.

If a hole is made, will it close up in the first place?

As a knockoff of a theater production, I personally quite like it.

The novel version is particularly

There are probably quite a few people who want to meet those who have died.

It would be good to create a spiritual spot where you can meet ghosts by making a small hole.

>>20

Is it Mount Osore?

>>27

I imagined a medium possessed by Char and it was no good.

The concentration of Char’s installation is high, isn’t it? In the anime version.

Even though I installed it, the pathetic elements didn’t come in, so I ended up being far from Char.

The novel was surprising because it was completely different from the anime version, given that it portrayed everything in this world as being hated by an unnamed old man.

>>25

But when I first participated in Super Robot Wars, I was portraying the character with a lot of malice, just like in the original novel version.

They don’t say things like this in anime.

>>72

“That’s why it became ‘I’m saved by anime!'”

>>82

I hope those who don’t know about Ikeda-san’s novel version of Frontal will definitely listen to that performance.

It’s really chilling and frightening.

>>31

Zoltan the otter…

>>31

I’m very grateful that they’ve addressed the dissatisfaction with the battle despite the emergence of Neo Zeong.

>>31

Old types only see phenomena!!!1!!!!!!!!

>>39

I feel like this is the first time I’ve seen death as salvation.

>>31

It’s amazing how, even though it sounds like a haphazard change when you hear it, it ends up looking good in the end.

Fat Char

The character varies somewhat depending on the time, but it’s a fake that doesn’t resemble any of those periods.

In the first half, it’s just a person imitating Char.

As Banaji interacts more, he grows into the individual known as Frontar.

I think that using the Neo Zeong just to persuade Banagher and choosing to send him off surpasses Char as a human.

>>29

It’s not just imitation; there’s residual thought in it from the very beginning, right?

>>30

I’m only playing Char because I’m asked to.

It’s not that they are targeting it themselves.

>>34

Since Monahan was selected for the Char’s Rebirth plan and underwent enhancements and reshaping to play Char, isn’t it strange if it wasn’t intentional?

>>35

I like to grow with banana flavor.

>>35

In a novel, even if my head gets all messed up, I think it stands out more as an anime when I cause a ruckus with Sinanju…

Neon is not motivated.

>>41

I prepared this just to have a conversation with Banaji-kun.

It’s the same as 00 Quanta.

>>35

It felt like a complete rejection nonetheless, and I wondered if this was really a dialogue.

It seems that for several decades since the time of the Unicorn, they have actually been laying the groundwork for Amuro and Char to have been alive.

Perhaps there will actually be a “I was alive all along” development in the future.

It’s sad that Zoltan-kun is a reused asset both in terms of setting and meta.

What is the technology of the afterlife…?

Why do they have better technological skills over there…?

>>46

Because it transcends time and space and allows one to see time, the ability to acquire technology that is not of this world (and currently impossible) is logically consistent even in a science fiction context.

It’s unclear how much of the occult aspects of Gundam are clearly defined, but Unicorn seems to depict those elements properly.

>>47

I’ve left it alone for many years.

We need to properly set up the Axis Shock thing, don’t we?

Because Mr. Sunrise started to think about it.

>>53

Well, even in Zeta Gundam, Char disappeared.

I suppose you have some intention to provide answers to such phenomena.

I don’t know when it will be.

The Neo Zeong wasn’t prepared for dialogue; it was meant to destroy the world’s interface, so if Banaji had been subdued, it would have just destroyed everything as it was.

I have two Sinanju Stein models, but I couldn’t get one of them painted red.

The fact that the part with two machines has been like that since its first appearance is just too miraculous.

I was able to deliver a frontal that was just perfectly not frontal.

If there’s not a bit of vulnerability, life as a human isn’t interesting.

At first, it was created simply to do high-precision imitations.

It is unclear at what point Char’s thoughts became mixed in.

Gradually, I become aware that my original personality is mixed with strange memories and perceptions within me.

Poor thing…

>>52

At least by the year 0094, it’s already in, right?

I don’t know why it shines.

This guy is really trying hard to play the Char image that everyone wants, he’s a good guy…

>>56

It’s just an empty doll, neither a good guy nor a bad guy.

I started to think that Banaj-kun might become like me, and that’s one of the few things that feels like my own sense of self.

In the mid-game, it’s just a doll, but by the end, it has completely awakened its self-awareness.

Char – Confusion = Frontal

I’m going to shoot it… this is it!!!

Is Char’s portrayal ending in the destruction of the world? Isn’t that just aiming to be an outright villain?

>>62

The anime is only considering the Side Co-Prosperity Sphere.

It’s not that I hate the world.

>>62

Because they are terrorists.

>>63

That’s an homage to the V Gundam from the novel, right?

I don’t feel that the neon lights are something as isolated as occult technology.

>>65

In the end, the necessary psycho frame for full operation isn’t packed into the main body, and anything covered by the psycho field cannot be destroyed.

And above all, the anime version of Frontale has no intention of killing.

>>66

I’m glad the final boss understands the situation.

Although Char’s methods were forceful, what he truly sought was the salvation of humanity and the Earth through NT awakening.

I am not particularly despairing about humanity itself.

Banajikun fell in love at first sight and felt a sense of destiny, but he is putting his life on the line for Mineva, which is scary.

Compared to Char, who wanted to make humanity whole.

It seems that Frontal was trying to forcefully make the world’s interface look like an Old-Type by creating a hole in it, in order to make all humanity pseudo-New Types, which I get the intention behind.

I like the feeling that if Super Robot Wars V were a continuation of the anime, it would turn out like this.

If you think about the process of how Frontal was created, it’s only natural that someone like Zoltan would be born as well, so it’s understandable that they harbor more hatred towards that.

If the staff hadn’t said unnecessary things, Zoltan’s tragedy might have been prevented…

It is the embodiment of ultimate resignation.

But that’s not a human perspective. Humans live in the present.

It seems tough to try to connect answers to the occult that just bald people conveniently used.

>>80

There are similar episodes in Lean’s Wings as well.

Bald people make arbitrary performances regardless of logic.

The young people are making excuses for it later.

>>85

I don’t understand why Nanajin turned red…

>>80

I definitely can’t just completely ignore pushing back against Axis.

If you’re going to tackle that (at least as a writer), you have to have a rationale to be able to depict it.

>>89

Since ancient times, there has been a rationale for the power of mino powder, so I don’t think there was any need to explain it again.

It introduced a sci-fi element that hadn’t existed until then, like the concept of higher dimensions, or even the occult.

>>97

What does it mean to see time? When I think about that, it leads to a sci-fi approach…

>>97

By that time of Z, it’s already been mentioned in interviews.

>>101

The interview with Z was on another dimension (laughs); wasn’t it at a level that went beyond just thinking that way?

If the Old Types only see phenomena, then I don’t think showing them the Akashic Records would make them New Types. What was Frontal thinking about that?

>>86

In anime, humanity is viewed like small pests that thrive and perish in a tiny space, so no matter how much chaos arises, it seems to take no interest.

>>87

Did you rank up or something…?

>>83

The Haru Unit generates Psycho Shards, so there should be a Psycho Frame, right?

If there isn’t one, we can’t create the pseudo Psycho Frame, the Psycho Shard.

>>88

I think the flow is that the psycho parts are specialized only in the shade, so the main body itself doesn’t have an occult machine feel.

>>95

In the narrative, there is a mention in the conversation between Monahan and Erik, but the Zeon Republic guys have investigated it, and it’s been black-boxed with details unknown, and it’s explicitly stated that it’s created with knowledge from the other world (the whole), making it a bundle of the occult.

When was your first participation, BX?

>>93

It should be the Third Z.

Clearly a character based on a novel.

While saying it’s meaningless, I’m trying to fulfill the role I’ve been given.

Once you obtain the box, use it as a threat without opening it to exclude the Earth from the economic sphere.

Isn’t that good enough?

It’s like a nameless person when working.

Basically, it’s a Monahan speaker, but the settings for Monahan differ depending on the medium, which is the source of confusion.

Unify?

>>102

In the Unicorn OVA, it was abbreviated, but they brought it out in Narrative.

The mastermind behind the Unicorn series will likely remain the same, so not much will change.

In SF works, there are higher dimensions such as different superior worlds or spiritual realms.

Many people were caught off guard by the sudden appearance of higher dimensions and the thoughts of the deceased in UC and NT, as these concepts were not present in Tomino’s Gundam.

>>104

There are no higher dimensions, but there are the thoughts of the deceased.

Camille must have been receiving a lot on Z.

As long as the bald man doesn’t rationalize the occult, someone has to come up with a reason.

Speaking of which, I remember in the Z interview they mentioned that if Sara died, she would be transcended in a higher-dimensional world or something like that.

That reasoning has a Buddhist-like image of becoming completely pure in spirit after death.

At the point of the 1st, Amuro was receiving Lalah’s navigation during the escape from A Baoa Qu, right?

“If you don’t accept that the afterlife and ghosts exist, you won’t be able to handle Gundam.”

In the final episode of Z, Katz says to Sara’s ghost that if Shirocco dies, they will melt together.

The solvent part where the ghost’s soul melts is in a higher dimension.

It’s something anyone who has seen the series knows: Newtypes can communicate with the dead.

>>114

Weren’t they ambiguous about whether they were really talking to a ghost or if it was just a typical ghostly element used in anime until the unicorn part?

>>125

In the novel Gundam, it’s set up as a strong residual thought (thinking) and it’s just following that in UC and other works.

>>127

The thought of a novel is released upon death; if there is a receiving NT, it can remain within that person, but once that person dies, it feels like it is released together with their thoughts, right?

>>125

For a production, it’s talking way too much into the void, Newtype.

It’s clearly visible and I’m able to speak.

>>136

It’s not the Universal Century, but it was interesting that Kira and Flay from Seed couldn’t have a proper conversation.

Just like the sparkling thing that’s happening right now, the elements of Tomino’s works are destined to be reinterpreted as “what is this?” across the board.

Take a look at what Camille is seeing.

Even the people in there can blend together like this right away.

High-purity Newtypes have been consistently said by Lalah that they don’t die just from dying.

>>117

Still, I feel that Lala is a uniquely exceptional existence on a different level.

Was that really a human…?

>>117

In the end, it’s just that the Newtype is emulating the memories of the living person, so it’s not that Lalah is special, but rather that Amuro and Judau who are watching are the special ones, aren’t they?

Well, it might have been better not to mention specific words because it could become a hassle.

If I don’t put it into specific words, I’ll probably get complaints anyway.

Once it was decided to do UC, I don’t think it was avoidable anymore.

I’ve always been curious about how Camille would react to seeing someone naked.

Being vague allows for room for imagination, which is good.

>>121

I think it’s only natural that it would be a problem if the creators are uncertain.

The ghosts in that world are swamp men, so Lalah is also a different person from when she was alive.

As expected of the epitome of a high-level NT, Kamille and Lala have an impressively outstanding quirkiness.

Is it okay…?

Once the barriers of the living disappeared, that was already a different person.

In her lifetime, Lalah was a kind child, but she was not a malevolent spirit like that.

>>129

It feels like I’ve become a different person now that the shackles of my body are gone.

Even the dead kats are somehow calm and looking beautiful…

At the time of Belchill, it seemed like ghosts were trying to have a conscious continuity with the living humans, but in the movie, it ultimately turned into an unconscious setting, separating them from the living.

Lalah has been overly deified, for better or worse; it’s almost as if she’s from a different dimension…

When you die, you become a deceased person.

I think the one that conveys the feelings most clearly is Ideon.

The moment they die, everyone feels relieved.

Well, the only one who understood Amuro that deeply was Lalah…

Amuro has encountered many Newtypes and enhanced humans as well.

In watching “Sen Hasa,” I wonder if the residual thoughts of the dead are those of someone else or their own, it’s ridiculous.

What can be understood is that the dream is a field where the dead can meet.

In the novel Z, it clearly states that the ghost is a wave, so that mysterious energy has a consciousness-like quality.

When Katsu said, “It’d be fine if Shirocco died, right?” Sara responded with a casual “Oh, really?” which is quite terrible.

The psycho-communication device expands insight and receives human will.

The concept of Newtypes expands from there to include individuals who can receive and converse not only with the will of the living but also the dead. That’s the story of the First.

In ZZ, there are scenes where the will of the people who died from colony drops deeply influences Judau, causing him to cry uncontrollably.

The scene in Char’s Counterattack where Quess is frightened because of someone else’s will coming into her is derived from this ability.

“I remember Katsuu saying something like, ‘If that person dies, we can be together.'”

Being able to accept being with Shirocco means that he is definitely not Kats anymore.

Those who are dead are only the dead, as discussed towards the end of NT.
