[Mobile Suit Gundam] Could it be that it’s difficult to find a traditionally cute girl in Gundam?


Otaku Review Image

1: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)12:34

I’m feeling unpleasant.

2: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)12:39

Shakti

3: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)12:39

Sara, you came.

4: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)12:46Yeahx3

The thread image is because Garrod worked incredibly hard for that.

5: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)12:50Yeahx22

There are few simple stories in Gundam where a boy works hard and goes all the way to space to help the girl he likes.

7: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)12:53

>>5It’s probably about X and SEEDFREEDOM.
What was V like again?

35: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:41

>>7Crossbone is quite similar to that.

6: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)12:50

Mia

8: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)12:58Yeahx41

It’s true that Tifa is cute by herself, but Tifa is even cuter when she’s with Garrod.

9: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)12:59

A decent Newtype.

10: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:00Yeahx8

It may look like this, but I’m a meat-eater.

11: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:02

I was holding Garrod in my dreams and such.

12: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:04

A type that attacks after initially avoiding and then approaching.

13: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:05

A neat and clean type that suits the riding position.

14: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:06

Marina Ismail

15: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:08Yeahx26

At first, it was Garrowd who was always talking about Tifa, but once he began to look at the world, it’s nice that now Tifa is the one becoming frustrated.

74: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:56Yeahx5

>>15I definitely think Tifa was wet when she woke up from that daydream.

16: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:16Yeahx3

They have more height and stamina than I expected, which is different from my first impression.

17: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:16

I feel like Tifa’s cuteness is starting to be noticed.

18: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:17

I think it’s a work that carefully depicts relationships.

19: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:17

I want to commit rape.

20: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:18Yeahx5

>>19The death flag has been raised.

21: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:18

The thread image has a pretty good personality though.

22: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:19

I love the collage that mixes Garrod in the ensemble artwork of the Hero series protagonists.

23: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:20Yeahx5

If there hadn’t been a broadcast shortening, would we have seen Tifa quietly getting frustrated at Garrod, who is close to Parra?

24: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:20

Look at me.

25: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:20Yeahx1

Looking back at Gundam works,
A work that so delicately depicts the sensitive hearts of women.
I might not know anything else.

26: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:21Yeahx3

It seems that I’ve been doing garuni every day since jumping on the DX.

27: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:23

I wonder if the manga version’s sequel project has fallen through.

45: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:47Yeahx4

>>27Sequels are usually not great, so it’s better not to have them…

51: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:49

>>27It seems the twins are making it look like they’re involved in some unsavory activities, but in reality, they’ve been reconstructing the GX to eliminate potential threats and sought Garrod’s cooperation; there’s really no way to expand on the story beyond this…

28: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:24

To put it more bluntly, the men too…
Being filled with anguish and feeling girlish, it’s the time of puberty.

29: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:29

If you drop a lot of colonies, you can get a classic beautiful girl.

30: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:34Yeahx1

It’s nice to see Garrod working hard for Tifa…
So I’ll send you a Gundam…

31: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:35Yeahx5

I am going home.
It is where the people I think of are. It is where the people who think of me are.

70: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:55

>>31Tifa’s tone is noticeably strong and she seems displeased when she says this.
It’s nice, isn’t it…?

32: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:35Yeahx1

Although it has a fleeting impression, it’s a personality and physique that comes from having lived in that world.

33: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:37

In the end, wasn’t G Gundam all about love and romance?

34: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:39Yeahx7

>>33Like it or not, Rain is not a traditional cute beautiful girl.

37: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:43Yeahx5

>>34What do you mean that someone in their twenties can’t call themselves a girl?

87: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:00

>>37I’m saying that seriously doing something like “Neo-Germany’s women!” isn’t traditional!

36: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:42

Tifa tried her best to become a conventional cute girl thanks to Garrod.
Before that, she was just some strange woman.

40: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:45

>>36At that time, kids like that were popular…

38: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:43

I want to see it again after a long time, but it’s only available for rent and not streaming…
The BD BOX is being sold at a premium price…

39: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:44

G-Gundam properly rode a horse all the way to space to save the heroine, didn’t he?

41: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:45

I think Rain’s character is quite orthodox.
Well, just a little while ago, I was a teenager…

42: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:46

It’s not entirely wrong to say it’s a story about W going to kill girls for a girl he likes…

43: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:46Yeahx4

It’s not unusual now, but back then it was rare for the main story to start before the opening or for the subtitle to be a line of dialogue; those were effects you wouldn’t see elsewhere.

49: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:48

>>43Zabungle was doing something similar to that.

44: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:46

In the end, it’s nice that not just Garrod and the others, but also Witz, Roaby, and Kid are getting along well. Although it’s somewhat forceful, to rebuild the devastated world, we have to reproduce and increase in number.

46: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:47

In the sequel manga, she is truly becoming an ordinary cute wife, and I’m really happy about it.
Let’s save the reward for saving the world for our future children.

47: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:47

It was definitely very similar to when I was doing Evangelion.

56: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:50

>>47Because it’s from ’96.
Eva was already at its peak, so it feels like it stole the spotlight.

48: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:47

There was a bit of a leftover feeling about Eniru being with Roaby.

50: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:48Yeahx4

Simple Gundam X in the avant-title.
After it comes out, the prologue and a recap of all the episodes begin, and afterward, there’s the opening song, or the ending also serves as a preview.
I really like that the BGM isn’t very anime-like and has a more dramatic feel, and the stylish direction is quite appealing in Gundam X.

90: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:00

>>50I feel like I almost never see others doing similar things.

94: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:01Yeahx2

>>90Moreover, it’s too bold to be silent here.

102: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:03

>>94Silence before the opening.
Next, instead of character voices, a lower narration.
The music played in the set is almost all dark BGM.
It’s going to be an extremely sharp production, so of course, it can only be perceived as dull by first-time viewers.

123: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:10Yeahx1

>>102I saw it for the first time on Abema, and it was nothing but impactful.

52: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:49

Is the sequel a story about a manga that seems like a spin-off, featuring none of the former characters and includes Gundam imported from G Generation?
Or is it the official sequel included as a bonus on the BD?

57: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:50

>>52As for DAME, Garrod and the others aren’t in it, and it must have ended a long time ago!

53: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:49

I thought it was cool to have previews for the next episode during the ending, but I was surprised when the ending song suddenly switched to English.

54: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:49

Rein is a traditional type, after all she’s my childhood friend… As for her age, or rather her appearance, it’s hard to say she’s a girl…

55: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:50

I thought it would save time if I included a preview for the next episode at the ending, but it ended up being more work instead.
I still like being hated by the staff from that time.

59: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:51

>>55Well, you have to deliver the completed animation ahead of the deadline, after all.

61: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:51

>>55Oh, so that was for saving money… but even to an amateur, it was obviously going to take a lot of effort…

72: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:56

>>61It’s a hassle to create a high-quality separate ending animation!
Alright, just play the digest of the main story and it’s all good!
I came up with a good idea! At that moment, I really thought so, but I probably didn’t have the spare time to create an ending animation either.

76: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:57Yeahx2

>>72The first opening can be masked with a sense of style, but visually it’s really energy-saving…

58: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:50Yeahx2

Rein is beautiful, but not cute.

60: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:51

If we combine the ending and the next episode preview, we can shorten the work, right? Good idea!
This is an extra hassle!

62: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:52

It’s a stylish overall vibe, although it’s different from the specifically recorded Western music for the ending theme.

63: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:52

In a time when there was no Internet
The staff who made back-and-forth trips between the studio in Seoul and home.
The demeanor is different.

64: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:53

At that time, there were quite a few cases where the preview images and the actual footage were different, created through banks, but with that method, you can’t lie at all…

69: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:54

>>64The director might have been a bit too hyped up due to the continuous work carried over from Gundam W and juggling various other projects.

65: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:53Yeahx4

I hope the X gacha comes to G Generation Eternal soon, but don’t come until I’ve saved up some stones.

66: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:53

Rather, why are the G Gundam characters adult men and women?

75: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:57Yeahx1

>>66You can’t just have children dive into a tournament that decides the fate of the nation.
The country that is being involved, well… yes.

67: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:54

Speaking of which, there was a woman recently who complained about the advice to just run without thinking.

68: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:54Yeahx2

It’s nice that DOME-san speaks a bit more energetically about the upcoming exciting episode.

71: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:55Yeahx1

>>68The preview for the final episode feels youthful, and after watching the main story, it makes you go, “Ah…”

73: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:56

It was a reckless act that could only be accomplished because the director and screenwriter were people who absolutely adhered to the process.

77: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:57

It was good that director and screenwriter Hiroyuki Kawasaki always took the lead in the main script and didn’t run away from it.

78: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:57Yeahx4

Garoti and I are so in love with each other that there’s no room for infidelity.
It was probably a chance for Karis or something, but that guy is definitely part of the Garotifa hardcore crowd…

88: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:00

>>78He was a man traveling with two others, caught between Garotifas.
The expression is different.

93: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:01

>>88In the epilogue of the ending, the three of us traveled together for a while until we finally parted ways…
You’re too into your favorites, Karis.

91: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:01

>>78I can’t continue to disrupt the two of you any longer… so I will leave our shared life.

79: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:58

There’s a lot of effort put into having no dialogue in the preview, just the announcement, right?

80: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:58

It’s not bad to show a girl’s face when you’re feeling unpleasant, but for Sara, it surely becomes unpleasant.

82: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:58

>>80Given the situation, it would be understandable to hear even a bit of sarcasm.

83: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:59Yeahx1

>>80That can only be described as an unfortunate accident.

85: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:59Yeahx1

>>80Frieden is in big trouble! Are you playing with makeup at a time like this…? It was just bad timing, though.

89: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:00

>>85Toniya was also giving makeup products as a gift to help her get used to it quickly.
Well, Tifa wasn’t the kind of girl who could read the atmosphere or the timing back then either…
It’s a kind of freedom spirit where the timing is just right whenever I feel like I want to do something.

81: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:58

Ayla, Sara, Eve, Hinata…

84: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)13:59

The narrator for the next episode preview is Dome-san.
Whenever Garrod is about to be a go-getter, the mood tends to get really high.
Are you a fan?

86: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:00Yeahx3

>>84I’m recklessly running through and smashing the future that NT envisioned.
It must be just so much fun!

99: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:02

>>86Even old guys want to change the future, after all…

92: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:01

Enil…

110: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:05Yeahx3

>>92Please get close to LoaBee.

116: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:06

>>110It’s funny and amusing that I’m coming to Witts’ family’s village as part of a set.
I think it would be nice if the two of us could run a tavern together.

120: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:09Yeahx1

>>110At first, I was wondering why…? But it does seem like we might get along.
That guy’s former crush is the previous owner of a leopard, and the woman he was staying with during his temporary departure from Frieden is a collaborator with anti-federation guerrillas.
You prefer women who smell like gunpowder, right?

95: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:01Yeahx4

The fact that Tifa looked cute is something we can be proud of because we all worked hard to protect her.

96: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:02

There are brothers who act like they know everything about Garotifua.

97: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:02Yeahx4

The after-story manga features Caris, who embodies the ideal former friend, making me feel like crying. I’m really glad you are alive.

104: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:04

>>97I thought I was chasing after Garrod, who had stolen X, but I realized the scheme of my organization and immediately betrayed them to fight alongside Garrod.
As expected of a Newtype.

98: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:02Yeahx1

Kagari is cute.

100: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:02Yeahx1

Both enemies and allies love Garotifa way too much…

101: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:02

If the director had continued for one more season in the commentary, the staff might have ended up with fatalities, or something like that was said, and it was really scary…

103: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:03

>>101Well, when it comes to X…

109: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:04

>>101It’s ridiculous that we have to prepare the next episode’s footage for the next preview already.

114: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:06

>>109It seems that TV Asahi was the one to suggest it first, but considering that it had become routine for them to deliver just a few hours before the broadcast, they would want to take countermeasures.

111: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:05

>>101Although the members who created it are the same, the fact that they prepared three patterns by swapping the order of the staff roll makes me wonder what that means, and at the same time, it seems they couldn’t switch things up either.

113: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:06Yeahx3

>>101Fans often have negative reactions, saying that the number of episodes has been shortened to 39 episodes, while other Gundam series like G and W have over 45 episodes across four seasons, thinking it is a cancellation or a reduction in episode count.
The scene was saved! It feels too raw, but on the contrary, it’s good that they tightened the story instead of doing something weird to stretch the time, which shows they were seriously going through a death march…

125: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:12

>>113That’s not a fan, it’s a hater.

105: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:04

The enemies that pick on Tifa usually end up dying.

106: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:04Yeahx4

I have a memory of X saying something like, “Once I’m That is completed,…” followed by the opening, and the reveal of the DX silhouette was unbelievably cool.

107: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:04Yeahx3

The Gundam series has a lot of common elements, but X also has many great songs.

108: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:04Yeahx4

I like this face in the manga version.
I like this face in the manga version.

Since I met Caris, something feels strange, doesn’t it, Garoad? Are you hiding something from me?

115: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:06Yeahx3

>>108This is something I’ve been dominating regularly.

126: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:12

>>115These days, Tifa is in a state like a wife who is already raising children.

128: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:13

>>126Aren’t they not born yet…?

129: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:14

>>128Because I am taking care of and raising children.

112: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:06

When watching OP, it seems that Leopald’s aircraft change occurs quite a bit later.

117: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:06

Loaby and Anil seem to be hanging out because they don’t have any destination planned.

121: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:10Yeahx1

>>117Since both of them probably want to tease their best friends Witts and Tonya.

118: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:08Yeahx2

Because if Roavi fell for Sara, that would be impossible… right?
Sara has always been devoted to Jamil…

122: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:10Yeahx3

>>118What I like about Sara is that even when she is put in a difficult situation, she stays devoted and doesn’t betray, which makes her different from other female characters in Gundam series and is quite appealing.
Moreover, it’s surprisingly nice that the seemingly light-hearted Toniya has absolutely no interest in men; she’s quite steadfast, Toniya.

119: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:08

When I was a child, I was a fan of Air Master, but now I’m a fan of Leopoludo.

124: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:11

Enil is actually quite a good listener and is very considerate.
I feel like she’s suited for the village elder.

127: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:12Yeahx2

I wonder if there is a heaven; it’s my favorite episode.

131: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:15Yeahx1

>>127It’s bitter, but thanks to that story, the two older guys start to look really cool.

132: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:15

>>131This story is well-told, but…
Not featuring the main character Garrod and the heroine Tifa at all is quite an edgy script.

130: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/21(水)14:14

Isn’t First also getting shortened?
It seems the reason is an issue with the sponsor.
