[Mobile Suit Gundam] I just watched the original now, and they’re killing everyone even if the opponent is a Newtype.

The concept of Newtypes seems to create a sense of discomfort because I had seen works with themes about understanding each other beforehand.

1: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:24Yeahx10

This is an afterthought.

2: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:25Yeahx3

Even if we understand each other, what can we do in the middle of the battlefield?

3: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:26

It seems like the theme is that New Types have qualities beyond just being able to kill each other.

4: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:27

Aren’t you a Newtype too? Won’t you join me? Shut up!

6: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:28

Due to the Quattro era, it seems that Char had more hope for mutual understanding among Newtypes.

7: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:30

So, after feeling completely down that all we can do is kill each other… it’s hopeful that everyone guides us to a place where we can return.
Because the series continued, the battles never seemed to end…

8: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:32

Sometimes, even if we understand each other, there are situations where we have no choice but to kill each other.

9: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:32Yeahx5

Ideal: Newtypes can understand each other without words, so there is no need to fight.
Reality: Just because I understand your true feelings doesn’t mean we can avoid fighting.

15: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:39Yeahx2

>>9This became evident with Camille and Haman…

10: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:34Yeahx2

It’s too much that Amuro himself is like the complete form of a Newtype as a tool for killing.

11: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:36

If you tread on someone’s heart with your shoes on, they’ll get angry.

12: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:38Yeahx1

Did Newtypes appear in the first series to the extent of saying they were killing everything?

37: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:55

>>12Sharia was quickly killed, but it’s written like a tragedy where Lala understood, and Char is still Char.
In the first generation, there are only three enemy NTs, right…?

13: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:38

Char is angry at Amuro because…
Maybe it’s because it’s a proper New Type but only used for killing.

14: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:39

It’s definitely Char who has overly grand dreams about the innovation of humanity and new types, given that they are both parents.
The counterattack is the backlash.

16: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:40

It is nothing more than a being that appears in the cosmic chosen people ideology religion that Mr. Zion is talking about.
It’s just a term being used because a superpower user adapted to space has emerged.

20: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:43

>>16It may be unclear whether it is truly the result of adaptation to space…
Lala, who possesses outstanding abilities, awakens her powers on Earth, where she was born.

17: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:40

Char probably sees ideals precisely because his NT level is low.

18: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:42

I think the idea that we can understand each other but have no choice but to kill each other is a theme of war.

19: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:43

Aren’t you just saying that if even unicorns could understand each other like this, it wouldn’t be so difficult?

21: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:44

Char was fundamentally capable of doing anything at an outstanding level, but the one thing he desired the most, the potential of a Newtype, was only at a first-class level.
Still, it would have been fine in a normal environment, but having two top-tier individuals like Lalah and Amuro so close by…

22: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:46

It’s like being able to understand the other person’s thoughts, but not being able to fully comprehend them.

23: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:47

In the first place, NT theory is nothing more than a higher version of “Calm down and we can talk.”
Even if you speak honestly, there will only be results showing that some people are impossible to reach.
Sometimes it can be a bad thing precisely because it’s the honest opinion.

24: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:47

NTs can understand without using tools that are structured like language and have a wide range of interpretations.
Understanding and accepting the other person’s claims are two different things.

25: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:47

Even if we can read each other’s thoughts,
I can’t help but think that this person is fat or ugly.

26: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:48

The fact that all we understand from mutual understanding is that we can’t agree on anything is a reality too…

27: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:48

Firstly, Amuro’s anger is understandable; he shouldn’t let Lalah out onto the battlefield.

28: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:49

Well, understanding the other person or making them understand doesn’t mean that we can avoid fighting.
It is precisely because I understand that there are times when I must deny or defeat that ideology.
In Gundam, they keep rubbing against the idea of hope, but in other works, there are often plots where villains or madmen impose such things.

29: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:50

I realized that I’m an Old Type who unconditionally feels resentment towards superior New Types. But in the end, having Esper-like abilities isn’t the essence of being a New Type.

30: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:51

A Newtype refers to a person who doesn’t need to engage in war.
It’s not about psychics.

33: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:53Yeahx2

>>30Because the person who defined it before a real psychic appeared died.
It is a story that will be confused from now on.

31: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:51

Well, it’s good to at least understand that it’s something that must be killed…

32: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:52

Is it quite a romance? I thought Amuro is a rather youthful guy, but his targets are generally older.

34: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:53

In the first place, the reason for a civilian boy, as a Newtype, to engage in a grand maneuver against military personnel is for justification…

35: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:54

It’s healthier to understand each other with our fists after all.

38: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:55

>>35What should I do to convey my feelings to someone who can’t understand me through a fistfight?
It’s a confession in a language that all humanity shares, isn’t it nice?

40: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:56

>>35What G-Gundam was saying is that only fighters can understand each other with their fists, so speak with words!

43: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:58

>>40Basically, it’s the same for NT as well.
There is also a theory that the fighter is an NT (since they can use bits and the MF is a Psycho Machine that comes when called).

36: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:55

It’s nice to see Amuro, Lalah, and Char working together to somehow deal with the muddy car…

39: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:56

As a result of understanding each other’s essence in other works.
Sometimes, there are times when I might try to kill you because you should not exist.

41: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:57

Can Camille and Scirocco shake hands if they understand each other without misunderstanding?

42: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:57

The feeling of disgust exists in everyone, so the theoretically new type without such a feeling can only exist in a world where the idea is activated.

44: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/27(Tue)05:59

It is to be expected that future generations will simply treat it as a matter of being a psychic.
