[Mobile Suit Gundam SEED] I don’t really understand because I’m not experienced with the military.

Japan Otaku Reviews+

Is it common for someone as high-ranking as a major general to operate weaponry on the front lines in reality?

1: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx15

Basically, isn’t it a position where you shouldn’t be riding weapons on the front lines?

2: Japan Otaku Reviews

There was a major general named Rentaro Mutaguchi in the Japanese army who was frequently on the front lines during the Singapore and Imphal campaigns.

21: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>2

The logistics officer attached to the command, who provided estimates for the supplies and support personnel necessary for the operation, was berated and transferred to the combat unit.

As a high-ranking officer, leaving the necessary procedures to subordinates and indulging in nightly celebrations with geishas at Suikaen in Meimyo to pray for victory in battle is…

Can we say that they are on the front lines…?

3: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

If there’s a precedent like that, then I guess it’s okay…

4: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

We must keep in mind that the Orb Army is an extremely unique and lax military that allows for leniency even when Lady Kagali is deployed.

5: Japan Otaku Reviews

If we’re talking about the navy, quite a few generals have died on the front lines.

7: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>5

Sometimes ships sink completely, you know.

9: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>7

Because it’s a heavily armored battleship, there are those who become a shield for their allies.

6: Japan Otaku Reviews

It may vary by organization, but there was a high tendency for commanders of the Japanese army to be at the forefront.

8: Japan Otaku Reviews

In reality, a captain can be at the rank of lieutenant colonel, but when it comes to ranks with “general,” I think they take a position of overall command at the headquarters.

It depends on how the CE world is categorized, but if brigadier generals are included as junior officers, it’s not unreasonable for them to be at the front lines.

I don’t know about riding around in mobile weapons at the gambling den!

10: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

If you’re going to make reckless decisions like Kira, you should at least have a title like colonel!

12: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>10

In Kira’s case, since he is also related to Kagari, I wonder if there was a lack of consideration regarding his position without a title.

11: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Well, the thread image has some internal personnel matters, after all.

13: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Please stay back in reality!! That must be it.

If it’s fiction, the leader has to be in front; otherwise, the subordinates won’t follow, right?!

Rather than sending out the foot soldiers, it’s more effective for the general to take the lead and fight alone, resulting in fewer casualties!

It tends to end up like that…

14: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx8

In the case of the thread image, it is a relative of the head of state.

It’s just that I was forced into a rank so that I could make excuses for taking military actions that I decided on my own.

15: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

I’m strong enough to manage things on my own…

16: Japan Otaku Reviews

Well, it’s probably best for Kira to do as she pleases…

Aslan is the same, but he’s just not suited for politics.

30: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>16

If anything, it seems that in the Freedom of the Seed, Kira is acting under the orders of the organization under Lacus, while Aslan, who is almost acting alone, is doing as he pleases the most…

17: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Since Kagari is the general, she cannot place her brother Kira, the hero of the nation, in an odd position.

– As a technical officer, it is a rightful position because Kirra’s patented invention brings in money for the orb.

– It’s a title for doing reckless things on the battlefield.

The surroundings are the reason.

18: Japan Otaku Reviews

The strong ones are definitely the great ones.

19: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

It’s like the Emperor’s younger brother is a national hero, fighting vigorously on the front lines.

Ultimately, it’s true that it’s just one pilot, but if I put them in a low rank and placed them under some command, it would be a hassle.

20: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>19

Conversely, in Kira’s case, there’s a possibility that the superior could become intimidated and it wouldn’t work out.

42: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>19

In foreign countries, it is common for royalty to serve in the military as part of their noblesse oblige.

22: Japan Otaku Reviews

The position of a brigadier general, who is the husband of a high-ranking official’s relative with influence in other countries and is the head of an organization similar to the United Nations, would be an incredibly powerful force once thrown into the frontline; it’s beyond just being difficult to manage.

23: Japan Otaku Reviews

It can’t be helped! It’s because you all are weak!!!!!!!!!!

32: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>23

If someone as capable as you says that, then…

62: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>32

In reality, it’s strong, so you idiot, face it head-on! There’s hardly anyone who can do it like Aslan.

24: Japan Otaku Reviews

In One Piece and Legend of the Galactic Heroes, a brigadier general is nothing but trash.

25: Japan Otaku Reviews

Even as a lieutenant colonel, it’s still impressive.

26: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s Orb’s fault that morale skyrockets to the limit when Kaguya stands at the front line.

27: Japan Otaku Reviews

I know I shouldn’t rely on Legend of the Galactic Heroes, but Reinhard, who became a major general in the anime, was forced into close combat for no reason, and I was thinking, “Damn, if I were the fleet admiral!”

28: Japan Otaku Reviews

Kira also has the backing of family ties to the head of state.

If you lower the rank, that in itself will be a big issue.

29: Japan Otaku Reviews

The brother of the head of state has a background that he doesn’t want to be dug up too much, but his ability is treated as top-notch, which seems troublesome.

33: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>29

I am the older sister!!

31: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

It seems safer for this guy to be inside the MS he pilots than to be at headquarters.

34: Japan Otaku Reviews

In the case of dead species, they seemed unfamiliar with saying things like “Uh… it’s an order!” but in the movie, they were able to give proper instructions, which shows that they have gained experience.

37: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>34

The compass was created as a counter-terrorism measure by Mikeel, which is probably why there were so many deployments for suppressing terrorism to the point where the captain’s position became solidified.

38: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>37

Well, seeing that you’ve really settled into your role as captain…

66: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

>>38

Perhaps what Durandal said was actually correct, considering there has been too much bloodshed… This feeling of weakness began to rear its head.

The Yukari Kingdom has presented an unparalleled sample of the chairman’s victory in a very unscrupulous manner.

I don’t know if it’s called Accord or whatever, but you guys are just murderers!

35: Japan Otaku Reviews

Are you the captain’s machine?!

You’re not that great, after all!

36: Japan Otaku Reviews

In the case of thread images, I think it is a rank influenced by various political considerations such as honorific titles and internal personnel matters.

Considering the contribution to the orb, I think it’s still insufficient…

39: Japan Otaku Reviews

Honestly, I don’t really understand why this guy was given a title.

Isn’t it something that you have to be free from?

41: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>39

Since the Archangel was integrated into the Orb Forces…

40: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s funny that Aslan was more suited to being a direct agent of the head of state rather than a soldier.

45: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

>>40

The framework of the military is even a hindrance…

51: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>45

So, having Meirin, who easily transcends the framework of military soldiers, as a supervisor… isn’t this the most amazing and crazy combination?

52: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>51

Their competence is outstanding, though.

At the same time, the level of danger is also extreme.

43: Japan Otaku Reviews

The compass retained the rank of the sending organization, so it remained as a brigadier general.

44: Japan Otaku Reviews

My wife is more suited to be a commander…

46: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>44

Please avoid the cockpit.

47: Japan Otaku Reviews

Aslan is also a first-class officer equivalent to a colonel, the same as Mu.

48: Japan Otaku Reviews

I can’t see any future other than failure if we let someone who has repeatedly held back the military join now!

49: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you’re the captain of the MS team, a rank like Amuro’s, which is first lieutenant, would probably be appropriate.

In the context of the Universal Century, it’s like being in a position similar to Garma, so if you’re in a lower rank, any mistakes could be way too troublesome.

50: Japan Otaku Reviews

If it’s common to be placed in command after achieving accomplishments as a player, it seems like the overall strength would decrease.

53: Japan Otaku Reviews

The ZAF pilot team is likely to be reorganized into the Hawken team or the Asuka team after the main story, as Shin and Hilda hold the same rank of Captain and are the highest-ranking officers.

54: Japan Otaku Reviews

I am Neo Roanoke, the Great!

55: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>54

Old man!!

56: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

When asked if there are achievements that could make him a brigadier general, Kira does have some, so it’s a bit troublesome again.

It’s common to have internal personnel decisions.

57: Japan Otaku Reviews

Aslan also has the capability to be Kagari’s bodyguard.

71: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>57

It seems I was so absorbed in the battle that I caused injuries.

58: Japan Otaku Reviews

A position where only Rax can truly hold the reins.

59: Japan Otaku Reviews

Well, it’s kind of like the ZAF’s face or Mr. Bushido’s license from Double O, the rank of the lieutenant general.

79: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>59

If you’re in a lower rank, it seems like those who think bad thoughts might come out…

82: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>79

The commander is giving orders to Prince Kira, so Kagari is being considerate.

60: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

At that time, the only survival character who was doing a proper job for their rank was Izark, who is only a lieutenant colonel… Even the minister Jagann is also a lieutenant colonel.

64: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>60

Was the attack on civilians by the army a hindrance?

67: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>64

The rank system in ZAFAT itself is…

This was introduced urgently because problems would arise when creating a joint investment force with other countries after DESTINY.

It seems that the army has been formed without a general and is composed of lower officers and non-commissioned officers.

61: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx8

It’s a bit late to say this, but there aren’t that many people in this country who have experienced the military.

63: Japan Otaku Reviews

In our country, there is a precedent for military personnel being part of the imperial family.

Before the Orb Union Principality became the East Asia Republic in the Unification War, the Japan archipelago was subdued by the China-Korea Allied Forces.

It is a country that was effectively created by a large number of Japanese engineers and their families who became refugees, so there is a precedent for this.

65: Japan Otaku Reviews

Although it’s another work, Flit, who is also a lieutenant general and the Supreme Commander of the Earth Federation, is also on the front lines.

68: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think Jagannath is equivalent to a general.

69: Japan Otaku Reviews

Orb’s recovery from the seeds is thanks to Kira’s OS royalties, and the M1 Astray was completed thanks to Kira. The Eclipse was also made from the data of Freedom that Kira brought back, and it’s laughable how much more he has contributed to Orb than Kagari.

70: Japan Otaku Reviews

The ZAFT army of various ambiguous ranks in white, red, and green was functioning quite well.

73: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>70

There’s also black.

83: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>73

I’m only wearing it like a politician, but there are also purple and teal.

77: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>70

In ZAFT, there is originally no rank system.

The color of the clothes is a role that each member should fulfill, and there is no enforcement from the orders.

A request carried out with the understanding of all personnel who received the instructions.

72: Japan Otaku Reviews

In Kira’s case, it seems that if we don’t give her a higher position, there could be various problems.

76: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>72

Because he’s Kagari’s older brother.

75: Japan Otaku Reviews

ZAFT is an organization that originally developed from a volunteer army.

78: Japan Otaku Reviews

After watching “The First,” I decided not to worry about the fact that the princes of the Principality of Zeon, led by Colonel Char, were casually appearing on the battlefield.

Even the esteemed ones have cheap lives!

81: Japan Otaku Reviews

The brains of the Orb citizens have burned out.

84: Japan Otaku Reviews

Rather, since the time of the seed, Kira has been doing a lot of things that get on my nerves, Orb.

I felt like I was creating strikes with my own problems, and just when I thought I was helping the guerrillas, I got hit; there were also guys aiming for popularity behind our backs that we didn’t even know about.

85: Japan Otaku Reviews

Since you are admired as Kira by the military, it’s okay to make personnel decisions among family members.

86: Japan Otaku Reviews

When you list your achievements, you’re nothing but a hero who saves the country, Kira.

87: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’ll hold down the Messiah with Eternal, so everyone else should go for Requiem. But I can’t say that in a lower rank…

88: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>80

Since it’s been treated as if it never happened, will you forgive me? You’ll forgive me, right?

89: Japan Otaku Reviews

ZAFT was originally a volunteer army, so there were no ranks.

90: Japan Otaku Reviews

The hero of the nation, the younger brother of the head of state, and the lover of the songstress.

It seems like I’m being chased by paparazzi to the point of dying.

91: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you can substitute for your fighting strength and have a high rank, you probably won’t participate, but you’re incredibly strong to the point that it’s not even worth debating.

It’s fine now that Kagari can also handle Aslan’s situation, but there are quite a few times when I’m the primary force, so we’re really short on manpower.

92: Japan Otaku Reviews

Currently, in ZAFT, the highest-ranking managerial position is held by a lieutenant colonel.

Captain Konoe, who was matched in rank with Maru in the result dispatch group, is the highest-ranking military officer.

93: Japan Otaku Reviews

So could it be that ZAFD didn’t have any orders and I could choose not to participate in unpleasant missions?
