[Mobile Suit Gundam] It’s become clear that he is less popular compared to Char.

1: Japan Otaku Reviews

There’s no way to expand on a conversation with a curly-haired person.

2: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx50

But maybe, if we compare it to the One Year War, Char is more popular.

In Z, we align.

I think Amuro’s is better in Char’s Counterattack.

3: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx18

I’m just an incredibly strong pilot, so I won’t be able to leave my name for future generations.

4: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx24

If this guy shows up, the conversation will end…

5: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

I think Amuro in Char’s Counterattack has accumulated too much virtue.

Why is that guy acting like a saint?

6: Japan Otaku Reviews

Even if they release a Zaku specialized for Amuro, it’s just… that’s how it is, I guess.

7: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

Do something like a leader who will be remembered in the future; you’re just doing pilot work all the time.

It is believed that Char is also thinking this inwardly.

8: Japan Otaku Reviews

If it’s thanks to Char that Axis was stopped, then whose doing was it that made it fall?

9: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m in the top class as a pilot, but…

Masaharu has no skills or charisma that are understood outside the military.

At most, leading on-site is the best I can do…

10: Japan Otaku Reviews

Honestly, I don’t want to be relied on, yet I’m relied on by everyone, Char.

Amuro is only relied on at the scene.

11: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s frustrating when new types can only solve things with force!

12: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx14

We both think that someone as amazing as you should be able to do it.

14: Japan Otaku Reviews

In the novel version, they get killed and it’s a complete disaster.

15: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx12

Despite appearing so much, there’s no depth given to the character at all.

I think it’s a weakness of Tomino that it’s just vague strength.

16: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx10

Amuro rapidly grew in the first series and became mentally stable.

It’s true that watching Char, who is full of confusion, is more enjoyable.

18: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Do not demand that soldiers do more than just fight and win.

19: Japan Otaku Reviews

Isolated until the age of 15.

Sent to war at 15, under house arrest for 7 years after the end of the war, immersed in alcohol.

After that, he died after six years of war.

20: Japan Otaku Reviews

Well, if you put it that way, there is indeed a part that seems too detached.

22: Japan Otaku Reviews

Even if someone follows me saying they’re happy in places I can’t see, I can’t help but feel that it’s more about that, you know?

23: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s hard to imagine what a perm would be like.

25: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Unlike you, I can’t just be a pilot!

It’s nice to see Char feeling angry.

Well, it might be a little pathetic, but…

26: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Char is the prince of Zeon and the king of Neo Zeon, so he is definitely flashy and easy to handle.

27: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

It feels less like being calm and more like a sense of resignation towards my generation.

It feels like we can’t do anything now, so let’s connect to the future and find hope.

It looks like clinging to Rondo Bell is just searching for a place to die.

28: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx10

It’s been clear for a long time that I’m less popular than Char…

29: Japan Otaku Reviews

No matter how far I go, I’ll always remain just a soldier.

30: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think not being able to use my voice is also a big factor…

31: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think it’s also because Char is too easy to use.

32: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Because the voice is that of a sex offender.

33: Japan Otaku Reviews

The level of calmness that seems unlikely for a new type, who tends to be unstable due to high empathy.

34: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx11

In fact, it seems that fans are only interested in Amuro’s strong aspects, and the weak and dark parts shown after Z are hardly discussed at all.

Char is endlessly debated over just one sentence…

35: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx9

After making so many units specifically for Amuro Ray, what do you mean now?!

36: Japan Otaku Reviews

Isn’t it too much to have even Gundam taken by Char, destroying dignity?

37: Japan Otaku Reviews

Amuro and Machu are proof that there are monsters, inseparable sides, that won’t be seen in the world if a button is fastened incorrectly somewhere.

38: Japan Otaku Reviews

Amuro and Char are both overestimating each other.

39: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Not just Amuro, but Bright has also been continuously serving on battleships, and it’s still unclear what he’s doing in his private life.

Tomino is really bad at deeply portraying characters.

41: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx10

In Z, he still showed a naive side, but in Char’s Counterattack, he had completely become a professional soldier.

It’s not a bad thing, you know…

42: Japan Otaku Reviews

I kind of like Beltorchika Children more.

43: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

After all, this guy is based on Gundam, isn’t it?

46: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx7

Mr. Amuro is super strong! Other good points aren’t often discussed…

Well, the fact that they’re a mechanic-type pilot is already pretty unique and I like it…

48: Japan Otaku Reviews

Although Amuro was active in the One Year War piloting the Gundam, he was just one of many aces within the larger organization of the Federation.

Char, who fought with the smaller forces of Zeon compared to the Federation, likely became well-known as an ace within Zeon, making his achievements easily recognized even by the lower-ranking soldiers.

I think it’s likely that Char was the one who became relatively well-known.

50: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx6

Amuro’s growth and struggles were fully depicted in the First, so it’s fine.

51: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx19

When I properly watched the 1st TV version, the protagonist was quite likable.

52: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

In the first place, Tenpa has not graduated from the military academy, so he cannot rise above the rank of captain.

(According to the regulations of the Federal Army, you cannot become a commissioned officer or higher without graduating from a military academy.)

So if the perm gets any more important, he has no choice but to enter the military academy.

The higher-ups of the federal army are really cautious, so I probably can’t go to the officer academy, and it’s likely that I wouldn’t go even based on my personality.

53: Japan Otaku Reviews

Wow…!

54: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m growing, but I’m a fragile geek.

55: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx11

Since I’ve grown into a proper adult, there’s no need to speak deeply compared to Char, whose pathetic side serves as a spice.

56: Japan Otaku Reviews

Amuro from Char’s Counterattack is cool, but he’s too calm.

57: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s like the creators have no interest in the thread, or rather, there are only people who absolutely love Char.

60: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Suddenly, Bosch has become very popular, and it has a unique presence.

61: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx10

Char’s seasoning is too strong.

62: Japan Otaku Reviews

I was thinking that if it’s Zeek Ax, it might be difficult to portray Amuro as an ordinary person, but if it’s settled within one cour, there might not be enough time.

64: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

In games like Super Robot Wars, the reliable Captain of the Londo Bell is usually in an unwavering position, so yeah.

65: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Well, ignoring everything else, he’s just a red weirdo wearing a mask on the battlefield…

66: Japan Otaku Reviews

In product collaborations, it’s mostly Char, and Amuro is rarely used.

68: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Yoshikazu Yasuhiko, even though he says he dislikes Char, was always messing with Char in The Origin.

69: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

At the time of Char’s Counterattack, they were still at an age where they could probably enter the officer academy.

Amuro probably didn’t have any desire to be promoted to a rank higher than that of a major.

Even if the federation army were to recognize the enrollment, it would likely be difficult for the teaching side as well.

An ace pilot who survived the One Year War has achievements that far surpass those of the instructor.

70: Japan Otaku Reviews

A normal boy who feels a bit uneasy about directly stepping on Zeon soldiers.

71: Japan Otaku Reviews

In the end, Char making a shocking confession that he sees Lalah as a mother is too intense.

75: Japan Otaku Reviews

Since it’s just an individual, there’s no reason to revive Amuro with something like the vibe of Aflanshi or being completely naked…

78: Japan Otaku Reviews

You can make Char do anything, so it’s easy to bring him out…

79: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

But I want to be friends with this one overwhelmingly more than with Char.

81: Japan Otaku Reviews

In the new Giren’s Ambition, there is a picture of Amuro who has become better than a plasterer.

He probably entered the officer course.

82: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s understandable that the brain gets fried at the end of Char’s Counterattack.

83: Japan Otaku Reviews

Char is like a protagonist from the early Universal Century, so to speak.

84: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx10

Amuro is halfway merged with the Gundam legend.

85: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’ve loved young Amuro since childhood, but since Char’s Counterattack, he has appeared much less—less than 1/10 compared to Char’s related characters—so it’s understandable that fewer people have an interest in him.

86: Japan Otaku Reviews

Perhaps many people who are not interested in Gundam mistakenly think that the one piloting a Gundam is Char.

Recently, that has somehow really become true.

87: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx12

Honestly, I really like adult Amuro because he’s so cool.

89: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx7

I feel like the greatness of Gundam and the greatness of Amuro are integrated into one.

92: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

It’s not that he has no human charm at all, but most of the reason for his popularity is probably because “he’s a Gundam pilot.”

93: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx9

Amuro is undoubtedly popular too.

Char is one of the most popular characters in anime history, not just in Gundam.

94: Japan Otaku Reviews

The escape from A Baoa Qu is such an amazing scene.

95: Japan Otaku Reviews

Once you reach the rank of major or higher, doesn’t it become difficult to be deployed to the front lines?

It seems that the opportunities to pilot mobile suits will decrease at least.

To do what you want at the rank of major or above, you really need to create an organization like Char.

96: Japan Otaku Reviews

If I stay alive, there might have been a path where I could come out and thrive like Grandpa Jupiter.

Because it caused a miracle and then disappeared.

97: Japan Otaku Reviews

The story is about whether it’s more interesting to see Amuro, who is growing up properly as an adult, or Char, who remains a bit pathetic no matter how much time passes. Amuro is the one who’s admirable and cool, after all…

But being interesting is stronger than being great and cool.

99: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx6

Well, I think there’s also an aspect where Camille, who is extremely vivid, being the main character in the second installment makes everything else feel relatively weak.

100: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

The extreme NT-ness of the final episode of First is amazing.

Why do you create a continuation of a story that ended so beautifully?

101: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

I think the organization of the Federation was too big for Amuro to thrive.

103: Japan Otaku Reviews

In the Gundam general election, Char was ranked higher.

I think Amuro was next after that.

104: Japan Otaku Reviews

During the time of Char’s Counterattack, Amuro somehow got promoted and obtained his qualifications as a member of the Diet (which can also be obtained by Federation soldiers).

There are some materials that suggest I wanted to enter politics, but…

Before doing that, I have to stop Char, so I can’t focus on anything else right now.

105: Japan Otaku Reviews

“Char completely destroyed everything, including the possibility of growing steadily, finding a good partner, and starting a family.”

106: Japan Otaku Reviews

If I talk about the New Type theory during the era of being pampered, is it that the world isn’t catching on and I’m being treated like Shigeo Nagashima?

108: Japan Otaku Reviews

The side that disposes of the kids that come close and the side that cannot take responsibility and thus cannot get deeply involved.

110: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m not going to create Amuro’s Karaba era!

112: Japan Otaku Reviews

I don’t think “Char’s special” will be understood anymore.

113: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Even if I survive the Axis drop, it feels like I would be left to die slowly by the Federation.

Wasn’t Mr. Bright treated exactly like that?

114: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx6

Amuro is also quite popular at the top level, but it’s no surprise that Char is a tough opponent.

Interestingly, it is the exact opposite of the comparison between Amuro and Char as pilots.

120: Japan Otaku Reviews

It seems that Amuro is also well-liked by the other crew members besides Bosch.

121: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

In “Char’s Counterattack,” Amuro only has the role of the protagonist against Char…

In that movie, it’s all Char driving the story.

123: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Amuro has a limited area to move around and there’s no place to play.

124: Japan Otaku Reviews

Everyone has been thinking that someone else will do it, leaving it for years and trying to pass it on to the next generation, but the fact that Char steps onto the stage taking responsibility for it is certainly egotistical, yet somewhat likable.

What I’m trying to do is a mix of madness and a huge gamble, but when it comes to whether there’s a better alternative, I really don’t know…

125: Japan Otaku Reviews

After all, you’re Amuro, aren’t you…?

127: Japan Otaku Reviews

Good or bad, Amuro is a character where the director’s manipulation doesn’t really come into play.

128: Japan Otaku Reviews

The protagonist on the side of the establishment tends to be passive and often only acts after an incident occurs.

129: Japan Otaku Reviews

If they’re the kind of person whose stocks won’t drop even after a counterattack, then they can do pretty much anything and create opportunities left and right.

130: Japan Otaku Reviews

If Char hadn’t done unnecessary things, would he have become a politician!?

132: Japan Otaku Reviews

If Char managed Amuro and occasionally went to the battlefield together, both of them would look happy.

133: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s funny just because Char does something.

It’s just interesting to watch someone eat.

135: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx10

But no matter what they say, I think everyone would get really excited if a super strong Amuro came out in Zeek Axes.

136: Japan Otaku Reviews

Isn’t Amuro going to Anaheim after retiring?

140: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

It’s been fairly well written in “Survival if” that politicians are trying to change the federation from within through steady efforts.

Well, I think it’s quite tough.

141: Japan Otaku Reviews

If Amuro is okay with the Federation’s system, that’s one thing, but since he wants to reform it, it’s a bit complicated.

142: Japan Otaku Reviews

He can command the army and if he goes to the front lines to fight, he is almost undefeated.

Char, who can even engage in politics and create sympathizers even among the enemy Federation, is capable of doing too much all by himself.

143: Japan Otaku Reviews

Amuro, the new member of parliament, is being targeted by hate tanks from other party members around Goff.

144: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

I failed during an interview when I was a teenager.

After more than 10 years of being shaped by society and using various connections, I’ve become capable of even creating specialized mobile suits. When I think about it carefully, I might actually have the qualities for a political career.

146: Japan Otaku Reviews

To succeed as a politician, one must have more cunning.

147: Japan Otaku Reviews

I like the conflict between the sense suited for battles like 1st or Z and a personality that is not suited for fighting.

That’s why in “Char’s Counterattack,” there was both a sense of reliability and sadness at the same time.

150: Japan Otaku Reviews

Amuro from Zeak Ax should just tinker with machines while being taken care of by Frau.

151: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wonder if I’ve become an engineer following in my father’s footsteps.

152: Japan Otaku Reviews

Actually, if it’s a route that doesn’t involve the White Base, I wonder if Amuro will succeed his father.

154: Japan Otaku Reviews

If Director Tsurumaki and Anno are going to bring Amuro out, they’ll probably make him extremely strong and amplify his abilities to the max.

They are the kind of people who don’t want to see a weak Amuro.

155: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s harder to find a character more popular than Char in Gundam, so not being as popular as Char isn’t really a discredit, right?

156: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m not someone with high communication skills.

Amuro probably isn’t cut out to be a politician.

It seems like they will be treated as someone who talks vaguely and is a bit crazy since they might not be good at verbalizing things around New Types.

157: Japan Otaku Reviews

Compared to Char, who has a legitimate lineage and connections everywhere, Amuro, who has only operated within the scope of a soldier for better or worse, has too weak of a network.

158: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wonder what kind of world it would have been if Ryuu had died without protecting Amuro.

161: Japan Otaku Reviews

According to the novel standards, Amuro has failed to gain support from the masses.

162: Japan Otaku Reviews

Well, there isn’t really any clear definition of what success would be…

“There’s a saying that prosperity must decline, and the decline of the federation and the space war era will happen sooner or later.”

163: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

While it’s quite amusing to see Amuro eating curry in the CoCo Ichibanya collaboration, he can’t compete with Char.

165: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

I mean, even if you don’t have a strong attachment to Amuro, portraying a weak Amuro at this point would probably be too terrifying in terms of fan reactions…

166: Japan Otaku Reviews

Amuro is also cooperating to form Londo Bell, just in case.

It’s not that I can’t do organized or administrative tasks.

169: Japan Otaku Reviews

A big brother who loves tinkering with machines and is dealing in illegal parts…

172: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think Amuro’s final mobile suit should definitely have a design that is very similar to the 1st!

173: Japan Otaku Reviews

Even if the original work makes them strong and a punching bag, no one complains…

I think Yazaan would be good, right?

177: Japan Otaku Reviews

A super strong person with a unique hairstyle in the clan battle…

Well, even if they do come out, it doesn’t seem likely to be a flashy appearance.

178: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Since Z, Amuro has become better at handling women, so he gives the impression of having significantly improved communication skills.

184: Japan Otaku Reviews

Z Amuro simply has fewer appearances… Still, it seems like he might come after Quattro and Kamiyu.

185: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wonder if they can’t show a strong Amuro too much because it’s set in Gundam.

Even if Char ends up being a punching bag, I won’t really complain about it.

187: Japan Otaku Reviews

Since the start was a child caught up in war, it’s a bit too much to subject them to too much pity.

188: Japan Otaku Reviews

There are also some bad parts with the voice actors.

191: Japan Otaku Reviews

In the first place, Amuro isn’t piloting an MS in the Zaku Ax, so it doesn’t seem like there’s any weakness at all.

On the contrary, it seems like Char will get carried away, make mistakes, and disappear, regardless of the life.

193: Japan Otaku Reviews

Temu didn’t interact much with Amuro as a parent, but he cared about Amuro deeply.

Amuro didn’t particularly hate his father; rather, he even respected him.
