[Mobile Suit Gundam] I don’t know much about Gundam, but is Newtype like a form of precognition?

2: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx54

I want to know that.

3: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wonder what a Newtype is…

4: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

At that moment, something mysterious happened!

6: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx6

The more you know, the more it just makes you wonder what it is, right?

7: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

The interpretation of the great master also changes over time.

8: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx12

A new type refers to a race of people who do not have to engage in war.

Everyone appearing in Gundam is just an esper.

There has been no innovation in people.

9: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx7

It’s just saying all the abilities that I don’t really understand are called new types.

10: Japan Otaku Reviews

The last Gundam that Tomino worked on, which likely featured Newtypes, was V Gundam, and it was treated as a kind of Esper.

In that case, what Judeau did in stopping bullets might not have been NT abilities, but a type of psychokinesis.

11: Japan Otaku Reviews

There are various types of people depending on the work, such as those suited for piloting, espers, experimental subjects, or tools for battle.

Generally, I tend to lead an unfortunate life.

12: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

What is a psychic?

13: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

It’s not like humanity will evolve in just about 100 years after leaving space!

15: Japan Otaku Reviews

Rather than predicting abilities, it is someone who reads thoughts with heightened sensitivity and behaves in a way that resembles predictive abilities.

I can also do things like telepathy.

16: Japan Otaku Reviews

I thought it was just a little bit of foresight or a premonition, but it turns out it’s used fully.

17: Japan Otaku Reviews

People who see glittering hallucinations.

19: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

“In the U.C. 100s, it seems that some amazing guys were called Newtypes.”

20: Japan Otaku Reviews

In later generations, there will be things that heal injuries, so it’s really unclear.

21: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

“Zikuax looks like some kind of slang for yak.”

22: Japan Otaku Reviews

I don’t really understand the reasoning behind how Newtypes can use funnels.

What is the mechanism of a funnel…?

23: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

It must be about the new humanity that has adapted to space.

The misfortune was that the ability was too effective as a weapon of war rather than for connecting people.

24: Japan Otaku Reviews

Having precognition abilities

I can use telepathy.

You can use telekinesis through the machine.

Arguing or fighting.

I can do it.

25: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx8

You’ll understand if you play the game.

They are someone with a high ability to use psychoframe weapons and dodge while hitting.

26: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx12

There are sometimes individuals who are grouped as Newtypes, but they actually have different abilities…

27: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Everyone is just saying whatever they want about the ideal evolved human image that I seriously thought of.

28: Japan Otaku Reviews

In terms of setting, there may be various things, but as you can see in the story, they are a superpowered individual.

31: Japan Otaku Reviews

What is the name of that instrument that makes the sound “piroriroroon”?

32: Japan Otaku Reviews

Are Psychics the same as New Types?

33: Japan Otaku Reviews

For now, the effect that sparkles on the head is NT.

35: Japan Otaku Reviews

There are so many different kinds of Newtypes.

Is it just Char and Amuro?

36: Japan Otaku Reviews

You will gain the ability to communicate with the spirit world through UCNT.

37: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx7

Even though it’s a spin-off work, the aggressive monkey’s NT was overly sarcastic.

39: Japan Otaku Reviews

Unless you are a Newtype, the psychommu cannot pick up brain waves, and without the high spatial awareness unique to Newtypes, it cannot be effectively used.

40: Japan Otaku Reviews

Okay, Flexa.

42: Japan Otaku Reviews

Incredible ability to anticipate!

You can use the funnel!

You can capture and defeat the enemy without relying on what you can see!

It’s fine to just be like NT…

45: Japan Otaku Reviews

I understand that someone is there.

I don’t understand the meaning of creating a barrier.

47: Japan Otaku Reviews

It seems that because Fukui arbitrarily positioned himself as a psychic, the subsequent works ended up struggling, which might have led to the idea of doing an “if” scenario.

49: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx6

In the UC world, Minovsky particles that react to brainwaves and create mysterious phenomena are crazier than newtypes.

50: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

The NT abilities seen in the work are merely the seeds of human innovation.

Most people have abilities that are ahead of them, but their mentality hasn’t caught up.

51: Japan Otaku Reviews

From the proposer

It was a vague statement, like humanity that awakened something due to the brain in space life, so it couldn’t be helped.

52: Japan Otaku Reviews

Isn’t it true that the original character Sharia only appears in one episode?

53: Japan Otaku Reviews

It seems that I can also impose my memories and emotions on the other person.

I have thought that these guys could potentially be used as the mind-control rod characters in adult manga if they wanted to.

54: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx6

Char should have realized at that point, when Lalah, born on Earth, turned out to be a powerful Newtype, that “this is different from what my father was saying.”

55: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

There is a possibility of becoming an ideological NT if one has the abilities of an NT, but it seems that merely having the abilities of an NT does not guarantee that one will become so, which is a tedious topic.

56: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

The logic that we don’t need to go to war because we can understand each other is too hypocritical.

All that will happen is that we understand each other and realize we cannot coexist.

So let’s become whole together…

57: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

It feels like we are rather regressing to something like ancient shamans, as it starts to connect directly with strange occult things, that’s just my personal impression.

58: Japan Otaku Reviews

What would happen if all of humanity became Newtypes?

Will it become world peace like 00?

61: Japan Otaku Reviews

Even the NT of Ohage and the NT of Yassan are differing, so NT is free.

65: Japan Otaku Reviews

The director of the first Gundam created the concept of Newtypes as a justification for why civilians could operate robots at first glance.

Furthermore, the theme of human innovation was added to delve deeper into the topic, but I became troubled by the question of how innovation can be achieved, which led to only examples of failure coming to light.

66: Japan Otaku Reviews

Amuro is a Newtype, so the moment he boarded the Gundam…

I understand all the controls now!

68: Japan Otaku Reviews

It can be said ironically that psychic abilities can also be applied to murder.

69: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

Just because you are a Newtype doesn’t mean you can understand each other; it’s clear from the line “Don’t trample into people’s lives!”

71: Japan Otaku Reviews

It just means I have a talent for killing people.

74: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wish people would stop assuming that all otaku in their 40s and 50s have watched Gundam.

76: Japan Otaku Reviews

Isn’t the new type of X whether it can operate the flash system?

77: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Honestly, the Universal Century series gives the impression that it’s more realistic compared to other Gundam series, doesn’t it?

The depiction is quite extravagant, isn’t it?

79: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

True innovation in a person comes from having the capacity to accept others after mutual understanding; thus, a narrow-minded person will not achieve anything worthwhile even if they become aware of their abilities.

83: Japan Otaku Reviews

AGE boldly declared it was not evolution but rather devolution.

84: Japan Otaku Reviews

That aside, the ability for a human to do something like telepathy on their own is quite convenient, or gives a sense of functional enhancement.

85: Japan Otaku Reviews

It just seems like even if all of humanity became Newtypes, they still wouldn’t be able to understand each other.

88: Japan Otaku Reviews

If all of humanity becomes Newtypes, we can innovate as a whole.

89: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

First of all, the founders of NT, the Zondai-kun, did not expect psychic powers…

91: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s a world where no one can negotiate to find a compromise, avoiding conflicts wrapped in soft words.

92: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

In the first place, X-rounders and Newtypes are different things…

95: Japan Otaku Reviews

It proves that Camille, Haman, and Scirocco cannot understand each other.

96: Japan Otaku Reviews

There’s a story that Char’s dad said that a Newtype is actually like this!

It’s not necessarily the case that this aligns with reality.

102: Japan Otaku Reviews

Maybe Axis doesn’t know why it shines either.

103: Japan Otaku Reviews

The development of the Psycho Frame is done by Neo Zeon’s engineers, not Anaheim…

104: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Is someone who can sense killing intent or move a psychoframe really the same as what Zeon Daikun referred to as human innovation? Aren’t they actually separate concepts?

105: Japan Otaku Reviews

I don’t know why it’s working, but I’ll operate it.

106: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

X Rounders are not very useful outside of combat unless they are really powerful.

Animal instincts are fairly on point.

108: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s because we have a physical body that we’re bound to the third dimension.

If we could become pure spirit, I can understand that a fourth-dimensional or fifth-dimensional being might someday be able to control time.

“Because we have bodies, we can do it! I understand.”

109: Japan Otaku Reviews

In AGE, the Super Pilot is more impressive than the X-Rounder.

112: Japan Otaku Reviews

Even among New Types, they just barge in with their shoes on and kill you!!

114: Japan Otaku Reviews

Well, if it reaches its extreme, reading someone’s mind can indeed become supplementary in terms of understanding each other, but the ability to read minds can also be used to harm the other person.

117: Japan Otaku Reviews

Neotypes, you know! They’re weapons of war!

118: Japan Otaku Reviews

Metaphorically, it’s a justification for why a machine enthusiast can thrive against regular troops.

It’s okay to recognize that person as incredibly strong.

120: Japan Otaku Reviews

It seems that Hamaan and Judau were able to understand each other in the end.

I wonder why Camille didn’t work out.

121: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Therefore, what Director Tomino calls “Newtype” involves the mental aspect as well, and he was never able to show the way to reach that state until the end.

124: Japan Otaku Reviews

In the world of sambo, it feels like I’m no longer just a superhuman, right?

It’s seriously unbelievable that a machine that an ordinary person can’t even activate can shoot a beam that penetrates Solomon’s rock formation when piloted by a Newtype… what even is that power?

It might be relatively close to the world of Gik Ax.

125: Japan Otaku Reviews

It was Tomino who created the concept of Newtype, yet he seems to want to deny it himself.

126: Japan Otaku Reviews

Even people in the past used fire without understanding why things burned and flames appeared.

127: Japan Otaku Reviews

No matter how it goes, it will only be used for conflict, and even if it feels like I’ve gained something, it’s accompanied by regret.

Innovation is very difficult to achieve.

129: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

Men’s minds are all about war! The true New Type is pure women and children!

In the Universal Century, both women and children easily become immersed in war and grow more militant, rather than just being ordinary.

131: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

It was interesting to see that X rounders were perceived as not just specialized for combat but rather as being somewhat degenerated compared to humans.

133: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’ve heard that the principles of how airplanes fly are not completely understood… They just fly because that’s how it works…

136: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

It is humanity’s foolishness to turn even the ability to understand each other into a tool of war.

137: Japan Otaku Reviews

I haven’t seen the old Gundam, but I kind of think it involves something like nanomachines and exchanging information? That’s just my assumption.

138: Japan Otaku Reviews

Indeed, looking at everything again, the concept of Newtype is vague.

139: Japan Otaku Reviews

What is a Newtype… What is human innovation…

140: Japan Otaku Reviews

The Sambo was not Solomon, but Lunacy…

I’ve never seen a work as strong as Brau-Bro.

141: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Originally, science is meant to clarify this world created by God.

142: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

The protagonist and rival have special abilities that make them stronger than others!

When I created a common setting, it turned out like this.

143: Japan Otaku Reviews

There was no reason beyond justifying the convenient development of a gloomy kid, who only had the ability to tinker with machinery, suddenly becoming a pilot and achieving great success, but hey, Newtype.

As a result of fans getting overly invested and analyzing, it became increasingly complicated.

146: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

New types are amazing! Let’s squeeze them into MS without being able to move or talk!

150: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Amid everyone resonating with AGE and going “Waaaah!”, Assem’s reaction of “What, what?” was just too funny.

151: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Well… it seems like everyone doesn’t understand the sense of distance with others…

152: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

In Sanbol, the ability to take on poison injected into others is like, what even is that…?

Even if you’re a psychic, what the heck is that!

153: Japan Otaku Reviews

As a monkey that has moved from the jungle to the plain stands up to examine the surrounding dangers and learns to use its arms to attack with objects.

Humanity, having ventured into the unknown world of space, has had its animalistic instincts and intuition exposed to confront the dangers around them, which can be regarded not so much as evolution but rather as a regression where primitive instincts have come to the surface, according to I’s evaluation of X-rounders.

155: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

No matter how much you awaken your abilities, as long as you’re causing turmoil, you probably aren’t a true NT in the original sense.

156: Japan Otaku Reviews

Since NT in a philosophical sense is contradictory, one can only define it as someone who can use psycho-communication…

157: Japan Otaku Reviews

Since Zeknova has appeared, the future of New Types is bright.

163: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

I like DOME-kun’s interpretation the most.

166: Japan Otaku Reviews

Improving spatial awareness in the unknown direction of outer space.

Communication without reliance on voice in a soundless universe.

An ability to foresee the future like foresight.

Considering the idea of a new humanity adapted to outer space makes sense, but it is too advantageous in combat.

167: Japan Otaku Reviews

The three kids who awakened their power with the feeling that you guys at First Trust are the new type of the new era ended up just becoming ordinary people, and it was sad…

168: Japan Otaku Reviews

A Newtype is a human evolution, right?

If you’re asking what human innovation is, that’s something you have to discover for yourself.

169: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

In the first place, the whole and a proper whole are different concepts.

171: Japan Otaku Reviews

A woman who doesn’t allow Nyan to interrupt between her and Shuji.

173: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

If it means human innovation, then as long as you’re not truly doing innovative things, you’re just a superhuman.

174: Japan Otaku Reviews

Shar Kawauso has a good combat instinct, but cannot participate in Resonance…

179: Japan Otaku Reviews

The interpretation of new types as just having adapted to the space environment or as monkeys’ new types feels like it denies the deification of new types.

182: Japan Otaku Reviews

In a weightless environment without the concept of up and down, humans’ spatial recognition abilities have developed dramatically… but it turns out that they can also perceive the murderous intent of others, see mysterious spaces, and even push back asteroids.

184: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

The One Year War occurred, and the innovation of humanity that gave birth to Newtypes all stemmed from Shinya Ueda.

186: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Face forward and carve out the future.

Let’s change the world for the better.

That kind of action is precisely the innovation of people…

187: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

Recently people say “Fukui is bad” too much, but aren’t we overusing the term “new type”? It’s been raised to an incredible level, and this started back in the Z era, so it’s mostly the staff from that time who are to blame.

I don’t think the fans’ excitement is particularly relevant.

188: Japan Otaku Reviews

When you’re young and not overthinking things, your NT ability probably increases more easily.

190: Japan Otaku Reviews

In simple terms, it’s someone who can sense the urge to go before feeling it.
