[Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam] I was curious, so I watched episode Z1.

Otaku Review Image

Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:07Yeahx7

Even though there’s quite a distance, I honestly found it hilarious how you could clearly hear and then go in for the punch.
That being said, the Titans are something, but isn’t Camille going a bit overboard with the rampaging…? Why is he acting defiant and causing a scene when he’s finally getting released…?

1: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:09

They said in the commentary that they intentionally portrayed Camille as clearly irritated until he snaps.

2: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:09Yeahx6

As expected, being this eccentric only happens in the first episode, and there is also the fact that her family situation was terrible and she was struggling.
That being said, Camille in episode 1 is seriously a crazy guy.

11: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:17Yeahx9

>>2I saw my dad until he died, but in episode 2, there’s that MP! and making fun of my dad with the cheating story. Even after going into space, isn’t he always an eccentric boy? Camille-kun.

3: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:09Yeahx18

“Aren’t you properly having an inner monologue like ‘What am I doing…'”

9: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:15

>>3It continues to the latter half that no one could understand.

4: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:10

It seems that the scene where they shoot the Vulcan and laugh, which I had heard rumors about, isn’t included in episode 1, so I’m a bit disappointed.

5: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:10

Serves you right!

6: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:11

In the movie version, which should have turned into a beautiful Camille, there’s a crazy person who doesn’t forget the SP Vulcan.

7: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:12Yeahx3

Basically, the Titans are provoking.
Kamille-kun, who doesn’t have much resistance to provocation.

8: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:14

The Boy Who Loses His Temper
Once it explodes, it doesn’t have to stop anymore, huh…

10: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:15Yeahx2

What is NT?
If I am underestimated
I’ll smash you down!

12: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:18

It’s a sequel to that final episode of the first season, and when I’m told that and shown this, I can’t help but feel suspicious about the atmosphere.

13: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:19Yeahx7

>>12If I watch Tomino’s anime in between, I’m not particularly surprised, but I mostly only watch Gundam.

96: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:31

>>12I was really disappointed because I watched from 1st to Z.

14: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:19

There’s no doubt that Jerido is saying it with that nuance.
That being said, honestly receiving thoughts from a distance that you can’t hear seems tough for a Newtype.
It was tough.

15: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:20Yeahx1

Camille had a terrible fight with her family that morning, and although she endured it to come to school, she was also told various things here, and knowing this background makes it quite poignant.

17: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:23

>>15There is some denial, but I do think that Jellid has bad luck after all.

16: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:22Yeahx6

It feels like the First Gundam is creating the essence of Gundam in its own way.

18: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:24

There is too much of a gap between appearance and behavior.

19: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:29

In the beginning, I (the viewer) have a strong feeling of what am I being shown.
I don’t know who to empathize with.

20: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:29Yeahx1

I often get confused because Emma says things that make me think she’s probably the conscience character.

24: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:36

>>20When they started talking about male jealousy right after Camille’s parent died, I thought, “What kind of story is this?!”

21: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:34

I used to see it as normal back then, but now when I look at it, it makes me laugh.

22: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:34

Between a somewhat unstable boy and young man around 17 years old… though it’s too sharp.
But I love you, Camille.

23: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:36

Emma is the serious type of committee chair, so she is strict with Camille as well.

27: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:38

>>23It’s too early to call him the chairperson, and he’s quite hysterical.

25: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:37

Because they skip club activities to see Bright, they don’t seem particularly angry even after getting punched once, so the line drawn is quite clear.

26: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:38

You usually can’t hear whispers from that distance.

28: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:39Yeahx1

I haven’t really thought about empathizing with anyone in anime…
The first chapter is the funniest because Jerid messing up with the mk2 is just too big.

32: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:43Yeahx5

>>28In the G Gen ET digest, I only thought something like “What is this guy doing?” but it turned out there were a lot of victims and it was a huge disaster, which surprised me.
It’s a problem before we even get to the matter of the written apology, right?!

33: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:44Yeahx2

>>32General officers, shut up!

30: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:42

It is clear throughout the story that Fa is a good woman.
I don’t really understand why I’m so into Kamille to that extent, and it’s a bit scary.

31: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:42

Fah is quite unstable because her parents are captured by the Titans, even though she was close to the Camille family.

34: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:45

Jerrid’s three major blunders
– Ticket gate
– Destruction of military facilities due to the Mark II incident
– Dakar

39: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:49

>>34If it weren’t for this, Camille would have been arrested and it would have been the end.

35: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:46

I feel like when I listen to it again, the Dakar speech didn’t say anything that amazing.

37: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:48Yeahx9

>>35I am Char.
The Titans are bad guys.

36: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:46

Since it didn’t cause damage to civilians and just crashed at our own base, it’s safe.

38: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:48

But why was the Mark 2 test being conducted in that colony after all?

41: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:50Yeahx4

>>38It’s the Titans’ base, and the regular army’s methods won’t work there.

40: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:49

That MP over there is way too fierce… but I can imagine that growing up in a family environment where they might want to make snide comments about their dad’s infidelity could be the reason.

42: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:51Yeahx6

I’m sorry for taking over the meeting.
I am Quattro, I am Char, I am the son of Dykun.
The Earth seems to be in trouble.
The bad Titans are attacking even at times like this.

68: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:16

>>42This is really not something you should suddenly say in a federal parliament that has been forcibly suppressed.
If it weren’t for this seemingly artificial nuance, it would definitely be over.

43: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:51

The reason MP did all that during the interrogation was because the original script had MP pressing Camille with the idea that he was a beautiful boy, and thus he must be Brex’s male concubine, which aroused him.

44: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:51

The Mark 2 has arrived! I’m all excited and I’m going to fly around a bit! I can’t just stay put! I wonder if that’s how it was.

45: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:52

By the way, since it wasn’t said in a loud voice but merely muttered, it’s highly likely that Camille sensed it with his NT abilities.

46: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:54

>>45When I first saw it, did I perceive it with a new type of sense due to the direction…? I seriously thought that.

50: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:58

>>46I got so angry and hit you because I understood without any misunderstandings.

47: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:57

It seems that Jerid was bitten even though the novel version only says “Is it a man…”.

48: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:57

I don’t understand Camille’s emotions until the scene where she speaks to Fow.

49: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:58Yeahx5

This is the famous report written by Camille.
This is the famous report written by Camille.

Subject Report A-007818-3205

I, Camille Bidan, deeply apologize for causing significant damage to my unit by carelessly destroying an EQ-D79F type probe during a training mission in the lunar space zone on April 20, UC0087 at 00623 hours. This mistake was due to my immature piloting and situational judgment, and I am keenly aware of the serious responsibility I bear for the significant damage incurred, even if it involved civilians, and I reflect on this matter.

I vow to never allow such an incident to occur again and will strive to improve my efforts, even as a civilian.

April 20, UC0087
Pilot of RX-178 Unit 3, AEU troop Argama
Camille Bidan (Citizen ID#BK70111106)
Camille Bidan Certification
Quattro Bajeena (Captain: Argama Unit)
Astonaige Medōs (Sergeant: Argama Unit)
Henken Beckener (Commander: Captain of Argama)

Personal Note
First and foremost, I apologize for this document. The contents may seem superficially smooth yet vague and lacking in substance. I realize my writing does not suffice for the purpose of ensuring accountability. They seem to be related to the investigation committee’s documentation.

This report is essential for the board of directors, and while it cannot be unnecessary for the transportation, it encompasses an assessment of omissions. I believe this report serves to summarize the dangerous situation encountered by Captain Quattro Bajeena at that time.

In advance, I express a desire for this report to become a reference point for future safety protocols, based on the standards defined in file FGH1210-F646-F08, with Captain Medocks serving to outline the responsibilities and hazards related to this incident.

The matter is consequently being discussed in relation to Quattro Captain’s responsibilities and any required follow-up with operational details, as outlined in file FGH1210-RatsF06-P.

It is clear that Captain Quattro’s actions, though necessary from a civilian standpoint, were not intended to instigate issues. I humbly suggest maintaining oversight even on apparent points, and therefore, I will ensure this public statement complies with the necessary guidelines.

I believe I must receive guidance on how to properly navigate this issue going forward, while remaining committed to improvement.

86: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:27

>>49This dissatisfied face!

51: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)16:59

It’s not like we can become friends just because NTs understand each other thanks to Hamarn… So what even are NTs?

52: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:00Yeahx1

I hate adults! It’s more than enough with the negligence of my parents and their infidelity.
It seems like there’s a rude senpai in karate, and they’re generally irritated with their superiors.

53: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:01

Oh, it’s just a woman…

58: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:07Yeahx1

>>53What’s wrong with a woman having a woman’s name! I’m a woman!👊

54: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:02

As long as Kakurikon is by my side, I can’t feel at ease.

55: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:04

Gundam Mark II!

56: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:05

It seems that in the novel version, they were hit while being read inside their heart.

57: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:06

Fa really doesn’t care at all, so it seems to be heard very faintly.

59: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:09

What kind of attitude should I have taken towards that crazy boy, I wonder?

60: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:09

Originally, Camille really hated the Earth Federation.

61: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:10Yeahx6

But Camille’s parents, the father is awful.
Mom is an ordinary person who comes to pick me up, right?

62: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:11Yeahx4

>>61I think Camille didn’t dislike her mother either.

63: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:12

By the way, it seems that the bald man had decided from the beginning to break Camille.
Considering that, when watching the Z main story, you can see that they are carefully bullying Camille from the beginning to break him down.
Was it really necessary to break it… Well, it broke and became a legendary work, though.

64: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:12Yeahx1

Even with blond hair and sunglasses, I won’t get punched unless there’s something else going on.
Kamille suddenly punches in the lobby right from the beginning; that’s an incredibly sharp knife.

65: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:12Yeahx3

I hate my dad, but it’s really sad to hear him express such age-appropriate weakness, wanting to be a parent.

66: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:14

The first one feels like a war drama in space with a bit of the occult involved.
Z feels really intense.

67: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:15

What is it?

69: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:17

There are some strange depictions where Camille is starting to awaken his NT abilities fairly early on.
If you watch it without knowing that in advance, you’ll think the protagonist is crazy and seeing hallucinations.

70: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:18

Margarita and others like her, Camille knows that they are quite bad people.

71: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:18

Well, I guess you might start seeing hallucinations…

72: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:18Yeahx5

The TV version failed.
Camille seems to be growing because of Kats, even though she is not growing.
In the movie version, we made them grow.

73: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:19

>>72Is it really that easy for a man to be only embraced by a woman?

74: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:20

>>72Jered, who is not growing, is being left behind mentally too much.

75: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:20

Because I was a short-tempered teenager, I had the aptitude for the Aegis.

76: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:21

Can a decent adult even form a revolutionary army?!
Camille, Char, and Wong are all young rebels.

77: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:21

It’s a terrible situation, and I get confused because I end up going through a lot of awful experiences from it.
Isn’t this going a bit too far?
It becomes.

80: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:23

>>77I do what is necessary to that extent.
That aside, the Titans are garbage.

78: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:22

The performance of Hirata in New Testament Z is a bit too hysterical and somewhat scary.

79: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:22

Ultimately, it’s becoming clear that those who spread poison gas are on the side of the establishment, but the introduction is truly just driven by rebellion and impulse.

82: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:25

The television version of Haka believes that space immigration will realistically happen and writes it seriously, so Newtypes are people who can go into space (the theory that they are correct about Char).
The new translation of “The Bald” suggests that humanity cannot achieve space migration, which is why Newtypes are people who can cherish the Earth (as reflected in Camille’s statements that contradict Char’s beliefs).

84: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:26Yeahx3

>>82It has become normal, somehow…

85: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:27Yeahx2

>>84Baldness has also aged.

87: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:28Yeahx5

>>84I lost the battle against Laputa.

94: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:31

>>87Humans can’t live by abandoning the earth and living with the pitiful robots, as was said in Laputa.
Many people at the time speculated that this was Hayao Miyazaki’s criticism of Gundam in anime magazines…

88: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:28

>>84It’s common knowledge that the harshness of the space environment is too much for humanity, even elementary school students know that, rather than just focusing on baldness…

83: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:26

Gradually, the adults fighting on the battlefield are becoming more normal, but in the end, they’ll break down.

89: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:29

When Star Wars was aired, everyone thought that space exploration would make great strides.

90: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:29

In games, Camille is portrayed as a sensible person…

91: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:30

As the bald one matured, so did Camille.
Is Camille really the embodiment of a bald head?

92: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:30

>>91Hehe…

93: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:31

I felt pretty calm around the middle.
The early game is too wild, and the late game receives too many signals.

95: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:31

I am from the generation that watched the moon landing live.

97: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:31

By the way, there’s also a new translation version.
“Only fa is not just an illusion nor merely an existence of consciousness; it can be embraced like this.”
It suggests that the boundary between reality and the NT world was becoming unclear, putting it on the brink of mental breakdown.

98: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:31

There is 100% no fault on Jerid regarding the thread image.
I didn’t mean to mock you just because you’re a man.
Camille? I just thought you might be a cute girl, so I said it…

101: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:33Yeahx1

>>98Well, kicking a soccer ball as revenge for being hit by a crazy person was probably going too far.

103: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:35

>>101If they start apologizing with “I’m sorry for making you feel uncomfortable” after being hit, there’s not a trace of what it means to be Titans…

99: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:32

In fact, it is surprisingly not well known that the Gundam from the original series is quite unique among Gundams.

102: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:33

>>99The script by Hoshiyama is great.

107: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:41

>>99It’s like Kuga.

104: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:35

I can understand why Generation Z is often said to be restless.

105: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:36

>>104Is it Zeta or Zett?

106: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:38

In the second episode, it seems that hitting a battleship’s main gun or making a hole in the outer wall with a bazooka doesn’t really matter to the colony.

108: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:43

>>106I was repairing the hole with something called Torimochi.

109: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:44

The First’s Side 7 is just too fragile to be destroyed by a Zak’s explosion.

110: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:53

I wonder if colonies become sturdier with each generation.

113: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:57

>>110As a result of the colony being destroyed in the first place, they may have done something like seismic reinforcement for other colonies.

114: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:58Yeahx1

>>110In an era where things like MS, beam weapons, and easily destroyable colonies are commonplace, it’s only natural that countermeasures would be taken.
Otherwise, it would be too dangerous.

111: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:54

The initial flavor is the sound of crunching holes appearing in the colony’s walls.

112: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)17:56

I don’t know how powerful the detonation of a nuclear fusion reactor would be…

115: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)18:00

I just can’t believe that a colony could be built at the speed of completely transforming from First to Z era…

116: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/26(Mon)18:01

Amuro was able to grow as a person on the White Base, so his sensitivity became more like that of Old Types.
Camille became that way because there was no opportunity for growth.
When I saw an interview like that, I thought about whether someone amazing as a new type is really that way as a person.
