Tue, Jun 21, 2022 10:11 PM
a lot of other gundam shows start with mobile suits sneaking into a space colony to attack it

@Overbringer

"What were you planning on wearing today?"
Gabiluzbad
@Overbringer
Tue, Jun 21, 2022 10:12 PM
I don't think Amuro was planning on getting dressed
Gabiluzbad
@Overbringer
Tue, Jun 21, 2022 10:13 PM
How old is Amuro supposed to be?
Gabiluzbad
@Overbringer
Tue, Jun 21, 2022 10:14 PM
I assumed he was nebulously a teenager but he's apparently old enough to drive

@yurisoldier
Tue, Jun 21, 2022 10:16 PM
my advice is to watch it like it's Speed Racer
oh i'm scary
@yurisoldier
Tue, Jun 21, 2022 10:16 PM
it's not Speed Racer
oh i'm scary
@yurisoldier

@Overbringer
Tue, Jun 21, 2022 10:23 PM
Fuck she would have died too if she hadn't tried to run after Amuro
Gabiluzbad
@Overbringer
Tue, Jun 21, 2022 10:24 PM
I love that Amuro is just carrying around the fucking manual

Gabiluzbad
@Overbringer
Tue, Jun 21, 2022 10:32 PM
kinda weird that the narrator is speaking japanese but then I hear him say the years as "Double-oh seventy nine"
Gabiluzbad
@Overbringer
Tue, Jun 21, 2022 10:35 PM
Almost all the actual soldiers are just dead
Gabiluzbad
@Overbringer
Tue, Jun 21, 2022 10:38 PM
Okay the Zeon guys are almost out of ammo
Gabiluzbad
@Overbringer
Tue, Jun 21, 2022 10:39 PM

Gabiluzbad
@Overbringer
Tue, Jun 21, 2022 10:44 PM
man they had enough parts for 3 more mobile suits
Gabiluzbad
@Overbringer
Tue, Jun 21, 2022 10:44 PM
and they've got to blow them up to keep them out of enemy hands
Gabiluzbad
@Overbringer
Tue, Jun 21, 2022 10:44 PM
that's a bummer
Gabiluzbad
@Overbringer

Char has no weapons that can meaningfully hurt the Gundam
Gabiluzbad
@Overbringer
Tue, Jun 21, 2022 10:51 PM
but Amuro has a 0% hit rate
Cold XC
@UltraDude
Tue, Jun 21, 2022 10:51 PM
"wtf I can't damage it!"
"wtf I can't hit him!"
Gabiluzbad
@Overbringer
Tue, Jun 21, 2022 10:51 PM
Char pulls back because he doesn't realize Amuro is out of ammo
TWO OF THEM
@sanduophon
Tue, Jun 21, 2022 10:52 PM

Gabiluzbad
@Overbringer
Tue, Jun 21, 2022 10:52 PM
Bright IMMEDIATELY starts lecturing Amuro for sucking too much
Gabiluzbad
@Overbringer
Tue, Jun 21, 2022 10:53 PM
he's giving him a chance to bail before they're all committed
Gabiluzbad
@Overbringer
Tue, Jun 21, 2022 10:53 PM
Okay that's enough for now, I think
Rama
@Nerdorama

Gundam keeps copying the opening to 0079 because that opening is phenomenal
