I posit that the Muramasa version of how you can tell Kuzuki is going to be plot relevant in F/SN from how he comes with his own dramatic lighting is not, as one may think, Suzukawa’s bizarre angry sprite at the end of his class near the beginning but how the only possible reason for Reverend Doshin to look like That is that there’s a nasty-ass H-scene in his future

Beatrice: Ohhhh...Battlerrrr....did you hear that Witches have figured out how to turn a sphere inside out...?

Battler: What's the big deal, then...? Isn't that easy? Just poke a hole through it!

Beatrice: But the point of it is to do it magically...! Using a sphere that cannot be pierced, creased or bent sharply.... but can pass through itself...!

Beatrice: If you say so, then try it, Battler!

Battler: Okay... here goes... I'll just pull the two halfs through eachother!

Beatrice: Watch out, Ushiromiya Battleeeer....! You're pinching it infinitely tight....!

Battler: Uwooooo! It's useless....! It's all useless....It is impossible to turn a sphere inside out...!!

Beatrice: Ohhhh...really...?

Battler: Is this it...a....sphere turning inside out...!? What the fuck!?

Beatrice: KYAHAHAHAHAHAHA....! I DID IT WITH MAGIC....! AHAHAHAHAHA AHAHAHAH *CACKLE*CACKLE*CACKLE*

At this point in think that D&D has more ardent support than lutheranism. And it's adherents are somehow even more annoying.

talking to conservatives as a leftist is so funny sometimes because they’re like “this is the future liberals want” no, liberals don’t actually want to do that. but I do 😈

I still think it's really cool how Amuro starts as the shittiest pilot alive (because he's a 15-year old) that only gets carried because he's in the biggest, fattest stat stick in-universe at the time (a few retroactive additions made in the future notwithstanding), enough that even its crappy vulcan guns are tearing Zaku IIs apart, and when he starts getting a bit too cocky, Char and Ramba Ral show up in objectively inferior pieces of junk and absolutely deliver his pizza, they just drag his face across every available surface in Planet Earth like he's a Yakuza mook, all because they are simply that much better at piloting, and the thing is, Amuro takes that very seriously.

He goes from shitass kid in an unfortunate situation that doesn't want to get in the robot to the most unwell child soldier in the war, which is really saying something, but most importantly, becomes so good at piloting the Gundam that the Gundam physically cannot handle Amuro's piloting. They need to apply "Magnetic Coating" to its joints so they don't fucking snap away from the main frame because Amuro, one, moves too damn well but also in too extreme a way for the frame to handle it, two, despite being equipped with two sabers, a shield, a beam rifle and vulcan guns, Amuro is a stern believer in introducing most everyone in thagomizer range to his Rated Z for Zeon hands, the single most official pair of hands in the business, tax free. He KEEP going Ip Man on these dudes, he does NOT need to do a Jamestown on these mother fuckers but he INSISTS. Somehow even the Gundam Hammer, which is a giant Hannah Barbera cartoon flail-- Ok, look at this thing, words do not do it justice

Even this god damn Tom and Jerry prop is less savage that whatever Amuro decides to do the moment he's done throwing his shield to get a free kill on someone and it officially becomes bed time forever for the unfortunate sap at the business end of his ten-finger weapons of mass destruction.

The RX-78-2, "Gundam" for its friends and family, even has a top of the line cutting edge Learning Computer that 'learns' alongside the pilot and their habits. This data extracted from it was so absolutely fucked up that it completely revolutionized Mobile Suit combat afterwards, which is a wholesome thing to think about when The Best Combat Data Ever came from a really angry, really stressed 15 year old that doesn't even like piloting. He was 15! He made Haro with his own hands! Amuro literally just wanted to make funny cute spherical robofriends! Amuro was out there trying to make Kirby real, but fate had other plans for him. His cloned brain put in a pilot seat is one of the setting's strongest 'pilots'.

They made fucking Shadow the Hedgehog with his brain, god damn.

By the end, Zeon is rolling out Gelgoogs out of its mass production lines. These things are in the Gundam's ballpark in terms of overall specs (or "power level"). Amuro is bodying them as if they were episode 1 Zaku IIs.

AND THEN HE GETS FUCKING PSYCHIC SPACE POWERS. Not that he needed them, he bodied a couple Space Psychics without any of those powers before awakening to them. But heaven's most violent child was not done evolving, whether he liked it or not.

Char bodied him in a souped up Zaku II at the start, a machine objectively inferior to the Gundam. Amuro more or less one-sidedly beats the shit out of Char when he's in a custom Commander-type Gelgoog that you could consider to be equal spec-wise to the Gundam. Amuro is the embodiment of Finding Out. He is Consequences. You tell him he better make it hurt, better make it count, better kill you in one shot, buddy, he needs half a fucking shot. The complete transformation. One could consider the central 75% of the show as long drawn out training montage turning a kid into the Geese Howard of giant robots.

I'm a sucker for back shots of Goji and for shots of massive amounts of water falling off kaiju, so this shot made me happy.
