The Kou/Nina/Gato romantic dynamic might be my favorite. And i also like Kou+Nina as a couple and Gato+Nina as couple.

Yes, this is the most unpopular Gundam opinion ever.

Random mecha-related thought of the day:

Gundam 0083 is a show with characters and story that are on the whole rather... middling at best, but for whatever reason make great side-characters and subplots in a Super Robot Wars game.

Like I was just playing a bit of SRW Alpha 3 and I just find it fun that the Albion crew somehow wind up in ALL FOUR of the Alpha games. I mean the entire story of the OVA winds up being essentially a minor subplot in Alpha 1, but then they just... keep showing up in all of the following games. They even got to go to go on the big trip to the future in Alpha Gaiden. And by the time Alpha 3 rolls around Kou, Keith, Burning and the rest are just sort of hanging around as the backup squad to the main UC players of Amuro, Kamille, Judau and all their friends. Yet for some reason it’s always neat to see them somehow rounding out the group. Like sure, Kou Uraki isn’t really much more than a Federation grunt with an actual face and personality, but he’s also somehow piloting a Gundam with a weapons pack the size of a battleship with about twice as much firepower, so it’s actually kinda fun we still have him around.

And it’s not just the protagonists either. Even the bad guys seem to keep popping up after Alpha 1 too. Like how somewhere between Alpha 1 and Alpha 2, Anavel Gato somehow got himself a top position in Neo Zeon and part of Char’s inner circle and shows up in the Neue Ziel as a midboss during the Axis drop.

Then of course we’ve got the wacky adventures of the Gundam GP02 and how it just seems to show up everywhere. Including 10,000 years in the FUTURE! Spending four games getting tossed between just about every faction that uses mobile suits like a nuclear hot potato.

Whereas bigger-name titles like Victory Gundam or more powerful machines like the Masou Kishin got phased out of the Alpha series, somehow THIS cast of characters managed to stick around through all four games.

And I dunno, I guess that makes them all rather endearing somehow XD

Figure collecting: 2023 display breakdown - mecha and futuristic stuff

(Original post here - full list of breakdowns can be found under tag #2023 displays)

Third breakdown - left upright cabinet, third shelf.

From left to right, roughly: Max Sterling (Robotech), Tekkaman Blade, Anavel Gato and RX-78GP02A Gundam "Physalis" (Gundam 0083), Captain Harlock and Emeraldas, KOS-MOS (Xenosaga), Vash, Nicholas Wolfwood and Legato (Trigun).

Obviously this is my most atypical shelf as I specialize in collecting male figures, not gunpla / mecha, however I have a certain fondness for sci-fi anime having been raised on things like Gatchaman from the time I was a tyke. This shelf obviously has room for growth, but I have multiple Gundams en route as well as another Tekkaman Blade kit to assemble, so it’ll fill in more noticeably this year.

I have a theory why: the conflict between Cima and Delaz & Gato is best understood with Nietzsche's Apollonian vs Dionysian.

I mean, compare the interior design of their ships' bridges:

Delaz: speeches about righteousness, revenge, ideals, etc, straight lines, lack of colors and structure in the design of the bridge, the crew members wear proper uniform;

Cima: manipulative and scheming, her motivation isn't not as straightforward as Delazes, witchy vibes, chaos, camp and a lot of color in the bridge's design, the crew members wear uniform in a revealing way;

That said, due to this portrayal of those subfactions, Cima is the Dionysian and Delaz is the Apollonian (perhaps, looking deeper into their motivation, it's the other way around, but I haven't read 0083 rebellion manga yet - anyways, I'm talking about the superficial appeal, so it doesn't matter). And Apollonian traits traditionally tend to be associated with something good, morally right. So that's why some people see Gato as honorable IMO.

I hate the way people seem to think Gato is somehow “honorable”

because nuking a fleet during peacetime out of a twisted sense of reenge for a facist dictatorship is honorable

because dropping a colony on a civilian population is so fucking honorable

seriously, fuck Gato
