New Gundam Thread

[Otohiko]

Well, it's just that weapons development mostly seems to be a constant cycle of counter-weapons, and I can't really see a practical role for a MS to be a counter to something that currently exists.

Where I think there potential for something like combat mobile suits is actual 'Mobile Suits' - literally moving suits of armor which a person would put on, for instance, but which would be powered to avoid restricting movement. Since a lot of warfare these days is urban and utterly low-tech, something like that could be the safe high-tech addition that urban warfare needs. And for all we know, it could escalate from there.

But I actually think armor suits like that would be very different from Gundams and probably wouldn't develop in size... But, you never know. If there's anywhere where a heavy mobile platform that's much more mobile than a tank might develop, that's offensive urban warfare. That's the unsolved part of the modern warfare puzzle, I think. For everything else, the pieces are already in place.

That almost gave it away. If it's very short, it must be Zeong.

Other Information/Bio:
When Zero thought mobile suit, he thought mobile suit, so this is what he made of it. Basically a tiny version of Angel Wing Gundam Zero, even though it lacks most of the mechanized parts that it's predecessor has, it still contains enough parts to move around naturaly as if the armor wasn't on. Otherwise, it's almost identical to AWGZ, with the exception of downgraded weapons. From this unit would spawn the idea of using them in modern warfare against terrorists due to their relitively inexpensive cost and high effectiveness.

I've got more originals and once the site for them is up and running. You can see more.

A short run yes, but still, he got more time there than in this MS

[Zero]

Oh, yeah, Gundam MK II. That was good. Now here's a funny one.

Amuro Rei and Excel Excel from Excel Saga. Put them together and explain the relationship.

You'll be spending days at this one.

[Heero_Yuy84]

The seiyuus Torhu Furuya (Amuro) and Kotono Mitsuishi (Excel) also play the main couple (Usagi and Mamoru) in Sailor Moon

and while we're on the topic of seiyuus

For all of it's send-up of super robots, two of the seiyuus later went on to play alongside each other in a show which would actually help revive the super robot genre in Japan...

Which two were they and what series was it?

I think you missed the joke

Didn’t think that was possible, oh well, here is one more stab at it, after a disastrous time being a car salesman, or little Asimo gets and upgrade and tries his hand at some culinary arts.



heero and zero, your knowledge is boundless.

(...yeah, so it's a bit esoteric, watch me not care)

watches......

This thread has become a scary one indeed but at least it's popular.
Don't worry Duke, most of us got your "jokes".
You really need to stop putting Massimo's (is that the name?) face on Gundam.
It's just wrong.
Still don't have any answers to trivia.
