Y'know giant robots are kinda funny...
When I think about trans characters in anime from the 90s and earlier, I'm likeOhhhhh okay!! That makes sense actually, now the titles all look less like a huge mess, although I find it funny that "Turn A Gundam" is official. I guess given how many different Gundams there are, that's admirably well sorted. That was a lot about names :)
I see, I'm not interested in saving time at the cost of quality, lol. I do hate when abridged versions cut important things like that. I'll keep the third OVA in my back pocket too! I don't really have other anime that I intend to watch (anime delenda est) so 0079/IBO/TurnA will mostly be competing against, uh Unjust Depths till I catch up :3
Marxist gundam analysis sounds pretty awesome honestly, but rip to starting with the best stuff and only leaving boring junk so you have to take a Star Trek break. Also your mentioning your ex makes me kinda wish I could have dragged whatever s/o at the time through whatever I was reading or watching, make it a cooperative project...
Okay cool, I did not know that was a thing =) I'm kinda split on whether watching 0080 or 0079 first would be better, I guess it'll depend on what kind of mood I'm in. 0080 first for least resistance, 0079 first for coherency & production order. Good crash course, ty comrade
::: spoiler giant robo is a different anime actually the #1 classic anime trans woman i remember is the girl from you're under arrest, who is sadly a cop. yeah, there are those but i uh. decided not to count them on account of. well you get it. i am totally guilty of the same love of , i love ienaga from golden kamuy (who eats women to take on their attributes, like a womans tongue to get her voice, etc. she's like a legit fleshed out character and there are way more serial killers than just her so i think it's actually about as sensitive as a character like that can be)
yeah, same. but as abridged versions go the 0079 compilations are about as good as it gets, in that they are at least internally coherent
yeah lmao. i could have gone on longer, for example! most gundam anime are named after the main gundam. turn a has the turn a gundam, wing has the wing gundam, 00 gundam has the 00 gundam. exceptions: char's counterattack, hathaway's flash, all the ovas, reconquista in g, iron blooded orphans, and g-witch. if you know the release order of gundam (which you probably don't) you'll recognize most of those are from the last decade. seemingly they decided gundam age was the last time they'd ever do that
it's a pretty good podcast. i've still got some good ones ahead of me, but not for a while if i'm watching in production order
yeah, of course!
I forgor lol
Ew cop, okay I'm fine with murder but being a cop is where I draw the fucking lineI'm always kinda resistant to using filler guides most days, I suppose skipping stuff that's there just feels weird...
Oh yeah, I kind of wondered if there was a pattern to the names, neat! Also I have enjoyed ur overstuffed infodumps and accrued much knowledge from them, so thank you
it actually has the same director as g gundam!
i definitely already posted this chart and i think you saw it, but it's one of my favorite things so i'll post it again. suffice it to say i ABSOLUTELY relate to your love of this type of womanyeah, there's only one episode of 0079 that i think is acceptable to skip, and its one they took out of most releases of the show. if it's in whatever release you use then you might as well watch it and if it isn't there's no need to actively seek it out. it's a totally fine episode that happens to look janky as hell (the poor animation quality is why it was removed, they're embarrassed of it) and not really add anything thematically or plotwise, so no need to worry either way
i couldn't really help myself lmao, so i'm glad you appreciated them
TIL!
Pfffffffffff it gets better every time I look at itOoh that's so curious, I don't know if I've ever seen an episode removed for poor animation quality! Nowadays they'd just re-animate whatever portion for home media after the initial broascast/stream, very neat!!
yeah imagawa does a lot of mecha anime
i love the chart so muchyeah, all the mobile suits are SUPER off model, i think the animation director had just been hospitalized so they really aren't proud of it and there's no real need to watch it, so it just generally doesn't show up. i think it's like a bonus on the bluray release or something
