It's not just about motherhood. Themes like identity, environmentalism, cult indoctrination, death and rebirth cycle are also quite prominent. It's a multi-generational story about relationship between children and their parents. Hime is the mc, even more so than Yuu. In a show where various characters are grappling with their strained parent-child relationship, she stands out for being an orphan who has lived with many parents. She is not a Mary Sue, just a more honest girl, not jaded by shitty parenting. Anoa's redemption at the end is like one of the best things ever from Tomino anime. Jonathan is so fucking overhyped by supposed fans, it's not even funny. He is great and fun to watch, but he is barely in the front and center outside of some episodes. Calling Quincy a female Jonathan is completely missing her character. Higgins, Kanan, Kant etc are all really good side characters that either embody the themes of the show or just fun to watch. It sounds like you are just watching the show through 'hehe mommy issues amirite' meme lens than actually absorbing and engaging with it honestly."} +{"text":"Themes like identity, environmentalism, cult indoctrination, death and rebirth cycle are also quite prominent. Dunno about prominent but they're all handled horribly, having a couple of episodes about Orphan emitting biowaves that make flowers grow and Brains being happy around flowers doesn't really give much food for thought, if any, cult indoctrination is more relevant when it's other rants about the USA rather than Orphan and the Grand Chers emitting literal mind control brainwaves that brainwash you into being tools and proxies for Orphan, again, not much food for thought there even with Iiko going through a detox session on the Novis Noa and ultimately failing because she's too mentally scarred by then. You can't make any solid argument about cult indoctrination in a show with literal magic brainwashing only Yuu sort of escapes from because he's the main character and also a legit schizo, Victory makes for a more compelling watch if you want that, so does Turn A or even Xabungle. In a show where various characters are grappling with their strained parent-child relationship, she stands out for being an orphan who has lived with many parents. And what exactly does Hime DO with that? Unlike Yuu Hime never struggles with anything, she doesn't grow through the show either, she doesn't have any real relationship or discourse with other characters including Yuu himself who tiptoes between incredibly awkward random kisses and constant antisocial bitch fits that make Kamille look like a normal person. Hime merely exists as a model for Tomino to use in contrast to horrible bitches like Midori, nevermind how Orphan magically reunites her with her actual mother through magic memory mumbo jumbo and makes her cry like a baby about it which makes the \"many moms and dads\" point rather null because ultimately Hime WAS implicitly just as weak as everyone else to the whole parent complex deal but conveniently avoids dealing with that until the show's over."} +{"text":"but he is barely in the front and center outside of some episodes. Because he's the main villain. Even so Jonathan is the one character in the entire show who goes through actual growth, has his views challenged constantly, both directly and indirectly and he ultimately comes to terms with his own mistakes, Jonathan is always coherent to his character unlike Yuu who is incredibly poorly written and acts as a raw mouthpiece for Tomino more than anything. Iiko goes through very similar hardships, she struggles to deal with her own feelings, her shitty parents and Orphan's brainwashing, she goes through a detox cycle that ultimately fails and then a deep memory dive into her grandma's memories as to better understand not just her own situation but her grandmother's and her mother's, and even so much like Jonathan's that only further amplifies her initial stance on things rather than changing it, up to the point she fuses with Orphan to become her antibody until Hime (and Yuu) talk Orphan out of it all. Anoa's redemption at the end is like one of the best things ever from Tomino anime. I have no idea how you can ever say this when Jonathan himself bursts out laughing at the bitter irony and absurdity of it all, Anoa was a mentally broken husk who turned herself into a Char clone and started a genocidal plan because she thought that giving control of Orphan to Jonathan would make him happy and make up for the shitty childhood he had, Anoa up to the very end was still a shitty mother incapable of actually relating to her son and still engaging in her distorted, one way relationship with him to such lengths Jonathan himself could only laugh at how absurd the whole thing was and how he could only vaguely relate to his own mother when she was desperately trying to be somebody else, the only good thing about it is that Jonathan ultimately gets some peace of mind by finally getting a glimpse of (psychopathic) motherly love from that, but it's still rather awkward."} +{"text":"How many shows was Sunrise making in 1998? Apparently this was being broadcast at the same time as Bebop and Outlaw Star."} +{"text":"Higgins, Kanan, Kant etc are all really good side characters that either embody the themes of the show or just fun to watch. No. Higgins is less of a character than Sheila, he's less of a character than fucking Rass and neither are particularly interesting or relevant through the show, her honest and simple love story is quite nice in a show full of psychotic characters but that doesn't make interesting. Kant is a fetish character and an exposition machine that doesn't really mean much in the bigger picture, he's as interesting and compelling as a character for the general narrative as Nakki is, which means not much. Kanan is again, somebody who starts out great, has some good moments in the early episodes but then stops existing the moment the twin Brains come out and she starts her relationship with Rass, after that she's just a background figure and her entire relationship with Yuu stops existing until a very brief moment during Iiko's detox arc being the only exception, Tomino could have done so much more with her but alas. It sounds like you are just watching the show through 'hehe mommy issues amirite' meme lens Because there's nothing else of substance to the show, I like BP because I like Tomino and his rants but it's easily his worst show outside of Garzey's Wings, it's a rushed, incoherent mess that doesn't know what it wants to do and ultimately goes nowhere, it doesn't even have many good moments unlike his other shows, it's unfocused, horribly animated when it is animated in the first place and more interesting as a sort of diary on Tomino's mind more than anything else. The music is exceptional and it boasts both Nagano and Inomata as designers (even though the show itself does them exactly zero justice), it's super fun if you're into Tomino's work, but it's objectively incredibly flawed and poorly written outside of some very specific parts that do not really save the show as a whole."} +{"text":"Hard scifi spacecraft from the near or distant future.no such thing as magic gravity plating,faster than light engines or teleporters."} +{"text":"I think anon question is more about the \"camouflage\", WWII style. OP pic is about hiding point-defenses to make harder to know what it is equipped with, if you relied on a purely visual analysis. But it's IMO silly because it would not be difficult to get a 3D reconstruction in any resolution if you cared to do so. If you can build nuclear warship, you can cheaply spam networked sensors able to read fine print from the other side of the solar system. Plus, said spaceship would spend long enough in service and in travel to be fully analyzed, if a spy didn't send you its full specs before it was even built. Ironically, whoever made this pic tried too hard to match the NASApunk visual code for realism. If you really want to hide your equipment: put a cover on it. Even fabric will do and be worth the extra kilo. Unlike naval ship it won't have to resist harsh weather and would even help with thermal management (consider the JWST sunshield), cooling the fabric would be easier and protect the structure from thermal fatigue and stuff. So we could get cool looking edgy spaceship without stealth being an option. Once you realize the futility of stealth in space, you can make the interior of your ship the mystery .

I keep saying homebrew but it's hard to capture how amateurish the game feels. Like it has a \"heat\" resource, but whereas in Battletech heat is a mechanic interwoven with the whole mech system, here it's just a generic resource layered on top. The game has an \"overwatch\" system for quickshot reactions, but unlike Infinity's reaction system which is organically interwoven with the whole battle system and action economy, here's a generic and tedious attack of opportunity layered on top. etc. etc. I would unironically rather just play a generic system with mech fluff because that's basically what you're getting with Lancer, but with more hassle."} +{"text":"Mekton Zeta and the Japanese Gundam expansion for it."} +{"text":"Thoughts on Battle Century G?"} +{"text":"This sure came and went.

Do I have that right?"} +{"text":"As Hi-Streamer was serialized in Animage magazine and later presented as Char's Counterattack, I understand some readers may feel confused. I, too, found myself in a predicament, unable to make the final decision on this matter. I'd like you to understand that this situation arose from a misalignment of good intentions among all parties involved. Initially, I had a personal desire to craft Hi-Streamer as a long-running story, separate from the business constraints of television. The Animage editorial team graciously agreed to this vision. We had envisioned a narrative that would incorporate elements of the Char's Counterattack movie while continuing as Hi-Streamer, extending beyond the film's scope. However, when this work was interpreted solely as material for the film, the possibility of a continuing story vanished, leaving my original intentions hanging in the air. To address this, we reintroduced the Hi-Streamer title alongside Char's Counterattack from the second volume. Yet, unless there's an outpouring of support from readers, I fear Hi-Streamer may not see a true revival. - Tomino, in the Afterword of Hi-Streamer In an interview, Tomino mentioned that Hathaway's Flash was also going to be included into its story. Tomino's desire to craft a long running narrative and escape the trappings of Gundam was unsuccessful, he later tried that again with Gaia Gear. while BC is the original concept that Tomino went back to and reworked after CCA. Since Animage had published HS novel, Kadokawa missed out on opportunity to have a direct tie-in to the film. So the editor requested Tomino to pen something and he submitted BC quite quickly. BC is a motif novel, it is meant to supplement the film as a sort of mixed media.

It sells because, as I said, people were done with UC as an \"ongoing story\" and only used it for side stories taking place around the original that don't change anything. It took almost twenty years before people were ready for a forward moving UC again with Unicorn essentially being a reboot for \"what comes next after CCA\". It was definitely the right call. G-Gundam in addition to being awesome was the exact kind of shake up the franchise needed at that point. It being so radically different also helped things later AU's that were more in line with UC like AC and CE much easier to swallow for the audience, it's harder to go \"not muh gundam\" when G set the bar for how different you could make things so high.
