Mechs as a whole would be a compliment, especially if they can fly to both be front line and support assets to ground armored units and ariel units, so no I agree mechs would work great with tanks and planes.

15:23 Small correction; Sydney is not the Australian capital city. Canberra is the Australian capital city. Sydney is the state capital city of New South Wales.

I'm 100% sure that if there are space colonies that existed IRL, the prejudice would be the other way around. The people living in space would be the one to look down to people stuck on earth 🤣

I always felt sorry for Dozle. All the man wanted was to protect his family and his siblings took advantage of his love to manipulate him into thinking horrific acts were needed to win the war. The poor dude has a panic attack after Operation British because he recognizes the human cost and how evil his siblings really are.

Oh God, iv been on warhammer and stellaris lore for so long I never even considered including gundam lore into my sleep listening 😊

Always loved the one year war during the UC. Probably the most interesting series of events in all of Gundam, and we’ve seen less than half the events on-screen.

The Transition sound from the OG Gundam series is very nostalgic! Nice Video BTW!

i love universal century more than any other timeline. fantastic job. instant sub

While giant robots are great, it is the lore and the grace with which the conflicts are generally rendered that inspires people to keep coming back to the Mobile Suit Gundam franchise again and again...well, that is, until The Witch from Mercury. For fans of that series, Shipping is sufficient. Everything else is a detriment.

The only decent thing we got from that show was the prologue... I wasn't hyped but at least that made thr series look promising, but, well you all know how it went

The reason why mobile suits were used by Zeon is because they were, at first, a waste. They were originally intended to be mere construction units like the RB-79 Ball before being used for military applications. When Zeon revealed their combat mobile suits, the federation saw it as a joke and made fun of it like "it can babysit without squishing a baby" "it can solve a Rubics cube even with its giant fingers" and other sarcastic insults you can think of. And it was intentional, Zeon needed to be seen by the Federation and perceived as an incompetent wannabe military force full of idiots to camouflage their strengthening military. My only gripe is the fact that they use legs. IN SPACE. The zaku would have been just as good with its legs replaced by rocket boosters and loads of RCS thrusters. I mean look at the S Gundam Booster Unit Type and the Deep Striker from Gundam Sentinel. They are mobile suits with rocket boosters for legs. And they were created 8 years after the one year war

I always interpreted the legs being for in-colony work. Like these things are basically one man gunboats or even corvettes with their size and firepower, and with legs they can be deployed inside of colonies to terrorize the population into submission

@colinbielat8558

Ай бұрын

The legs are for AMBAC, active mass balance auto control, AMBAC allows for the mobile suit to shift its mass in space allowing for zero thrust maneuverability which not only allows for the mobile suit to use less fuel it also allows for more erratic maneuvers.

I’m a huge gundam fan and have been since a boy and I still have trouble connecting the dots so thank you for this video! I’ve seen a lot of gundam. I didn’t know that Cima was responsible for the gas attacks and also lied to about it, no wonder she was so crazy lol Didn’t know shiro witnessed this stuff either, Explains a lot of holes so thank you!

Thanks for sharing, now I can't wait to watch all the series...

I’m going to listen to this so many times at work. Thank you dude!

Best Gundam lore video I’ve seen .

Just discovering your videos and I love what you're doing here. As a long time. Gundam fan this is pretty amazing to see

Well made and enjoyable video, good job!

I had only ever watched gundam wing and such. I just started watching the original gundam. So this is super interesting and explains the back story for me

This is amazing. Thank you for the video.

This was an awesome breakdown! Even as a long time Gundam fan i learned some stuff about the pre-OYW era

Eventhough I am a really big fan of Gundam The Origin but fail to keep up with the lore haha. Thank you for compiling the story! Liked!

I’m itching for part 2 my dude!!!! When’s it landing?????

Great vid!

Chick that can pilot a mobile suit is always a plus.

27:00 “Just 60mm guns” the 30mm gay on the avenger creates enough force to slow the warthog at full power. The Russians developed a (slightly) larger gun and put in in a jet, firing the gun cause massive damage to the aircraft. A 60mm gun on most ships ina med/high calibre weapon firing single shots from a loading system, something being 60mm and belt fed is utterly terrifying. Each round (without the propellant) would be comparable to the size of a thermos flats or large bottle of pop. When they developed they series i guess mart rounds were not a thing, but imagine a 60mm Vulcan that could to 70 rounds a second and each round could do it’s own thing!

Great video. Also at 24:49 where did you get the footage of the zaku in front of the White House ?

Zeon was formed in 0058, not 53, and the national guard was formed immediately after its formation (albeit, likely still as a Earth Federation precaution), not in response to the Bardo Policy which was in 0059 (at least, according to some timelines).

Such a great watch. Thanks for the detailed summary!

I thought Origin was considered Canon.

Once ZEON lost the OYW, ZEON became a bunch of splinter groups. ZEON could have had independence if Char didn’t kill the Zabi family but I don’t blame Char because I would have done the exact same thing.

19:51 that got aggressive fast. I was going to start with modern close range combat relative to the modern a10

So… why didn’t they just attack the earth? If their problem was with the earth, then why attack the space colonies?

@DoomedRedbull

3 ай бұрын

Well, outside of wanting to use those colonies to drop onto Earth, their problem was with the Federation, not the Earth itself. There's a high probability that the ones they picked were specifically allies with the Federation. This can be assumed since Ensign Shiro Amada was fighting for one of these three colonies.

There is a Novelization written by the original director himself but it's quite different from the established canon by the original anime and similar side stories.

What about the backstory of MS Gundam The Origin, the background of the War is illustrated there pretty well.

one of the Greatests anime ever written

28:47 what Game is that? That isn’t an episode.

I wonder what role the assassinated Zabi would have played had he not got killed by Kycillia

I thought he was called the crimson lighting?

Gotta love that in real life a 18 meter mech would be such an easy target that it would emidiatly put the favor back into the federations side😂

Talk about War Crimes and Genocide!

i have not watched all the series that compose the one year war yet, could someone please tell me where all this lore comes from?

The only reason why mechs work in gundam is because it’s a sci-fi universe with sci-fi technology. And also, you could just fit all that technology into tanks and fighter jets and they would immediately be better than mechs lol. The only way mechs can for-sure be practical is in a non-combat or logistical support roles.

True would be interesting. Another alternative universe.

Mobile suits WOULD be a waste in real life. Because in real life, ships would shoot at each other from so far out of visual range its not even funny. Minovsky particles aren't real, and without them the whole concept falls apart, at least in space combat. Now, if you could make a mech that performs that well in terrestrial environments it'd definitely be better than tanks, but it's very likely that a more practical design would be less humanoid in shape.

Brother in real life a mobile suits wouldn't work, Gravity (physics) and of course the fuel consumption. Not to mention the enormous amount of metal needed. You're taking the anime too literal for reality.
