[Anime] Mobile Suit Gundam: Universal Century Saga (0079-Victory) Mega-Thread

Take a shot every time a Shrike Team member anyone dies. Mourn the fools who did this while marathoning the series.
 
"And then a Shrike Team member dies" is pretty much a running theme for V Gundam.

I like it like that. That is the reality of war.

More questions,

What exactly did Maria do?. She pulled some Benny Hin **** and shined some light and the sick members of the colony were healed.

So Uso is finally back with his Mom who is a MS designer and created the V2 which is why she left Uso to begin with. What I don't get is how randomly Uso knew about his Mom, where she was, and that she made the V2 Gundam. It just came out of nowhere, was this some sort of Newtype thing or will it be explained?. Uso's mom also told him a spirit visited her while she was pregnant with him ala Jesus Christ, does this mean he is the chosen one?. I think it would be cool if it was revealed to be Amuro's newtype spirit that was the one to visit her.

V Gundam's production staff planned to use the idea that Üso is actually Char's great-grandson but Tomino decided against it.

Man, that would have fucking ROCKED hard. But there still needs to be some sort of explanation regarding Uso and his mother.

btw, the Dodgore mobile armor is fucking awesome. I love how it looks like a chinese dragon and can break apart and reassemble itself.
 
The Uso finds his mom thing is pretty much him having a Newtype Moment, yeah. No other explanation is added.

I. Feel bad that Tomino didn't like v

It represents a period in Tomino's life where he was having a full-on nervous breakdown over being forced by Bandai to continue Gundam when he wanted to do other things.

I wanna say it was also the same year the infamous "HERE IS YOUR GUNDAM!" incident occurred at a convention but that story is one of those things that its validity is hard to 100% nail down.

Given all of that, plus his own efforts to sabotage the show at points with some really weird things, it's not hard to understand why it's a work he would look back on with disdain.

(The irony being that when he WAS allowed to do something other than Gundam again he made Garzey's Wing... and then Brain Power'd.)
 
A combination of being contractually obligated and also the fact that he became "that Gundam guy" to the degree that nobody would fund anything else he wanted to work on unless the Gundam name was attached to it.

It's not unlike what happened to Adam West with Batman, Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher with Star Wars, and most of the cast of the original Star Trek.
 
Tomino must have been on crack because Victory is a solid fucking series.

If there are no other answers to Uso by the end of the series then I am going to chalk it up to him being Char's Great Grandson.

Uso's Mom just died by being CRUSHED to death..... I swear to God... that **** is grim. Uso was holding her normal suit helmet as a blood was dripping from it.
