Moon Gundam: A Subtle (Yet Powerful) Reweaving of Universal Century | Moon Gundam Exploration

- MOON GUNDAM, written by Harutoshi Fukui, is taking all of Tomino's works and by threading in the gap years of Universal Century it's managing to weave a cohesive story that will culminate in the celebration of UC 100. How you're asking? Well, by connecting the dots with the wisdom of hindsight.
So my friends, I'm Absa, and in this video I'm going to explore the first volume of Moon Gundam and some of the major events of future volumes. I'll also talk about how the story introduces new mobile suits, new factions and even more newtypes; even though we know that it doesn't matter what happens, it needs to leave things almost, if not exactly untouched for Char's Counterattack to happen.

Let's face it, Moon Gundam is basically "Filling the Plot Hole: the Series."
Isn't that the point of side stories ?
thats what side stories mostly do.
Naw. I think that honor still belongs to Gundam Narrative
Is this comment bandai paid? Cause the entire manga til now isn't cohesive at all with others work. See msvr. That's what we called kino and cohesive. Moon gundam is just how to replace old plot holes with a bigger one. Don't mistake me, it's fun and all but that is only from a perspective that we dismiss all politic in story.
@@mynameistoohardtospell7195 Like that matters, plenty of people seem to agree.
I think the main thing that separates Moon and Thunderbolt (my favourite manga EVER) is that Ohtagaki clearly isn't allowed or doesn't want to use any characters from the mainline Gundam series, which is responsible for a lot of Thunderbolt's disconnection from UC canon. Fukui, meanwhile, embraces and develops characters like Amuro in the story, which results in the world feeling much more whole.
It makes sense though, and personally I feel it works out better.
Space is a big place. Loads of things are happening off screen. Some of which is hinted at and directly intertwines with "the main story we get dragged along with. Some thing happen in their own corner and may not necessarily have a rippling affect over thing overall.
I think it's wonderful.
@@MaddJakdcompletely agree with this. I love little things that link back to the "main story" as the original commenter said but a real fleshed out world has multiple things going on that have nothing to do with each other and it just makes the setting so much more interesting
i like how Thunderbolt became its own thing. The cult stuff is a really clever twist on the cliche of the protagionist finding a newtype who tempts him to develop his own powers and go on an adventure, with that newtype instead being a genocidal cult leader preying upon wounded and betrayed soldiers. That kind of story could never be done in the established canon
Moon Gundam sounds like a very well thought out "filler" between ZZ and CCA, and I cannot wait to see how it turns out as OVA.
Never heard of Moon Gundam before now, but now I need more.
After going back and watching everything in chronological order from 0079 to CCA I think moon Gundam has the opportunity to not just be that bridge from zz to cca but actually fill out cca given that the movies runtime. I always wished there was more to cca and moon has the ability to be that more
Let's go, I adore moon gundam and can't wait for more to come out. Its been a great way to make moon moon feel a lot more fleshed out than in ZZ
Not that I don't care for the story. But getting to know that Moon Gundam is basically a Gurren Lagann is really funny. Psycho Gundam MKIV G-Doors head attaches itself onto the body of the Varguil ala Gurren Lagann style.
#MoreMoonGundam, my favorite new mobile suit from this story is the Jeda which is a prototype for the Jegan.
WTF!!!!!!!!!
How have i never heard of moon gundam before🤬
THIS ART LOOKS GREAT
AAAAAAAND HEY MY DUDE GREAT JOB ON BRINING THIS TO NEW PEOPLES ATTENTION
ALSO GREAT PRESENTATION subbing👍
#moremoongundam most sources only stop at chapter 19. You are our only hope.
I personally love unicorn. It is my absolute favorite gundam story
Thanks for posting Absa! As always I love hearing your thoughts!
I'm not sure why, but it's become one of my absolute favorite designs. I have the HGUC kit but I sure hope we get a MG down the road.
I kind of wish we got a movie of this, like Narrative. #moremoongundam
Glad to be first in one of your videos. Love the Moon gundam but havent seen its story.
#moremoongundam
More yes. Love learning the lore.
I freaking love Moon Gundam #moremoongundam
I need more moon Gundam content right NOW
Where’s my master grade at
#moremoongundam
good lord man, it does not take a 10 minute preamble to get into talking about Moon Gundam, this is a video essay not an informative essay where you need to hook the reader, the title does that already
The psycho gundam mk4 is definitely the most in need of a kit.
Hey Absha I know you're a Gundam fans, but if I can request...can you do a breakdown video, about a manga called Gundam F90 Fastest Formula ?
Its interesting how something sacred and loved by one creator can the second they die become what anyone else wants and not be what the creator intended.
Mobile Suit Gundam Warpulgis also a story between ZZ and CCA
#MoreMoonGundam you're my only source for this story bro, you're my only hope!
Might I recommend manggadex
Moon gundam is pretty much just an excuse for the author to write more about his favorite Waifu Mineva
The detractors complaining about "too much space magic" aren't truly into Gundam.
If they were, they would have seen the clear plot threads from the very beginning leading to what a Newtype really is.
It was always meant to be way more than just "mild psychic-esq" sprinklings over the "hard core, grounded 'real' war" stuff
Combined with high technology, the type of which literally can't be made on Earth (something we are running into in the real world now) things that appear like magic are a guarantee.
You should read Tomino’s interviews on Turn A Gundam or watch the movie Hathaway’s Flash. Tomino purposefully shrunk the narrative importance of New Types in everything he did after CCA.
Now I just hope the manga gets fully translated at some point
So Moon Gundam is like how Missing Links connects UC-MSV stories?
#moremoongundam I want to know far more about the series
i didnt know about it. ill watch soon. i love the uc!
Unfortunately, it’s not an anime you can watch 😭
@@topik5900 I'm fine with reading. Just gotta catch up on a few other manga first.
Can we get a video on “how to transition from watching Gundam to reading Gundam?” I feel like there’s so much to more explore about the Gundam universe in the manga/novels but I don’t know where to start.
need this
Necesitamos #moremoongundam
Fantastic video! #moremoongundam
I only know of Moon Gundam because I received the MS in Mobile Suit Gundam Battle Operation 2.
Loved it! #moremoongundam
Stardust Memory and G-Saviour please
GODBLESS.
How about Thunderbolt or Walpurgis?:)
The hand movements lol
More moon gundam please 🎉🎉🎉🎉
meanwhile thunderbolt is going off the rails
Isn't thunderbolt an alternate UC?
@@jamalisujang2712 that's why, while moon tries to fit in, thunderbolt says rule of coooooool!
#moremoongundam
One day I hope anime.
For me, Beltorchika's Children should have been the focus and not Char's Counterattack. It seemed like A New Narrative was going to take that direction or not take the depressing route. I don't think having a story squeeze inbetween yet go unmentioned at the same time in order to fit things together is masterful, it is what it is. Filling holes in where it at least won't touch what is established, which could just beg why such events were never mentioned. If a story just doesn't fit right because things weren't thought of, you just have to accept that, but maybe it works. Just...you run the chance of creating another plot hole while trying to fix a past issue that's been established but can't be changed. It seems fruitless if not pointless with the purpose only being perceived cohesion.
noone ever talks about gundam manga
I thought you need to pick up pace narrating this video until I don't 😵💫
mate the B in subtle is silent
off topic question, what is the blue kit beside the lupus?
If it's that plane looking thing it's from macross
#MoreMoonGundam please
Please do a video essay on Titanfall 2 and armored core 6 on mecha genre in video games😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭🤤👹🫶⛩️🗾🪷🏯👘💮🍣🦖🤬
Tendras canala en español porque en el otro donde es grupal tiene 1 año que suben nada a excepción de los envivos
#more moon gundam
Man i didn't know why these stories are addicted with Mineva.
Maybe cuz she’s the heiress of the Zabi Dynasty that made Zeon and started the One Year War. It’s easy to see why she’s a recurring character in the Universal Century.
@@kapayasiame3632
Problem is that many people forgot that Zeon isn't even about the Dabi's, the freaking name of Zeon come from Zeon Zum Daikun.
And who care about a girl in which her family are literally space nazis.
@@renzocater3089 that’s true that people don’t care about her or much of unicorn. It’s not she’s a prominent character like Bright or Hathaway.
#MoreMoonGundam
I know itll never happen. But moon needs a mg kit
Magic Gundam girls
Man...
I hope they just started another timeline for many of these stories...
Unicorn doesn't exactly affect anything, NT is only referenced again in G Reco with fake Phenex.
It fills the development hole that existed between the gm3 and the Jegan, that alone makes it worthwhile.
The way you moved all the saint Seiya collection to the side 🤣🤣🤣i would never move aside the gundams in favor to other series good try
hoh it just 4 years from Judau adventure,
remembering how Minerva was crybaby then 4 years later became competent Relena Peacecraft kinda forced.
moon gundam doesnt feel like it belongs to UC...
I disagree.
