Unreleased footage from this video include Shane and Adam dragging me out of the vocal booth:
"BUT WAIT I HAVEN'T EVEN EXPLAINED WHAT A NEWTYPE IS YET!"
FACT.
and you didn't even get to bring up anything on minovsky particles.
Star Track? ..... Revoked. Nerd. Card.
You guys nailed it in the end
At least you were able to point out not to watch SEED Destiny.
Bright: We need you, heres your badge
Pilot: *bewilderedly extends hand*
Bright: "Too slow" *withdraws hand*
*Failure Theme Plays*
This is referred to by fans as a "newtype-only" game. As the only way to beat it is by literally having psychic powers.
Extremely accurate.
You have to grab the badge quickly, before the commander realizes how dumb it is that he's about to accept some random dude into the federation force.
yep.
He just realize how fucking stupid this is.
Not just dumb, but if the MC is supposed to be Amuro then he also realized he's committing a war crime by enlisting a child soldier.
@@DarkButz Its the future, maybe the Geneva Conventions doesn't even exist anymore :b
@@marceloaranibar8802 Eh, probably. After Operation British morality most likely was thrown out the window faster than an idea of a Crossbone Gundam anime.
Imagine being able to tank a nuclear explosion with a shield but crumbling to dust for not being able to grab a medal fast enough.
I imagine the crew just shot the pilot on the spot for not accepting the rank badge
I like to imagine that there's a version of Thanos in the Gundam universe, that just snapped his fingers and blipped him out of existence.
@@boykingkilla Ah one of those 4 million times the Avengers lost.
@@GooseAtron5000 but how does the gundam explode
Actually I paused and here's the text displayed if you fail to grab the medal in time (still sounds stupid by the way).
"Without the strength of Mobile Suit Gundam, the Federation will eventually lose the war for Earth."
So I'd imagine that either the captain says something along the lines of "That's a shame, we really could have used the help of someone as capable as you." (insert any Gundam defeated scene from this game here) or "If you're not with us, then obviously you're against us!" and of course shot the player on sight for not accepting immediately upon being offered the job within about 2 seconds. Either way "IT'S JUST BAD!"
Gundam in the anime: *The most powerful and invincible mobile suit*
Gundam in this Game: *gets destroyed by a zaku’s machine gun.*
Not just destroyed, destroyed with lethal damage!
it can be killed in one punch in this game
I wish
I would not be surprised if it was destroyed by a small pebble
To be fair Gundams aren't Invincible in UC but I'm pretty sure They can take more than a few popshots from a Standard Zaku machine gun than this
Other considered names for the Principality of Zeon:
-The Council of Jimmy
-Billy's Cool Guy Squad
-The Porcelain Kingdom
i like bully's cool guy squard
Those Mean Guys Down the Space Street
Shame Boy Tough Gang
All glory to The Porcelain Kingdom!
THE GIHREN YOUTH.
In the anime, Amuro the pilot read the manual.
Yep, he read the manual after jumping in the Gundam.
Yeah, but he was also a space psychic.
Also the Gundam survived those first Zaku shots while it was just getting up from its fking bed, not being paper thin that construction Balls are better than the “advanced" suit in this game
At least it wasn't another Gary Stu protagonist who instantly knows what to do and turns out to be better at it than everyone else.
His dad also designed the Gundam and he had read the blueprints at home beforehand.
@@Dynaman21 He wasn't one at the beginning.
"And Char just keeps taunting you like his mask isn't made from old cereal boxes" Comedy gold.
I will pay any amount of Mars children to buy that mask
I'm here to laugh at you.
Shar
I like how you had a guy who was a Gundam nerd but he somehow never told you "Shar" is the right pronunciation
They kicked him out of the studio before he ever had the chance lol
the best way i explain this to people is it's Sunny and Cher not Sunny and Chair
Okay, damn lol. I was like, "Have I just been saying it wrong all these years?"
boom boom boom!... duuun duuuuun! (a giant robot head lands on the floor)
Ayy

Wow, I wasn't expecting to find you in here of all places.

Thank you, I-

You didn't accept in time. You're fired, go.
i laughed way too hard at this lol
_The Gundam then suddenly gets destroyed off screen, robot head on floor, Game Over_
Can anybody say fail horn!
LOL
@@KawaiiKing64 How!?
It seems like all of this could have been avoided if the main character just waited for traffic to clear up.
So the main point of the game is we need to be patient or we might find ourselves smack dab in the middle of a mech war? LOL.
Oh hey Gohan!
@@Trunkilo Wait. I thought you were in the middle of fighting Broly with Vegeta.
@@songohan3321 No I wasn't
@@TheModelGamer I don't want to be caught up in the middle of a mech war... unless I'm an experienced mech pilot first, that is... which I'm not...yet.
I know literally nothing about Gundam. But watching this I can almost feel how fans feel about this
It’s not great.
What makes it kinda weird than being bad, that this was made before it was popular in The West staring with Wing, and being made on the same company that created The Journeymen Project just overall...questionable...
Just saying the duchie of jeanne drives me insane..
you have no idea the rage the fan base has towards this game
@@frogfinance4605 well I can imagine it😅
Not enough people in the comments about "try taking out the c*ck" being the most legendary part of this video imo. Absolutely killed me 😭
also, “Did someone just take a shot at me?”
@@loganharris7801On his standard aptitude test scores, the Reaction Time box just says "yes."
I choose to believe that the first scene you kept failing at is canon, and this is the story of a guy who was tired of sitting in traffic, so he drove into a military base, ran into a hangar, was told to get into a giant robot, didn’t, and then just stood around as another robot walked in and blew it up. The end!
I mean if just some random nobody came into the hangar im 100% sure that would be what happens anyway
oh, there's a scene in "Robotech" where a STUNT plane pilot wound up in a mech he had no idea how to fly...quite silly.
@@ericb3157
is there any reason as to why you capitalised "stunt"?
@@theonlybilge to emphasise that he knew nothing about COMBAT.
he had never even fired a gun before.
@@ericb3157
Well....that was why he fired like a moron and ran out of ammo before he could kill the last guy
Y'know there is just something cosmic about seeing anime characters reimagined as live AMERICAN actors in crude cosplay XD
If Michael Bay ever gets around that Evangelion movie like he said one time (iirc), I'mma expect it to be exactly like this, lmao
The new Cowboy Bebop Netflix show comes to mind.
Well, Gundam characters are from a wide variety of nationalities so it's one of the few anime instances where American actors would fit lol. Not that THESE recasts are the right fit anyway though lol
I mean a lot of anime series especially sci-fi features European inspired characters as opposed to Japanese. Spike Spiegel is not Japanese, now as far as the characters in Gundam 0079 most of them have Japanese names so it would be appropriate to use Japanese American actors.
@@theghostofyourwastedmoney9007 Oh geezus it's the money I wasted buying Naruto Clash of Ninja Revolution for the Wii come back to haunt me! That was a decade or so ago why must you still torment me?!
Fun fact: In Japan, this game is considered a Kusoge (shitty game) and a Newtype game because of the amount of time to make decisions and the amount of guesswork. They also call Char "Char Agonable" (Ago the Japanese word for chin) or "Agoi Suisei" (The Chin Comet) because of his big chin
Japan knows about this game?
@@universalperson Japan has weird dweebs into weird foreign entertainment too.
@@universalperson AFAIK the game is actually released in Japan for PS1, even featuring JP dub from the actual VAs of the anime, with the original video including American actors strangely enough.
I love that it’s called a Newtype game
They’re probably the only people who could actually play this game without dying a billion times
@@ZX3000GT1 AFAIK??
It is also important to note that the Gundam:
- Had a complex navigation AI
- Was resilient as hell
- Outgunned Char
And its the fact that Char out piloted Amuro yet failed to properly shoot it down that created this interesting dynamic between the two that just kept growning from that.
Especially as Amuro became a far more skilled pilot. Very Goku and Vegeta like as the war went on.
Just went to read wiki about the Gundam Amuro uses. The shield part still poggles me. If its more resilient than the Gundam.... why not make Gundam from same material as the shield? In wiki there was no mention about the materials being so rare that they don't have enough to make full sized mechas from it.
@@samamies88 just like in the real world metals have different properties to it
It might've beem heavier, more brittle or get bent more easely than gundariuk
It was the only one of it's kind at the time and designed to combat the Zakus. Amuro thankfully had the instructions inside the mobile suit. 😂 Even stumbling across it was pure luck.
@@samamies88
Maybe it's because the shield's material doesn't let heat transfer while the Gundam's armor let's heat escape? If they made a mech out of the shield it might overheat and break down or something?
I don't know, I'm just spitballing ideas.
Therapist : Dollar Store Char isn't real, he can't hurt you
Dollar Store Char:
*Here comes char plays intensifies.....Via a Kazoo*
Rerez: Walks out to actually play the game. Zaku with an axe: “Allow me to introduce myself.”
GUNDAAAAAAAAAM!!!
How did it even get that close? Let alone the Zaku before it? Wouldn't there be some sort of alert?
@@adamdenardis5438 Well, there is a reason. And that reason is:
*GunDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!*
Rerez: HAS A GIGANTIC NERVOUS BREAKDOWN
The most criminal thing this game does is having the Gundam being vulnerable to Zaku machineguns
makes it feel like you are either playing a gm or a ball
The Gundam is considerably less resilient in the original novelization (first released as three novellas) known as *Awakening, Escalation, and Confrontation* .
Not only is it vulnerable to most standard projectiles (the same ones it shrugs off in the anime), it gets destroyed by a twitchy Dom pilot during the battle of A Bao A Qu (which the Feds lose in this timeline) just before Char wins Amuro over to his cause. And if that's not weird enough, the White Base later teams up with Char to stage a coup against the Zabis.
@@AtheistPirate that sounds wild
It's been years since I've watched MSG, but doesn't Amuro spend the first few fights getting smacked around while he's fumbling for the controls? Anime RX-78 shrugged off like 10 game overs worth of damage for game RX-78 in the first few episodes.
The true best moment.
“GunDAAAAAAAAAAAAM” *descends into lunacy*
14:18
Yes🤣🤣 I laughed so hard at that part
He finally lost it
Riddle moment
@@cream3281 Ah, yes, Shane is in actuality, The Riddler/Edward Nigma. Makes sense. Now, he just needs to start unnecessarily start quizzing people while wearing a green jumpsuit covered in question marks.
Sounds like a Cyber-Newtype.
"Char" is actually pronounced "shar". That's like, the one thing the game gets right.
was about to comment on that
But the fact that they mispell Char's name as Shar in 20:14 probably means that they were just lucky HAHAHA
@@radicard5193 I saw that lol. I imagine they just heard how his name is said in the anime, and I guess that's easier to figure out than "Zeon"
I pronounce it "asshole".
I believe this game uses the same translations for names that the novels did when they got brought over.
Someone should have a "Hello: Wombat Continues" mod for halo the master chief collection
Did someone say WOMBAT!?
Look up Hello: Combat Has Changed
and Cursed Halo
Hello: Reach
Starring bears.
Think we can also have a mod with lines being from Master Chef/Hell's Kitchen?
Fun fact: this game is memetically bad in Japan with the nickname for Char in this being called "Ago no Suisei" or The Chin Comet due to the actors rather large chin
Is this the origin of The Crimson Chin?
@@autobotstarscream765 Uh, yes.
@@jakepierson6208 Who knew Butch Hartman was an old-school Gundam fan? 😂
@@autobotstarscream765 Lol.
Lmao that's hilarious
I love Frittata. She's adorable. I need her as a desktop assistant.
But why is she an anthropomorphic blue frying pan?
The idea of a Zaku II blowing up the Gundam in like... 2 shots is hilarious to me :D
IKR! And even worse the fact that the Guntank survived more shots than the Gundam was also ridiculous lol
What happened to the quote "Weapons are useless against it!" Introducing the Budget cut Gundan
That's is one of the more ridiculous points of that intro. Literally any of the other weapons used by the Zaku II would have a better chance of destroying the Gundam that fast. The Zaku machine gun is one of the most ineffective weapons in the entire franchise, alongside the all of the original weapons used by the Genoace.
@@magnatcleo2043 can we really call the Heat Stick the Genoace had a Weapon, heck, the Heat Shovel of the Worker type Mobile Suit Desperado is ten times more effective than the Genoace's Heat Stick (and it's even more stupid when you see that both are technically the Same MS, the Desperado's frame being the basis for the Genoace's Frame)
@@DarkAnon100 It's more like a mech-sized curling iron than a weapon. Even the pitiful reach of the heat hawk is still way better than the heat stick, but I'd still go for the gouf's heat sword over either of those.
I can't unsee how much "Shar" looks like Other Joe from AngryJoe's reviews, especially when he does his dopey smiles.
Hey Gundam pilot, wanna pilot a zombie gundam?
@@ChimeraMK Lol Death Army
@@mercenarygundam1487 Thing is with the Death Army, if the backstory is to be believed, it's less "Do you want to pilot a Zombie Gundam" and more "Shut up meat slave, you belong to the DG now"
Playing as a nameless player while picking random paths that lead to either progress or death, this is a lot like a choose your own adventure novel.
except those are actually fun
Note: Using the scenes from the anime would likely cost a crapload in licensing costs. After all, this is why the Japanese Tatsunoko vs. Capcom had hand-drawn cutscenes while the Western version had them replaced with stills done by the people at Udon Comics.
We are talking the 90s when licencing was dirt cheap. Before Toonami there was just no demand for it in the USA where the Christian Broadcasting Network got the rights to Onward Leo (Kimba) for pennies on the dollar just to fill air then you had Robotech that was made from three different Anime. Oh and Mobile Suit Gundam for the Sega Saturn that came out in 1995 just ripped clips from the show.
@@Psy500 1. that Sega Saturn game was only released in Japan, thus getting legal permission to get the rights would be easy. This game being covered here was made in the west, making it much more complicated for the rights.
2. International right are a much more complicated thing that that. Even if they were adapting a Japanese game with animated cutscenes created specifically for it, they might not be able to use them in the western release. Again, see what happened to Tatsunoko vs. Capcom. The Japanese version had animated cutscenes made by Tatsunoko for endings, but the western version of the game had them replaces with stills done by Udon Comics.
3. It honestly might have been cheaper to make these FMV sequences because licensing can be that complicated and pricey. Hell, part of the reason the AB Group created a separate Canadian dub of Dragonball Z was because it would be cheaper to make their own dub with the Canadian VAs that simply licensing the dub made by Funimation.
Intresting
According to their website, which you can read, they actually paid to licence anime footage in the US and EU before deciding against using it because they Eastern rights were expensive and it meant they wouldn't be able to release there if the western launch went well (also where most Pippin users were, probably why they targeted the pippin).
The anime footage was cheap enough for them to get the license to use it and then not do so and it not be a major affect on their budget. But the price of it in Japan did force their hand, so I guess you're unintentionally half right.
Dear lord! Calling this a disservice to Gundam would be a disservice to disservices!
It is more like the Island episode
Wake up Samurai, we've got a Rerez video to watch.
Hey, Zero.

It’s always a good sign when a game has what is essentially two QTEs in the first two minutes of player control.
"Look at this dorky guy running through the door..."
Now I'm picturing a sci-fi security system run by a snarky, disillusioned AI that keeps injecting commentary into all of its readouts. "Enemy Zakus are approaching the base. Christ, look at those codpieces. How insecure _was_ the designer? Anyway, readying defense cannons, since you losers can't do a goddamn thing around here."
The Federation just decided to put an even snarkier HAL 9000 in the defense system core, for some reason. I guess snarky AIs have more processing power?
I can see a haro from the anime being like that ngl. (Haro is that round green robot Amuro modified in the first gundam and they also show up throughout the franchise) In Gundam 00, we had an angry purple haro, why not a snarky one making Mystery Science Theater 3000 style commentary? XD
'Alert, though if the sirens and the burning buildings weren't enough of an indicator to you incompetent apes I have no hope for the Federation.'
A Gundam series where the main character is accompanied by an AI and has to constantly curb its snippy attitude and growing bloodlust would be pretty fun. Like a mix of the Zero System from Wing and Durandal from Marathon.
"When you can snatch the wings from my hand, grasshopper, you will be a Gundam pilot."
reminds me of a "Sonic the Hedgehog" comic book where Princess Sally got a similar challenge...
she CHEATED by using her KNEE to KNOCK the item out of the person's hand!
When you're a Gundam nerd and know it is a translation error but also factually correct.
to who are you replying to?
Yeah, i remember reading that in the novelization of Gundam 0079 released in america Zakus were actually called "Zacks" .
I thought that zacks was just slang in the gundam universe to refer disparagingly to the zakus
@@Yuki_Seraphim federation soldiers call them "cyclops" if i recall correctly.
You must fear the force of a jean
and did you know, they released this in Japan as well?
They got the original cast to dub over the thing.
So even Bandai of Japan didn't care.
Either that or they chose to translate it so everyone in Japan could believe that we f*baa*ed up their franchise so horribly and appreciate the original anime that much more.
As someone who is a massive fan of Gundam, seeing what they did to Char made me have to pause the video for a good 10 minutes while I recover from laughter and frustration. Dear sweet God I'm glad this game was not my first introduction to the franchise!
I feel so sorry the 3d modelers and and animators for this game. it's a little rough but it still looks pretty good for the time.
I especially like that shot of Char's Zaku II in the White Base Hangar. That shot looks like something that would go the box for one of the 90s model kits.
9:49 Groundhog Day: Gundam edition.

I hope that we have more adventures of Master Chef and Frittata in the future.
And Carrotana.
@Zero Bullet's i dont understand how anyone can be disappointed with her. She did her best!
With Batman humming the Halo theme in the background.
Fun fact, in the movie BIG. The main character wore a pair of pajamas, which was covered in Japanese robots. One of many robots on it was the Rx-78.
So one could say BIG was the first time Gunman was shown to a wide North American audience.
Would have been even worse had they thrown in an extra prompt to make you stop the car to hit the foot of the Gundam, but if you didn't, it would step on your car instead.
This game is as faithful to its source material as Dragonball Evolution
I try to forget about that movie. I watched 3 minutes, and trashed it.
@@samusx2175 Only three minutes !? You missed all the good parts ! You didn't even give it a chance !
Eh, it's a little better than that. At least the Mobile Suits look accurate enough, even if they're terribly animated and technically inaccurate. Noah Bright also looks about what I would expect him to look like in live action, although his acting could be better.

@@samusx2175 Dare I mentioned Zac Snyder was almost the director of DBE...!?
To be completely fair the Japanese pronunciation of Char's name is Shar just like they do here. Literally everything else isn't in line with the Japanese pronunciations so I doubt that was on purpose though
Zak and Jion are actually how the Japanese pronounce Zaku and Zeon but Tomino and the official romanizations have made it clear that that's just due to Japanese pronunciation rules and they're intended to be Zaku and Zeon.
@@SOMEGUY7893 yeah but Char is still using French pronunciation is most dubs, being named after singer.
This is basically an interactive SyFy Channel original movie.

The "Char being pronounced Shar" thing is actually right. One of the ONLY things this game got right apparently.
With a French dialect CH can sound like a SH.

"Captain Quattro, he is a SHAR..."
The fact that the " Don't Watch This One " is on Gundam Seed Destiny made me wheeze.
Is it really THAT bad? I mean; I remember them showing a Gundam anime on Toonami, and thinking it was very boring; when I was 11, and waiting for DBZ to come on because that was a great series; and MSG here looked boring as hell to me; and I'd try my best to do abridged voices for the characters, because I felt bored. I mean; the giant robots shooting and attacking each other looked cool, but whatever that Gundam anime was on Toonami?..It's Just Bad...so bad; that I swear I can't even remember the name of the series; just how boring that one was to me. I don't hate the Gundam series of course, the very idea of piloting giant robots is cool to me. But I just can't seem to get into the series. But I do love this video and this series with these guys though.
@@shawnfields2369 There were a number of Gundam shows on Toonami. First was Wing, then the original, I think G Gundam was after that. Also SD and Seed were aired over here at some point. I liked Wing and G Gundam, the others (the Universal Century ones, oddly enough that's most of em lol) didn't grab me as much back then. I should look into em more though.
@@shawnfields2369 I actually think that seed destiny Is a good show. But the thing Is that it had rushed production and because of that some parts of it are Hard to understand and can seem sudden (and it Also happens that Neo roanoke Is a character that feels very unfinished). But overall I would say it's very good.
Its crazy how something like Gundam can be created so long ago yet continue to draw in a new audience every generation. I have distinct (yet drunken) memories of being in my early 20s sitting with a friend as she tried to explain the plot and lore behind Gundam. Now in 2021 my 11 year old son is getting hard-core into it and discovered model building from it. Its actually really rad.

Luckily, many people's first Gundam exposure was on Toonami. Not talking about G Gundam. Also, I had forgotten about the Apple Pippin's existence.
Though depending on where you grow up with, it either the original and / or wing
Even Apple forgot about the Pippin's existence.
Or denies heavily out of shame
It also seems like everybody has forgotten about the PS3 release *Gundam Crossfire* and that's a very good thing.
@@drakkenmensch or Encounters in Space
We dodged two beam rifle shots there before Gundam Wing aired on Toonami. 😁👍🏾
6:57 Funny story, as a kid I had to write an essay on a media I watched or read, and I wanted to do it on Gundam. So I talked about Zeon, but the teacher thought it was Zion and thought that Gundam was a racist show, and apparently I got Gundam banned from my school 🤔
Well, he wasn't wrong, in a way. The original romanization in the 80's *WAS* "Zion". It wasn't meant to be racist, it was just meant to have vague religious connotations (kind of like how the captain of the ship carrying the future of humanity is named "Noah").
Western religious issues weren't/aren't topical in Japan or hot button issues. Instead it's more like how western writers use names from ancient Greek or Norse mythology.
Every time I hear the game title, I always imagine Gundam in a tuxedo suit entering the gunbarrel sequence, complete with the iconic 007 theme.

I can't believe you missed out on the fact that Shar can defeat your ever so advanced gundam by punching it in the face, killing you instantly.
That is crazy 😅 so he’s one punch man
To be fair, I also die if I get punched in the face. It’s kind of annoying.
How does punching the gundam in the face destroy it? isn't the cockpit in the chest area?
@@ElHarmonyV yes in literally 90% of mobile suits the cockpit is in the chest and the head is the main camera with the only exception that I can think of right now being the Sazabi which has it's cockpit in the head but its a bigger than average MS.
so to answer your question, no punching the head would not and should not cause a gundam to blow up. a leo maybe, but not a gundam.
@@ShiroZerotheDragoon The Zeong, Guntank, Psycho Gundam, and Psycho Gundam Mark II also have head-mounted cockpits. Outside the Universal Century Series, theres all of the Vagan mobile suits from Gundam AGE.

Also, his father didn't die, he comes back later...and pretty much completely unstable and insane. I think he died in the episode he returned in but I could be wrong.

He doesn’t die in this game tho: they changed it.

"They don't teach maneuvers like that in Flight Training!" 21:07
The spellings used in this game are the same as the original translations of the 0079 novels. There phonetic translations of the Japanese pronounceion so Char is Shar and zaku is zack
Sunrise wouldn't bother to write a official translation list until the original series came to DVD with Mark Summons as the us gundam advisor.
yeah, same thing with ''jeanne'' and Zeon. in japanese, some words that starts with Z are pronounced like J if they have yu after (ex: Zyuranger is pronounced Juuranger) the translators probably thought that every word starting with Z were pronounced like a J hence ''Jeanne' instead of Zeon

That batman cameo during the Master Chef bit was pure gold!
“That is one amazing shield!”
Rising of the shield hero Gundam
Most hardcore gaming moment: successfully accepting the wings.
13:51: Shane: "This is madness!"
Gundam 0079: The War For Earth: "Madness? No! This.....Is.....Gundaaaaaaaaaaaam!"
then the gundam explodes trying to kick shane into the pit
@@andrewaftontheandroidhedge2780 Which pushes Shane over the edge. Or the explosion is so weak it gives Shane only a new haircut.
Is it Gundam? Really? I don’t think it’s Gundam.
Ah, I missed this. In regards to the game, this is the worst possible entry point for fans to get into the series. 40 years later, and it still leaves a bad taste in everyone's mouth. Great work as always, you two
I thought G-Saviour was universally hated
@@koweedate yes most fans try to forget that the movie existed. Even sunrise themselves to an extent as they never refenced anything from G-saviour until build fighters back in 2013.
40 years?
@@koweedate Never heard of it, but it is another in a line of poor executions for this brand. Thankfully, they are small blemishes on the armor of this titan of a franchise
@@extragoogleaccount6061 Oh oops. That's screw up on my part
This game makes G Saviour look like a masterpiece
That's a pain.
It's also worth noting that G-Saviour also made a cameo in Build Fighter...
This video is the reason I've just finished watching the original Mobile Suit Gundam film and loved it - and I'm about to get a snack and then get right on with watching every single other Gundam thing I can find!
Thanks for introducing me to this
Screw the Snyder cut, *this* is the big release of the weekend!
2:44
Not going to comment on the giant Hello Kitty, aren't we? Haha.
Screw the Hello Kitty, I'm more interested in that SD Zaku. At least I THINK that's a Zaku
@@Ashurman666 It's a Gelgoog.
@@linkweather9061 God damn it I always get those too confused cause of the mono eye
@@Ashurman666 Most if not all Zeon suits have just the cycloptic eye as their main camera. And it doesn't help a lot of their main suits do sport similar designs.
@@Jdogg1022 Yeah exactly. I guess what makes the Zaku stand out a bit more is that shield on it's right shoulder
"It's a gundam!" You're about to beetlejuice my dude up in here.
19:41 his name is spelled Char but pronounced Shar, so I'll give them that one.
I missed you guys 🤗
And to be fair, Shane's low cost cosplay of "Shar" looked better than the original costume, change my mind
I think it's the comedic aspect of it, and the fact it is quite literally easily imitated.
Why don't you change your own mind, I'm not your mother
@@karlieakaike3311 It's supposed to be a challenge, for discussion.
@@Chaos89P i found the shoulder pat falling off giving me a good laugh
Me, a UC Gundam fan: Look how they massacred my boy!
Also, a quick correction: Amuro's father didn't die in the original series.
Don't worry. We still have Gundam vs Zeta Gundam, Zeonic Front, and Battle Operations.
Edit:
And Encounters in Space, the fighting games, Federation vs Zeon, Dynasty Warriors Gundam, Neverending Tomorrow, (lists games endlessly)....
Well in the films recapping the series he "Fell down the stairs" but his actual fate is left pretty ambiguous. His lack of an appearance in Zeta and Double Zeta, and really anything else UC really help to lean into the idea that he's gone even if it's never been officially confirmed.
But you are correct that the series itself doesn't cover any of that. He DOES however have massive brain damage from oxygen depravation in the TV series. Which would not be fun for him. But that's on me for not noticing that since I was the most Gundam knowledgeable person in the writers room for this video XD
If I were to get into Gundam, where do I even start with a franchise that's been going on this long?
@@EpicB The original series. It's free on Crunchyroll.
@@nrein89 So just watch all the series in release order?
I think "Zak" is the correct pronunciation of Zaku, japanese phonetic can't have words ending in a consonant except when it is a "n", so a "u" is placed next to the consonant. And with the Zeon/Jeanne problem i think it's due to the confusion between the two translitteration systems, in the Hepburn system zi=zi, but in the Katsuragi system zi=ji. I think the translators here translated directly from a text without ever bothering watching the anime to hear the proper pronunciation.
So in America the u was silent and in Japan they pronounced it.
Huh...with Dragon Ball Super its the other way around. (Zamasu)
@@CGB_CrashSo, with Super it's just pronounced "Zamas", and not "Zamasu", then?
Yes it is true that words cannot end in japanese by a consonant (exept for ん), but this doesn’t prove anything at all. MS like DOM (ドム) and the Gogg (ゴッグ) are dropping the u sound at the end and that’s why you don’t say domu nor goggu in english for instance. In the Zaku’s case, the u is still present (and it was written as such since the 80’) so you pronounce the u sound and no, Zak isn’t the correct way to say it
It’s just a typical case of "no one involved in this game bothered to check"
Why does low-budget Char look legitimately creepier WITH the rice krispies box mask at 28:48?
your cereal box char outfit is killing me man lol
16:22
This is probably just me, but I don't think they have an animation of the Gundam getting blown back, because I just see it walking backwards while being flung away
They were probably to lazy and thought no one would notice
Imagine going to war and getting wounded and luckily surviving, you go home at some point and are told you're going to be receiving a medal. You go to get the medal, the guy holds it out, you reach for it...and they swipe it away and tell you you were too slow, and then just kick you out
I feel like them kissing your ass about how good you are at controlling the robot thingy is the same as Pokémon gym leaders telling you how connected you and the bidoof you picked up 5 minutes ago are.
Bandai: *makes a failed game*
Namco that same year: *"that's humiliating... ...bring in the Klo."*
The Klo as in... Klonoa? 🥺
@@nobodyinparticular9640 wahoo, buddy!
*"...and bring in the tears."*
If it's Klonoa, at least that game's awesome
@@ZX3000GT1 yup!
@@oh_no_no_no oh yes, I love Klonoa, and hate how Namco has banished him in the realm of the occasional cameo xd
So, this is basically a Netflix adaptation of Gundam?
It’s actually worse.
Thanks for predicting the future Weirdo :)
If I’m not wrong, this game came out long before Netflix was launched.
Netflix doesn't exist in the '90s. So, Blockbuster adaptation then.
@@mintstar3703 That's not the point.
14:18
Best gundam screaming in gundam universe
No joke but I hope that Master Chef becomes a recurring character.
I'm 100% confident that's just a GM with the Gundam color schemes and head fixed onto it.
ya becuse it died to a zaku mini gun
This.... had been the best 30 minutes I ever spent watching. No questions asked, even if I don't watch Gundam
That montage of them dying in the hanger while trying to figure out what the hell they're supposed to do cracks me up everytime.
Char looks like what happens when you order your Halloween costumes from WISH.
I actually got a cool umbreon hoodie from wish
