      I agree, I (unfortunately) put myself through Seed and Seed Destiny) and I was so dissapointed. Seed starts off great objectively, a rethinking of the UC....and then devolves into absolute nonsense with the MC.
      When the sequel came out, I was cautiously optimistic since it was a new lead, and I actually liked the first arc until halfway though the show, Kira shows back up and the rest just becomes nonsense.
      So when 00 came out and there were actually stakes at the end of season 1, it was a breath of fresh air. I really enjoyed that show specifically, especially with all the different characters and perspectives. I dont need a show to kill everyone, (IBO comes to mind, though that show was good too) but Seed almost became a parody of itself.
      And to be fair, even 00 did have some level of MC plot armor

    • @sabercyclone041
      @sabercyclone041 Před 3 lety +11

      While I recognise the collective hate boner so many people have for Kira, I'd argue that if you're thinking that the arguments in the video hold up to scrutiny, then you haven't considered the evidence in terms of the levels of science and technology as of 70CE.
      Firstly, with the duel between the Strike and the Aegis, the durability of the pilot suit isn;t being taken into account here. The fact is that Andrew Waltfeld survived far worse (an internal explosion where there was no phase shift to absorb any of the same type of explosion, he wasn't restrained in his pilot seat and restraints at the time of the explosion and it took weeks for him to get medical attention) yet he survived and recovered enough to be a mobile suit pilot within a couple of years. Furthermore, we know from that, that medical science had progressed to the point where not only was genetic engineering possible, but cybernetic prostheses were a reality. That is to say that the core biological trait of all coordinators was an enhanced immune system and more durable body as a direct response to Type-S Influenza. Yet the fact is that Kira was limp and unconscious when Lowe found him, Lowe carried him to Reverend Malchio, who put him in a medical capsule for critical care, at which point he was rushed to Aprilius, the PLANTS capital where the Kline family gave him what would have been the finest medical care that money could buy. Even then he was unconscious for days and possibly weeks, judging by how long it would have taken the Archangel to limp its way to Alaska. Even when he came to, he was bedridden and unable to move for days. Furthermore, as the Re:HOME does appear in SEED, the Astray mangas can reasonably be classed as canon, rather than a retcon.
      As for number 2, there is a credible explanation. The fact is that most of the fleets that were affected by Genesis, were built around a presumption that nuclear radiation and the shielding that it would require, were no longer an issue.As such, the shielding around the cockpit and command centre, is highly unlikely to be shielded against gamma radiation. Conversely, the nuclear Gundams would have been built so that the cockpits were shielded against reactor leaks when they were sitting on top of a nuclear reactor. We know from the Rau's comments during the Battle of Panama, that the reason that Strike Daggers were so easily defeated by the Gungnirs, was because their EMP shielding was inferior to even that of the GINNs. It stands to reason that cockpit shielding against radiation would also be a design concern. In fact I'm particularly reminded of the scene in Pacific Rim, where it's noted that the 1st generation Jaegers were rushed into production so quickly that no one had considered the possibility of them being cancer-killer deathtraps. As such, I'd argue that the only 3 craft that could have potentially protected their pilots from getting fried in the Battle of Jachin Due, were the Freedom, the Justice and the Providence.
      That leads me to the third instance. The fact is that the cutoff switch killing off the reactor immediately does indeed make perfect sense, due to how the N-Jammer works. The N-Jammer disrupts all nuclear chain reactions instantaneously, while the N-Jammer Canceller acts as a protective shielding device to protect the chain reactions of a nuclear reactor. Once the N-Jammer Canceller is deactivated, that protection stops and the chain reaction should reasonably stop with it. In fact we have a real-world example of an instantaneously stopping chain reaction as I understand it, in the form of pebble bed reactors. Pebble Bed Reactors have no emergency cut-off fail-safe systems, because they don't need them. They rely on a principle known as Dopler broadening, which states that the hotter a nuclear reactor runs at, the more space needed between atoms to allow for a chain reaction to be able to continue. The Dopler broadening that the reactor pebbles are designed around has a nominal operating temperature of 800-1200 degrees Celsius, while the graphite shielding has a melting point of 2000 degrees. However the pebbles themselves have been designed so in the event of a coolant failure, the moment the temperature rises to 1600 degrees Celsius, the spacing between atoms is too small to allow chain reactions to continue, and so the nuclear reactions are stopped dead in their tracks until the reactor cools down a nominal operating temperature. There's no reason to imagine that the N-Jammer Canceller and its effects wouldn't operate in a very similar manner. Incidentally, if you're wondering what the heck I'm talking about with pebble bed reactors, google "let a thousand reactors bloom" to find a 2004 wired article, which does a great job of explaining this real world technology.
      As for surviving the explosion, the thing to note is that what would have exploded, was most likely the battery used as an energy buffer, which makes the explosion no worse than what Kira and Athrun both survived when the Aegis self-destructed. However even then there's another thing to note, which is how valuable the pilots of these units would have been considered. We know that the nuclear Gundams were intended for the aces of the ZAFT millitary, meaning that you're talking about the highest trained and most skilled pilots of ZAFT. Given that the pilots at that level would be just as rare and valuable as the nuclear Gundams themselves, and far harder to replace, there's a strong likelihood that the pilot's compartment on them was heavily reinforced to protect the pilot from the suit exploding as much as possible.
      As for number 4, as it's established, any Natural wouldn't have survived it, but Kira isn't a Natural, he's a Coordinator and as I already noted, it;s an established fact that Coordinators, as a direct response to Type-S Influenza, were genetically engineered to have superior immune systems and therefore by reasonable extension, had bodies which could take far more of a punishment than naturals, while also being far more easily able to heal.
      Arguably when you're talking about plot armour, the question which someone should always ask is “is this plausible in universe” and the answer with these is essentially yes. In fact I'd argue that Heero Yui surviving the Wing self-destruction is way-more of a Lazarus moment than Kira's brushes with death. As such, I'm simply not convinced that when it comes to Kira Yamato, there's enough lazy writing there to constitute plot armour.

      @@renalexander3653 Your argument comes across as somewhat hyperbolic. A "perfect co-ordinator" simply refers to a coordinator who has successfully gestated in an artificial womb, which eliminates the variables caused by the mother's own womb. Yes Coordinators had more durable bodies better immune systems and they bodies were better at healing than most naturals, however given that it's fail obvious when you look into the CE timeline that Coordinators were created directly in response to the Type-S Influenza pandemic, that's pretty understandable. Also he hardly had low level regeneration, he was just lucky and had the benefit of the best medical care that money could buy.
      The CE era had status capsules and cybernetic limbs as standard. Lowe found Kira within minutes of the explosion, where he was incapacitated and immobile, he was immediately placed in a stasis capsule and was flown to the PLANTS and he received the best medical treatment that money could buy. Even then he was unconscious for 10 days and bedridden for an extra 4. The reason the injuries don't look like they took that much if a toll is because the show time jumps in very subtle ways.

    Regarding Kira’s atmospheric re-entry, he still got pretty feverish from the ordeal and was bed-ridden. Meanwhile, both Yzak and Dearka also fell to Earth and did not seem to suffer any serious injury. I’m inclined to believe that Coordinators in general are more heat-resistant than Naturals.

      I remember Kira also mentioning that the the Strike was theoretically capable of unassisted atmospheric re-enter, according to its manual. Though he didn't get to fully test it because he would otherwise been far too separated from the Archangel, leading the Archangel to adjust it's course to end up with the Strike.

    • @EscapeVelocity11186
      @EscapeVelocity11186 Před rokem +11

      @@Hanetsune You're right. Badgiruel agrees with Kira on the Strike's manual and specifications, but also mentions that it was an untested feature and they weren't sure how hot the cockpit would get (meaning the pilot could potentially get cooked inside even if the Strike itself survived reentry). The Archangel's doctor also mentioned in the episode after that the cockpit got hotter than a natural could handle, so it was a combination of the Strike's capabilities and Kira's resistance to heat as a coordinator. A regular mobile suit of the First Bloody Valentine War, like a GINN, would have blown up on reentry (we do see Athrun survive atmospheric interface in a ZAKU in GSD, so presumably by the time the Second Bloody Valentine War erupts, regular mobile suits are tougher), and a natural pilot in the Strike may have still died to the heat - these are the two factors why Kira could survive that situation.

      @@AssaultRider555 I'm pretty sure the Ball K variant is one of the more combat-ready balls. So ya i would expect that it has more armor on it. Which even then technically the ball is actually at the advantage. It has a smaller profile, it had better sensors, better thrust, acceleration, and was cheap and easy to produce. The next advantage lies in its curved armor. All those 120mm shells from the Zaku fuckin bounced off the round armor and for the most part he probably threw off the enemies aim by throwing that space debris. If anything Shiro was just ridiculously lucky that none of the shots bounced into his equipment (which if you watch kinda did and busted up the ball a bit, none of the important bits tho).
      The ball vs Zaku is def not a stretch and could totally not be plot armor and I would say most of his saving grace was just the fact the ball was round. The best plot armor moment for Shiro would have to be the EZ-8 being cut in half by the big ass laser cannon or him fighting Custom Gouf.

He ate almost the entire drum mags from three Leos without a scratch. And while the scene of him using his Leo to waste them was cool because it was one of the few times we see a Leo do something other than explode...he should have been dead already. But the Zaku MG in his face not harming him was retarded. I mean, the concussion of Dell's impact from his Zaku falling over was enough to kill him but Shiro ate that blast wave like it was a stiff breeze.

    Really, when you think about it, Patrick has plot armor specifically because he is the universe's punching bag. Even his wife said that his "Immortal Colasaur" nickname wasn't something he should be proud of even though he, and by extension us, are very proud of it anyway.
    As for Top 3... bad writing and behind-the-scenes drama. Plain and simple. A show's flaws can only go so far before it becomes obvious that something went wrong and the show is suffering for it. I can't hate Kira Yamato because it's obvious that he was at the mercy of some terrible writers and was written in ways he was never supposed to. Basically a Troll Fic, but unironic.

    I'm not a huge Gundam fan, but every time I watch any of it it seems to me like all the mech armor in the shows adjusts its effectiveness according to what the plot demands. Sometimes things blow up from any hit, sometimes things take absurd amounts of punishment. Also mechs simply cannot be hit by weapons mounted on spaceships or tanks for some reason.

      While it's not perfect, the original Gundam is actually pretty good in this regard. For the most part, Zakus can do nothing to Amuro unless they go into melee combat, as Char did. But, as Zeon upgrades their arsenal, the Gundam becomes more vulnerable. It was a pretty cool way to show Amuro's progression from relying on his technology to relying on his skill and intuition

      Considering Strike Freedom on the paper is just a slightly taller Freedom with golden limbs. I'm not sure why they couldn't just send Freedom to the factory and excuse the new suit as an upgraded unit. IBO did it with the Barbatos, and so it got a bucket load of variants for real-life model kits. Lacus sure must have some of those upgrades lying around her house.
      Even without the IBO example, Fukuda had no excuse to not thinking of this simple solution. He directed Cyber Formula, the show based on Formula One. He did have his characters getting upgrades just because the factory come up with new cars instead of forcing them to crash into a coma every single time.

    To be fair, in the Kira vs Shin fight, Kira's plot armour is there to counter Shin's deus ex machina. Shin's attack should have done nothing to the Freedom's phase shift armour. Even the production staff knew it; if you watch the scene frame by frame, at the last second before impact, you can see a beam whip out from the top emitter and curve around the tip of the sword.

    Ali al-Saachez definitely deserves an honourable mention in S1 of 00. Lets all remember that Ali ate the beam cannon blast from the GN arms type D, the Blast caught the lower half of the throne Zwei, and destabilized the GN drive. That looked like and should have been death. But ho, in season two Ali is just back with the excuse that he was severely burned but that was the worst of it. I want to point now to Louise who was simply caught in the radiation effect of Tau drive particles, the particles poisoned her, giving her crippling headaches, nausea, shaking, and preventing her wounds from healing or taking to transplant surgery for years. But Ali, a guy who sad on a drive that exploded, was able to recover. I am calling big bull. Also as an Aside Ali is also one of my two favorite characters from 00 but doesnt change this is nonsense.

    I have one that most seem to overlook. Athrun and Meyrin when Shin shish kabobed the GOUF. Shin's blade hit into, if not near, the cockpit and machine exploded in a body of water afterwords. If the explosion didn't killed them, drowning would. I would also add water pressure, but I'll be kind and say it was shallow. I imagine Waltfeld must felt cheated considering he lost some body parts and lover from and exploded MS, while Athrun and Meyrin got out with simply recoverable injuries.

They even fixed that whole self detonation scene. Even Relena's plot armor was pulled back a bit to make her more believable.
