"Mobile Suit Gundam 00" on Sci Fi's Ani-Monday Series Talkback (Spoilers)

Check out the fanbase. All love and little hate. You think people would dislike his guts a little more.

Agreed, it can go into another of explanations. However, I decided to focus on Gender Theory, and what questions that could be asked from this line of inquiry.

Naturally it would be silly to assume the whole hate of Nena is just because she's a girl. But to say this is a non-factor within the impact of the event is ignoring how the viewer might react to such an event.

It poses a question: Would people be just as shocked if one of the Trinity brothers instead of Nena?

Perhaps the show simply didn't display these tragedy in such an event to cause shock in the viewers.

Then again, it might be the fact I've witness witnessed the fictional horrors of the Draka, the destruction of Alderdran, the near extinction of humanity (several times), the heat death of the universe, Manos: the HanRAB of Fate, the various Man-Machine wars, the Anu rebellion, the horrors of the Hondo dictatorship, the Algernon incidents, fanfiction, the decline and fall of the Galactic Empire, Man-bug wars, the destruction of the 13 Colonies and subsequent exodus, wars against demons, the horrors unleashed by Naraku, asimlimation by various evil entities, the various cosmic horrors (and there are far worse than Cthulhu), The Wicker Man remake, Let's Play Phantasmogoria 2, the Bloddy Valentine and Break the World incidents, the One Year War, the Helot revolt, the destruction brought upon by Morgoth, the tragedy of the elves, and the Bride's own wedding massacre just to name a few.

After all that, a wedding massacre seems pretty tame in comparison. At this point, I only retain my sanity through snarky comments.


But not too seriously. This is fictional after all, and sometimes one neeRAB to be reminded of this.

Other than that you're supposed to be entertained?


Alright, I agree with that point.
 
Unless extraordinary reasons may explain her behavior. It may not excuse her actions, but it will decide if Nena can be considered morally cupable of her actions.
 
Thank you. It's too easy nowadays to write off a certain show as a reflection of another when we've barely touched the top of the series. First impressions are important, but not always correct. (Like how I thought Tieria was a woman for the longest time before the original first episode aired >_> )

>_> Yes, but Setsuna doesn't look like he has an eating disorder *waggles finger*.
 
He does one of those once in a blue moon. And WoW isn't connected to CN, anyways. It was just a joke anyways, but it would be awesome if SciFi picked up Cullen.

From what I've seen of Brad Swaile, all his voices sound the same. :P
 
I'll be honest. These eps hit a rather, uncomftorable tone in light of recent world events. It goes to show they weren't shying from sensitive issues.

The princess came across as a bit Reelena like unfortunately.
 
Got schedule news for Gundam 00.

It's going to keep steadily going two episodes a week until February. That's when things get interesting.

First, on Feb. 2, we're going to get FOUR (presumably premiere) episodes of Gundam 00 taking up ALL of Ani-Monday. http://www.scifi.com/schedulebot/index.php3?date=2-FEB-2009&feed_req=US:Pacific:W

Then, on Feb. 9, we have the (presumed) finale of Season 1 with the first Appleseed movie playing after it. http://www.scifi.com/schedulebot/index.php3?date=9-FEB-2009&feed_req=US:Pacific:W

Then, after a week-long break, either Gundam 00 is going to be rerun OR Season 2 may start up. http://www.scifi.com/schedulebot/index.php3?date=23-FEB-2009&feed_req=US:Pacific:W

Interesting indeed.
 
I still find it interesting how CB is wondering if they were just meant to be destroyed all along in order to unite the world, and then you have Aeolia's message and the unlocking of the Trans Am system. Just to keep everything nice and arabiguous...
 
That's G-Gundam, where theme designs are legitimate. It's basically wrestling with Mecha.

Gundam00, you're essentially fighting a global war to prevent war... in a machine that has a nice perm.

Then again, I'm probably nitpicking, considering that Soma flies around in a bright pink giant robot.

I didn't consider that Al's transforming gundam hwas a little more syrabolic.

Speaking of which, this has to be the first Gundam series in which I know the characters better by their names than their gundams. In fact, this may the first Gundam I've seen in which the major focus isn't on the coolness of the gundams, but the coolness of the characters.

That, and it probably doesn't help that the Gundams have difficult names to remeraber...
 
You think that's bad? Feldt Lacus makes me jump every time she talks!

So Setusna is next door neigrabroadors to Mir and Saiji?! That's their only connection!

Lain's Dad is not taking any crap from Celesital Being!
 
Wow...Tieria's "the world is being tested" line sold me on his voice. Really good.

Marina Ismail sounRAB divine.
 
Me, too. Anyone have a screengrab?

Gee, Celestrial Being headquarters need never fear an attack; they have something big enough to shield the whole satellite.
 
Ali is loved as a villain. Evil acts only make a full villain cooler.

Nena, however, was judged as a hero, because until that moment with the wedding, the audience still believe she was salvageable.

It's all about the first-impressions, and how future actions determine how the first-impressions change.

Oh, and
there is something extra Ali will try to get for killing the reporter.
Yes, Ali is evil, but he tries not to kill for free.
