I am really glad ya’ll covered this series. I really enjoyed it, though I think I would have been content without the last episode and having a more ambiguous ending. I just purchased my first Gundam model kit as a result (this guy https://a.co/d/awmHP5b). My only question, what should I watch next?

Love to hear some Clamp chat! Cardcaptor Sakura was my Clamp entry point in the early 2000’s, and then consumed as much of their work as I could over the following years and remain a fan. Love their insane and convoluted narrative choices, and I really like their character designs, often with the long limbs and extensions, I think they’re so beautifully drawn. (And of course, also know for doing the character designs for Code Geass). Even though it was sometimes pretty messy, I loved Tsubasa Chronicle for just being a big victory lap of all their work, loaded with cameos and cross-dimension nonsense. Though I generally preferred xXXHolic - the series they published in tandem with Tsubasa, and that you had to read together if you wanted the full story. Such confidence to make that wild choice, I love them!

xxxholic was the first manga I ever collected, a weird clamp series that I loved. prior to that I had read chobits but it didn't really click for me.

I think ultimately, I didn’t really get into this show, I’m sorry to say. It looked pretty great, and I enjoyed the action, but I didn’t really warm up to any of the characters or get sold on the star-crossed lovers aspect of the show. Maybe unfair to this show that I watched it right after re-watching Evangelion. Not opposed to future Gundam properties, though.

Loved this show, but honestly think it’s 10% better without the final episode. This podcast has made me dig deep into a full UC watch and I’m loving it. Also I have become a gunpla sicko: just finished the legendarily annoying perfect grade Eva and I’m currently working on a perfect grade full psycho frame unicorn with the LED kit. More gundam!

I wanted to ask the crew if they were familiar with Gundam’s cousin series Macross? Released in the US as Robotech, kind of a rival mecha series to Gundam. The mecha in the show would transform between fighter jets and mobile suits, which captivated me a lot as a kid. The heroes of the series would fight an invading Alien force, the Zentradi. These aliens were human like in appearance but the size of mobile suits, which blew my little kid mind back in the nineties.

This was my first foray into Gundam and I really dug it overall! The color palette, scoring and sound design were top notch. I’m definitely interested in doing a deeper dive on Gundam! But for my family’s sake, I’m not even going to look up model kits because that’s an obsession waiting to happen.

I don’t know if it was brought up earlier, but there’s an 08th MS Team short that was made by Sunrise for the Blu-Ray release of the series called “Battle in Three Dimensions”. It’s available on YouTube and is a nice chance to see the team again.

You guys mentioned that the amount of Gundam there is to consume can be overwhelming, something that I’ve found holding me back from multiple different beloved series (Gundam included!) If you guys want something similar that’s not as demanding as MSG you should watch 86 Eighty-six. There’s a single season of 23 episodes, technically 21 w/ 2 recap eps, and contains similar themes, such as: child soldiers, PTSD, humor used as a coping mechanism… what’s not to like? It has a different take on Mechs, some names almost as goofy as ones from Gundam, and an OST consisting of only bangers.

My first Gundam was mobile fighter g and I can't recommend it enough. Rain is such a badass!

Michael Pemulis

Is there a Gundam anime where two mechs get intimate with each other? Or just hug?

The fact that we manage to get out of this series with every main cast member still alive had me thinking "Everyone lives, Rose! Just this once, everyone lives!" from Doctor Who. I did not super love episode 12 - it felt like a weird coda - I wish we could've seen Michel let the rest of the team know he found Shiro and Aina. I can just imagine Karen sobbing in relief, Sanders smiling and Eledore writing a song about it lol. I am glad for Heather's insight into some of the story/backstory that isn't explained super clearly in text. Frustratingly, Wikipedia and Gundam Wiki are both extremely short on details about the episodes of this show - sometimes reading the wiki after watching something helps me learn things I didn't pick up on during my watch! Well, all in all, I enjoyed 08th MS Team, I really enjoyed watching it with my husband - and now I want to see if he'll be up for watching Witch from Mercury with me lol.

My roommate has been watching the deer anime and I can confirm that it is insane.

I just found this Fujimoto quote and ran here to show Matt. Dude is literally Denji: "Until age 24 or so, I lived with my girlfriend in a 15,000-yen apartment in Yamagata. The people around us were kind and would give us fruits and vegetables. So while we didn't have much, I think I had a well-balanced diet. "Even though we were poor, we had a pet Japanese rice fish. I found it dead one summer. I went to throw it into the trash like in Parasyte, but my girlfriend said she wanted me to bury it, so off I went to the park, alone. I tried to bury it under this big tree, but the ground was too hard, my hands got all dirty, and I had no hole to show for my effort. Out of options, I figured I would pretend I had buried the fish and left it lying there on top of the ground. As I watched it for a little while, ants found the body and began carrying it away. I'm not sure what came over me, but in the moment, love for that pet fish welled inside me for the first time. I brushed the ants away, and then I ate it. "The next day, I had an upset stomach. And when my girlfriend suggested it was something I'd eaten, I came up with some lie to cover up the fact that I'd eaten our pet fish. I've had people get mad at me many times throughout my life, and when I'm scared of that, the lies just spill out. Most of the time I get caught in them, but this time I didn't. "That brings us to now. The memory of lying to my girlfriend is far stronger than the guilt of eating our pet fish. Please allow me to confess my sin here."

Haven't listen to this so can anyone tell me if they've announced their next Anime series?
