My reaction to GQuuuuuuX introducing a UC-multiverse into its story:

Is there an alternate timeline where GQuuuuuuX gets double the number of episodes so they can actually develop the characters and plot properly?

(In all honestly it's a fun concept but this. story. needed. more. episodes.)

GQuuuuuuX rant

For the record, I'm still enjoying GQuuuuuuX, but I'm also getting frustrated by it. rant begin:

Gundam GQuuuuuuX only running for 12 short episodes is just not working out for me. There isn't enough time for them to develop the world and characters for the story they want to tell. The pacing of this show feels incredibly rushed. Both the political storyline and the character relationships are lacking in substance, and I've seen 0079 and Zeta so at least know most of the background lore. It might be even more lacking/confusing for a first-time Gundam viewer.

If they knew they were only going to get 12 episodes I think they should've done a more focused story with fewer characters and plot threads. E.g. War in the Pocket and 08th MS Team managed to do a lot despite their small episode counts. Watching GQuuuuuux feels like a highlight reel of a 25+ episode anime where we don't get to see the omitted episodes.

This is the same feeling I had watching the last 5 or so episodes of The Witch from Mercury. It felt like they were building up for a 48-50 episode epic but they rushed to conclude it in 24. I still liked it but man, it was kinda disappointing. I think I might be harsher on GQuuuuuuuX because this was a problem with the previous Gundam series, and now they're doing it again.

On a lighter note, as long as Comoli Harcourt is alive and well it's fine I guess.

I love Comoli Harcourt. Her facial expressions are the best

Today on historical reenactment/living history shenanigans:

Onnamusha-inspired layered armor for my Monster Hunter Wilds character.

Red/pink variations are more samurai-themed and the black/gold ones are ronin-themed. First image is currently my favorite and the one I'm using the most.

yeah ngl i found Shiiko's expression here pretty hot, especially knowing that she killed 100+ Zeon pilots during the war. That face tells me she had no remorse and possibly even enjoyed it (we love unhinged mecha pilots in this house).

If that's the case, it makes sense that she wouldn't be able to move on from the loss of her Mav or settle into a normal post-war life. So instead she becomes obsessed with wanting to fight and defeat Char's Gundam.
