Turn A Gundam's initial working title was "Ring of Gundam". It's borrowed from an unrealized Ideon project called "Ring of Ideon", which focused on a theme of restoration. In Ring of Gundam, "going in circles" was a running theme, i.e. like a ring.

Happy Pride!

Watch Ideon.

We've all concluded from the Zambot 3 stream that the Jin family displays symptoms of lead poisoning.

actually wait one more post. so the Kuntala stuff in greco is fucking insane and i myself am going insane thinking about it. Like, how did any of this work? Were Kuntala hunted? Was this just how society was or did people protest? How ingrained was it? DID MCDONALDS SERVE FUCKING PEOPLE FOOD IN TH-

decided to replay Mega Man 9 for the first time in years. this game's so fucking funny man.

Good morning and happy pride month!!

#サイドKOBE 満喫しちゃった! これは宝の山だね!

Jiron you absolute fucking dork i love you

something i really appreciate about Xabungle is how often women are driving the plot or saving the day. even the cabaret dancers get their moments to shine. nobody is left out. there are shows that struggle with giving women equal spotlight TODAY, never you mind the 80s.

the episode ending with Maria explaining that she still believes fighting isml wrong, but she accepts it as a necessity until the world becomes kinder, is such peak Tomino oh my god

can i get tortured first, Miss Gavlet? also can i hold your cat?

there is not a single character in this show i am not utterly delighted by, everyone's interactions are so fun and the characters feel wholly unique to this strange setting. Xabungle is so good

the culture of Zola being so deeply selfish makes Jiron's willingness to help others and commitment to egalitarianism, despite his own flaws, even more endearing than if this had been set on earth. he really is a massive anomaly in this world. i can see why Elchi and Rag latched on to him so readily

a really interesting character flaw that you dont see often in heroes is that Jiron is a massive fucking hypocrite. he's constantly invoking the three day law to skirt by consequences, but is himself motivated to violate that law and believes it to be fundamentally unfair. it gives him texture

I love her
