Also can we talk about this? I'm like 85% sure it activated on it's own. I know that psycommu units can operate via remote control, but machu didn't seem to be aware that it activated till it turned to look at the commotion

>>68315 The way she thanked the Qux makes me think she's going to develop a Shuji-like symbiosis with it

>>68315 >inb4 Challia has remote-control privileges and knew the location of G-Quacks and its pilot from the start

>>68315 There's definitely something up with the magic harddrive that they needed for the omega psycommu but they haven't really brought it up at all ever since that time Annqi was looking at it like she knew what it was

>>68285 I didn't expect things to go down the way they did, particularly when it comes to Machu and Nyaan. In a sense the Challia and the Zeon plot progress in a typical Gundam way. I wouldn't say it's a tranwreck yet, but the it does feel like the series needs more episodes to flesh out more its characters. >>68315 Unless properly explained later, the omega psycommu will feel like just a copy of how the unicorn behaved, and honestly it's really similar when it comes to translating thoughts to piloting.

>>68314 Yeah maybe we'll get a second cour, but yeah even just the whole parallel world(?) thing seems like too much to resolve in 5 eps. >>68315 Evangelion-esque "there's a soul in the robot" maybe? Spoiler for a big classic mecha anime. >>68444 This is a "typical gundam way"? What does that mean, like abbreviated and lots of things and characters at once I guess? Still, stuff like the white haired girl going crazy in the latest episode felt totally neutered for me since I barely got to know her at all. Lots of moments have been falling flat for me due to similar reasons.

>>54793 Lana's mom mom's anaL

>>68750 I thought he'd get shot dead or crushed by the robot, but seeing him just get vaporized was brutal.

I hope we get a sort of satisfactory conclusion to all of this, because 4 episodes left and the plot and characters keep piling up. >>68533 >like abbreviated and lots of things and characters at once I guess Yeah, this episode we even got more of the same, about Gihren developing cyber newtype clones.

>>68806 Yeah that went really hard (but was also kinda funny). >>68873 Yeah I liked seeing more delving into Nyaan's character (although we barely even got that much since she's barely verbal), but otherwise we got stuff like "oh this rando is a spy" "oh this rando is a traitor" I hope the writers didn't think these moments are landing on the viewers

>if I can go to the rose >then i'll be able to find shuji!! Do the writers really think anyone likes her character? Do kodomo in Japan even like her? Her character is literally SHUJI SHUJI SHUJI SHUJI SHUJI SHUJI SHUJI SHUJI SHUJI SHUJI SHUJI SHUJI SHUJI SHUJI SHUJI SHUJI SHUJI SHUJI SHUJI SHUJI SHUJI SHUJI SHUJI SHUJI it's crazy that veteran writers did this.

Is the 8chan.tv stream not happening? Subs have been out for an hour now.

>>69267 Do those usually happen as soon as subs drop? I should drop by sometime, haven't made it to it so far. I think if more anons knew a definite time it were airing more anons would show up.

>>69268 Insofar as my timezone is concerned, never no later then 12:30pm.

>>69269 I see... I still think whoever's running it should stick to a certain time so we can be sure to make it on time!!! 🤩

>>69269 Oh wait it says on the channel >Broadcasting new Gundam GQuuuuuuX episodes every Tuesday at 7pm EST.

>>69272 >EST So it was changed. Thank you. I swear it was much earlier until now but this cuts into my backlog of other mecha.

>>69273 🙏

Okay for real, did the streamer die?

>>69278 Oops it was supposed to have aired 1 hour ago, did it not happen?

>>69280 I had the tab open all day and heard nothing from it, so unless the stream came muted by default then no it did not happen.

>>69283 Damn. Well, I guess even the streamer has IRL stuff that can come up. Hopefully we'll see him next week. I'll try to join next week too now that I know this is a thing.

>that subtle blush Shinji just can't compete against BBC (Big Beautiful Challia)

>>69470 Damn, I would not have caught that if you hadn't pointed it out. Is this actually an anime targeted to teen girls? If so then why make the MC a fucking menhera? Who can relate to her?

>>69763 >Who can relate to her? I don't think it matters. She's fun to watch and that's good enough

So Nyaaan is confirmed Thai? >>69813 I didn't really find her fun to watch because I don't really care about inhuman feeling characters I guess. Stoic? Fine. Insane? Fine. But if they lack humanity it just feels like the writer is lazy.

What the fuck, rip bozo

Things are building up but I still can't get hyped. Here's an example of what I think is so wrong. The "words" in the story - the dialogue, are mostly all soulless. "We'll neutralize the Big Zams first, as per the operation plan." "We'll sneak in from behind bla bla bla" "Alert the Big Zams! It's a sneak attack!" All the text completely lacks the soul of the characters, it's just "thing is happening, thing is happening". It's impossible to get into a story when there are maybe 10 lines of dialogue per episode, if I'm being generous, that characterize the characters and most of them are just "SHUJIII FUCK MY PUSSY PLEASEEEE" It's a shame because the character designs and mech designs are cool, and the animation quality is high even if the direction is mediocre.

>>69886 This is some of the most retarded criticism I have ever heard. They're soldiers, they're supposed to be matter-of-fact

>>69890 I'm not criticizing the soldiers, I'm criticizing the shit writing. If someone were to write a story about mechanics that is entirely the following, I'd also say the writing was shit. Joe: Alright, Mike, I pulled the codes. Got P0302 and P0171. Cylinder 2 misfire and lean condition on bank 1. You see anything obvious yet? Mike: grunts, leaning over the intake manifold Not yet. I’m checking the vacuum lines first. That P0171 could be a leak somewhere. You got the scan tool hooked up still? Joe: Yeah, live data’s running. MAP sensor’s reading 32 kPa at idle, which seems off. Should be closer to 40, right? I’m thinking maybe a clogged injector or bad coil on cylinder 2. Mike: wipes hands on a rag Could be. Let’s swap the coil pack from 2 to 4 and see if the misfire follows. You got a 10mm socket handy? Mine’s buried somewhere. Joe: rummages through toolbox Yeah, here. I’m also seeing the short-term fuel trim’s at +18%. That’s screaming lean. You think it’s worth pulling the MAF sensor and cleaning it? Mike: unscrewing coil pack Maybe, but MAF usually throws a different code. I’d bet on a vacuum leak or a bad PCV valve before that. This truck’s got 80k miles, right? PCV’s probably never been touched.

HOLY ENTERRRR!!!! So Shuuji was originally from the other world? Is Char from this world or the other one...? This one, right? And Sharon is from the other world and she's in the machine because uh... someone explain! Do you think this series is ending with just one cour? Last episode next week.

I won't livewatch the next episode in hopes they actually do something good to finish the series, and I get to see something satisfying for a change, but I'm not holding my breath for it. The second half of the anime has been bad, I'll finish it and maybe rewatch it in winter, maybe it's better if binged.

It was shit, what a surprise. Now the only thing remaining is to see if the supposed movie will really come out, though I'd expect it to be just heavily edited episodes again like the first one.

So...This was just Rebuild of Evangelion with Gundam elements, wasn't it? With maybe some references to Gunbuster and Gurren Laganm? Was that Amuro's ghost hands in the GQuuuuuuX, meaning his soul is in the Gundam this time?
