Also every moment Chara Soon is on screen I take a tick of poison damage. #gundam #gundamzz
It's so funny that I already put Haman Karn in my top 10 characters of all anime/manga even though I haven't watched Gundam ZZ, it's just based on her presence in Zeta Gundam.
She's great.
Eps 20 & 21 were actually sorta good! It’s a shame Cecilia was so unlikable: she missed the mark as a tragic character because it was impossible to feel much sympathy for her. Unfortunately she’s a woman and this is a Tomino show.
Thinking about Gundam ZZ, I remembered Mark Simmons had compiled this huge production history for it a while ago:
https://www.ultimatemark.com/gundam/production/gundamzz.html
15 episodes in: I don’t hate it (at least it’s not a total drag like Zeta) but even Hanna-Barbera would’ve said this one needed a bit longer in the oven. Absolutely everything feels thrown together at the last minute. It’s a total mess.
Tomino also seems to have been pretty horny while writing it, hence we have characters like Chara Soon, whose primary trait is that she has an erotic episode every time she uses a mobile suit.
There's a kid in Judau's school named Garma. Was he named in honor of Garma Zabi or is Garma a common name in the Universal Century?
