| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- G Gundam has some of the most racist and stereotypical characters and Gundams I have ever seen, but it doesn’t look like any of it is done maliciously so it just turns out to be funny. It was nice to see Neo Mexico’s fighter have a somewhat happy ending. |
| I thought they said there were only China, France, USA and Russia besides Japan in the last few episodes. But now we know this Mexico guy. Well, at least it was a nice episode. A sad story, but with a somewhat happy ending. |
| The stereotypes are so over the top that one doesn't really get offended. I mean a Gundam with a Sombrero?! |
| "Perhaps there is a universal, absolute truth. Perhaps it justifies every question. But that's beyond the reach of these small hands." Mamoru Oshii There is a cult of ignorance (...) nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that “my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.” Isaac Asimov |
| I wouldn't consider any of G Gundam's "stereotypes" to be racist at all, as racism seeks to prove that some groups of people are either superior or inferior. Everything has been a caricature and utterly hilarious. Neo Canada next, according to the preview at the end! Preparing myself for the ridiculous lumberjacks now. I really do love this show. |
 |
| Sad story this episode. Isn't Earth supposed to be a wasteland? How many of the colony people are actually trying to get to Earth? I thought it was the other way around |
 |
| Wow, the Neo-Mexico colony is a sombrero. With cacti on it. That alone is too hilarious to be racist, let alone the Spike Gundam having a sombrero. This was a decent episode overall. |
| Tequilla Gundam like a mariachi ? It's hilarious ! |
| Every country is getting a national themed Gundam while Italy only got a random robot piloted by some punk. Where's the pizza Gundam! |
