I was kinda worried I wouldn't be part of the specific audience this gundam's going for after ep 1 & 2, but after ep 3 & 4 you can see it steadily getting closer of the tone of the prologue.

Can't expect it to go full ham and be like it right away tho' since that was legit throwing us into an intense conflict. Other gundams did it ofc, but G-witch may be a more gundam-lite.

I'm just glad I saw racial & social class tensions explode a bit this ep , both on a macro scale with the working class earthlings vs government & on a macro scale with twin-afro -chan going CHU-CHU MOTHERFUCKER on that bully, and last ep we saw Guel treated as more than a typical smug cartoonish antagonist.



Hope to see more of Chu-Chu, but ngl, Miorine hasn't managed to hook me at all yet - doing her best to be dislikeable by being hostile to everyone around her + the seemingly possessive & controlling attitude she's having towards Suletta. Thx to that, I found myself grinning when that prince dude told her he's not interested one bit in her and seeing her reaction, lol.

We need to talk about this...


I can probably help with this a little as someone who literally JUST had to mess with my afro before hopping online. So afros are KINDA like cotton candy. They're big and poofy, but you can compress all of that hair A LOT-- a big stick of cotton candy becomes a little pile of clumpy sugar if you wet it. Like you can easily turn an afro into cornrows which are super compressed. Or even if you're not compressing them in that way, something like a wig cap and make it go all the way down to the scalp relatively easily-- or else I wouldn't be able to put on my cosplay wigs. It's very easy for an afro to shrink. Unless you're spritzing/mistng it with water or something and picking it out throughout the day then it will inevitably shrink and lose shape. This is why people used to walk around with afro picks in their hair back in the day: to maintain the afro's shape and size. An afro her size and shape is actually hard to maintain. She'd probably have to pick it out every hour or so or else it just naturally shrinks.

That being said, Chuchu doesn't SEEM to have the best fro maintenance. Maybe we just don't see her picking out her fro throughout the day so I won't get on that, but she should be putting her fro in a more protective style like braids or twists before bed or else she'll likely end up with a head of really tangled hair most of the time. Not a good idea to just put it in a bonnet and call it a day.

TL; DR: Afros naturally shrink because an afro is actually a high maintenance hairstyle that needs to be picked out frequently and tediously throughout the day to maintain its shape. Shrinking it down to the head is easy because that is its natural state pretty much.

I didn't expect a well thought out response to this, that's cool to know, thanks.

Yes. Its a pretty good show so far, and prologue set expectations high for the story in future episodes. Easily one of the best shows of this season.

I like seeing the seeds of the wider story continue to be spread, and the large cast starting to come together is nice. Suletta is still unnecessarily annoying.

Guel tsundere vibes.
Imagine being looked down upon based on where you were born. Geez these animes and their wild imaginations.
I love Suletta’s seiyuu’s (Ichinose Kana)performance.
Chuchu is all thorns on the outside but soft and caring on the inside?
Another great ep.

Problem here is you are using the limitation of 2022 technology and knowledge as a base of your arugment in the show set far into the future where going out in space is easy thing.


Problem here is that you assume the Sun doesn't get hotter the closer you get to it. So technology should be so advanced that Suletta's Gundam should be completely IMMUNE to Laser weaponry, because it would be designed to survive THE HEAT OF THE SUN.

So if you want to say "just advanced technology", then You also need to look at both sides of that coin: Advances in technology to survive being Mercury-Close to the Sun will also apply to Gundams...

Unless you are saying that Lasers are now hotter than the Sun... Then you need a power source that could handle it, and that would be massive.


Guess what? Venus is actually much hotter than Mercury, since it has a hell lot of CO2 that traps heat in its atmosphere.

Also fyi, the polar regions of Mercury are constantly below −93 °C (minus 93 degrees Celsius)

Ooooh finally some police brutality. Even if it's a small part in 4 episodes, there's a glimpse of Gundam right there.
Also, the punches were really nice.
Finally a small move from the utter cringe this show has been.
Best series of all time? Gormiti of course

YEEEEAHHHHH! Chuchu episode! I've been waiting for this since she showed up. My best girl senses have been tingling for awhile and she finally proved with that brutal beatdown on those bigoted bitches.

Was really neat seeing what earth was like, usually in Gundam its Earth oppressing space colonist, interesting seeing a reversal for once.

Liked seeing a bit more of Suletta's motivations too, and just how supportive Miorine is even if she's not obvious about it.

Finally, she now has friends......

But I still don't like her lesbian relationship with that white head.

I can't remember where but I had accidentally saw Chu's punch before I had even started the show. It was JUST as satisfying seeing it here. Loved it! Besides that, really enjoying the show so far. Already got the ED on my playlist.... the song is so good. Now, the weekly wait begins.

Guel really doesn't make himself more believable, bringing out the standard tsundere line... :D

The way the protesters were painted out to be the cause of violence really reminded me of the opening of XCOM 2...

In a way the Jeturk brothers remind me a bit of the Frosts from Gundam X.

And looks like Suletta has now actually managed to call someone by their nickname, even if she doesn't quite realize if yet herself. (And she should also ask them whether her fiancee could join that House as well. *nods*)

Like most other Gundam anime, the Gundam mechanic Nika is very likeable. Probably the most likeable Gundam mechanic after Kid Salsamille from After War Gundam X.


I see your Kid, and I raise by the best character of Gundam AGE, Remi Ruth.

I just...how the fuck is this school even real? Students can just fuck with equipments provided for the sake of exams and they don't get any punishment for it. It's the wild wildd west out here but also we have rules that have to be honered and exams and passes and fails. We're legit, but also we allow any bullshit to happen. 2 students openly laughing about how their plan to sabotage other students exam is not noted by anyone even though there are flying cameras and ChuChu could spot them easily. And don't give me the "Oh they're spacians so they can bend the rules bro" bullshit. They tarrgeted Suletta, who's not an earthian and still looked like nobody working in this schools gave a fuck. Anyone can see from miles away that black paint on the machine blocking Suletta's view but again, nobody gives a fuck.

We're not gonna tell our new student about the requirements for the exam and just fail her. amazing 10/10 education right here folks.

You can just repeat the exam over and over and over, and you hold others in line? what if someone just decided to delay the entire day?

There are no private transmissions in this school I guess, Suletta and Miorine's conversation can be heard by others just for the sole purpose of delivering Suletta's motivation to Chuchu so she cahnges her mind about her. Fuck coming up with conversations, she just hears them.

This whole episode was just to get Suletta on the Earth team and it couldn't be any clunckier.

Suletta is still experiencing hostility around her Earthian acquaintances due to being a spacenoid, but they're warming up to her a little bit.

When Chuchu haymakered that snobby girl in the face, I was certainly surprised. Chuchu is really tough, and those girls deserved to be punched.
