    Yeah, thunderbolt is not like your typical mecha anime where two dudes are screaming at each other, it's just one dude screaming in sheer horror while being vaporized by a beam saber and jazz music playing while all of that is happening.

    What strikes me the most about thunderbolt is how realistically it treats death in combat. No sad flashback montage. No tearful goodbyes. No time to mourn. One second your buddy was there and now he’s just mist, and you don’t have time to think about it because you’ve gotta get on the ball and shoot back or else you’ll be next.

    This is one of those Gundam shows that absolutely nails both 'Cool Robot' and 'War is hell and it'll either kill you or turn you into a monster or broken mess.' The Jazz is smooth and effective, conveying a sense of tension during the fights and I both sort of root for Lo Fleming but also HATE HIM whereas I have nothing but love for Daryl and Doctor Mitchem because GOD they deserve so much better! (I honestly did not expect to cry as I had during the first flashback for Daryl but there ya go) Even seeing Daryl go into the same state of 'LOVING war' as Lo does when he had sortied. Seeing the Child Soldier thing is grim but also even nails down a point even mentioned in episode 1 of MSG: The casualties were such that literal CHILDREN were being sent out there to die.

    Spoiler: If you read the manga at this point in time the story is far ahead and adds little extra bits than whats shown so far in the animation.
    Example: The Zeon suicide bombers which before shows who both those pilots are and how they were selected for the operation. They got the short end of the stick by officers.
    Also the manga shows different weapons for the Atlas gundam and "other" pyscho Zaku's. Plus the story gets really dark for the behind the scenes manipulations and betrayals that befall characters.

      back in 2019 one of the producers explained why:
      "I can say is that part of the reason you haven’t seen more Thunderbolt is that we’re waiting for more of the original manga story to be developed. We would like to do more Thunderbolt but we don’t want to do it without having more material. Part of the problem is the creator is experiencing tendinitis. When we have more of the manga, we hope to announce more about Thunderbolt."

  • @MechaEmperor7000
    @MechaEmperor7000 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love the series but it has two major problems.
    One, The series is essentially divided down the middle between the "Thunderbolt Sector" arc and "Operation Thunderbolt" arc, which felt like it could have been two different stories but were shoehorned into each other because they wanted the same character in two different stories.
    Two, the ONA is done dirty by this because while Season 1 and the Compilation December Sky is a fairly well self-contained narrative, Season 2 and it's compilation movie feels more like an hour-long advertisement for the manga, which means we get a lot of questions, none of it answered, and a bunch of characters that come out of nowhere (cuz the portion of the manga it adapts is literally setting up Operation Thunderbolt).

    • @WeHeartGiantRobots

      The big issue they ran into was that the Thunderbolt manga went on hiatus due to an injury in his dominant hand. He's back at it again, though, so I guess we just gotta cross our fingers and hope Sunrise feels like re-visiting it once Hathaway gets his OVA.

    that's how Io Fleming went with "when you hear the jazz, I'm coming"-thing going. 🤣 you can prove this when the footage was reviewed over the Zeon's mission brief and somebody said "it's jazz". 😅😅🤣

    I think the Io/Bianca shipping was a little too perfect. Liek she's clearly the female version of him. Shes an Io clone (not Dio Clone) so I consider her a bit cringy. I'd rather her be uninterested. I think the shortness of the narrative makes it seemed a bit forced. its just my opinion tho.

It's an interesting thing to talk about considering it's the entry that catapulted the Gundam series to fame in the states, but is utter crap among the other standouts. But, a good analysis such as the quality of the mech fights, the animation, all that....i think it'd make for a worthwhile episode honestly.

      😂😂 thats interesting I like Metallica especially when I was a kid but they are all such trash musicians compared to the best jazz groups. You want to see some of the most balls to the wall drum solos you ever heard listen to Buddy Rich, the craziest, fastest guitar solos Allan Holdsworth, the nastiest bass lines NHOP. The best jazz guys are in a league of their own in what theyre doing. Metallica is a good band though with some great albums and great songs, jazz is just a different animal man, I get not liking it but you gotta respect the total mastery of the instruments that jazz legends possess
