    Y'know... This makes me REALLY wanna see a sequel split what-if future timeline story following the events of Beltorchika's Children bc, holy crap... Amuro's unborn kid, and the power of kids in general... the future... that whole message, and the fact that it was more about Amuro legit wanting and trying to move on hit me much better than the movie ever did...
    Like, I get he and Lalah had this connection, and it IS still there in BC, but... him wanting to actually start a family hit more... and I think Beltorchika coming to terms with being pregnant and her fears of parenthood were... a good way to finish off her character arc in a way that redeemed her Zeta wound licking bs...
    ...What could've been.... What could've been...

    The Gaia Gear Alpha is an honorary Gundam in my opinion.

    One thing I thought if Gaia Gear gets animated. What if Metatron refitted and rebuilt older UC MS but to Man Machine specs. Imagine a refitted Zeta Gundam but with minovsky flight tech and beam shields added. Also the only thing shared between Lala and Everly is that they are south Asian. Lala is indian while Everly is either Indonesian or Philippino. But the comparison is done for laughs with Afranche Char comenting on his predecessor's taste in women.

      Lol that’s one way to look at it, but I recommend that you continue watching, as there is a very important meta-contextual reason why Everly looks the way she does. Part 10

    I came after watching the first part of your Gundam Sentinel work, congratulations on the implementing of your battle grid, it was truly essential for a 3 times more complete image of the battlefield, also thank you for this funny and detailed essay, I'll continue from here on.

    I’m glad someone is doing a full analysis on Gaia Gear and how it speaks more generally to the ethos of Tomino’s other Gundam works.
    Reading the current fan translation of Tomino’s Hathaway Flash novels, I envisioned that and Gaia Gear forming a sort of duology. The man who wasn’t Char but became him vs the man who was Char but became someone else, though I’m speaking purely from cultural osmosis and summaries surrounding Gaia Gear really. I’m an EOP, so I have to wait on the fan TL for that as well (I decided not to consume via the audio drama, since I prefer reading Tomino’s novels to anything not his own TV anime).
    Amazing content, lovely to see actual Gundam analysis beyond the usual suspects.

    If Hathway could be made canon to the main UC timeline, then so can both Sentinel and Gaia Gear!

    • @barrybend7189

      Sentinel is canon. Gaia Gear at least needs to be made canon and given non P Bandai kits.

    • @pilotamurorei

      Sentinel has always been canon, and HF has been since Bandai decided to start milking it in Video games back from G Generation F.
      Also, That HF movie is NOT canon, fuck that brownwashed Kenneth Slegg. Kenneth is an ARYAN with blonde hair and blue eyes. This is SPECIFICALLY written in the novel.

    I've always been aware of Gaia Gear since around 2012 but have never been able to track down much on or about it and have always been very curious so thanks a million this is greatly appreciated. I look forward to the next video and intend to tell others of your channel. Again thank you.

    In the Victory Gundam Manga, all of the Newtypes were loaded in the Space Colony and went somewhere far away in deep space. Led by Grey Stokes

    • @GaiaGaiyus
      @GaiaGaiyus  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Actually that’s not entirely true. A large group of newtypes departed the earth sphere on the Dandelion Expedition; however the Victory Gundam: Project Exodus manga takes place during the events of the second half of the victory anime. Where with the world of the UC as it stands at that point; there are still a large quantity of newtypes still scattered about. By the time of Gaia Gear; ever since the dandelion voyage, newtypes have managed to slip away and back into myth. Leaving Gaia Gear to tell the story of how it is the world of UC has treated their disappearance after 50 years. After 50 years since the events of victory, the people of the earth sphere see the newtypes and philosophy attached to it as more of an old legend… but they’re not entirely extinct.

    The first time I came across Gaia Gear was in late 1989 with an issue of September '89 Newtype Magazine. The awesome artwork and apparent story (obviously a story, but I could and cannot read Japanese) got me instantly hooked. I immediately grabbed whatever Newtype magazine came into the comic shop from that point on. I know there was a radio play collection put together sometime in 1992 and in 1991, a company called BuildUp made a few limited 1/220 scale Gaia Gear kits.

    so the federation knew about Char being cloned and didn’t think about cloning Amuro as s countermeasure

      He's actually what the Spacenoids deserve. Char's memories and capability with Amuro's compassion and perspective on Earth. Shame it's tragically ignored by everyone in that time. Though if Gaia Gear and G Savior get refined versions of their respective stories it might be interesting to see both MM and MS working together.
