_It's Gundam with a Ghibli aesthetic._ Never thought of the two would actually come together.
I actually want Ghibli make a Gundam movie now
@@mgsxmike yes please
It even has a Ghibli theme. It's kinda like Nausicaa or Laputa when you think about it.
Rest In Peace Syd Mead.
You forgot to mention the bealtiful soundtrack made by none other than Yoko Kanno, one of the best the industry has to offer.
'Air Plant' has been my ringtone for as long as I've had a phone.
To this day, I still consider Tsuki no Mayu to be the best Gundam theme.
@@AegisKHAOS i love After All too
@@celsofidalgo874 You can't go wrong with a Donna Burke song. I had actually forgotten she sang for Turn A Gundam, but man this is perfect.
I am generally a poor sucker for almost any version of Moon. In other words, Moon, Moon 2, Moon Concert Version with Origa, Moon live version performed by Gabriela - er - Yoko kanno, Tsuki no Mayu, and She's So High.
@@AegisKHAOS You are totally right bro, Turn A Gundam brings the A Game, i dont know why dont more people appreciate it
Turns out that you can put a giant mech in your cottagecore and it will still be cottagecore
Oh man. You just put one of my favorite songs (This Must Be the Place) next to one of my favorite shows. I approve.
Listening to This Must Be The Place by Talking Heads gives me the same 'grandma's house in rural america' vibe that I also get from Fleetwood Mac and the Turn A Gundam OST, so I had a good reason to include it and the song fit in well with the timing of my voice over. Knowing that it resonated with you is like the icing on the cake, so thank you.
the only series where u can see one of the strongest things in the anime universe doing laundry
Thanks for mentioning Syd. I just finished reading a book on his art but it doesn't mention Turn A Gundam. It does mention Yamato 2520 though. It's good to know he worked on this one too.
i enjoy gundam turn A series and the best for me..n i going rewatch gundam turn A for 2020 and RIP Syd Mead the man who design the ms pass away on December 30, 2019
Loran is like the Anti-Mikazuki Augus (though I don't think they exist in the same Universe, but point still remains). Idealist and Optimist. He wants everyone to live and cherishes life. Mikazuki's life turned him indifferent to life, to the point of just shrugging off putting bullets in people like it is just another task to be done for the day. I rate both of the Gundam series very high on the list for the story, and recommend both because they are like polar opposites but still very much the same in many ways.
I love the use of the dark history so you can use this as a launch point to get into the franchise
This, kinda made me cry, in a good way, it kinda gave me hope for humanity with how you put it at the end, great video, and I'm gonna watch it.
I think Loran is more of a really tan person or a native american than "black". Although I don't know the official setting so I might be wrong on that.
I can't understand how loran looks "black". As you said he's just a tan skin guy.
Lol white hair, blue eyes, Mediterranean/hispanic skin.
"Hes black!"
And native American is black
He's really tan. The moon doesn't have the same UV shielding the earth has.
It's said there is an interview that he has Thai ancestry.
The fact that a westerner made the mechanical designs is pretty awesome.
When you look at his actual concept design for the Turn A, it looks a lot more like one of the Moonrace's SUMO mecha - which, given they once attached the Turn A's cockpit to one for a while, hints they are to the Turn A what the GM was to the RX-78. I love those tiny hinted bits of detail.
"yoshiyuki tomino is at best with long form episodic series"
which is why G-Reco felt rushed because Sunrise never truly understand him
@digduck and it was great
sunrise never cared about him, they just wants money and money
I think with Turn A we see a world that's beyond our own. As even though it looks like a 1920's earth people are more equal than ever. As in episode 1 Luran was hired as a driver due to his mechanical skill( he's more tan then black as he does live at a place with less UV shielding than earth). And we see men and women join militia groups to defend their home. But everything else is gold of what you said.
Exactly. Other than the fact we have the Moonrace and Earthrace looking at each other enviously, one being envious of having the Earth itself to live on, the other being envious of their advanced tech, the people otherwise were just living life without a care for things like gender or skin color. It was normal and not a big deal to be a chauffeur or a baker. And, well, given the seemingly simpler lifestyle and the fact he went from living in an artificial city to being surrounded by nature, it is no wonder Loran got excited as he did in the early episodes, yelling to the Moon at how wonderful living on Earth is.
The usage of Fleetwood Mac and Talking Heads is quite appropriate and tasteful.
Correction: Turn X is not a Gundam type mobile suit.
Loran, black? *doubt*
As a massive Turn A fan, thank you for making this video. I get where you're coming from with the nudity stuff, but from all the Gundam I've seen(which is all of it) when Tomino in particular uses nudity it's usually more symbolic of purity and innocence. Doesn't make it less weird but it's nice to know it's not just nudity for nudity's sake. The whole black driver thing is still kind of problematic even if I personally see it more as Loran getting promoted because he's skilled with machines like they say in the show but I feel like they could've given him a job like helping out Miashie's dad as a mechanic if that would've helped the plot.
This will be the series I dive into next.
Thanx for helping me solidify the decision.
I'm looking forward to it.
Turn A Gundam openings has the most sexiest drums i've ever heard throughout Gundam entirely.
Fun fact: the main villain has the the same japanese voice actor for Dio from jojo's bizarre adventure
I still have yet to finish the show, but it's easily my favorite in it's visuals. Turn A is best lead Gundam and I will fight anyone and everyone over this.
Great content ! Syd Mean graduated from Artcenter college of design! Great to have him as a senpai!
Really unique series that I loved watching from episodes 1 to 50. It's so good i ordered DVDs of it.
This Must Be The Place fits the vibe of Turn A Gundam perfectly
It wouldn't even sound out of place in the soundtrack
The tracklist was so goood
Didn't know Turn A had this vibe, love the mix between Little House on the Prairie and scifi tech. The design of the Gundam kinda has what you'd expect to see on a 60s scifi novel cover, it feels very American, I really dig it. I've just finished Unicorn, I'll check this out next, thanks !
Love your channel you deserve more attention, cant wait for more gundam vids and vids in general!
My first Gundam and I loved it!
I actually really loved Turn A, I start Gundam not so long ago (thx quarantine lol) because a friend harass me with it since years, I started with The origins and the originals trilogy and I quiet like the show...then I start Zeta....and I really pass a bad time, I liked almost no characters and I was afraid than all the Gundam series was like that...Then I take a show in random, It was Turn A...I absolutely love it, the diverse characters, the ost, even if the story have flaws it didn't piss me off like in Zeta. This show make me love Gundam, and is definitely in my fav show of all time (also I like the channel so +1 ;p )
Nice music choice
And this Gundam is so OP.
the Gundam anime with DIO
And kars
Conversely it shows that no matter how many times humanity resets itself it will always rush to find the means to destroy itself once more.
How is Loran black?
literally created by akiman at the same time as when he designed elena from street fighter 3
Is the background music of this video Gypsy by Fleetwood Mac instrumental version?
The White Doll is one of the most powerful Gundam Mobile Suits in the enitre franchise.
I mean the fact that the video started with fleetwood mac? you’ve convinced me
What is the mobile suit (and anime) in 3:03?
It'll be nice if you talk about gundam 00 or iron Blooded Orphans
You sold me.
someone told me this show is bad, but as a religious and a pacifist person, I think I'll enjoy this show, I hate war, but I love peace, the old fashioned life and scifi, and I really like that loran tries his best not to kill his enemies, I'll be checking this out
I gave Turn A a shot and honestly, it just wasn't for me. It wasn't bad, but the slow pacing was almost painfully tedious and the pay off at the end was not worth it. Honestly I just found myself being really bored with Turn-A.
Frankly the best things about Turn-A for me were Harry Ord and the song "Moon's Cocoon". Personally I wasn't a fan of the mechs, though I suppose the Sumo is alright.
Again, I don't think Turn A is a bad series, I just don't think I'm the sort of mecha/gundam fan this show was made to appeal to.
I dont think the pacing is that bad but ok...
I was bored with Gundam X, wing and 0079,s first cour/movie
But Turn A is really fun
Darlan Dos Santos Oliveira Junior
If you liked the show, then more power to you. But I got to the halfway mark of the series and was like “Okay why am I still watching this?”. I did finish the series out of obligation, but Gym and the Turn X were not worth the wait. Pity since I adore Gym’s voice actor 😓
Honestly the only things I genuinely liked with Turn A were Harry Ord’s character, and that one song that played when Loran was digging in the mountains “Moon’s Cocoon”. And I suppose the Sumo is an alright design out of the bunch we got that weren’t just renamed UC units.
Interesting, because I never get bored with Turn A and I watch the whole series every few years. Maybe people want more actions? Maybe more sci-fi? Maybe age matters, because as I get older, the show gets even better. But still, it's nice to hear that you watched the entire series even if it was out of obligation. I feel that the show is being respected and I respect your opinion.
Maotaro N
I wouldn’t say it’s a matter of the age of the series, I grew up watching older anime like Ronin Warriors and OG Thundercats.
But I would probably say it’s the lack of anything significant happening. Like I can certainly appreciate that both sides were trying to keep the conflict between them from escalating. But I honestly didn’t really care about what was going on.
Like in the 8th MS team, I cared about the characters themselves and what was happening in the plot, I was invested.
Personally I really couldn’t get invested in what was happening or the on screen characters. Loran isn’t a terrible lead but I feel he’s far too naive and innocent, also I swear I kept expecting him to get on his knees and kiss Diana’s royal feet when they were together.
Speaking of Diana, I just really didn’t care for her or the other blond that looked exactly like her (for some reason). Honestly I kept losing track of which blond was which
Harry Ord was the only character I honestly liked cuz he was reasonable and a pretty cool guy. Honestly it was refreshing to have a char clone who wasn’t a total asshole.
But really the biggest issues for me boil down to the slow pacing and the lack of a really good central antagonist. I mean Gym exists, but he did very little and showed up far too late to matter if you ask me. Really he seemed more interested in fondling that katana he kept carrying around.
And finally, as I stated in an earlier comment, I really did not care for the mech designs we got here. Same with the music, one good song isn’t enough to save it for me.
I don’t know, maybe I have specific tastes, but this just really wasn’t the sort of show for me personally.
Honestly, your response is more than reasonable considering how different Turn A Gundam is even to this day. And we had G Gundam before that. :P It is a slower paced series, and the mechs in general are either retooled and/or recycled from past Gundam series, especially Zeon, or just very...unique? I generally like the series, but I knew just by looking at the Turn A it self this was not a series for everyone. At least not for those who are mecha fans anyways. Heck, I initially avoided it till I listened to the soundtrack and learned how potentially OP the Turn A actually was. My response is different from yours' after watching it, but I do totally understand where you're coming from.
Also, you got good taste in music for liking Tsuki no Mayu.
gundam cottage core
thank you for showing.... was looking for turn a gundam because it appears in another century's episode 3.
Is Fleetwood mac in the background?
Harry Ord is the absolute best Char clone. I think I actually like him more than the OG...
I love Loran
Uh....Loran isn't black. There are plenty of darker skinned ethnicities.
Came to say this. He’s a darker skinned person but kinda like Ged in Earthsea, he’s not “black.” I also don’t think it’s necessarily racially insensitive to show him being perfectly content with his job of transporting white people around, he just seems to generally be a congenial person who wants to help out.
Also crossdressing does not equate to “dressing in drag.” Drag is specifically about performance and breaking of social gender norms. Loran is crossdressing to pass as a woman and hide his identity, kinda like Cloud did in FF7
then the pokemon colosseum soundtrack at the end xD
Its good, but I'm more of an action gundam guy. It felt very slow to me. I just wanted a bunch of mecha fights to happen already.
TURN A TURN
I warched 20 episodes and was into it...for some odd reason i didnt continue...
The turn x is a gundam ? I though it wasn’t ? An the turn a was made as a result of the Discovery of the turn x .
What Gundam is that at 3:05?
How do I watch this show?
I thought Laren is a girl this whole time
Oooof
bruh me too
low key had a crush on him when I played dynasty warrior gundam
Better question is where to watch
Sadly it was never dubbed and I can't read fast enough to keep up and would miss too much.:(
U should have a 100k subs tbh, let us know when u get to 10k and the copper TH-cam trophy
oh sh*t i think i hit 10k when i wasn't paying attention... but since my channel covers so many different topics and videos can get buried a little too easily on people's subscription feeds, I doubt most of my subscribers end up watching my videos as soon as they come out and I don't see it as that big of a celebration.
At this point seeing an individual video get a lot of views honestly means more to me than getting a lot of subscribers who may or may not actually watch what I post, but that's just how I feel.
Where can I find a way to watch the show?
You can find about 50 episodes here on TH-cam
LOLOLOL.. Just saw this, I know I'm late to the party. Dude.. It's an Anime guy with dark skin and white hair. And you have to bring "race" into it? This was done way pre-BLM and all that Jazz. Roran Sehaku is a MOON race boy in an era (ostensibly) when we've left race baiting behind. Why can't we acheive that here and now? Turn A Gundam is quite possibly my favorite of all Anime simply because it focuses on content of character and completely ignores RACE.. moon or otherwise.
Talking heads 😳
Me watching people play Gundam revolution: THAT ONE...THE ONE WITH THE MUSTACHE....I WANNA LEARN ABOUT THAT ONE..play it too...
It felt like a sequel to Ideon
this series feels like Mega Man Legends
THE TURN A... IS REAL!
Wait wait wait. How can Turn A take place after every gundam series? Is it a breath of the wild thing where all roads lead to it? Or are they all the same time line and if so, fucking how?
you can see it as multiverse converging into one, super natural has always been connected in every major gundam series, every series starts at the same timelime in every parallel universe all of them will meet the same end point which is turn A or the correct century. It was not fully explained they just somehow woke up into the point where all gundam universe are already one
Reality for me and Mi6
The two 'twins' are not sisters, it's never metioned. They just happen to look alike
I just finished watching it. My opinion is odd when it comes to Gundam.
I think Turn A is better than Wing but not as good as Seed/Seed Destiny, 00, Orphan, Zeta, Victory or Unicorn and Thunderbolt.
I don’t like any of the Gunpla series. It’s hard for me to get into them knowing there just plastic models in an arena or cyberspace. Although they have some of the more imaginative Gundam where some border on super robot stuff.
Can someone please tell me the names of the cartoons shown in the sequences from 2:42 to 2:54?
The scenes are actually all from the same cartoon, a very cool show called "Over the Garden Wall". It has a very nostalgic/creepy atmosphere, some fun songs and one of the main characters is voiced by Elijah Wood. Hopefully this comment was somewhat helpful. :)
@@KaworuNagisa Thanks a lot!
I'm very picky over Gundam. I'm more likely to not watch a gundam series lol. I do HIGHLY enjoy Wing, MS Team and Iron Blooded Orphans. I saw a slick animation slip from Turn A and it caught my attention. I like attention to animation and that 90s grit/detail.
I might give Turn A a go... I'm a sucker for 90s anime.
But where can I watch it tho
It’s on youtube
@@bleekzaXXX link?
@@SomeD00D01 th-cam.com/play/PLGwndFajrq2ZCR2zbV9oNH7QjqThZQn60.html
I was confused when i saw the views on this video def deserves more views
Hate to be that guy but...
they're not robots.
Do not judge turn A mustache if your not a one piece fan
it's a good series IF you can get through the insufferable people especially people on earth. and a constant presence of the most annoying character in Gundam franchise, Sochie. dear god.
Too many spoilers
The “said most” powerful gundam 🤷🏻♂️
2:03 Turn X is not a Gundam
Actually it is considered a gundam unit weirdly enough look at its wiki.
@@barrybend7189 it s not called a Gundam so it doesn't count
I hate to say it, but I will NEVER like to look of the Turn A Gundam. It's like the GINO of Gundams.
Thats not a black protagonist
He is
My girlfriend likes Ghibli. Is this a good show to watch together? What if siblings or parents came in JUST as the on screen nudity happens?
It's relaxing, yes ..... but this is a war conflict anime,
not a slice of life. This is the main reason I don't like Turn A.
Since when gundam turn into slice of life
Turn A, being the most powerful gundam of all, is used as everyday labor machine. That's what makes the show unique and charming.
The quote Loran shouted out when he nuked the meteorite, "If you have been made by men, then be used to protect men!" is literally this whole show in a nutshell.
Sure, turn a gundam is still a mecha anime, and if you want conflicts, that's fine. But there are reasons for considering turn a an anime masterpiece, and I do hope you understand.
@@user-ge8np2iy4g I respect people who like it, but I refuse to call it a masterpiece. While in a war situation: the pilot prefers to hang clothes or move animals, half plot occurs for the convenience that Diana and the other are exactly the same, the final villains Gym and Agrippa are extremely one-dimensional, the main romances poorly developed, the dumb and meaningless ending, etc.
@@pieroae2599 I don't agree with you at all.
First of all they are not in a real war situation at first, if anything it's more like a cold war situation where the leadership from both sides wanted to re-open the negotiation table (with a small skirmish happening hear and there due to insubordination from both sides.) So of course, people who aren't really part of the millitary like Loran will be acting on his own accord.
Secondly, of course anything in the plot will occurs for the sake of moving plot along snd for the convenience of the characters (which is happen all the time in this kind of medium,) the things that make a different is how better they are at hiding it and how good they are at woven those excuse into the narrative, and I think Turn A did it pretty well.
Thirdly, the final villians of the show is not even Agrippa or Gym, while both of them are an obstacle that embodies an antagonist thematical meaning in the second half. At the grand scope of things, they are just a pawn. (Honestly, I think the main and final villian is Guin, and I think for the most part Turn A did him good enough.)
Fourth, they are no "main romances" in this anime and I don't really know where did you even get this idea from, did you talking Loran and Sochie? Because if so, then you are very wrong considering that there is no romance between them (it's only a one sided love on Sochie part.)
Lastly, how could that ending even be pointless when taking the whole narrative into account? If anything I would call it cathartic.
4:11 racially insensitive my ass, this is supposed to be 1000 years in the future. Black people in this time have no history of oppression here and really don't think anyone here remembers ancient history.
Hell 1000 years ago in our history the Romans ran the most extensive slave network in the world. White slaves from Britain (specially ones with blonde hair and blue eyes) were prized in Italy.
This goes to show that no amount of forced diversity in a show is enough and racist left wing activists will always find something to complain about until they have complete control.
Turn A gundam barely had any action in it. Compared the other shows, it was fairly tame. Too tame 😒
yeah, that's why it's more atmospheric and relaxing
It's not really an action show.
@@SeekerLancer Man, it's a war conflict anime, it MUST have action, otherwise it would be just stupid.
@@pieroae2599 Wait, you do know that there are many ways to portray a war conflict right? (Action is just one of them.)
I'd watch it, if Loran Cehack didn't look so damn cringy as a guy who legit looks like a woman. I bet the story is good, but I have my limits.
It wasn't that great a Gundam series.
The protagonist looks like a girl. That's ok in other anime, but not Gundam.
Why should Gundam require a more gendered protagonist when you don't hold that standard to other anime series?
@@cassiebelmont993 Cause you can't take it seriously. Gundam wasn't about pretty faces, but about science. Move along, donkey.
It's safe to say Gundam has degrees of fantasy and science fiction due to the magic powers of Newtypes.
@@cassiebelmont993 That part is about evolution, which again, is a part of science. It began during a discussion being had at the time Gundam was being created, where several leading scientists were discussing the next stage of human evolution. Even today, there is still a lot of speculation as to what that means. Tomino's idea mimicks the concept of homo deus, which is a concept used by some scientists to elevate mankind into a higher state of being. Both in terms of processing ideas, but learning as well. Tomino actually explores that. At least to some degree.
While that idea is not popular (just like in Gundam's theory of newtypes (watch Origins)), and hasn't been accepted by people as a whole (again, just like in Gundam), it still forms a part of the science that revolves Gundam.
Both 0080 and 0083 expressed why non-newtypes were incapable of handling gundams effectively. While 0079 and Zeta Gundam (0087) explained in detail why a new mankind was needed to use the new machine. They were simply better able to handle it, while the others were not. The whole part about sensing and psychic powers are both a part of the homo deus theory. The thing that diverges between the real world idea and the newtype idea is that in Gundam, evolution comes naturally. While today, people are only interested in artificial evolution or forced evolution. The general idea is still same.
Take your homophobia and shove it.
Why you should NOT watch this pile of crap:
-Character all act like they have mental issues.
-Characters are more often than not plain BAD. As in written by a 3 years old bad. And that is besides how they act.
-Trough the whole series, you cannot shake the feeling that EVERYONE is wrong. Wonky. Civilians don't react normally to 30 meter tall robots trashing the city ( in a world where no one has EVER seen one). Military people charge giant metallic tanks monsters with jeeps, peashooter and bayonets. Everyone is a bit too stupid to be "human".
It's like it's written by an alien.
Good Gundam, HORRIBLE serie.
The thing with Tomino, he is great at worldbuilding and have plenty of creative ideas. But man, his plot's, dialogue and especially characters have always been his weakest forte.
@@matteste That is the rub. I can get someone excels in a field, in a manner where he really shines.
However, it's no excuse to fail miserably in the others.
The idea, the world-building of this serie, is GREAT.
The execution is pitiful. It's like ordering a pizza, where the tomato is amazing and the rest is shit. LITERAL shit.
End of the day, it's a dish you are better served throwing away.
@@maxlopolo2415 Indeed. To me, his works is less about which is the greatest and more along the lines of "which one is weighted down less by his problems".
I mean, some things he have put out have all the elements present but are downright unwatchable like G-Reco for instance.
Sorry, I don't quite get what you guys are talking about. Can you guys provide an example or be more specific about this? I can't seem to recall which one are you talking about.
For instance.
"Character all act like they have mental issues."
I can name quite a number of them that act according to their initial environment and setting (while also developed accordingly to their new environment,) and although I can see some of them that do act like they have a mental issues it's usually because they are indeed *have a mental issues* (or implied to have.)
"Civilians don't react normally to 30 meter tall robots trashing the city"
What do you mean exactly? When the moon race attack the city in episode 11 almost all of the civilians flee in terror.
"Military people charge giant metallic tanks monsters with jeeps, peashooter and bayonets."
That is only happen in the first few episodes, beyond that point the military make use of an old mobile suits and relies heavily on ambush and guerilla tactics and the instance of "charge giant metallic tanks monsters with jeeps, peashooter and bayonets" is never happen again.
@@kman2384 Turn A is kind of blatantly referencing War of the Worlds with the whole using Victorian era technology to fight mecha from space and I think it's great.
I get why some people might not enjoy Turn A, especially if they're looking for an action show, but that guy's criticisms are kind of rude.
