White Devil encounter event.

I always loved when games do this. Amuro on grunts/lesser aces' POV is entirely on a different level.

Sana's unimpressed face in ep 3, the fact that she chooses a machine that isn't feminine at all, and her reaction toward mask guy's backstory makes her among my favorite female MC in Gundam :rofl:

I presume Spartacus is talking about "Gundam Breaker Battlogue" the web-series anime that's currently airing.

This villain is painful.

Pretty much everyone's reaction to him really...a petty and cringe worthy loser.

In game, she's actually the only one so far who consistently makes new custom gunplas for herself & not just overhauls of her original or whatnot. She did make one pink rabbit Kapool but has used several more like a custom F91 called Gundam Valkyrie.

Gundam Breaker Battlogue Episode 4:Besides the outfit, the guy isn't even trying to hide who he is. He just outright wants revenge against the guy who beat him, but he's taking it out on everyone else. His Gundam Barbatauros is pretty cool though, it even has a tail just like the Lupus Rex. And now they're going fight against Ai's based on ace pilots.

There were struggling at the beginning, but they managed to beat those AI's with good teamwork.
And now the champion has finally appeared. If all he really wanted was a rematch, then he's got it.

To use the Dainsleif against them in that gunpla, he really didn't have any shame. I suppose all's well that ends well though. This was a pretty cool short series and I can't wait for the next one they make.

Goddamn. They went ham with the animation in this last episode, holy shit

While watching AMAIM and it's new obviously evil corporate mouthpiece, I started thinking. Why hasn't Anaheim Electronics been the villain in any Gundam series yet? For a series based on the evils of war, it's surprising that the war profiteers haven't been a primary antagonist. We've had facists, cults, racists, ecoterrorists, the entire military industrial complex, the illuminati and aliens. But never the "we started this war so both sides would pay us" angle.

**Spartacus** · November 28th, 2021, 01:23 AM

I guess Unicorn is the closest to having that.

**bassgs435** · November 28th, 2021, 07:52 AM

It's not Gundam, but Tomino worked in L-Gaim and it was like that. The war profitteer was actually the emperor who had brainwashed a woman into acting as emperess in his place, while he just went selling weapons to both the empire and rebels and kept an statius quo that allowed him max profit

It did feel like they might have wanted to go in that direction with the old F90 manga which explains that the Earth Federation created the "Strategic Naval Research Institute" (SNRI) organisation to make the Mobile Suits for them internally without having to outsource to Anaheim who then go on to create their own shadow series of Mobile Suits from data that was stolen from the SNRI.

But then Victory Gundam kinda nixed that by having the SNRI group instead go rogue and join the Zanscare Empire whilst Anaheim ended up once again backing the protagonists.
