Gundam Unicorn – 04: Bright Noa Strikes Back

The Federation may not be winning every down but they always put together a good finish.

Yes this post is late but to be honest Skyrim ate up my life and after nine years of no playoffs my 49ers are finally turning things around unlike Zeon. I’ll forego the usual angry rant since Zeon Remnants did behave particularly dumb when Full Frontal played them like suckers. In fact I was laughing most for most of Unicorn 4. For those of you who dearly want to see Zeon win I got news for you they lose again and I’ll be honest with you no matter what they will always lose. Zeon is like the Dallas Cowboys of mecha, you are all fools for still believing, your faction is really overrated, and you have no championship gold to point to in the last decade. You call yourselves the Otaku’s Team when in fact you are the Hikkomori’s Team. This time around it was like a litany of failure, and whatever progress you made while impressive for you did not equate to a win on any level.

Where to begin on this pile of shit that came out for Zeon…  I’ll start with Zeon losing Mineva to Riddhe because this sets up so much fun and not just a simple shipping war. In fact Riddhe made off like a bandit today, Zeon got bamboozled, hoodwinked. While it is common knowledge that Mineva is too good for Banagher, Riddhe is laying it on thick, hugging her, asking her to marry him, asking to stay by her side, airing out all his dirty family laundry. I really want to see Riddhe win the Mineva sweepstakes, because let’s face it given this episode Mineva isn’t going to find a loyal Zeke to marry, and Banagher seems to like fooling around with Marida and now Loni. Still Banagher has yet to, as Laker formerly known as Ron Artest would say, lay the pipe on Marida and will never lay the pipe Loni. I must really congratulate Riddhe not only is he making off with the Best Girl, he fucking cock blocked in EPIC fashion. He’s like pulling a Kamille on Banagher in that he’s killing off the latter’s girlfriends. I just wonder who is going to have more memorable losses Banagher or Jerid.

Riddhe isn’t just aiming to win the Mineva sweepstakes he just got the chance to work under Bright Noa for the rest of the series. I am sure Bright Noa will be haunting the dreams of many a Zeke from now on because hasn’t lost in… like ever. So this Full Frontal fellow has like no chance of winning, because if Real Char couldn’t do it then that fat over weight clone isn’t going to get it done either. You can quote me on this Zeon will not win because Bright Noa is going to Strike Back and it was to be a Hoth class rout.

Banagher wasn’t the biggest loser though an even bigger loser was Suberoa who got his ass kicked, balls kicked in, and got curb stomped by Banagher. Never mind how all this talk about war is bad is getting old and stale, it fucking comedy gold. I just wish it were a UFC fight and they had an octagon. I was rolling because really how could Suberoa lose so badly? He had the gun, could won right then and there, had mass, and yet he was the one getting his face kicked in. To make it all the more humiliating Banagher took command and did whatever he wanted, and worse still Bright Noa was on the field and when you compare Suberoa to Bright Noa it’s not fucking contest. If it were Bright Noa he would have Bright Slapped Banagher and made him his bitch. Not Suberoa though he became Banagher’s bitch and as a result lost the episode.

Now I am sure how Zeon is going to put perfume on this shit performance, but since some of you Zekes were cheering for the Miami Heat I feel like rubbing it in. Yes you guys did bloody the Federation, but like LeBron James you stupid fucks couldn’t give a good fourth Quarter and Londo Bell not only go the comeback victory, the RX-160S Byarlant Custom fucking posterized 70% of the Zeon Remnants. It’s like Zeon likes getting garbage yards yes they might be the best Fantasy Football team but they can’t convert those into the one number that matters, one in the win column. It’s like a running theme under the Full Frontal Era they just waste troops and machines for no tangible gains other than “we made a statement”. There are no moral victories in professional sports just like there are no moral victories in war for the losing side.

For you Zekes that can’t make sense of what a military disaster this was I’ll break it down for you since you know I have actually been to the sandbox in an IRL War while you guys were fapping to Haman. Full Frontal suckered every Zeon Remnant guy into dying for nothing. Not only does Zeon not get to the location of the Box, they lose the Gundam Unicorn, and basically let the Federation eliminate most of the Zeon Guerillas left on Earth. Bad enough the dumb Zekes of the Zeon Remnant failed to set their alarm clocks for three Neo-Zeon Movements (Delaz, Haman, Char) they never even got the memo that Char was going to drop an asteroid on them and yet they still manage to get betrayed by a Char clone. So now the Feddies have not only destroyed most of the remaining Zeke Forces on Earth, Torrington held out, they got the Gundam Unicorn out of Zeke hands, and now the Zekes lose a good pair of teats in Loni. Sorry if you guys want more Ms. Loni you guys will have to head for the fan-arts and hope that Ms. Loni got a cult following.

I got a good laugh out of Ms. Loni after all that talk of alleged Feddie atrocities she goes to town and starts shooting the civilian population, in fact such was her hate that she killed a baby and took out a concert to spite Ranka. It’s one thing to allege atrocities its quite another to see them happening because this is the story of Zeon, nothing but allegations for the most part and then they keep doing the same dirty shit they do. It’s like they are a bunch of whiny entitled Laker fans, when it’s time to sleep in the bed they made they fucking leave in the third quarter to cry and get swept. Had Loni had the brains to do what she was supposed to then she might have saved her friends from the Byarlant ass kicking, she might have demolished Torrington base so that they would have something to show for it. Instead because Shamblo reminded Loni who her daddy was they don’t whack a single high ranking Feddie Official, Dakar is still standing, the Torrington isn’t overrun and Londo Bell gets to fatten up their stats along with that Bylarant Custom. In the end though Zeon loses most of their forces on Earth and they lose the Gundam Unicorn, while this makes for a great strategic and tactical victory for the Federation. It doesn’t matter how many suits the Zeon Remnant took out the Federation can make more and Feddie Citizens can have a good birth rate while Riddhe is culling the Zeke female population either by killing them or trying to marry the Best Girl. The Zeon Remnant was brought to battle and destroyed in detail and en masse sparing the Federation a massive operation to wipe them out scouring every inch of dirt and ocean. I always said that the Zekes couldn’t win a war and I am still quite right.

I really got a good laugh out of Kirks as well because he was no Captain Kirk and clearly wasn’t laying the pipe like Tribble. For a guy who wanted to badly to destroy a base to the point he was ready to over load his reactor before Londo Bell made a fool out of him, he was dumb as fuck. He could have just had someone over load when they were winning if that was the mission. He wasn’t going to win on his own Loni had pulled a Garcia and started dicking around with meaningless targets and the cavalry was bound to show up. Once they had a Londo Bell sighting Kirks would have been better off ordering them all to detonate in the hopes of taking out that Byarlant and maybe Bright Noa along with Ra Cailum. Essentially he got greedy and started mailing it in and for his trouble got a face full of Londo Bell and Byarlant. I laughed so hard during that suicide attempt it hurt. I just wished Kirks released some god awful album like Shatner did. Now that would have made it more of an atrocity than Loni shooting up the city for no good military reason.

Last on the Comedy of Errors is Marida, she just got royally screwed and I don’t mean that she had the pipe laid on her by some Zeke leader. No, Marida just got to Anaheim and boy have they been busy spending money, not only did they sign Albert Puljos to a 10 year 240 Million dollar deal, they made their own Gundam Unicorn and painted it black. Even better they get a free pilot to enslave and all they had to do was show Qubeley and bring up bubble bath time to destroy Marida’s fragile mind. Look out Zeon Anaheim is coming and Christmas came early for them. Also now that we get a better look at Marida it seems that they brother goers of Palau were into some freaky shit. I am pretty damn certain those aren’t love bites.

In all fariness I’ll hand you guys off a Zeke point of view in all this,

This is ludicrous, why don’t I as a Palau taxpayer tell Zeon to that I’ll pay them when they are good? I am not watching this experimental, laboratory, test tube crap. Don’t give me that “hey man this year is all about…” I don’t want to hear it. I am FRUSTRATED! I AM TIRED OF WATCHING CRAP. It’s been crap for years, it’s Groundhog Day and I am sick of it. I want to WIN and I am tired of people telling me that I have to watch this crap to get there. Can anybody turn Zeon around? Can anyone beat Bright Noa? Full Frontal you are a joke! Your roster and plans are a JOKE. There are groups all over mecha that are LAUGHING at you. FUCKING ZAFT IS LAUGHING AT YOU! FUCKING DR. HELL IS LAUGHING AT YOU! I don’t have to like it. Sorry ectholion, sorry GhostofDelaz, sorry Mike. CAN YOU HEAR THE FRUSTRATION IN MY VOICE?! I have had it, I am tired of sucking. I want you to know that Londo Bell and Bright Noa are laughing in your face today. The pilots in mecha all know who sucks and who doesn’t. Londo Bell’s pilots are salivating to fight the Zeon Remnants again. Riddhe is looking forward to killing another pair of Zeon teats to cock block Banagher next time. Londo Bell is going to fatten up their stats on the fucking Zeon Remnants. God I am sick of this crap. Don’t give me that “we are on our way crap.”  You guys want me to get excited? GET EXCITED FOLKS! LONI IS GOING GET KILLED TODAY! KIRKS IS GOING TO FUCK UP HIS SUICIDE TODAY! SUBEROA IS GOING TO GET HIS ASS KICKED TODAY! I AM GOING TO NEED A FUCKING BYPASS! BANAGHER IS GOING TO TALK ABOUT LOVE AND PEACE TODAY! GET EXCITED FOLKS! GET EXCITED!

I am insulted, how dare they call this mecha. You thought Delaz was worth following? You thought Haman was worth following? You thought Char was worth following? How the fuck did that work out? Delaz brings us the Titans, Haman ends up pining for FUCKING JUDAU, and Char chickens out in his escape pod while Amuro takes Char up and down the space lanes to tomhawk dunk Char onto Axis. We haven’t had a good new pilot since Anavel Gato, and we went from Gato to FUCKING GIVE FUCKING KIRKS A CHANCE?! Child please, you are an idiot. I am sorry, I can only put up with this for so long. I’ve just had eat too much crap, I am vomiting crap. This is our lot in life? They invented fucking mobile suits in Zeon but those bastards on that planet that SMELLS have won every war since 0079?! I AM NOT MAKING BILLIONS OF DOLLARS A YEAR AND LIVING IN A PALACE TO RUN ZEON. When are we going to hold people like Full Frontal accountable? WHEN, WHEN, WHEN?! I don’t care who is offended, if you don’t want to hear it then GET OFF MY COLONY. I DON’T WANT YOU ON MY COLONY! You DON’T WIN ANYWAY! Who wants you anyway? WIN SOMETHING! I am the kid with no toys on Christmas and I am sick of it. There is no hope just … ughhhhh.  What did we ever do to deserve this? What did we do? – Zeke Zeon (AM 1050 Radio Zeon)

If Bright Noa thinks it is a dumb idea you better bet your ass it is a dumb idea.

Sweet new ride time.

I bet you have, considering you missed the last three offensives.

Yes, yes the Federation gives you bad hair days and menopause too, anything else?

Listen man you could do a lot worse for a daughter in-law, and she's one of the better looking Zabis to boot.

I approve of this pairing.

You know what they day once a masochist always a masochist...

Well to Team Anaheim here you will be re-purposed...

I hate having to accept this I really do.

Varying degrees of want for this Yuri pairing.

It is bubble bath time...

NOOOOOOOOOOO! Indeed Marida.

I know man tell me about it this rampant love for Gundam ZZ is hard to swallow.

Did they like forget Gundam 0083 or something? It's like Delaz was erased along with Gato or something. Must be a Newtype/Cyber-Newtype bias.

They also made up the majority of people, sadly the Zekes were always poor because they were too lazy to get a job.

That's exactly what Char was, his Counterattack was all about Lala and Amuro.

Once again Mineva proves herself to be the Best Girl, Banagher deserves Micott.

Well you aren't much of a man now so go ahead, cry some.

This makes it certain that the Remnants are being played for fools by Full Frontal.

It's going to be disappointing it's his life story, lass.

I approve of this verbal thrashing, I just wanted a Bright Slap for old times sake...

I bet he is, I know it's hard to face the fact that you started the war and dictated how brutal it was going to be.

At least going for the Coup de Main was a good idea even if they failed to execute the plan.

WHO'S YOUR DADDY?

Ugh yeah Loni way to fucking make Suberoa look stupid after all that whining about alleged Feddie Atrocities.

Loni did not take kindly to this Ranka concert.

Indeed wasn't Char all about saving lolis?

It's almost like having Gundam 0083 again.

I wonder which of this bunch will prove to be Monsha.

Great advice.

You mean the Greatest Commander in all of Gundam.

I like how they made the Remnants so rag tag that they show cased so many suits. It also served as a reminder of how the Zekes wasted their resources on many models instead of making a decent multi-role suit.

Well that sounds plenty Zeke-ish to me, some things never change.

Good of you to feel that way but when you are on the receiving end... you have no right to complain.

Feddies always take care of their own, unlike the Zekes who like to stab each other in the back.

BANG!

Its been a while since I busted a cap in some Zeke's ass.

This ain't no Zaku but I can still kick ass.

How you like me now Zeke? Not so fun is it when you are on the receiving end of bullshit haxx0r.

I had no idea that the Byarlant caused acne...

FUCK YEAH SOMEONE FINALLY KILLS SAJI CROSSROAD.

Don't worry Suberoa, Marida can't have kids anyway.

Wow this is embarassing.

If you were half the man Bright Noa is Suberoa, you would have slapped Links or pistol whipped him.

Banagher's foot and fist will break your face, but words will never hurt me.

Hey High Five?

Up high?

Down low?

Too slow...

Well what do you know...

The Zekes made the Star Wars Kid a pilot.

The Force wasn't with you.

Don't worry Suberoa, you're so ugly I hardly noticed the damage Banagher did to your face..

What can I say you have a knack for getting betrayed.

And another one bites the dust...

It's called a fan wank, and it was fun.

Loni sure knows a thing or two about being late she almost overslept again.

Bang! Guess who's back? back again?

Yet another timely arrival by Bright Noa's goons.

Too bad for the Zeon Remnants they got nothing left...

You know they never did bother to surrender, you Zekes never do, always to the bitter pointless end.

That's just pathetic, won't live for love, won't live for the chance to see Tebow time, Loni really has no life to speak of.

It's like 8th MS Team all over again, sort of...

Well at least it was a Feddie shooting this guy in the back and not some other Zeke.

Wait why am I turning purple what is this red spot on my loins?

I see we have another smart Feddie to give the Zekes fits.

Yeah I know if only you had the sense to join NUNS and be a Valkyrie pilot.

And yet you're the one who brought her along and egged her on, it's a little late isn't it, but being late is the way of the Zeon Remnant isn't it?

And you took out a couple thousand unarmed civilians...

Finally some Unicorn Action.

Good grief are we going to spend three plus episodes charging up?

Not quite Valkyrie sexy but still good looking.

Here we go again...same old stuff again...

But you're not right...

You know what I agree, you started it and by God Bright Noa is going to finish it.

Couldn't even say it with enthusiasm could you?

Late again as always...

I say DO IT.

Yeah, you guys didn't achieve anything lasting.

What Banagher can't do, Riddhe can.

I always wanted to know how black a Zeke heart can be.

Say Goodbye Loni, and good riddance.

I hear ya man, it sucks that this series is all about that loser Banagher and you have to clean up the mess.

Get used to it your going to lose many more girlfriends at this rate.

Thus ended any hope for continued Zeke aggression on Earth, and another victory for Bright Noa .

I would have done the same.

Indeed, Banagher is unworthy to pilot a Gundam.

Guess who?

    ugh Riddhe lost in the Minerva sweepstakes and almost earned a slap from bright for his bratty behavior he loses points… I was sad Bright didn’t slap him for putting on airs, but i assume he is saving his strength for when he gets Banagher on his ship, he will beat Banagher into a man or kill him in the process. Minerva is too strong a woman for Riddhe she walked right out on him, just like she did to Banagher in episode 1. Banagher acted like a little bitch for the entire episode as well nothing new since he has done this in every episode. The fool didnt take in account the open cockpit thing only works on guys in gundam wing.

      I fully expect Bright to slap Banagher through a couple reinforced walls when they finally meet. As for Riddhe, Mineva might marry him out of duty in the end considering how influential Riddhe’s parents are. Let’s not forget that she can either live with them or with Anaheim and marry that fat guy. I’d say she’s better off with Riddhe at least he loves her and is honest not to mention faithful and not fooling around with every girl he meets.

        damn man the girl has better options then just Riddhe and fat guy, a girl like that will have guys lining up to propose. Banagher “just say you need me”, Minerva “i dont need you” lol!!!! Riddhe “marry me throw away your name i’ll protect you and you will be free”, Minerva “what kind of freedom is that?” 2 up and 2 down. Zeon though wtf you want people to believe in you yet you are still pulling the same S*&T you were pulling back under the Zabis… yea yea the feddies have had some rogue elements like the titans that have done the same, but damn neo neo neo neo neo zeon doesnt seem any better then zeon under the Zabis. Spacenoid if you want freedom you need a group like the AUG which the great commander Bright fought for, not another dictator. Atleast get a commander that values the lives of his troops, and does more with his resources then build himself a palace to live in on an improverished rock in space.

          I am sure Mineva would but right now there aren’t too many guys in the running, unless one of those Londo Bell Guys steps up to be the Monsha.

    And so they’re gonna force Banagher to hand over a machine that they can’t pilot nor use to find Laplace’s Box. If Banagher doesn’t hand the Gundam over, Riddhe would probably shoot him with the beam magnum and destroy the gundam, thus losing all leads to Laplace’s Box.
    I like that Beam Gatling Gun

      Let’s not forget the Bright Noa can be quite…persuasive. Also Riddhe’s family is trying to destroy the box or at least stop it from being opened and so was Mineva. In any case even if it is gone Anaheim seems to be able to MASS PRODUCE Unicorns so while the box might be gone they can get a similarly sweet ride.

        Mass-producing Unicorn is a sure-win tactic. Unicorn is unstoppable in NT-D mode.
        If the Unicorn is the Beast of Possibilities, Unicorn Gundam would be the Gundam of Possibilities.

            The NT-D system requires a new type or artificial new type to work… and im pretty sure sunrise has beat the new type horse to death so hopefully instead of more new type battles and nekkid ghost people, we get variable Jegans with bad ass mooks :)

    You know I’m not mad. Normally I’d get mad and start arguing with you crusader but, I’m not. Because I just read up on what the mothercrap the box is and it makes me happy. I enjoyed watching the mass Zeon assault groups charge forward and slaughter the feddies and I still maintain that they won through Hax and Trans-Am and I’ll stand by it.

    Sieg Zeon.

      Hey a win is a win and you only have Full Frontal to blame for being a traitor, and yourselves for being suckers. Not only did you accomplish nothing you lost that Mobile Armor and Loni, but hey console yourself if you must even if the box makes this all a pointless exercise. I look forward to seeing Bright Noa torture you guys some more. Remember just because you see fuzz on your dome don’t mean you are no longer bald with a sex offender mustache.

      Somethings never change like you celebrating the death of a mother and child and loads more unarmed people, but hey it was a wash in the end since none of the Remnants lived to tell about how they got suckered by some fat guy masquerading as Char.

        The box does make the entire thing a pointless exercise, true but it’s what I’ve been after I support the Zeon forces only because they want independence, I hated Ghiren for his insanity and his whole “Spacenoid Supremacy” bull but I did always like that they wanted independence because it does seem like the federation was out to just keep a boot heel on the colonies. If I’m wrong then please explain.

          If those are the ends then I must say it really wasn’t worth the means that Zeon used to get there. It stopped being about Independence the day the Zabis took over, from then on it was about conquest, after that failed then all that was left was struggle for revenge and dominance. It was never about co-existence nor about independence, after the First Zeon Republic fell (through an in internal political assassination).

          It wasn’t as if the Federation massively failed in colony development things were quite bearable in Feddie Colonies. In fact the original goal was achieved when everyone had a better standard of living instead of having haves and have nots on a crowded Earth. What might have been had Deikun lived, in all likelihood there would have been a negotiated settlement, instead he gets killed and then later the Zekes kill General Revil during peace talks virtually ensuring that there would be no easy peace.

          The Zekes declared their independence and got it for the most part, and aside from the embargo, the Federation wasn’t invading the Zeon Republic. Let’s not for get the Zekes struck the first blow by invading other colonies and calling it a liberation, not unlike how Japan invaded East Asia claiming that they were liberators. Moreover the cause for independence does effectively die after this and economically independence netted nothing but an over sized palace budget and general poverty for the masses of Zeon.

          It’s really hard for me to see the Mythical Boot of Feddie oppression since they had plenty of volunteers from their colonies and they had a much better standard of living in general. The Titans didn’t come until after the Zekes proved that co-existence was impossible with Operation Stardust. There were two kinds of Zekes the ones who longed for nothing more than more bloodshed like Gato, and then the Zekes who were thrown under the bus after the war like Cima and were sick of war and sick of fighting for something that was well and truly lost after Gihren killed his dad. The Zekes couldn’t be trusted to uphold a truce and they would always agitate for the destruction of the Federation despite having maintained sovereignty after the war on places like Axis. How many Neo Neo Neo Zeon movements will there have to be until the diminishing pool of Zekes realize that they effectively have no chance to win any more? Every time they try they screw over their fellow spacenoids more and more with new atrocities, and at this point they have no chance for popular support, the die-hards are all that is left.

          Nothing but misery seems to come after these Neo Zeon Movements, Stardust netted the Titans, Haman fumbled and created people like Marida, and Char ended up dead with a line of pretenders that incited yet more misery which is where we are now. I fail to see how that inflated palace budget they got going on Palau is the ideal future for a new Zeon. Would you really trade a nice colony for the shit hole that is Palau for the sake of independence under under a military dictatorship?

          Zeon wanted nothing to do with the Federation, and the Federation responded in kind with wanting nothing to do with the Zeke Economy. Zeon then realized that to be alone was to have a lower standard of living and when that happened they declared war as a response to secure resources with an empire under the guise of liberation. They didn’t care who they screwed over for that goal. They made beggars of spacenoids like Cima when their colonies were deemed expendable and used to further damage the Earth. If I had to choose between a questionable Government that could deliver a good standard of living without martial law to one that was hereditary and was more interested in building palaces instead of economic progress I would choose the former in a heartbeat.

          When Zeon declared that they did not want have any dealings with the Federation, they should not have been surprised that the Federation would want nothing to do with them. At least in that “unjust system” they had decent homes and didn’t want for food for the most part. When they no longer had that they insisted that they take it by force. They set the benchmark for brutality and they got their just deserts when the Feddies responded in kind. Suberoa liked to kill for vengeance, and if that is how he feels then he should shut up when the Feddies did the same.

          With each passing war there are fewer and fewer Zekes, and more and more spacenoids who would rather volunteer for the Federation. The Federation is willing to co-exist with a Zeon, Zeon isn’t willing to do that and are more than willing to kill their compatriots in vain and losing efforts to restore them to their “proper place.”

          Wanting Independence is one thing, getting it and then railing against your new neighbors and starting a war where you kill those who didn’t follow you is quite another. I don’t think that a “Noble” Goal is a good excuse for all that the Zekes did to achieve it. If God wanted them to win they would have already, when they struck the first blow it was a war that was their to lose and they lost it. The factions that spawned afterwards leaves me to believe that they would have been a terrible regime had they won. You would have petty squabbles between the nobles and other factions to the point that you may very well end up with the Balkanization of the Earth Sphere and war in perpetuity. Unity is not something you throw away lightly, and if you cannot agree when you live in the same borders what hope do you have to agree and live in peace between one?

          Fundamentally Independence only sounded sexy, only for a select new enfranchised group did declaring it net them any new gains. Look at Palau which is largely cut off from the Federation, its no paradise and it looks worse off than Feddie controlled territory. You may think that proud poverty is noble and good, but I’ve been through poverty and I tell you there is nothing noble or good about it. You have to ask yourself what did they gain from independence? I say they got nothing and lost a whole lot more while alienating themselves further from the Feddies and the Spacenoids who didn’t see any sense in joining them. It would be funny as hell if Palau really did vote for increased taxes to support palace building, but some how I doubt that is what happened.

    See the thing is that Zeon lost cause they didn’t have shield companies to hide behind. Once their nobility started coming apart in the One Year war, they could never agree on a unified development strategy so they had nobles wasting resources on several different research lines.

    The Feddies though, they didn’t spend a dime on research, Anaheim (and subsequent contractors) did all the research and presented prototypes for funding contracts. So when the Feddie’s committed, it was to a unified product line. They focused on GMs for adaptive load outs with interchangeable part for increased logistic efficiency

    Additionally, Zeon’s advantage in Mobile Suits (aside from the super new types) was that their grunts typically had more experience than the Feddie counter part. We can defiantly see the impact a true “Zeon Ace” (not named Char) in Gato and Norris in their respective Theater of Operations. But even they got overwhelmed by the Federations material/technological advantage.

    Full Frontal… he’s a fraud, we don’t even really know his goal other than he’s setting himself up to cash out at some point. There’s no way for any type of Zeon remnant to gain enough power to truly threaten the Federation on equal footing or even sue for a truce line. All he does is shows ups, raids a Feddie freighter/isolated colony and plays boogie man.

    Banagher is a child that doesn’t even understand his role. Honestly, it seems like he’s only trying to “silence” New Types cause their often violent thoughts disturb him. It show’s that he lacks the mental discipline to block them out. Even new types that have valid beliefs, he nullifies with the NT-D system. I hope he gets to speak with Bright as he needs guidance and not manipulation. Even Amuro, who could be argues was the most powerful new type, eventually learned how to control his thoughts and how the thoughts of others affected him.

      Not mention that those Aces were wasted in unimaginative last stands and weren’t used to train a new crop of pilots, thus the inexperienced had the better hardware while their veterans were dying left and right in older suits.

      Full Frontal is a fraud though to what end will be interesting to find out.

    I would admit, this was more funnier.
