      Back in 2000 I had no idea they were basically just speed running 10 years of OG Gundam stories. I also didn’t know that the things the characters said didn’t make any sense, I just assumed I was too dumb to get it.

      The second half especially is a complete mess, but the power of nostalgia makes it a beautiful mess.

        Fucking Peacemillion. Howard just pulled an entire fucking battleship out of his ass. Although, to be fair, Relena somehow having fully reestablished the Sanc Kingdom 5 episodes after chasing Heero down to Antarctica, so stuff magically happening out of nowhere was kinda baked in from early on.
