What kind of a pussy that needs four shields?
>>
>>22583862
The shit creator behind Thunderbolt has a fetish for retarded designs like that, the whole series is basically just his OC story with a vague coating of UC gundam slapped ontop for marketing purposes.

The anime is canon, actually . No, it doesn't make sense

It makes no fucking sense at all.

anon they fellate thunderbolt in the reddits

>>22583862
actually makes sense since the FA Gundam (Thunderbolt) area of operation is a destroyed colony with lots of debris. makes sense to protect yourself from stray debris with lots of shields

Hey anon, did you knew that 100% of redditors breath air?
>>
>>22583995
...no they do not
>>
>>22583862
So many Thunderbolt designs feel like the creator was having a laugh at it thinking "there is no way they'll approve of this!" Only for said design to get approved of anyway.
>>
>>22583898
Ok 08th MS Team/0083 fanboy. Nobody cares about your bias for everything being "gritty, grounded, and realistic". I will admit, Thunderbolt isn't a bad mecha manga, but it should NOT be considered Gundam canon. The author himself said as much.
>>22583865
Moonlight Mile had better designs. It's a shame that only three chapters are in English, that it's such a coomer manga, and that the anime is so dirt-cheap it barely focuses on said designs.

Wrong, they huff their own farts.

FTFY even 0079 is dogshit and the fact that it got un-cancelled is proof of gooks having shit taste.
>>

>shouldnt be considered canon
Well too bad the anime is lol
>>
>>22584502
gritty, grounded and realistic is what gundam supposed to be about. its what 79 and zeta are about.
>>
>>22583862
I really like the Thunderbolt designs. Sub arms are cool and strapping weapons to every surface is neat
>>
>>22584686
>79
Probably
>Zeta

>>22584297
That's G Gundam actually.

I just watched December Sky and Bandit Flower. When I bought them I thought that the whole thing was only two movies and was mad as fuck when I found out at the end of the second one that the story wasn't finished. Does anybody have any recent insight into when the fuck they're going to do the third movie?
>>
>>22595066
There's been zero talk about it, yet it's been long enough that there is plenty of material to make another 8 OVA episodes or two movies and not run into the issue of waiting for Thunderbolt's author to push out more story. They're not gonna make any more.
>>
>>22595096
Fucking criminal shame. The combat porn was excellent.
>>
>>22595096
The guy that runs Gundam said they're waiting for Thunderbolt to end, and that was before Hathaway came out and during the time where Thunderbolt's mangaka had his right hand explode and had to start drawing with his left hand.
>>
>>22595066
never I hope

Pretty sure that the mango will be over soon™

It was wierd to hear Zoro's VA in the role of the Guntank commander, but seeing his cojones, it makes sense

The producers behind the Thunderbolt anime specifically said they are waiting for Gundam Thunderbolt manga to be complete. They don't want to run into a situation again where they run out of manga material to put into an anime.

The manga releases 2 chapters a month. It is in its final battle arc, so it should be completed in 1 to 3 years at most.

>wrecked guntank
Surely you mean Guntrain
>>
>>22583862
1. They're in a very asteroid-thick area with tons of space debris, charging forward at enemies who shoot mostly at their fronts.
2. Idiot GM pilots keep ditching their shields. At least this way, they either can't throw them away or even if they throw 1 away, they'll still have another. I swear, so many OYW battlefields must be littered with those shields. Not even broken or damaged, just thrown away and possibly outliving their pilots.

Io should be on suicide watch desu.

>>
>>22597276
Io is using the radio music with the psicommu system (the cloned head of Fuu) to distract Daryl, and Daryl had just killed the G-Bull and two Guncannons that tried to snipe him, and destroyed the hands of the Zeong. He was very distracted
>>
>>22597276
Daryl was fighting a whole fleet.

But honestly, this whole manga the author has been giving Io a bunch of a ton of help and power ups because he's a weaker pilot than Daryl.

The author wants to have this weird "both sides are equal. War is hell " nonsense so he keeps giving the Federation all this plot armor.

Realistically, a fleet of Psycho Zakus should destroy everything in their path. We saw what a single one did when Daryl was the pilot. It solo'd an entire fleet. Yet when the monks actually DO get a fleet of 100 psycho Zakus, they get turned into cannon fodder by the Federation Fleet. Doesn't make sense really.
