Was this a weaker version of the moonlight butterfly? Or was it just easier to control?
Why does it matter?
>>22592341I assume weaker, they probably tried recreating it with the rose of hermes blueprint, but this was morel like experimental retro-engineering from the original plans.
>>22592341It literally did jack shit with it so who cares
>>22592341Is this a stealth Turn A G-Reco chronology thread
>>22592341It was the moonlight butterfly without the mini black hole power source to fully power it.
>>22592341Given it did absolutely nothing it's probably weaker. Could be an early prototype and predecessor. Or a remnant of the tech if you're one if THESE people.
>>22592451G-Reco has been proven to be a rework of the canned turn A sequel, so that's settled science.
>>22592451Yes
>>22592341Weaker since they already had engineered the photon torpedoes as the big destructive weapon.>>22592592That doesn't mean anything in terms of chronology. You could say G-Reco is a rework of Ring of Gundam, which happens in the late UC. Besides, tell me how it makes sense to be in year 1074 500 years after year 2345 in Turn A. The only good explanation I've found is that mind control/mass brainwashing was used.
>>22592632>You could say G-Reco is a rework of Ring of GundamNo, you can't. Ring of Gundam itself is a completed work and it itself is a rework of a concept for the original Turn A.
>>22592632Photon torpedoes are stronger than the moonlight butterfly. They're the ultimate weapon of UC, which is also where the moonlight butterfly originated from. This isn't even arguable since Light of Life confirmed that the first civilization the Turn A wipes out on screen is the UC Amuro lived in.
>>22592673>single target weapon is more powerful than a weapon that covered the entire solar system and destroyed all technology exposed to itLMAO
G-Reco was absolute garbage.
>>22592683>retarded turn a coper still repeating lies from the 2000sHoly shit, I knew you fags were retarded but not this retarded.
>>22592704Considering there were human settlements on Mars and Jupiter, and we hear jack squat from them in Turn A, looks to me like Moonlight Butterfly made it there
>>22592683>covered the entire solar systemSource?
>>22592721you can infer it from there not being anything mentioned from the mars settlements, or the h-3 extraction operation in Jupiter. The only human settlements left are the Earth and the Moon.
>>22592725Where was it mentioned or shown though?
>>22592730I answered your question.
>>22592731So it wasn't mentioned or shown in any form of media then?
>>22592705>>22592725Weren't those the ones who fucked off to another galaxy and made Turn X?
>>22592725The show literally shows colonies/resource satellites near the moon. Not to mention the zacktrager, which is still functional, in Earth's orbit
>>22592705>>22592725Why does the Moonlight Butterfly have to have destroyed everything on those planets? Couldn't they have just been trashed through war?
>>22592673NTA but we actually have direct comparision between Turn A and Perfect Pack G-Self. Turn A is stronger, so I would assume MLB is stronger than PT
>>22592704even if that anon is a retard, the moonlight butterfly enveloped the earth. Id say that's more powerful than a dozen specks of fairy dust that disintegrate part of an MS on contact.
Give it to me for realIs G-Reco actually good or is it a /m/ meme?I ordered the bluray because I guess CR clearanced it so I'm giving it a shot, but is it a 6/10 or kinda worthy when compared to other Tomino Gundam?
>>22592964I'd say it's worthwhile. Its worldbuilding is some of Gundam's best, and if you're familiar with Tomino's more fast-paced shows like King Gainer or Brain Powerd, it shouldn't be too bad. The characters are its weak spot -- they're insufferably arrogant.
>>22592964I really liked it but I went into it expecting nothing. It is much more of a Brain Powered/King Gainer/Turn A style series than an early UC war story.
>>22592964It's really good, but really hard to understand.
>>22592964I'd say it's good albeit notably flawed in its pacing and character development, and with a big fat asterisk noting that you probably want to be already familiar with the style of writing used in Tomino's later shows. If you are into stuff like King Gainer, it's pretty fun.
>>22592969>they're insufferably arrogant.That's because they are mostly pretending or lying and putting on a brave face
