3rd pic i sense loli!

What's wrong with Akatsuki? I happen to like bling bling Akatsuki which has beam reflection coating rather than Hyaku Shiki which is just a non-special MS with gold-for-no-other-reason armor.

The gold is not the coating. The gold is just a paintscheme to taunt enemies.

Not a CE fanboy. I just like some of the designs.

Shrug. In any case the reflection abilities was never shown in zeta gundam anime. At least not till where i am.

Well i give u that the portrayal leaves much to be desired. The beam getting absorbed by the Akatsuki, then regurgitated out by the armor with a weird pose was uberly lame.

All these inconsistencies can be easily fixed. I can simply say "oooh super secret technology from the old days. Orb is super secret and all the Gold reflective armor in da world has been used by ORB-01, so we can't make anymore" kinda shite.

Then about the cutting armour, can always create some mumbo jumbo story "beam produced by beam boomerang is not just heat+light energy but as well as kinetic, (the action of the boomerang being thrown or a beam saber slashing action). A beam rifle's beam fired from rifle is not attached to any kinetic energy thus easily deflected. But the beam boomerang is attached to a kinetic source which is the boomerang emitter, thus although the initial impact of the beam might be reflected on Akatsuki's armour, the kinetic force re-aligns it back , thus cutting the armour." So if they are able to put "beam coated bullets or missiles" that will mean Akatsuki's armor is useless since it doesn't have Phase-Shift.

Man i tell great BS.

What can 1 golden MS do about the whole O.M.N.I forces raining forth on their small little island?

And i believe it was being built in the Orb mainland shortly before his death, hence the 4 years time to develop it and finally use it in Seed Destiny.

Yes yes its my speculation only.

Well:

1stly i dun think ORB-01 Akatsuki is meant to be the "OMFG uber ultimate weapon to save ORB" at all. Its more of a symbol for the leader of ORB to lead his forces in. I don't remember it single handedly pwning everything though. Been a long time. But one can argue the Akatsuki wasn't completed yet at the time and Cagali is really a crap pilot at that time. And Strike Freedom is because of Kira Yamato Jesus h4xx0rz powers. Not because its Strike Freedom.

2ndly, Next Generation Advanced Mobile suits like the Strike Freedom and Infinite Justice were in production even before the 1st War in SEED ended. They were of course stolen (LOL) and refined for use with Kira Yamato before it was given to him after the original Freedom was destroyed. You don't see other ZAFT mecha with Neutron Jammer Canceller, Rail Guns, or the M.E.T.E.O.R-like things either right? It just means everything was experimental at that point in time and there was no way to mass-produce something still in development stages. Even the DRAGOON system on the Providence Gundam was considered experimental despite the Dreadnaught Gundam being the test bed for the Dragoon system. That said, its not weird to think that the Akatsuki's reflective armor can be implemented on the Astray's shields or anywhere else solely because, its an unfinished PROTOTYPE. Prototypes are supposed to have the ONLY technology that no other mobile suits have. Maybe during Gundam Seed FINAL (season 3 tentative name...lol) we'll see all the Astrays in Gold Armor? Who knows?

Conclusion: Its not ahead of its time if its still in development and not yet perfected. If i say i am creating a beam rifle now which only comes out 20 years time, are u trying to say that i should have beam pistols out in 5 years time?

Aiyo....in development mah...that's why not yet complete. It was Moergenrate that create all this Gundams in the 1s place....what with phase shift la...beamu heiki la.....etc.

Tsk tsk. I tend to be devil's advocate when it comes to CE. There are people who hate it for the wrong reasons as well as people who like it for the wrong reasons.

Question: all this talk about SEED, made me wonder one thing. Moergenrate is made up of Naturals and Coordinators, how come they don't have a good OS for Mobile Suits yet. When ZAFT stolen the Gundams, they basically reprogram the OS on the spot over there and it took seconds. I'm sure the Coordinators of Moergenrate can do the same thing, right? Why must have Kira Yamato help develop the OS for them much later?

Despite popular thinking, I think its the ace pilots that are h4xX0rz in Seed universe, not their mobile suits. Akatsuki in Cagali's hands were just meh. Give it to ZOMG NEWTYPE Mwu, then it becomes a different story.

ORB Union made up of many islands, not just Onogoro island. Akatsuki was in dunno which island when it was handed over to Cagali.



Installed their own Blue Cosmos guy as the leader and left it alone after that.

Watch Zeta gundam. Its the same...maybe worse. Every episode sure got limb get cut off but easily replaced by next episode

I'm still at ep4 only. The wapanese girl is actually some middle eastern monarchy....Ismail. Lol. Former emirates with no fossil fuel = pwned. XD

Cuz super duper mech always stresses the pilot. Whatudu....prototype mecha always like that. Hahaha.

Btw question to Gundumtards....when was the 1s instance of the "newtype ping" which is in Gundam to what it is today?

I was watching Zeta gundam and I realise there is no newtype ping, but a strange whishing sound that the newtypes describe as "pressure". An uncomfortable feeling felt when another newtype that wants to harm the person is nearby.

I think this is before Seed, maybe in F91 or ZZ or something. Anyone can confirm? Because suddenly it became canon for the newtype ping to have a flash and that ping sound. Even in SRW games it became like that.

THen why Zeta tarak woh?

And yes i won't watch it. Zeta also i beh tahan liow. Animax also gonna start airing Zeta coming Friday. XD

Chill chill be nice to the noobs. XD

Newtypes. XD
