    My personal guess is that Eri is genetically modified, either purposely (in secret, since her mother doesn't seem to know about that), or unknowingly (e.g., the energy bar used in her mother's artificial arm might have some effects on Eri when she was still an embryo. That's why the texture on Eri's face is blue rather than red.

    The OS seems more like an early developed A.I system that can read pilot's mind. I think this series has a little reference to Pacific Rim too. Started as a medical support (DARPA program in PR), lethal to the pilot (PR solves it with a 2-pilot setting while this series is more about the compatibility rate). IBO system is wired and here it looks like they all go wireless. Mom connects to the suit through GUND part and Ericht control the suit through her mom looks like a higher version of Wireless Android Auto to me. It's going to be interesting if the gundam OS is actually an A.I and it will develop its self-awareness at some point and probably will start communicating with the girl, maybe in the last moment like Muzzle from Gargantia?

    @barrybend7189 Рік тому +1

    I know it's not stated but from looking at the fight and the mobile suits of the Gund system they aren't weapons of war but space colony defense craft. The rifles of the Lfriths are unwieldy, large and bulky, the bits only work defensively, the mines are only rated for debris clearing as it took multiple to take down a single mass production MS. Plus the whole production team was focused on the Civilian application for the tech not it's use as a war machine. So in this case it's like Gundam Seed with the Stargazer program. Also the Lfrith is named after the sun god worshipped by the Rabbits in the book Water ship down( not the first time as the Titans test mobile Suits in Advance of Zeta are named after characters from that book) and is a beneficial deity not a resentful one. It's a bit of a stretch but it seems unlike other series Gundam the witch from Mercury presents the idea that while the Gund Arms development was an earth project it's intention was entirely for space development. As unlike most other Gundam series the main rifle blasts and beam sabers are blue as opposed to the usual red, yellow, purple or Green of the rest of the franchise.

    The obvious answer here is that two minds reduces the strain considerably as far the Lfrith goes
    for the pre production models, the obvious problem is the number of units
    The unit sends out 10 mines plus controlling the MS, hence why the strain is intense because instead of shooting
    its chasing which requires considerably more focus

    • @mj2005gundam
      @mj2005gundam  2 роки тому +1

      Then again, is it really that obvious?
      If Lfrith exerts strain, it will have exerted it on both Elnora and Ericht, or entirely on one of them, yet we saw none of them experience the symptoms of the data storm. As I said, Elnora was just having a cold sweat from witnessing her 4-year-old daughter kill people with her mind. On top of that, if there is indeed negated strain that both minds are taking, the blue markings will have appeared on both their faces, yet they only appeared on Ericht's, suggesting that only she's in control, while her mother presumably acts as a back-up controller.
      There's also the concept of the final Lfrith designed to not have any backlash to the pilot in order to prove the stability of the GUND-Format technology. So either you're right and the backlash that there is is negated by both minds, or that what they were trying to do worked and the pilots suffered no backlash at all.

      You are right about the strain happening as soon as they start using too much at once, but just as MJ said in the video it is once they go to PMET Score 3. The markings happen period when funnel/ bit tech is used. Also, traditional and mine bits should not matter on how much strain they put on a person, they are still tech being controlled the same way.

    I think the reason why Ericht managed to link up with LFRITH is because she's a child with an underdeveloped brain, which in theory is more susceptible to change and adaptation that allows her brain to have a smoother connection to the machine, very much like how in IBO Child soldiers are rampant in mars and the solar system outer rings due to the fact that the implants have a higher chance of bonding with a child than a full-grown adult. Which means if Vanadis really thrown their ethics away we would have a classic gundam situation: child soldiers and experimentations.

      I'm honestly excited with how their gonna go with the school setting for TWFM considering most of the casts are young childrens and probably have their fair share of being involved with Mobile Suits Development.

    I love the Gundam Lfrith's design and its ability to control the shield bits. In fact, I believe G-Witch's thin waist Gundam design is more believably survivable and aesthetically pleasing than G-Orphan's unarmored Gundam design.
    However, I really hate how the Gundam got its arm cut off by a sword. Logically speaking, the purpose of starting the GUND-Arms project is to create mobile suit that can single handedly defeat multiple opponents. The only way to realistically achieve such victory is to make sure the mobile suit's armor is capable of surviving attacks from multiple opponents, specifically multi-directional attacks delivered by primitive and cheap weapons such as shell-firing autocannons, missiles, and solid melee weapon (the mobile suit can rely on shield bits for protection against beam weapon). At the very least, you want to make sure that your mobile suit can survive the enemies' firepowers long enough for the shield bits to clear out all the enemies. You cannot realistically rely purely on evasive maneuver to survive unequal gunfights because it's horribly fuel inefficient, impractical, and dangerous to the pilot's health due to the sudden changes of inertia.
    Maybe I'm judging G-Witch too early, or I have missed something when watching the Prologue that can explain what happened. I just don't like how the Gundam can be easily damaged by a sword. I mean for God's sake, the battery-powered Gundams from Gundam SEED have Phase Shift armor that is immune to anything that is not beam without any weight penalty (though the only downside is that it's power hungry).

    • @StrikeNoir105E
      @StrikeNoir105E 2 роки тому +3

      1). The Beguir-Beu by all accounts is designed as an anti-Gundam weapon, with performance and abilities that allow it to kill Gundams easily. It'd be a rather bad weapon in general if it can't even use its weapons to damage a Gundam.
      2) Note that the Lfrith does have an energy barrier system it uses to deflect attacks, so it does have a defensive system in place. Also, mobile suits in space are often portrayed in a manner similar to fighter aircraft, where they utilize maneuver and speed to evade most attacks, like how the Gundam here evades most of the Heingra squadron's attacks due to how fast it was because of the GUND Format, and the only reason they got defeated was because the Beguir-Beu was a similarly powerful machine in the hands of an actual elite pilot. Btw, IRL the main tenet when it comes to gunfights is not to have better armor than your enemy, but to try not to get hit at all, which is true even for infantrymen and armored vehicles: you rely on the element of maneuver and surprise to get the drop on your enemy, and use the environment to your advantage such as taking cover. In the case of not having cover, such as in air combat or in space, then you need to have speed and maneuverability on your side in close combat, or pray you have weapon systems capable of killing your enemies long before they see you (which is why most modern fighter design trends toward stealth with long-range air-to-air missiles).
      3) You're judging these Gundam's by how they're portrayed in other series, which isn't really a good way to start: you'll want to judge Gundams by how they're portrayed in their own series, not in comparison to others. Also, there have been Gundams that have rather bad armor before, such as the Gundam Astrays which don't have Phase Shift armor, and most Gundams starting with Zeta no longer had armor superiority against their enemies at the beginning, e.g. the Gundam Mk 2 when it started out in Zeta was matched by a lot of other mobile suits in its day in terms of firepower capable of dealing damage against it.

      Early judgements I feel like. We need to see more, but yeah, as Noir said, Beguir-Beu is an anti-Gundam weapon in the hands of an Ace, so it only makes sense for it to be able to damage the Lfrith from shutting it down and slicing its arm

      Is it safe to assume that Gundam Lfrith's armour works the same way as the Phase Shift from SEED and GN-coated E-Carbon from 00 (both rely on energy from power supply to maintain physical immunity), therefore Lfrith got its arm cut off because its power got shut down in that fight?

    • @barrybend7189

      Actually it was never stated that the Lfrith and it's two Mass production prototypes we're military in nature. As the company and design team only focused on civil applications. Sure the linking system has a military application but the mass production units only had marginal performance above the mook suits. Weaponry wise it looks like they were fitted for colony hazard defense and debris clearing.

      Early days yet, buddy. We don't know everything that's going on in the series.

      I watched a lot of anime in general. You can make an overpowered character but you have to do it very well. This isn’t really it. That’s why power creep is so loved. Pokémon, dbz, even gundam. I hated banager for the same reason

    How people like this G witch series, 12 episode almost no action woke as shit, elite school with bs power trip and ugly mobile suits.
    Prologue had more fun than 1-9 episodes.
    Even original gundam have 1970 have better plot than this.
