They missed an excellent oportunity to show mobile worker suits in the recycling depot. But the "A Team" inspired junk yard rebuild of Zaku II's was great. I get the feeling we missed a great back story of the highly ranked Majour being in a depot. He showed some experience as a Zaku tank driver.
We immediately recognized the EX’s head from the teasers was almost identical to the EZ8’s head in 08th MS Team, which got us thinking that it’s the same head, refurbished and sent to Southeast Asia to replace the missing RX-79(G) head.
@@greatwhite3512 They do, actually, that's pretty much how every Newtype kid controlling the mobile suit who has a strong connection with the MC dies in classic UC.
Possibly Gundam EX is had connection with organization GRAVE that had to be Federation secret organization that involved created Slave Wraith team and Aggressor team
there might be some truth to that considering they had access to a newtype pilot and a kid no less, not to mention the EX came with a compliment of GM's similar to its design (having triple beam saber racks and the same chasis with luna titanium judging by how durable it was in that one episode) its lmost as if it was meant to be a special forces unit comprising of similar mobile suits for ease of maintenance and modularity(being able to equip the same weapons) also by the fact its mission goals to target Zeon high commands and aces in the European front to the point of chasing them dowb, they act so efficiently that they didn't allow a single mobile suit to be captured or stolen and made sure it had been destroyed upon retreat or if it were hijacked.
Hi From Jaburo. I mean Brazil. The EX G undam remmember me when the WB landing in Jaburo and the mechanics crew, take the data and upgrade the Gundam to Amuro, maybe the EX use the parts who are removed from the Amuro's Gundam, or maybe its a amalgama from others Gundam Units who shows in MS Stories. IF they put more money, maybe wee can see a modern version from Odessa's Battle or Jaburo.
Yeah.. very grey area as to the relationship there. If Fenix was her son the meeting would have been different. What mother would not recognize her son. And wasn't her son of a different name?
She literally had a ptsd induced dream showing her kid’s face. she even had a locket with her family picture. She even said her kid was in space, waiting for her to come home. when did the show imply the Gundam pilot was Iria’s son?
The M61 became the cannon fodder that Zaku II's are normally in other series. It makes sense. Feds had thousands of tanks in Odessa. But only 30 mobile suits. Generally Odessa was carried buy overwhelming numbers of ground units. Zeon knew they had a better advantage in space than ground combat. Thus the retreat to space and not south to Africa.
This is just a stretch but what if the Gundam EX is the main Universal Century's equivalent to the Origin's Gundam Local Type, especially the North American Type? Both got a shoulder-mounted Vulcan gun. Both got a contrasting color scheme that invokes different fears (Black and White, Terminator and Slasher). Both are feared on their respective fronts. (North American and European). Both are related to the RX-79 (G) (Local Type lead to the development of the Ground Gundams and EX has (G) in its model code).
Bruh i was looking for the kids name and now that i found out his name is Fenix now i can say r.i.p. Fenix or is he (foreshadowing) Edit: do the English to Japanese translator on Google it is what it says on Japanese subtitles Phoenix or Fenix same thing no difference so you can say the kids name in different ways but it will be the same
Dont pitty on Zeon. Look what they done to australia and entire neigbour country in SEA region. Australia are wipe out and neigbour SEA country being hit by tsunami.
Because it is WAR movies.... heck every gundam movies is WAR SPACE OPERA just like STAR TREK and STAR WARS you're definitely new In gundam don't you? This part of ONE YEAR WAR
how though? its not like the original 1979 gundam didn't try to portray Zeon as good people fighting for a cause(autonomy for spacenoidd) while the zabis used that motivator to push for spacenoid supremacy. This ain't like star wars where it is generally agreed that the empire are indeed the bad guys and they fight for an authoritarian regime ruled by sith lords and the dark side of the force, while those of the light side work for the republic or the rebellion. Good and Evil, meanwhile gundam is basically just war, both sides are neither right or wrong but to settle their differences they send soliders to come up with a conclusion because the victor gets to decide how history is written.
@@traphimawari7760 Lets not forget that b'strd Revill destroyed the best possibility of peace during the Antarctic treaty. He was a warmongering fed general. At least they agreed on weapons of mass destruction being outlawed.
It is not new and definately been around since the OG Gundam. The logic behinds it, is that Good people can exist in the " Bad Side". And vice versa, Bad People can exist in the "Good Side". Example being Bask Om and Jamitov.
No. it cant happen in the same timeline because Odessa happened differently in the original timeline. NONE of the evacuation ships survived in the original. Apsalus clearly didnt exist here because it is very hard to miss in the final battle
There was a mention of J type Zaku II's getting horribly destroyed during Odessa retreat becase the were ground types and had no AMBAC manouvering systems. But I'm sure most pods were recovered.
Apsalus never went to Odessa buddy.... you're mistaken it with another MA that brought there by M'Quve (Adzam) What weeds you smoking Story of 08th Team is taken on Asia
Best review on YT to date.
Seen too many comments being nit-picky about prodution qualities.
Plot armour is a bit obvious however.
I mean to be fair, plat armor characters ade not new to Gundam. With Jesus Kira being the main example.
@@RickyFSeieinot forgetting HEERO"ATTA BOY"YUY
I can't imagine you've seen other Gundam series if you think this one has plot armor.
@@ZeroDarkness-Heero the Goat of Self Detonation.
@@RickyFSeiei man survived a radiation beam, a literal nuke under his butt going off, and so much more. Still liked freedom

Ah yes. Good point.
Also quite similar to Slave Wraith Ground type Gundam as well
@@ZeroDarkness-
And the Pixie.
Kids die trying to be a good hearted guy
*kid dies being a shitty gundam pilot
War is hell for a reason.

The sad part is UC Engage (mobile game) did not list the shoulder-mounted machine gun as a weapon but listed an RPG instead...
Got the machine myself and used it. You are right. Loved to see the mini gun go brrrr

I really like this Gundam design. It has grown on me snd its such a menacing looking Gundam. This Gundam is literally The Terminator for Zeon Soldiers
RIP Legend Fenix. Fudge the zeon!
Absolutely brilliant!

I don't think Iria was the kid's mother
She literally saw his face and she had a photo of her son at the same age (probably taken few months ago when the war started and she sent him away)
@@orionhan2431basically same story like Fred from Slave Wraith that had son in Zeon Marchosias team
Yeah.. very grey area as to the relationship there.
If Fenix was her son the meeting would have been different. What mother would not recognize her son. And wasn't her son of a different name?
I think it was a misspell error from the video's subtitles. Iria's not the Gundam pilot's mother.
She literally had a ptsd induced dream showing her kid’s face. she even had a locket with her family picture. She even said her kid was in space, waiting for her to come home. when did the show imply the Gundam pilot was Iria’s son?
I didn’t know gundam EX was developed in 1978. It’s kinda old.
my biggest gripe with the show was that they tried to make Magella Attack look cool by making M61 super slow
The M61 became the cannon fodder that Zaku II's are normally in other series.
It makes sense. Feds had thousands of tanks in Odessa. But only 30 mobile suits.

I don’t know, I just had a mix emotion after watched the show
The characters look more like woke activists..
General Electric
still operational
In UC TIME LINE
Most badass mobile suit and it's piloted by a child..

So how many episodes of gundam are there to watch to get caught up ?
Well you technically don't need to be caught up on anything for this specific series.
Me watching the series : Nah, fudge the Zeons.
Would a J type preform better than the F type on Earth?
yes.
they are lighter, and have better cooling.
not a huge performance boost though
Dont pitty on Zeon. Look what they done to australia and entire neigbour country in SEA region. Australia are wipe out and neigbour SEA country being hit by tsunami.
Who was the kid?
The kids name who pilots the Gundam EX is: (Phoenix) or direct translation from Japanese (Fenix) hopes this helps and have a splendid day mate.
thx
just to add it is revealed as フィニックス in japanese subtitle
@@Gundam_Breakdowns thanks for providing the Subtitles JapanSci-Fi Breakdowns!
It felt just like a war movie ？😂 Right people holding guns and shooting at each other.
Because it is WAR movies.... heck every gundam movies is WAR SPACE OPERA just like STAR TREK and STAR WARS
you're definitely new In gundam don't you?
This part of ONE YEAR WAR
Zeon as the good guys seems weird.
They arent the good guys. Neither side are good or bad. Just people trying to not die. Literally the point of Gundam
More recently, we see good and bad people on both side. Sometimes forced to do horrible things just like in any war.
how though? its not like the original 1979 gundam didn't try to portray Zeon as good people fighting for a cause(autonomy for spacenoidd) while the zabis used that motivator to push for spacenoid supremacy.

What was??
No. it cant happen in the same timeline because Odessa happened differently in the original timeline. NONE of the evacuation ships survived in the original. Apsalus clearly didnt exist here because it is very hard to miss in the final battle
Are you talking about 08th ms team? If so that takes place after odessa and its in asia
Lot of ships survived operation Odessa. Igloo has a whole episode about the aftermath of Odessa and the recovery of the pods
