I fell in love with mezi, gunpla thanks SD Gundam G Generation Eternal

Summary

• Gundamian games provide an engaging lesson in history on franchise, ideal for new fans

• SD Gundam G Generation Eternal demonstrates the complexity of alternative time axes.

• Saikoro Gundam is stupid as a hell. And super cool.

I never considered myself “giant robots”. Sure, I had some Transformers as a child. But when there was an anime, the farthest I got into the mezi genre, she was a subversion Neon Genesis Evangelion. So consider my surprise when I recently came across a list of the most important mobile games and I saw the title Light-Novel ISEKAI SD Gundam G Generation Eternal directly at the top.

Game Gundam? Best Grossing? Despite Gacha with Waifus, Gokus and Raid: Shadow Legends? Call it intrigue or morbid fascination.

Maybe I was bored. Recently unemployed and stuck at home with what I wasn't supposed to do, I was looking for hobbies that employ me.

I knew a little that SD Gundam G Generation Eternal would lead me down the endless rabbit hole Gunpla, alternative timelines and too much thinking about the brand.

Start the thematic song; We have Gundam to discuss.

Sd gundam g generation eternal and gundam deep dive

It can be said with certainty that I was for the first time outside my league game. I'm at least an anime fan, so I know a little about Gundama from a purely historical level. How could I not? Not only is it one of the originals in the genre of Mecha, but Gundam was also one of the first breakthrough anime of success in the West. But I would lie if I said the knowledge had extended the past because he knew what the OG RX-78-2 looks like.

It's like jumping to the deep end of the pool. Color Me Sotled, but SD Gundam G Generation Eternal actually depends on providing new fans like me, a lesson of history.

After you got through the game teaching, you will finally get some options and all the pitfalls that come with the opening of the mobile game for the first time. What I played is engaging, though not always intoxicating, RPG tactics, where you will move the chibi version of every mobile suit around the grid. With explosions, long cutscenes and lots of fan services.

After all, it is based on anime.

After the tutorial wrapped up, you dropped the main meat of SD Gundam G Generation Eternal. The focus of the game will land on its story -based mode, in which players dive deep into every entry in the Gundam One series after a second.

By the way, I had no idea that Gundam had the entire alternative timeline. Fortunately, the main stage regime apparently clearly clearly and Lore Bomb player in a way that I wish would be more games. After choosing your era you will get a vignette explaining story, all, while voice, music and clips from each show will set the stage.

As a newcomer in the world of Gundam, it did a great job when he made me learn more. All the time it made me realize that I had the misconceptions of Gundam-I always assumed that because it came out at the end of the 70s. It was a cheap toy in the spirit of Gi Joe or Transformers.

No. It's the horror of war, all the way down. Allusion to 'cool! Giant robot! “Meme.

Giant robot 101: War – and Gundam – will never change

One of the many things that SD Gundam G Generation Eternal does so well is to go through the personalities not only of big robots, but from the time every suit comes. Final attacks from SSR suites are lengthy and full of splendor, unlike Evoke from the final fantasy.

And you know what? I love a big explosion. There are several other unnecessary, but just like Rad Explosions. When you go through a piece of story mode of each show, you get a lot of them – along with pathos to introduce.

He realized that the tropics and jokes of the giant Robot genre came from anywhere to make many things click for me. As if you come back and watch Dragon Ball of Just to realize that the so much of the genre of Shōnen stems from Goko's adventures, this realization also shines after meeting with the protagonist Og Gundam Amuro Ray.

Huh. I think Shinji Ikari He wasn't just an unpleasant little nerd with dad problems.

When I continued on the way Gundam in the game of the game, I realized something dark.

God. Is Gundam fine? Gundam is fine. I have to tell the world. Obviously, I'm the first person to have ever discovered. It wouldn't be more than a few days after my first invasion of SD Gundam G Generation Eternal that the real addiction began … Purchase Gunpla.

Build a giant robot, shinji

I grew up with model storage cars, so maybe jumping into building Gundam's mobile suits was not the biggest jump. This means that on the day I found myself in Barnes & Noble, looking at the gigantic wall of Gundam's robotic sets, he felt like the continuation of my childhood. I was nervous about choosing something too difficult, I went with one that I knew: Air suit from Gundam: Witch from Mercuru-Robot, which I pulled from Gachy in the game just before.

Synergy is sometimes amazing.

I hit, cut off my fingers, and swore to all-Japanese instructions, but in a few days I had a model. But that wasn't enough. I compared my work with other models built by much more experienced fans on Reddit and I found my air ray … missing.

If you are building GUNPLA sets, you do not work on the nipples. Believe me.

Suddenly it is 2 o'clock in the morning and I am on Amazon, looking at the panel lining and wondering how fast the upper coat spray can arrive in my house. My life took over a new hobby, everything because I downloaded a mobile game about robots.

Now I have thoughts about the feelings of RG Sazabi and whether the stickers on the water slip for effort (not).

I know what Saikoro Gundam is … and that's the last sign that he won't come back. As soon as you understand the consequences of the giant head of the robot attached to an even larger six -sided cube, we will not go back.

Sing a thematic song! Fly! Gundam! Fly!

I would never expect to develop love for almost fifty -year -old franchise, all of the download of the mobile game during a bout boredom. But this is also what I like about the discovery of new hobbies and interests, as I get older.

I wonder about Gundamo ten years ago? What about 20 years ago? Will I care in the next ten? Who knows. But I am grateful for SD Gundam G Generation Eternal for providing an open door to a world that I did not know about only six months.

Now, if you excuse me … I have to convince my local merchant Gunpl to hold the upcoming mobile suit Gundam Gquuuuuux before everyone sells out.
