Get in the Gundam, Domon.
On this episode, join hosts Dennis, Diana, Ed, Karen, Kate, and returning guest Mike Lee as we discuss Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team, episodes 1-4. As we return to the Universal Century and the One Year War, of course we had to get some experts here with Diana and Mike. Other topics include folding chairs in space, Gundam character types, why Karen is great, Earth Federation ranks, some rough Zeon hair, Waymo for Gundams, and a lot more. Unfortunately, the beginning of this episode suffers for some mic issues, but it is eventually remedied before we get into the main discussion. So just bear with it for the first 30 minutes if you can, or skip to the production notes chapter. Special thanks to Mike Lee for joining us again for another Gundam episode! 0:00:00 - Intro & Some Anime News 0:12:44 - The Watchlist 0:38:54 - 08th MS Team Production Notes 0:59:48 - EP01: War for Two 1:24:31 - EP02: Gundams in the Jungle 1:43:36 - EP03: The Time Limit on Trust 2:04:06 - EP04: The Demon Overhead 2:37:49 - Voices, Final Thoughts, & Kanpai Unfortunately, Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team is currently out of print at the time of this podcast, but you can still support us by donating through our Ko-Fi link below!

The duo playfully banters about their own backgrounds in the Gundam lore, with Christian having a wealth of knowledge while TJ admits to being a bit of a newbie.

Christian's enthusiasm for the rich narrative history shines through as he explains pivotal events like the One Year War and the rise of mobile suits, all while keeping the conversation light and engaging through witty remarks and humorous exchanges with TJ. By the end of their discussion, listeners are left pondering their own allegiances in this epic saga, as the hosts encourage them to reflect on the deeper meanings behind the battles fought in space and the human experiences that drive them.Takeaways: The Universal Century timeline of Gundam is intricate and spans various conflicts and factions, making it a rich subject for discussion.

The crew is back with a double-feature this week and they're kicking off with After War Gundam X's Garrod Ran! While most other Gundam pilots can be listed as men of destiny or Newtypes chosen to lead times to a new era, Garrod was just simply a kid - surviving in a world recovering from war. This week Dee, Jay & LJ dive into all of the reasons why Garrod should be one of Gundam's move favored pilots and Bandai's role into why Gundam X is overlooked nearly 30 years later.

It's A Gundam! is back in full swing, taking a look at the series that started it all: Mobile Suit Gundam. How does it feel to watch a show that's 45 years old? What characters' names did Zach think Geremy had been making up this entire time? And perhaps most importantly of all, the question is, will we survive?

Show Notes This week in the first of our Season 10 extra research episodes, Nina explores the long history of diapers around the world and in Japan to better understand the subtext and significance of Karlmann's cloth diapers. Please listen to it! Mobile Suit Breakdown is written, recorded, and produced within Lenapehoking, the ancestral and unceded homeland of the Lenape, or Delaware, people. Before European settlers forced them to move west, the Lenape lived in New York City, New Jersey, and portions of New York State, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Connecticut. Lenapehoking is still the homeland of the Lenape diaspora, which includes communities living in Oklahoma, Wisconsin, and Ontario. You can learn more about Lenapehoking, the Lenape people, and ongoing efforts to honor the relationship between the land and indigenous peoples by visiting the websites of the Delaware Tribe and the Manhattan-based Lenape Center. Listeners in the Americas and Oceania can learn more about the indigenous people of your area at https://native-land.ca/. We would like to thank The Lenape Center for guiding us in creating this living land acknowledgment.

Phillip and Eric break down the Boom! Studios sci-fi comic, We Only Find Them When They're Dead by Al Ewing and Simone Di Meo. They discuss the series's unique concept and gorgeous illustration impaired by structural issues with its storytelling, its striking cover designs, and Eric chides Phillip for not making the time to watch crappy Gundam movies but not Andor.
C'mon. He's just a little mecha! Also it's his birthday, he's a little birthday mecha! The Stuka/Goblin fills a niche I didn't realize I needed: short, chunky mobile suit. What IF a Zaku only came up to the Gundam's chest? What IF you could barely see their legs from all that waist skirt? Kazuhisa Kondo remains an underappreciated genius of Gundam design.

Having protagonists get trapped in video games has been a popular anime premise in recent years. What would getting trapped in a Gundam video game look like? Isaac takes us into the world of Kenji Everybody who is trapped in a Gundamized Final Fantasy via a mishap with a bottle of Ramune that leads to a jaunt across timelines with Gaia Gear technology and battles with AI. Brian takes a completely different path with Gundam Survivor which is essentially a One Year War trauma simulator that's equal parts MK Ultra, Battle Royale, and Hatchet. What kind of Gundam video game would you like to get trapped in (or trap someone in)?
Today we finally wrap up talking about the various Universal Century OVAs, rank the Mobile Suits from Star Gazer, take listener questions, and last but not least, announce what we're doing next for the podcast.
The bike's charged, the skies are blue and the open road is calling.... there's one issue: there's seemingly only two women left to burn rubber and explore it! After leaving their bunker, Youko and Airi set out to retrace Yuoko's sister's footsteps by following her old social media... Why were they in a bunker? What happened to everyone else? Why are penguins so adorable? These are questions we hope to answer as we read Touring After the Apocalypse by Sakae Saito!This week, Mat is joined once again by Tom to cancel the apocalypse by reading a manga that's got enough going for it to make us gush over the art, but also enough uncertainty for us to dance around saying anything truly negative. With the release of the Manga's recent anime adaptation, we thought now was the right time for us to hit the open road and read the first volume! But the questions as always is, will we like what we see enough to carry on the journey?---=== Show Notes ===Similar Manga:Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou by Hitoshi Ashinano Girl's Last Tour by TsukumizuVideo Games:Nier Automata (I'm not linking The Sims...)Locations:Tokyo Big Sight's Big Escalators!Hakone's Pirate Ship Cruise over the lake!The Monorail the girl's use as a bridge!The Life-sized Gundam in Odaiba Thanks to Juliano Zucareli for our theme music!Find us on:X: Manga Tak PodBluesky: Manga Tak PodInstagram: Manga Tak Pod

Tune in as Dee, Jay & LJ give their thoughts on the growth of the anime movie industry in the U.S. before they unpack Loran's growing empathy between his people - the Moonrace - and the people of the Earth, along with how changes in the Yoshiyuki Tomino himself led to Turn A Gundam's impact on Gundam as a whole.

In 1989's MSG 0080: War in the Pocket, Zeon's Lt. Col Killing orders Col. Von Hellsing to nuke the Side 6 colony known as Libot after the Cyclops team failed to destroy the Federation's new prototype Gundam via conventional means. As luck would have it, the Federation captured Von Hellsing's ship before the nukes could launch and spared Libot from annihilation. In this episode, we discuss what might have happened if Killing's plan to nuke Libot was successful. Brian sees this as an early version of Operation Stardust that inadvertently gives rise to a much earlier showdown between the Titans and Axis Zeon in the asteroid belt. Isaac sees an occupied Zeon with its people forced to choose a side, with factions like the Crossbone Vanguard, the Zanscare Empire, and the Jupiter Empire rising earlier. Plus, we wonder if AI and nanotech should qualify as WMDs; find out what happened to Lt. Col Killing; and argue about asteroid lasers and hot lava missiles! Welcome to Alfred's Nightmare!
This week, the hosts turn up the heat with G Gundam's hot-blooded hero, Domon Kasshu: the man who screamed and fought his way into Gundam history. Dee, Jay and LJ look back on Gundam's 15th anniversary anime that shook the entire format of the series itself by being one of Gundam's most divisive shows. Tune in as the hosts give their thoughts on the current Fall/Winter '25 anime season and upcoming anime releases in 2026, as well as the difficulties of being a Gundam manga fan in the US, before diving into different takes on the highs and lows that Domon brings to the Gundam franchise both as a character and as a Mobile Fighter pilot.

I guess I would describe the Radiant Wave Surger as having both "the power" and "the touch." And it certainly gets "ready for battle."

They talk about how you shouldn't let anime pile up for too long in your backlog & how much they've enjoyed watching Gundam regularly again, before getting straight to this week's topic. The hosts explore Mika's bond with Orga, the brutality of his battles with Gundam Barbatos, and the ethical weight of fighting only for protection and survival.

Hey, everybody—it's Monday, September 29, and this is your Monday Motivation Podcast by FWACATA.What's up, heathens? You sweaty, creative masses of chaos? Yeah, that thing that happened—wild, right? I mean, I don't know what happened, because I pre-recorded this. But thanks to the internet's nonstop firehose of madness, I'm sure something insane just went down. So now it sounds like I know what's happening. See how that works? “Dude, did you SEE that shit?” Boom. Timeless.Anyway. Welcome back to the other Monday Motivation—the one where we drag your creative bird out of bed, slap it around a little, pour some coffee on it, and shove it back into the ring.Today's episode? Creative Reboots.Restarting stalled projects with fresh energy.Here's a confession: I have drawers—literal drawers—of half-finished comics, folders of “someday novels,” Google Docs of script fragments, and sketchbooks that look like serial killer ransom notes. Every time I open them, these projects look up at me like, “Bro, remember us? You abandoned us like a Tamagotchi in '98.”We all have them. Projects that start hot—burning like first love—and then three weeks later you're wondering: Why the hell did I think a 400-page Gundam-meets-Full-Metal-Jacket-meets-Mad-Max comic was a good idea? (Spoiler: it wasn't. But I still tried.)Creative projects are like relationships. They start steamy. You doodle hearts around their name. Then reality shows up like a chaperone at prom, and you're sitting in the corner with your unfinished script, not even getting to second base.So what do you do? How do you reboot?Look at your project like it's someone else's. Pretend you found it in a thrift store. What's cool about it? What sucks? Sometimes distance gives you fresh eyes. Go get a coffee. Go stare at a wall. Hell, go smoke a cigarette if that's still your thing. Come back. You'll see it differently.Maybe the project stalled not because it sucks—but because you made it too damn big. Instead of a 400-page epic, make it a 12-page comic. Instead of a novel, a short story. Instead of a film, a TikTok. Give yourself permission to shrink it. Small wins build momentum.If you're stuck, switch the medium. Writing on a laptop? Try pen and paper. Painting with acrylics? Try markers, charcoal, Photoshop—hell, carve it into a potato if you have to. Creativity thrives on novelty. Sometimes the project isn't stuck—you are.Ask yourself: Why did I start this? Was it the story? The character? The mood? Go back to the original spark. I make soundtracks for my projects—yeah, actual playlists. When I hear certain songs, I remember what I wanted the story to feel like, and suddenly, boom—the fire's back.A reboot doesn't mean you finish it tomorrow. It means breathing life back into it. One sketch. One page. One note. That's CPR for your project.Look—unfinished doesn't mean failed. It just means paused. You can hit “play” again anytime. And if it really is dead? That's okay too. Bury it, honor it, and move on. Not every sketch becomes a masterpiece. But every sketch leads somewhere.So this week: dust off one stalled project. Give it a reboot. Look at it with new eyes. Shrink it down. Switch your tools. Reconnect with your why. Do something. Anything. And maybe, just maybe, that creative corpse gets back up and dances.That's it for today's Monday Motivation.

There's no identity crisis to be had here, because this show has long since extended its reach past just mecha... but these machines don't have pilots! They are remote controlled though, which is certainly a kind of piloting. It's a pedantic distinction, but it can be fun to consider how the categorization works out. The machines of Robot Alchemic Drive seem a-okay to me. A real shame the Gllang apparently sucks, it's sick. I did a bad job of giving credit on the ep- this was a request from listener Baavetti! Thank you so much for the request! You can find a video version of this podcast for free on Scanline Media's Patreon!

Show Notes A quick update on our work behind the scenes as we prepare for Season 11. Mobile Suit Breakdown is written, recorded, and produced within Lenapehoking, the ancestral and unceded homeland of the Lenape, or Delaware, people. Before European settlers forced them to move west, the Lenape lived in New York City, New Jersey, and portions of New York State, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Connecticut. Lenapehoking is still the homeland of the Lenape diaspora, which includes communities living in Oklahoma, Wisconsin, and Ontario. You can learn more about Lenapehoking, the Lenape people, and ongoing efforts to honor the relationship between the land and indigenous peoples by visiting the websites of the Delaware Tribe and the Manhattan-based Lenape Center. Listeners in the Americas and Oceania can learn more about the indigenous people of your area at https://native-land.ca/. We would like to thank The Lenape Center for guiding us in creating this living land acknowledgment.

In which we ask, why does Lady Une keep taking important phone calls in front of prisoners?
Oh, those early episodes where our methodology was woefully incomplete. Yes, we left a bit of a mess back then. Mentioning the base Reginlaze then nothing else! Foolish.

At long last, after podcasting for 8 years and counting (wow...), we have finally gone and done it; we're reviewing some Mobile Suit Gundam. Since we are very sensible and reasonable folk at TIA, we thought we would start at the very beginning. Just kidding, we picked an entry that sounded interesting to us after Austin and Bill had independently been dabbling in various Gundam entries for the past several years. Although to be fair, some people claim that the OVA we're reviewing in this episode, Mobile Suit Gundam: 08th MS Team, is a solid entry point into the franchise for beginners, but is that actually true? Let's test that theory! We're happy to welcome Coop back to the show! Coop has been on the show a number of times to talk about anime conventions, but never to actually review a series with us before. As a giant robot aficionado, we could think of no better friend of the show to have on for our first leap into the world of Gundam. Coop regularly writes for Anime News Network, including the weekly This Week in Anime Column, and contributes to releases from Discotek and AnimEigo. Check out Coop's work, social media, and podcasts here! Have you seen 08th MS Team? What do you think of it? Does it live up to the hype? Do you think it's a good entry point to Gundam or not? Let us know by sending us an email at thirdimpactanime@gmail.com and we'll discuss it on the show. If you enjoy this or any other episode, leave us a Rating and Review on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or elsewhere!

We made a promise four years ago. ...Well, to be honest, it was more a proposal than a promise. I didn't exactly feel oathbound. Which to me makes this more important. We weren't bound by obligation. We just really wanted to have Grant (mynameisgrant.bsky.social) back on the show, and talk about the meat mecha of the Aura Road. And y'know? I'm so glad we did. You can find a video version of this podcast for free on Scanline Media's Patreon! Please check out our wonderful guest Grant's work: you can find their SeaQuest DSV podcast WSKRS and their TTRPG actual play podcast Six Feats Under on your podcatcher of choice, as well as their Let's Play work on YouTube as the Ironicus half of Chip & Ironicus over at ChipCheezumLPs!
