Mechinations

Join Ignis for another Mini Episode as he tackles Episode 41 of Mobile Suit Gundam, but not before chatting a bit about some of the third person action games he played over holiday break. In the episode dissection proper, Ignis wrestles with who has access to what information, considers the source when receiving proclamations of character, and appreciates what was accomplished visually despite the crunch to get to the end.

Ignis is joined this week by Meg (@fay0ra on twitter) to discussion this newtype-stravaganza! After introducing the cohost, together they tackle the vibes from the Char/Lalah relationship and how that doesn't seem to interfere with the shift in priorities for the show. They are dismayed at the Magnetic Coating upgrades at the Gundam, but tickled at the way everyone harasses Lalah for her big smock.

After some behind the scenes cleanup, Ignis is here to get us through the TEXAS ZONE Its not all stampedes and ten gallon hats (actually its none of the latter) as we enter into the Newtype portion of First Gundam's plot in earnest. Amuro's pure psychic abilities are the only possible explanation for what happens in the course of battle this week (at least according to Char!) We also finally get some insight into the truth behind Char and Sayla's past, which truly has been a long time coming. Episode 37 Summary/Thoughts: 2:55 Episode 38 Summary/Thoughts: 14:02 Intro Disc: None, gotta spend that time explaining what's up with the format of the pod! Speaking of which, this is the perfect time to contribute; with all the extra space, Ignis has plenty of opportunity to read listener feedback or comments or reviews on air! Hit us up on Twitter @MechinationsPod, email us at MechinationsPod@gmail.com, or leave a review with Apple Podcast! Do that, and Ignis will read it on the show! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/mechinations/support [https://anchor.fm/mechinations/support]
