I like the series version better for the head, clavicle area, and shoulders personally.

Astraea is a general-purpose MS though, since it is used as a testbed for various GN weaponry.

@@rx-105xigundam2 well chronologically after Astraea was build, Exia was developed later after Astraea but more focused on Close Range Combat with 7 Swords Style

@@rx-105xigundam2 what's the best astraea MG that includes P-Bandai?

@@kennethmana3103 Type-F

@@iJ3ff1n911 is this the one with all the weapons of the previous astraea?

agreed there is so much that can be said about the 00 machines

why is it your favorite? i mean.. if we erase the pilots entirely is it still your favorite?

Heat shotels, & yes. it only changes in endless waltz (to wing zero ew)

I think I won't...? It's basically unlimited contents for me lol

@@zethythonix also I know a while back gou said something like "sorry that the video is so long" I think that's one of the best parts of this series. Short or long they're all great but the longer ones hit extra nice 💯

I actually like Deathscythe

It shouldn't be too hard, I guess?

We are all gundam!

It's the way the character was written. He's not the star of the show nor does he stand out because he was written that way. No point changing something as fundamental as that. With regards to defense, the 4 other gundams already have enough defense from their gundanium. For the TV versions at least - they're practically invulnerable. Still, Sandrock's defense is more than what is necessary it becomes somewhat like luxury in excess. Like a VIP having additional defense for the sake of it. The point is that it's a pointless joke. Which I know may annoy you even more about the character. It's only a pity the character wasn't written the way you'd want him to be. That's the gist. There's nothing more to add on to that.

I am talking about the laser gun’s appearance for Sandrock use, I know it’s from the TV, I am explaining that Sandrock only use it in the GOL manga

I used that term for fun

I am so pissed that they didn't include the 2.0 parts in the original PB release

@@zethythonix 😅

​@@zethythonix BTW, you missed out on the video of 5th boy band, Wufie's Shen Long and Altron.

Endless Waltz versions are not necessarily better. The Endless Waltz versions have more effective weapons which can better kill other mobile suits and mobile dolls faster. However, the TV versions are better dualists - their weapons seem to require less ammo, their beam weapons can last longer, their equipment last longer, their armor is stronger, their suits are more brute force and for rugged use - the TV versions are built for lasting endurance and low maintenance.

@Keller Eclub So are the EW versions. The only real difference between the TV and EW is cosmetic which is what I was talking about.

@@korbinservergundam I get it now. You were only talking about appearances. Nothing more for me to add here.

Unfortunately, I must finish Shenlong when the rotation is back to Wing series, but I will definitely take a break from the Gundams in wing after Shenlong is done, so the grunts will shine for sure!

YES! Scheduled at around episode 35-ish

Videogames all operate under game rules which preserve game balance rather than care about lore. That's how you have advanced alien races engaging Terrans in videogames where Terrans even stand a fighting chance where in the lore they shouldn't.

SD G Generation games

Yes, will be in the big series like Zeta

That's EX-S Gundam from Sentinel...

@@zethythonix I know Ex-S has a Ai memory might be fuzz, but Ep17 of wing when sand rock about to self destruct was it program to let the pilot go while sand rock walk toward the Leos for self detonation?

That’s gonna be a long waiting

@@zethythonixAs long as it's coming i can wait.

It will have its chance, but not the recent 5 episodes

Yes, it's set 20 years after the OVA/Movie timeline

Battlefield of Pacifist, Glory of Loser (Manga version of the TV plot, but with Katoki designs), Frozen Teardrop (Novel based on 20 years after Endless Waltz), and G-Unit

@@zethythonix thanks so much man !

It's a pacifist suit. The melee is for its own defense. It was never meant to engage, but let the Magnacs and 4 other Gundams do the work instead. Try to see the Sandrock as a VIP lounge for Quatre. The character was written in a way to not make you care too much. He's like a +1. Somehow people's expectations is that all 5 gundams have to stand out as individuals but that's not how it works in real life. You don't always have 5, sometimes you have 4+1.

P bandai coming to your rescue boss.

what we need is more unused mobile suits, not more of the same ones weve seen repeatedly already. ::cough-zorin soul-cough::

I don't really look at it as being the weakest, but rather the toughest. It's focus is defense, which makes sense for a command role mobile suit. It can perform mission specific functions that the other units can't, such as defending a base or holding back an enemy force while the others complete their objectives. I believe it was designed with teamwork in mind. If you factor the Maguanac Corps into the equation, it quickly becomes the most formidable unit of the 5. Even by itself, it is still a very capable mobile suit for the reasons you outlined.

@@Shin_Lona yeah Sandrock is more like a Commander type Unit that also command his army to achieve victory

@@Shin_Lona Still, Sandrock's defense is more than what is necessary it becomes somewhat like luxury in excess. Like a VIP having additional defense for the sake of it. The 4 other gundams already have enough defense from their gundanium.

YOU CAN'T CHANGE MY MIND

Well, Quatre is the most sensitive compared to everyone, he didn't command very well in the beginning, but he got my respect when he broke the other faction's MD System

@@kellereclub3828 im not talking about OP weapon or armor. just a noticeable upgrade. even tallgeese2 upon a glance will you know its upgraded.

Well, what do you think of it now XD

@@zethythonix well, to be fair some of it has to do with its pilot, BUT.. its still flawed. why would you put a "command" unit (which i never REALLY thought of it as until your awesome video) on the field if it more or less had to be in melee range? its awesome that you were able to point out its strengths and that it almost makes sense (i never realized it had the additional defense).. actually it DOES make sense by the end of the series. i guess i just cant think of any instance in human history where the "command" units were on the very front line since.. maybe the anglo-zulu war?

@@megaflux7144 It's a pacifist suit. The melee is for its own defense. It was never meant to engage, but let the Magnacs and 4 other Gundams do the work instead.

@@kellereclub3828 no, it still doesnt make any sense. wouldnt a pacifist RUN AWAY? i seriously cant think of a more passive thing to do. now an assertive suit on the other hand.. but no. i do totally get what youre saying about letting the others do all the fighting, but it couldnt have a long range targeting mechanism or SOMETHING (maybe a way of absorbing another mechs damage or bolstering their damage output)? a pacifist would avoid combat at all costs, like avoid the area ENTIRELY. whats more if its going to have ANYTHING for self defense.. i would choose a gun. like.. its that simple. it could just knee cap other suits so they couldnt move instead of VIOLENTLY ripping them in half or taking their arms off (not a pacifist move).

@@megaflux7144 Things don't make sense to you now, so give yourself some time. Yea, he's not 100% pacifist. The driving factor is why wasn't the Sandrock suit made more offensive? There are massive underlining pacifist theme going on here. No, it's not about why you wouldn't choose a gun because it's a better defense weapon. You don't choose a gun because it's at the same time also a better offensive weapon. Big swords are a deterrent - enemy sees you from far with those swords, and still chose to engage you, then it's their choice to be slashed. You've done enough to warn them off. Some direct points to address. A pacifist wouldn't run away, that's not what Gandhi did. Quatre didn't avoid combat, and Quatre slashed through OZ suits for a reason. He was on mission. He had instructions. He hated what he was doing and what he needed to do, and knew that it was necessary to achieve a better outcome. He had a responsibility.
