Shino missing was such a heartbreak. Cuz they set you up for one of the Top 10 most badass moments in the franchise. But, no.
It was actually one of the top 10 saddest. My girlfriend and I screamed when he missed.

Love this!!!!!
I've never actually seen Turn-A-Gundam, but I also do have a sweetspot for its intro for some reason even if I have no idea what's going on.
Well, more controversially, its second intro rather than its first.
Seems to be in a great spot to me. Bunch of new movies and stuff on the way. New SD series. Celebrating a 40th Anniversary. And if it wasn't popular in Japan, then I have no clue why there is so much merch over there for it. Send to have been a reasonable success all things considered.Is the franchise in a bad place right now?
I've only enjoyed it on a surface level ever since the 1990s, but I remember feeling legitimately underwhelmed with their most recent event's announcements. I also heard that Tekketsu-G isn't popular in Japan (even though I really liked it).
Yeah Turn A is definitely one of the greats. The freaky friday stuff between Kihel and Diana is soooooo good at times.
That scene when they are both on the orbital elevator and basically tag team a speech with most people being none the wiser gave me legit goosebumps back in the day. Of course all of the side-eyes where people are like "Wait which one I am talking to now?" never gets old either.
It's one of my favorite "gimmicks". And the way they play it out, and the gravitas of their respective positions at times, and how they wind up playing it out, is so good.
Not to mention the music. The 2nd end theme and the movie end theme in particular.

The nonvocal stuff is great as well, and I highly recommend giving the soundtracks a whirl.
I love how Gym tries to set up a dramatic sword fight and then Loran just instantly breaks the cheap old piece of shit katana he keeps twirling around. You realize just how pathetic the dude is.In Turn-A Gundam:
In the final fight, after Gym Ghingnham gave his entire whine about how it's not him, it's her, and how Lohan can never defeat him. Lohan turns his Gundam around, shouting "I'll defeat you" always give me goosebumps just thinking about it.
That scene puzzled me when I 1st saw it, "That was a little anti-climatic" I thought. However I recognised later the significance of it: it's a homage to 0079, the final fight between Amuro and Char.I love how Gym tries to set up a dramatic sword fight and then Loran just instantly breaks the cheap old piece of shit katana he keeps twirling around. You realize just how pathetic the dude is.
