When I see scenes or things like the above (large or small, of great and miniscule significane), I just laugh it off. I had come accross the idea called LOLTOMINO. In any case, a year after I watched these movies again and I found myself a lot more forgiving of the show’s out-of-place weirdness and gaps in logic. When I first saw this, I just got so mad! I think my writing still reads so mad.

Amuro had a hissyfit, stole the Gundam, and buried it in a hole in the middle of nowhere while having no other provisions nor plans beyond this. To recapitulate: Rape (of logic) is a good plot device. This arc is actually very good, and had lots of drama that grimly depicts the turns of human fates in time that feels captive to the whims of war. If he did find a town with a saloon (he did, and they did serve him… though he wouldn’t have to pay for it due to subsequent plot events) he had no means to purchase anything.Īnd what was the purpose of this histrionic display? It was a set up for a chance meeting with Ramba Ral and Hamon Crowley, a significant plot event. It is significant to note I think, that Amuro does not have local currency, if any money at all. Afterwards Amuro realized that he brought neither food nor water, so he had to wander the desert to find a town that will serve him. Now the cockpit of the Gundam is in its abdomen, so eitherĪ) Amuro dug the hole using the Gundam, then threw the big lug with his bare hands and filled the hole with his bare hands orī) Amuro dug the hole using the Gundam, and transformed into a sandworm like Leto II and crawled his way out of the hole and transformed back into a human again.Įither way, there was no way the RX 78-2 would be operable again because he would have either no access to the cockpit which would have been 9 meters buried in dirt, or if he did crawl out like a sandworm the cockpit would be filled and clogged with dirt. Not only did he steal the Gundam, he somehow dug a hole in the middle of the desert, and put the Gundam in it… completely vertically. It’s because Amuro ran away stealing the Gundam. But I’m telling you that neither examples ran away the same way Amuro ran away. In Soldiers of Sorrow (movie 2), Amuro Ray felt betrayed by Bright Noa and the rest of the crew (Bright said something to the effect that they shouldn’t let Amuro get big-headed by reminding him that he’s the only one who can pilot the Gundam), and ran away. I’ve said this before, but I think it merits repeating for the sake of my subject in this post:
