Mobile Suit Breakdown: the Gundam Podcast

Show Notes It's time for everyone's favorite convention: the Ameria Colony Guillotine Fest! Bring the kids on down, it's fun for the whole family! On this episode we discuss what makes a Char, the Uso Cycle and the Big Sister with a Thousand Faces, narrative imperatives, and how we're each of us getting what we want out of Victory (despite some quibbles). 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.

Show Notes This week on MSB, we visit Barcelona and find that the Catalan independence movement may well have gotten what it wanted, even if it took until the Universal Century. Plus Uso doesn't know what kind of episode he's in, Duker Iq's globe-spanning influence becomes apparent, Fuala belongs on the runway, and Thom wants to know what exactly Uso meant when he said that 'League Militaire' means 'Holy Alliance in ancient Roman'.

Show Notes This week on Mobile Suit Breakdown: it's the end of this first era of SD Gundam! In lieu of research, we cast our minds back across all the SD shorts that we've [enjoyed|endured] to render a final verdict on it and discuss what we liked about it, which ones we'd recommend, and what it all meant for the Gundam franchise.

Show Notes No break in the MSB action this time around as we dive immediately into Season 9 with research from Nina on 'toy' guns: air guns, BB guns, and especially airsoft guns, inspired by Al's friends in War in the Pocket. How does the history of airsoft connect with the development of "real" guns both in Japan and around the world? How is airsoft affected by Japan's notoriously stringent gun-control laws, and what does it really mean to 'play' war games? And could you put your eye out with that thing? Show notes are available on our website. 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.
