Can we all just take a moment to admire the sublimity and otherworldliness of Von Braun, the first city built on the Moon in the Universal Century?
I think about this image every single day and how I'm also every person and object in it
how i think i look in my underpants vs. how i actually look in my underpants
Fun fact: Dr. Minovsky, the scientist responsible for revolutionizing warfare during the Universal Century, was almost named 'Tominovsky' as a nod to Mobile Suit Gundam's (1979-80) creator.
As a reminder, please always be your cool, unique self and talk about and write about and post about and dress up as and collect that thing you love. Be respectful to others and balance it appropriately in your life, but be your own voice behind something you think is cool

Me and Emily both went through the truly dire Chiaki Konaka-penned GR: Giant Robo as a part of our homework for this one. It's mostly just especially dull and rather poorly assembled, but we refer to the two standout moments from the 12th episode on this BFF and feel they're worth worth sharing.
Giant Robot FM@giantrobotfm.bsky.social · 2w agoA BIG FIRE CELEBRATION! @sundownmcmoon.bsky.social and @spacequeenemily.bsky.social stop by to discuss ep. 5 of Giant Robo! Both Ethan and Emily did a ton of research for the record (Water Margin, Tetsujin 28 [2004], etc), so if you need Yokoyama takes, this is the place! Become a patron to listen!
