Gundam 00 Movie

Someone asked in my last post if I wore wigs daily.  I don't.  My hair is still thick enough to use, but it's very thin.  It's too thin to style, so I usually wear it down.  It's also too thin for bangs, and I'm afraid of dying or bleaching it.  That's why I wanted the TaoBao wig for daily wear. It's a lighter brown than my hair and it has bangs.


 

It used to make me very nervous, but I've accepted it for the most part.

Main reason for this post: I was clogging up Twitter by constantly posting about the Gundam 00 movie, so I decided to do that here.  Lots of points, but it's a long movie. Summary: most of it had me shaking in fear (not quite because it was scary, but because it hit pretty much all of my phobias at once) but it got better.  The doorknob scene made me shake for a while. It's the same type of handle that my bedroom door has, too. The movie wasn't that great, though.  It felt more like Macross without singing than a Gundam series.



  1. I liked the bad subtitles during the movie scene, gSS.  I was really annoyed, until the scene ended and I realised the whole film wouldn't be done in joke subs. 
  2. Lol, Marina.  I think you're better suited to being called Virgin Mary 2.0.  You're really big on pacifism.  Lacus is big on having Kira blow up people that don't agree with her.
  3. D: I have had recurring nightmares about being in subway accidents since I can remember.  
  4. OH FUCK THE DOORKNOB SCENE. THERE IS NOT ENOUGH D: IN THE WORLD.
  5. OH FUCK, LOUISE, RUN LOUISE RIBBONS IS RIGHT THERE, RUN.
    1. FUCK HE DOESN'T DIE WHEN HE GETS SHOT. PAIR OF WALKING LEGS. D: 
  6. I also have nightmares about accidents involving helicopter rotors and human bodies. 
  7. Oh, the evil metal fragments are aliens. Hostile alien invasion is one of my greatest phobias. Fucking hell, you're hitting all my fears.   You just need a streetcar to hit someone.
  8. I will not sleep tonight. Fuck you, Gundam. I don't like you with aliens. Leave those to Macross. Give me humans killing each other so they can prove war is bad or some backwards message like that.
  9. Feldt, I hope your crush works out this time.  Also, I still suspect you of being an Innovator or Innovade because you have funny-coloured hair.
  10. Alle, that ponytail is hideous.  Marie's hair is cute, though.  Halle, why are you so much cooler than Alle?
  11.  The Haros' "Multiplied. Multiplied" reminds me of Moyashimon.
  12. Holy shit.  This is scaring me more than anything I've watched recently.  Fuck you Gundam, I came in here expecting campy fight scenes with Graham, stupid quotes like "Ai habu controru" and "Ore wa gundam da", and NAKAMA talk. Seriously, no anime has freaked me out like this.
    1. Actually, Sachiel did scare me a lot the first time I watched EVA.  But that was a specific character, not the general anime. 
  13. Ughhh the aliens can also take over their missiles why did I decide to like this why is it so different from the rest of the series?
  14. Tieria, I love you, please keep killing all the aliens. 
  15. Mina is Nena, right?  Or was Nena secretly an Innovade?
  16. Lol, Marie. "They're so inconsiderate!" Because "inconsiderate" is a perfect word to use to describe aliens taking control of everything metal to kill people. 
    1. Alle: They just don't understand us. THEY'RE FUCKING SENTIENT METAL SHARDS. I DON'T THINK HUMANS AND METAL SHARDS FROM SPACE CAN UNDERSTAND EACH OTHER.
  17.  The Great Red Spot is now a black hole that is somehow able to suck in everything EXCEPT Jupiter itself. Really, Sunrise? Really?
    1. Oh great, it's actually the alien fleet. 
  18. "95 days" is a much more relaxed deadline than anime's usual "three days" or "one week". 
  19. Fuck, I can't watch the scenes where the ELS (metal aliens) take over a body. 
  20. It's not Gundam without floating naked pilots in space.
  21. Ahaha, Graham started philosophically lecturing Feldt and then called her "shounen".  
  22. These things really are an upgraded version of the Vajra.  Hive mind, only people with a certain type of brainwave can communicate with them. 
  23. Oh, death flag just went up for Patrick. :( I like that couple.  Kill off Billy instead.  He's creepy.
    1. Oh, Andrei's there.  Kill Andrei, ELS.  I'm still mad at him about Sergei.
    2. Oh, another death flag for Pat. ;_;
    3. Oh fuck, he's going to sacrifice himself for Kati, isn't he?
    4. HE'S SAFE. It looked like he was going to die, but it was just a setup for TEAM PATRICK'S BLASTING OFF AGAIN! 
      1. So is Andrei. 
  24. Great Earth, you just upgraded the ELS.
  25. Oh god, that's all I needed, a shot of Chris and Lichty embracing, frozen and floating in space. ;_; 
  26. ;_; First Lockon is telling Setsuna "I wasn't able to change, so change in my place." This is what set me off.  Now I'm crying. 
  27. Okay, seeing the room full of floating tears made me laugh a little.  That's so ridiculous, Sunrise. 
  28. Trans GrahAm! This is why I downloaded this group's subs.
  29. ;-; Grahamster, don't die. GRAAAAHAAAAAAAM ;_;
  30. Center of the ELS looks like an Angelic Pretty print.  
  31. OH LOOK THE ALIENS ARE HOPING FOR INSTRUMENTALITY. Now it's trying to be EVA, too.  You're Gundam, not EVA or Macross.  
    1. AND SETSUNA'S EVEN GOT A FUCKING FOLD WAVE. 
  32. Oh, Setsuna turned the ELS into a giant flower in space. That's, uh, nice.
  33. That ending was both campy and touching.  Setsuna's Gundam was covered in flowers, and Setsuna is shiny.

    I said the exact same thing to my friend when I watched it. It was pretty much frontier. But it was funny to watch so I'm not complaining much XDDDD the subs were soooo bad though

  2. My hair is really thin too D:
    I gave up on Gundam a long time ago... if the movie's like Macross, I don't think I really want to watch the movie lololol

  3. I still have the same fear of wearing wigs out, because I have very recognizable long black hair and people will definitely notice if I wear a light brown one :/
