  "Kira Yamato seemed like all his other friends." Yeah, he looked like all his other friends too.

  I love the fact that alien fossils was discovered so alien life was confirmed is just a random footnote.

  As a wise man once said: "It takes more than pop idol, a twink, and 3 ships to end a war"

  Just to note at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lB1IOylliz4&amp;t=2630">43:50</a> - these aren&apos;t painkillers. The Boosted are wired up on extremely powerful and highly addictive stimulants, alongside a regime of other drugs and special implants to make them temporarily superior to Coordinators. They aren&apos;t just in pain, they&apos;re in potentially lethal withdrawal. The main reason the Boosted are such non-characters is that they are exactly what they say they are; Biological CPU&apos;s. The only personality traits their creators/maintainers care about are ones that make them more violent and destructive.

  <b>Lacus</b> was a diabolical mastermind in her quest for power: had her two male stooges, Kira and Arthun, clearing out all her enemies till she ends up the leader of the Plants...

  I feel like Kagali being Kira&apos;s sister was just a reference to Leia being Luke&apos;s sister in Star Wars as well as taking her out of the harem while explaining why they are friends but definitely not romantically interested in each other.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lB1IOylliz4&amp;t=1046">17:26</a> I suppose it depends on what you mean by &quot;underrated&quot;, in general Lacus has pretty consistently been one of the most popular female Gundam characters of all time, especially in Japan.<br>Also, the dub I watched as a young-un pronounced it &quot;Lack-us&quot;, and thus so do I.
