Gundam 79 was pretty chill and zeta was surely strange at some point but was among the lines. This anime is so fucked up that left me fucked up. From the higher message and the most powerful words to the fucking and disturbing scene of the baby drinking goat milk straight from the animal I dont know what the fuck is wrong with Tomino. Watching this anime was like seeing that bald skinny man enjoying some quality joint and blowing the smoke into the hardware or whatever is the place in PCs that makes anime. The thing is I loved it but to the extent it touched me and not in a generic drama way where you cry because a character youre supposed to love dies or shit like that. No. He kills a character and then youre stuck till the end of the show with no copying no acceptance no overcoming I mean I saw a woman that was calm and collected for 38 episodes screaming in the last 5 minutes of the 39th and last we can all die for all I care with a bottle in hand this thing is gonna haunt me forever because makes me realize this shit happen even without the magical three trucks or the samurai code following aliens. This anime is torture the kind of torture a person needs to grow up kinda like vegetables. Densetsu Kyojin Ideon is not a space odyssey but an exodus one in which the protagonists come to question their mission their role and their trust in the god it all starts with a mistake made by three parties and end with everyone crushing to the bottom line. Every character during the series has to abandon everything he/she has and in the end they cannot even count on themselves. I feel the ending was meant to be a positive note but its nothing more than reborn nothing of what is lost returns. Personally I cant bring myself to forget all the pain characters have experience in 39 episodes and the funny thing is that death is such a relief for most of them being free from relations duties and responsibilities. On a final note seriously Tomino what the hell is the deal with all those slaps there are some of them looped for a total of 6 slaps in barely 10 seconds they make this show so funny at times and I understand that theyre supposed to portray anger but thinking of it thoroughly one would be more than enough.
