Just like people are accusing me of being a "Super X Japanophile!!!" but I'm really not.
But that dude almost made that show into hentai, which left a bad taste in my mouth.

Its an unfortunate truth that if there are female characters, and occasionally in their absence, just about everything has been made into porn or at least had a few dirty pictures. Mai-otome is no exception.
There is nastier stuff out there. I'll bet you money PPG has some pictures on the internet. I know there is way too much official and unofficial street fighter erotica for my taste. Simpsons? Yeah. Betty boop? If you printed all the dirtyness she's managed to acquire over the years and stacked it on someones chest, it would crush them to death. I blame jessica rabbit.
Its bad but its one of those things thats gonna continue.

gundam seed references, actually, like the entire final battle is two peopel flying around in outer space and the ncrashign back down to earth, liek the ending to seed.
I think they're made by the same studio, and it was done on purpose.

Ugh. I kind of hate SEED. I bet the Japanese version is good, but when it was dubbed, it was hacked to pieces with edits. There was only 1 combat scene per 3 episodes, on average. What the fucks up with that?
Also, on a funny note, the characters who play Athrun Zala and Kira Yamato in the American version of SEED also play Ed and Eddy on "Ed, Edd, and Eddy".

Char, would you hate me if I told you that, for some reason that I cannot really explain, enjoyed the street fighter gundam? Ya know, the one where every nation had their own national stereotype gundam, unless the country in question was not particularly interesting, then its damn near random? And they would all fight in a tournament?

G Gundam is teh awesome. Neo Mexico's Gundam is damn offensive too (Neo Cuba ain't half bad either).

I actually liked G Gundam, too. Granted it was over the top, but sometimes you need that. After seeing SEED, a show that was completely wrapped up in it's own hyperdramatic shit, fail miserably, I think that a little corniness is needed.
That, and Master Gundam fucking rules.

there's a fine line between goofiness and stupidity.
G gundam drew that line.

Yeah, but it was really good, and at the times when it did get stupid, it was damn funny.
Tequila Gundam all the way!

Deep in the netherlands:
"what the fuck is this?"
"Its the new gundam design, it uses the power of disguise and it can conjures a hurric-"
"Its a fucking windmill. This, this is unacceptable. We are not taking over the world with a windmill. Think of something better. What else do we know about the netherlands? Come on! We live here, we can do this."
"Let me run some alternate ideas we created. So...this here is tulip gundam. And here is clog gundam. And this here is the shell oil company gundam."
"Dear god our country sucks, do you have anything else?"
"Well, this one was my idea. This here is Gogh gundam. He uses strong brushstrokes with vibrant colors...OF PAIN! Oh, and his special attack, starry night, rips off the ear of the gundam to create a deadly projectile! So... Whaddya think?"
"Huh, so the windmill creates hurricane force winds?"

They actually had waaay more of those windmill Gundams that they used as an attack force.
Brush strokes? Like Bob Ross Gundam?

Technically he does say hand when he's doing that battle cry.
"This hand of mine glows with an awesome power! It's burning grip tells me to defeat you! Take this! MY LOVE, MY ANGER, AND ALL OF MY SORROW! SHINING FINGER!"
