Anno cooked with this one. All Zaku's are Bastards

Usual caveat that corporations aren't our friends, including Bandai Namco (Interpret This mario-finger Bandai Executives), Joyce's quote from Disco Elysium, etc. But I had the chance to see the preview movie in theatres and this show has got to be my most anticipated anime of the year so far.

I like the "alternate UC" setting they're playing with - it worked well for Gundam X (seriously any UC fan needs to watch Gundam X... and all anime fans need to watch the best anime of all time, Turn A Gundam), so I'm hopeful it could work well here.

Challia Bull showing up in this was spoiled for me, but I was fortunate enough to avoid seeing what he looked like. Definitely not what I was expecting lol.

protagonist gets dragged into situation where they end up killing two cops in first episode

I started an Andor rewatch in anticipation of season 2 and couldn't help but draw that comparison lol

One of those hits definitely wasn't a killshot, the other I'm not sure. The first one it shows the cop after the hit and then his cockpit goes dark, the second one was a headshot which generally isn't a killshot on a mobile suit.

I know it's a direct reference to Denim and Gene, but I think I'm just more hyped for Andor season 2 at this point lol.
