A fighting game featuring giant mechs from various anime – although to my uncultured mind, this is a Megazord fighting game. In the story mode, each “episode” has some story before each fight, which is a nice touch.

Unfortunately, this is another dull beat-’em-up. The large mechs don’t really move like large objects, more like people moving in slow motion. The really poor levels also don’t make them come across as large machines, either, so the impact of fighting with giant mechs is just completely lost. The fighting itself is very generic as well, with a few moves and not much else. There is a hover mechanic, but it doesn’t amount to much.

This just seems like it was quickly put together to cash in on the various anime shows included in it.

There are plenty of options, such as a time attack and survival mode, and a couple of secret characters to find, but no amount of window dressing can disguise the fact that this is very average, and a waste of a fantastic license.

- Martin Kitts, N64 Magazine #20

Remake or remaster?

This doesn’t need much attention – although the concept done well in a new game would be great to see.

It's interesting that this time the main character has zero knowledge on how the gundam unlike amuro or kamille

I just finished reading the manga "Ganota no Onna", which is about a woman who is a Gundam otaku and is particularly obsessed with Char and all his red mobile suits.

Originally I read it because alas I Know What It's Like To Be That Girl, but it ended up having a surprising amount of yuri undertones, which I was NOT expecting.

To be clear, it's all played for jokes. It's not actually yuri, and the main character spends a lot of her time crushing on a dude (who hates Gundam). But there are a LOT of instances where the female characters suddenly end up in lesbian situations.

Multiple characters are also explicitly referred to as lesbians, either by other characters or by the narrative itself.

At one point, they even come out and say that all the Gundam fangirls in this comic... seem to like girls.

As I said, this is all largely played for humor, but there are some parts where there genuinely seems to be something going on between some of the women. The main character has some sort of tsundere thing going on with another woman (Makabe, shown below) and this goes on throughout basically the entire manga:

This is all deeply fascinating to me because an ongoing joke in English speaking Gundam fandom is that Char Aznable is some sort of lesbian icon to whom even many sapphics aren't immune, and I'm obsessed with the fact that this manga may be saying that is the case in Japan as well.

As for the comic itself, it's fun and worth a read if you like Gundam because there are multiple very funny Gundam references and jokes, and several Gundam characters make genderswapped cameo appearances. The ending is very abrupt and IMO kind of weird, but the rest was fun and while I would not call it yuri, you can absolutely ship some of the girls together since it really is very heavy on that.

Mostly I can't get over the fact that this entire manga seems to be joking about Char Aznable being an Unexpected Lesbian Icon because it's just funny to me how deeply universal that is.

Really funny that they probably chose oranges for this bit because they're easier to draw in large quantities but still had characters biting into them like IDK...apples
