Gundam P2

The original Gundam series moves forward with the next batch of episodes as I watch the Blu-ray release for the first time. Char leaves a notable interest-hole (which is a phrase I just invented) but the addition of Ramba Ral as antagonist is at least a decent trade off… (note that as this is based off the English territories release, the real Episode 15 that only ever existed in Japan is omitted from the review due to… well, it not existing anywhere, and it makes it easier if I stick to the English numbering.)

Hopefully I’m back from a short hiatus, and I’ll be posting the reviews of the things that aired or I’ve watched in the past month in the next few days (I’ve kept reviewing Who and Blake’s 7 at least, so they should be caught up quite quickly once I get pictures!)

I loved it when I first watched it and picked up the blu-rays a year or two back, but wanted to wait until I was in the right mood and had forgotten as much as I could about the plot. Well, now is the time, I’m looking forward to charting my second journey with Edward and Alphonse Elric on this blog…

JJBA DIU 1

Only being previously familiar with Part III I find myself once again in the unknown of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, now with its fourth set of lead characters (minus the returning Jotaro, though he seemingly isn’t a frequent as the newer members of the cast). What kind of start does Diamond is Unbreakable get off to? Well, a bizarre one, funnily enough!
