     While I’m shitting on recent productions the gundam aerial fights all sucked ass, I’m honestly amazed they put out that show because it’s so totally forgettable.

     Imagine going back after unicorn dropped and thinking “you know what the fans REALLY want? More beam-spamming funnel suits blowing away unarmed melee enemies!”

     @WashedOutGundamPilot I think it's funny how in anime, "prototype" means the most powerful and badass weapon ever, whereas in real life "prototype" means "buggy piece of shit that barely works long enough for a demonstration"

     @caekislove I like how the hathaway movie admitted that, when the capsule gets shot down with all the spares and support equip they freak out because they KNOW it’s gonna be hard to keep a 1/1 machine operational

     @MemeLandfill The timeline is supposedly 0083, so it makes sense why it has a few courtesy elements to force it into the timeline. The only part that works, really.

     @caekislove In gundam, “proto” stuff is more of a trial release to gather combat data, where they load it up with features to see what parts shine. In the original, they kept using the gundam because the kid was adding to the codebase that they would later put into mass production, like a set of standardized moves and actions to code in.

     As the zeonic movements had fewer resources, they came to like one-off powerhouses because they could wipe up dozens of crappy mass production suits with the right pilot, and most engagements gave enough time for prep and postflight maintenance without a constant drumbeat of combat.

     So they at least tried to give some rationale for it

     @WashedOutGundamPilot They make it way too easy for Zaku II supremacists like me. Give me bulky, give me utilitarian, give me cyclopes.

     @MemeLandfill @WashedOutGundamPilot Too edgy for me. Angular instead of round and space agey, unnecessary lines, kunai and ribbon grip katana? No thanks.
     The Zaku already has enough attitude and personality from it's hooded shifty cyclopes eye. The extra spikes and contours to the armour make it lean more into a rhinoceros beetle look than a space scuba diver.
     Not much a fan of the 'sallet' style of helmet either, prefer either the 'Stahlhelm' or 'kabuto' variants if anything at all, but the rule for the Zaku's aesthetic is generally: simple=better. This allows for modularity which lends itself to a much more realistic military aesthetic.
     If you are to modify it, make it look like an off the shelf last ditch retrofit or manipulate the bulkiness of some parts as if it's a later model with larger reactors or something like pictured here. The Psycho Zaku has some of this philosophy, staying very close to the base zaku-2, but despite it's bulky upgrades which are fine and seem very utilitarian compared to elegant federation design, it too has all that unnecessary detailing drawing the eye away from the actual parts and towards the superfluous colours, pads, ribs and lines. Notice specifically the skirt and useless outlining of the pauldrons. It's like a CSGO skin which makes useless panelling pop more than the components, destroying the aesthetic.
     
     I kinda like the Kai here because it looks racier and more powerful with it's extra vents and muscular upper torso which looks like it could comfortably rotate robotically instead of looking like a suit of armour containing a man; a more natural evolution of the base design. Reminds me of the Griffon spits upgraded from the Merlins or the Ta-152 from the FW-190.
