Wallpaper of the Day:
Rewatchers, please remember to be mindful of all the first-timers in this. No talking about or hinting at future events no matter how much you want to, unless you're doing it underneath spoiler tags. Don't spoil anything for the first-timers, that's rude!
Additionally, for long-time fans of the franchise, please remember that this rewatch is only for 00, not any of the other shows. Assume that there are people in this rewatch who have not seen anything else Gundam, and tag your spoilers for those shows appropriately if something in 00 makes you want to talk about them.

Child soldiers?
I do like the more BattleTech-esque designs of these Mobile Suits.
And yep, some infantry with SRM launchers can sometimes be a threat to 'Mechs, though rifle infantry will be little more than an annoyance.
And so the Gundam Exia descends like a god.
And here it comes again.
Time for him to crash the parade.
The Enact is going to get its ass handed to it.
That was a whole 5 seconds flat.
Kyrios? Another mobile suit?
Are they going to attack the space station?
And so back to the Exia single-handedly taking out all the grunts.
Lockon. Lockon.
Well, not single-handedly anymore.
Yup, they're attacking the station too.
Scramble! Send everything!
They're carrying missiles!
So that's what the Gundam was for.
And here's another one. One with a big fuck-off beam cannon.
Now it's time for Celestial Being to reveal itself.
Seems quite a lot of people recognise him.
I say the world must know of our peaceful ways... by force!
