I’m listening through the backlog and these guys keep bringing up things I missed or hadn’t considered . Good job boys
Having finished WoM a few months ago I fell in love with this story and it’s characters. It has by far been my favorite Gundam series to date. Listening to this podcast has been a challenge. It began well enough and was fun hearing others share the joy the show has brought them. However this podcast turned into critique after critique about the writing. The podcasters constantly interjecting how their own ideas were way better than what was produced on the show. Alex’s obsession to make everything a comedic punchline got old real fast and his obsession over face swapping and when that specific theory didn’t pan out of course it was due to bad writing. Maxim did a decent job recapping the episodes but was very lazy when it came to finding proper pronunciations for characters and locations which was very annoying. The podcasters had a love for the mechs and fight scenes but overall missed the heart of the story and the heart warming moments by mocking everything. If you love this story you will probably dislike their rants and their constant criticism for show writing and plot lines.
