It looks pretty neat.
Something I'll give IBO credit for is that the Model Suit designs don't look half-bad.
It's got an Orbital Frame thing going on with that thing between its legs.

The fact they would have to be made of material harder than the shit they're bludgeoning in the first place to be any sort of effective. Not to mention the Shot Lancer wasn't explicitly only a melee weapon, and was primarily a projectile weapon.
Which begs the question what the fuck are any of the IBO suits made of if the weapons break them so fucking easily? Why not make the suits' armor out of the material the weapons are made of?

Is that really the only god damn reason beam rifles aren't around? Even though anti beam coating in other timelines aren't that great and wear off after awhile (barring shit like the Ataksuki in SEED Destiny reflecting beams)?
God damn I knew it was a good call to drop this garbage episode one.

I personally just watched it since its the "MUST WATCH EVERY GUNDAM" rule I set for myself. It had really bad moments and some good moments its like rock paper scissors. Compared to UC,X and G then yeah its pretty bad while compared to the other AU Gundams we have gotten in recent times I would honestly take it over them.

To me it gave off a little Zeon Bias especially I understand trying to make a gray story but its so jarring when comparing the 2 pilots

>I hope that piece of shit Io dies he might be out best pilot but fuck him amiright guys?

Sadly they ruined the boxart by including a portrait of the fucking pilot who is the most generic looking silver haired fucking animu bishii I've seen in a long time.

Are people even talking about IBO? I think there was a lot more buzz around S1 when it first started airing, and the OP became a meme, but I don't know if it still is.
I think the fact that the entries in the wiki on IBO stuff being fleshed out, compared to the stubs Reconguista has at least speaks for something.
On the topic of Season 2, I feel like the only person who actually appreciates how not every single episode involves a suit battle. The older Gundam series are good, but that shit got tiring in Zeta, to be honest. Especially when revelations in the story were ocurring, and politics were being played, but they kept having to cram a battle in.

Well yes that would be fine… if the show actually managed to be good when there wasn't a mobile suit battle happening in the episode and wasn't a bunch of useless melodrama.

The Galaxy Cannon kicks like a motherfucker. That's why Ryusei-Go has the transformation to begin with. Watch back when he fired it for the first time, each shot shakes the whole MS. It was pretty stupid to try and fire one one-handed in robot mode, and you can see it kick up when he fires it.
Sure, you can still say that no one thought of this problem because "plot", but the shot missing because of the way it was fired does actually make sense.

Go back and take 7th grade physics again.
Recoil happens AFTER firing the shot and for one shot it was more than enough. But thanks to Julietta, her stray shot managed to cause a minor deviation which ended in shot missing it's target.
>but muh Quadruped mode.
To fire one shot after another.
Go and learn how bazooka and howitzer works first before flashing contrived bullshit from your ass, after attending the physics class I mentioned earlier.
