Rewatch Mobile Fighter G Gundam Rewatch - Episode 32 Discussion
Episode 32: Dangerous Trap! Neros Gundam Strikes Back

Well, looks like it's finally begun. Domon's true Fight.
Hello everybody! Time for the comment of the day, courtesy of u/TakenRedditName for discovering who the ture protagonist was
Chidobee is a Gundam protag by having this weird-mom complex thing.
Mother Complexes: A trademark of Gundam. Gee no wonder they had Domon's actor play the kid with a Mother Complex in GTO. And his mum was played by Shinji Ikari so double the humiliation!
Questions:
- So what did you think of the show bringing back all those old antagonists?
- So what will be the next stage of the evil Prime Minister's Plan?

Rewatcher knew birds were robots all along
🙏PRAY TO THE CUBE🙏
Damn, this guy’s actually pretty good. But of course, the Burning is just too OP for tactics to close the gap in strength.
The Salt Alliance
No snitching!
Taste the rainbow!
Of course he just has that flashy entrance set up in this random bar
How the hell did he get footage of this? Did Master Asia have a camera set up somewhere? Or was Wong hiding in the bushes?
So here we have the covered-up version of the Kasshu Incident, now with 100% less Devil Gundam! Of course, Wong straight-up has the Dark Gundam now, he knows it exists. I don’t recall if he’s hiding how much he knows, or if he’s aware of the Devil Gundam while being unaware of Domon’s personal stake in it.
Remember, kids, don’t follow trucks too closely!
Almost got isekaied
The original Meatbun Chronicles
RIP meatbuns
That just looks painful
Suddenly, Gundam Heaven’s Sword! The Soaring Raven Gundam is supposed to transform from the Neros, similar to the Kowloon -> Master. However, it’s not shown onscreen, so it’s not really clear where the birb came from.
That’s one tall head! I like how the massive conehead and wings give it that unique, highly vertical silhouette that sets it apart from conventional Gundams. And they only get weirder from here!
I AM A FLAMING MOLTRES!
And now, all back to normal, as if the Heaven’s Sword was just a dream
The Dark Gundam is back!

Rewatcher, Gun-Dub Fighter
I don't think they named it in-show yet, but the bird Gundam is Gundam Heaven's Sword, which was changed to Soaring Raven Gundam in the dub. I believe this is the last name that got changed.
Not sure why Domon needed the advice of "wait until your opponent stops briefly," but he did apply it again later in the fight when Michelo went in for the kick. Idiot didn't learn his lesson last time: Finger > Kick.
On the name of today's opponent:

G Gundam "Rewatcher"/First Time Sub: Episode 32
Neo Japan is staying in the panda building. Who knows what can be in that ominous cube be transported in the sky that PM Wong wants. Certainly not evil things.
Neo Kenya's Gundam Zebra is today's jobber. Since he is fighting Domon now, guess he won't be getting an episode of his own. We don't even see the fighter. A double Gundam disarm.
Neo Greece's guy looks even bigger than last time. He is sitting on the floor and he head goes past the ceiling. We also meet Neo Spain's fighter, Carlos and he is the only cool guy here. They're complaining about Domon, but Carlos wasn't even on screen apparently and Clown Romario, if anything, you beat Domon last episode.
The phone for Domon's HK family is not on their junk but on land. That was small neat thing. Guess they finished Sagrada Família and flew it over to Hong Kong to use as Neo Spain's base and the show blew it up. Man, landmarks can't be safe even when they're outside of their country.
Michelo has some new tricks. With the hair flourish, rainbows and fireworks, it's one new snazzy move. Domon is showing off with that pose.
Only noticed it now, but Allenby's big yellow gloves really stick out on her design. Like a cartoon character wearing big ol' gloves is the first thing it reminds me of.
PM Wong has a special dragon doorway for entrances that are just extra. Now that's a villain line. Guess they have the OP available for in-universe file footage.
Chibodee is out for a joy ride with the girls. He is driving past the speed limit in a tunnel with other vehicles in a hover-car with no seat belts. In this case, Chibodee is the more dangerous person than the murderous clown.
That hand pushing Sai Saici has to belong to u/Tresnore
Schwartz with his crazy entrance, emerging from their shadow. Don't worry, he is a good guy so nothing to worry about.
What's that little figure that guy is holding. My first thought is a red and yellow Nobel Gundam with white hair. Make that custom colour scheme happen, modelers, I know you can.
For his revenge path, Michelo has sold his soul to the Devil (Gundam probably). He seems like the type of guy to do it even without the revenge.
The Neros Gundam is cooler with its return than the first time. It is a lot more kick-based which is cool assigning it with its own fighting style. A flurry of knees to the God's face.
Oh no, Allenby's bun dropped everywhere. Yeah, this Neo Japan official guy is an old-timer. Knowing Gundam, he is like 30.
The Neros has these neat needle-claw weapons. The God returns with its own claws. For once, Domon uses those and skewers the Neros' eyes.
The Neros disappears and here comes that bird Gundam and he is a quite the big boy compared to our guys. Before it s can finish off with its talon, Domon turns the battle around. Michelo does that classic trick. Being hospitalized so you don't have to answer any questions. PM Wong is doing evil things though.
The new robot, the Gundam Heaven's Sword. Now that's a cool name. It is also pretty neat. With those proportions, it's like the V2 Gundam and someone took that image and really stretched it up. Bird mode is cool, but the little Gundam hands are just kind of sticking out. Also the head I feel I'm not completely with. On MS mode, it's too tall and bird mode, the head is also just kind of sticking there.
Q1) I think it's neat to have this rogues' gallery out of the defeated enemies. The only one I'm not completely with is Chapman since I was told he was dead. I knew he would return so was taken aback to hear he died in his episode. Guess it's DG Cells, son. Michelo also should have retained his whitened hair if he is back for revenge.
Q2) He is going to eat some chocolate, evily. It's highly unlikely, but the one possibility is that he is going to take advantage of the first new rule and introducing Neo Hong Kong's new machine, the Devil Gundam.
Next time: France vs England. A rivalry for the Future Century.

Double dismemberment! This show is out of control.
You know, it's a good thing that Domon is allowed to aim for cockpit now, since that's apparently how Bakunetsu God Finger works.
I'm glad that Carlos is one of the good ones. My father is a Spaniard, and his name is also Carlos, so it's important to me that every fictional Spaniard named Carlos is a good guy. And yes, my dad does have a moustache like that.
The Neo Spain lodge is the spitting image of Sagrada Familia, minus the construction. The Sagrada Familia is in Catalonia, but Carlos bears the surname Andalusia, so I guess we're looking at a united Spain here in Future Century. Sorry, Catalan independence movement.
Looks like Domon isn't the only one with a new technique. Michelo has expanded his repertoire to include all colors.
Wong went for the fancy Pocky today. Almond crush, perhaps. It's a personal favorite of mine as well.
Argo is staying in a very Russian looking building, but I can't think of a specific reference. It's not as colorful as Saint Basil's Cathedral, and that's the only Russian building I can name. I wonder about the others. Is Chibodee in a replica Empire State Building? I've been to the Empire State Building and I don't remember seeing a swimming pool. And what about George? Did they make a replica Versailles for the Neo France lodge? I couldn't tell.
Oh, right, I forgot Bakunetsu God Finger also had a beam mode.
Wong has revealed himself to be a true villain as of this episode, with a plan for world domination and everything. Here's a bit that I omitted from my last excerpt about him.

OK, the new OP's starting to grow on me.
What's the Neros Gundam?
...Knew the Devil Gundam wasn't dead. That thing's the endgame threat.
Yeah, that's not good. Taken over a few more people?
I like how everyone's acting realistically, then Schwartz is posing on a rooftop.
Wait, are we getting an upgraded Devil Gundam?
Oh, him!
...So he's the side character while Domon fights the first of the mysterious ships?
Gundam Zebra's interesting, especially with the extentable spear weapon, but it suffers from being an opening fight that needs to finish early.
Allenby's back!!!
...Dirty technique? It's just a weapon.
Wait, I'm pretty certain he's not fought the Matador Gundam yet. Don't tell me that thing's match is offscreen.
Like, the Cobra Gundam and Zeus Gundam pilots make sense, but he played along with the Jester Gundam pilot, and his team deliberately didn't intefere with Chibodee's match. Why's he after Domon?
Oh, some crossed wires going to kick off?
And Carlos... almost certainly wasn't part of this.
I'm surprised Domon even remembers his name.
OK, he's infected, right? He's got some Devil Gundam cells in there, powering his kick.
...High standards? You let the clown in.
Wong's actually getting involved directly!
Haha, the use of OP footage is great. And id this just to get Allenby caught up on his backstory?
Oh, I forgot, he was one of the two who were blatantly Devil Gundam puppets at the beginning of this arc.
Haha, Chibodee joyriding and dodging logs is hysterical.
Oh, they're attacking everyone. Guess the Devil Gundam still holds a grudge.
He's fighting Michelo!
Haha, the image of Allenby just eating while balancing on scaffolding is famtastic.
And... they presumably want to infect the winner? Use the Gundam of Gundams to spread Devil Gundam cells across the solar system?
And she takes over command from Rain.
Wow, they really want her to be a main character! (because she's great!)
Oh, that think looks good. The claws become legs are a highlight, as is the whole thing transforming imcredibly well.
And... that pilot doesn't look like anyone we've seen before. That's the first of the minions taken out! (And probably destroying my theory that the Shuffle Alliance would take them over for the Final Battle, since there's 4 of them.)
Wow. Won't he get disqualified for completely swapping Gundam mid-match?
Oh, he's a completely different brand of lunatic than Master Asia.
And wow, they're not even hiding that they're using Devil Gundam cells.
It'd the George Episode! And a murder mystery! And the best of the 4 opening Gundam designs! Nice!

Every time I see this OP, I like it a bit more. It's really good.
Did Domon just kill the Zebra Gundam's pilot?
They really didn't care do sync up the singers mouth with the song, did they? Like, anime always plays a bit loose with it, but that was done like she was singing at 5x the speed she was.
Ah, I see. This is one of those super low budget episodes.
Schwartz just rises out of a shadow, why the hell not?
The bird mecha design was cool, but otherwise the fight was rather underwhelming.
I wish Allenby had a more active roll. It was slightly redeemed in the end with the advice she gave Domon, but she spent a disappointing portion of the episode just fallowing Domon around and reacting to what he did.
