In part 3 of our series, we discuss Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory, and Mobile Suit Gundam UC (Unicorn). Hear me out: It's actually interesting so please listen.
But, not before we quickly talk about the other shows we have been watching. During the aforementioned discussions, We found some kids on our lawn, and promptly yelled at them to get off.
That's a joke about how we don't understand the youths.

Anibros PodcastAnibros Podcast Episode 145 – Mobile Suit Anibros Part 1: Zeta GundamIt's happened. It's finally happened. Resident Feddy Apologist and War Crime Sympathizer Kenny has viewed a treasured historical document called Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam, which catalogs the atrocities committed by the Earth in the name of keeping the peace.
This has sparked a discussion about not only Zeta Gundam, but our relationship to Gundam as a whole. We recorded for over 4 hours, and covered many entries into the Gundam UC timeline, however this episode covers Zeta specifically. Part 2 will drop on Australia as soon as I find the time to edit it.

This is our first episode of 2021, and we hope to deliver a real banger. And its a real long one, so sorry about that. This year will be the year of changes. The first change is that Kenny is actually watching some quality anime, and shortening his back-log.
But, don't be fooled into believing he is a good person, as he unapologetically implies that the Titans haven't gone far enough in Zeta Gundam.
And because obviously Laven's previously stated feelings for Inuyasha were pure tsundere, he watches the entire thing in what feels like basically one sitting.

Way back in November, the Bros took over a convention center in Portland Oregon, hung out with (and basically became best friends with) Studio Trigger, and learned to gamble away our respective life savings' away. There was also an anime con happening around us at the time, if you can believe it!
