Doan Vs The Southern Cross

Doan engages his former squad mates. Despite being in a damaged and older mobile suit he holds his own showing his prowess as an ace pilot. From Cucuruz Doan's Island

[@alastairward2774]

What a mix of emotions, the guy who's pissed off with his team mate who rejected the team, the woman who's in love with him and the outsider who's almost orgasmic about being killed by him.

[@PolyhedralVideo]

The TV Tropes website calls it "Mook Chivalry": Its first rule is: "Mooks must always attack the hero one at a time; to gang up would be to destroy the principle of war."

[@lordgod9958]

There is some merit to this irl If you don't have experience fighting ae a group with clear roles and teamwork trying to engage in a melee fight together is counterproductive What you should do is surround the guy and take turns diving in and backing off. As soon as one person engages the next is ready to follow up

[@NoOne-us9xv]

Except it actually makes sense in this case. It's worth noting they tried to get Danan to back off, because rushing in like that didn't give Selma a clear shot at him. She's using a bazooka. If she misfires and hits Danan, that's pretty catastrophically bad. That's why she didn't immediately follow up (and you can see that she tried to close the gap, but just couldn't get there before Doan fucked him up). As for why Egba did literally nothing the entire time, that one isn't really hard to figure out. It's pretty clear that, given the chip on his shoulder that'd make Atlas blush, he wanted to be able to say he could beat Doan all on his own. It's stupid, but it's plausible for reasons beyond narrative convenience. Ultimately, I think Yasuhiko knew that having Doan somehow beat all THREE at once would just be entirely too anime, to the point where it'd strain believability. It's the same reason he had two of them taken out of commission by Amuro before they ever got to be in the mix. No matter how skilled Doan is, nobody has an answer to getting hosed down with all that gunfire in open space. Eventually, someone's going to hit him.

1:14 I love how Doan misses with his axe but still hits with the edge of the shoulder shield, it's a nice detail.

[@Goldhawk7]

Glad that we actually got Zaku's and other mobile suits absolutely throwing their weapons at their opponents when they out of ammo. 😁 Also, so polite to attack their commanding officer one at a time.

[@ZatchZXman]

It's too avoid friendly fire. Playing GBO2, it's better to wait until either your friendlies run away to take the shot or get downed escape. else you'll just be doing more harm than good.

[@blessedbydarkness]

My favorite thing about the Zaku was the axe. To me that is the most bad ass weapon. Up close and personal.

[@TylerPal271]

This is proof that just because something is new and cutting edge doesn't mean that something from two generations ago piloted by someone who knows what they're doing can STILL KICK SOME FUCKING ASS!

[@Courier-gq6ym]

Its not even a generation old, they were both built in the same year. The high mobility Zaku ground types were just mid-war modifications to let them keep up new fed suits. Doan's also a ground specialist and an ace going up against worse skilled comrades, he knows how they all fight, this just a case of his abusing everything he knows to counter what he doesn't know.

[@kelvinchewjw]

Not that I hate the old series but I think it will make it more paletteable for the newer fans.

I've been pretty hard on the CGI of Igloo/Unicorn/Origin and Hathaway's Flash for being really stiff and distracting but its honestly pretty good here, flows into the 2D segments way better than the past attempts. If they keep up this level of quality I wouldn't mind seeing CGI in Gundam as much.
