Gundam Explained: The One Year War - THE FULL SAGA

Because I called M'quvue a mean word, KZbin in all their wisdom has demonetized the video. Please consider becoming a Patron or Channel Member so Shirtdude and I aren't hit by this nonsense as hard. Links in the description.

[@soru2186]

I, as a japanese gundam fan, am very impressed at how you were able to combine the stories from the countless gundam series from the UC timeline and put it all into a timeline that makes sense, well done!

[@AncestorEmpire1]

Once my nephew out grows Transformers. I will introduce him to Gundam when he is old enough. This is the path.

[@Nimrod336]

ROFL, you dang right. I adopted my nephew, and at night, we watch anime before he goes to bed it's a good way for us to bond. 08th Ms team was one of the first shows we watched together.. still can't get him to watch the original he says it looks and sounds awful and can't watch it..

[@cameochris]

​@williamdabbs9636 I always start people off on the 3 movies the original series is too hard a slog for first timers

[@MajorityXIII]

This is the path

[@KeonVioletWilkins]

Will suggest if he likes building models to have 079 in the background while building them. I did that and slowly I've started to like it so much as background noise I've had it on repeat. Once I finished building with Code Geass in the background I plan on building to 079 and Zeta dubs for like the 3rd time

[@Nimrod336]

@KeonVioletWilkins bro! I love this community we all think alike, I did exactly that. Since we watched 08th ms team I bought a gm and the rx79 ground type (sheiro's gundam) and as we built them I put the movie on (he didn't understand the more complex parts, because he's a little slow but he loved it all the same) I was amazed at something he did while doing this. His painting his almost better than mine and I been doing this for 24 yrs. It actually made him get into art and the boy is simply amazing. When he was very young he had fine motorcontol issues, and I'm a fighting game fan so I got him on street fighter kof13 and tekken7 doing combos. All the work he put into art, modle kits, and the combos he over came something very difficult. I have his first combo on my channel.

[@Synlidwirh]

This was awesome and a good way to rewatch without having to rewatch a number of different series for a month or three depending on work. Great work.

[@Jaeger_Bishop]

I think the thing that truly shows how inept Zeon leadership was during the OYW, is that they could have made up the losses with asteroid mining and maybe even going further out into space.

[@cameochris]

I always point to Zeon invading Earth as the beginning of the end for Zeon it has parallels to Afghanistan for me

[@OrysB-po1fy]

It’s just supposed to be an allusion to the Germans vs the Soviets and Japanese vs the Americans. The Zaku are the German Tanks and Japanese carrier aircraft and the Gundams are the Soviet Tanks and American carrier aircraft. Reason Zeon keeps making mobile armors and crazy super weapons is because of Hitler. Reason they have no pilots is same reason Japan couldn’t replace pilots after battles like the Philippine sea and started doing Kamikaze attacks. The whole start off with big gains but grind down into a stalemate before being overwhelmed playbook zeon uses is just Germany and Japan. The leadership had to reflect the role and the role doesn’t have the best examples of leadership for a source.

[@OrysB-po1fy]

@@cameochrisnah it’s very obvious a parallel of the German invasion of Russia. Afghanistan couldn’t counter attack anyone where Russia did push all the way into Berlin.

[@Valarius_J]

Ramba was not a Zabi loyalist in Origins. He outright refused to participate in Loum in Origins and took a demotion as a result. He also viewed the entire One Week Battle against the Sides as little more than a slaughter. Considering the Zabis also had his father killed? No way Ral was loyal to the Zabis, he just still fought for Zeon.

[@LFdonohue94]

Yeah. The Origin continuity isn’t perfect, but that bit about Ramba rubbed me the wrong way. Origin Ramba seemed pretty on brand for the classic character. Just a bit younger. Even in the manga original of Origin.

[@postmodernguava9518]

[@toddchang2638]

hi big micah! i got into gunpla at the start of the pandemic, without knowing anything about gundam lore and just basing my kit choices entirely on aesthetic. ive always wanted to learn about gundam but never found anything on youtube that really did it for me. that is until i stumbled upon this video! it was exactly everything i wanted from a mobile suit gundam lore breakdown, and more. thank you so much for doing this one. i will now catch up on your wing videos as i look forward to any continuation of the UC timeline as explained by you! cheers!

[@russellsales7796]

It’s nice you condensed everything into one video. I hope you get to Zeta Gundam soon. There’s a lot to go over around that period.

[@muhamadariefrahmanhakim9166]

All aboard the gryps conflict

[@primusvsunicron1]

he has to talk about The Delaz Conflict before covering The Gryps Conflict

[@camiloruizcastellar4740]

Sorry but this video is completely inaccurate because is based solely on anime versions like Gundam origin which has so may changes to the original material that is closer to a redcon. first of all Zeon Daikum only wanted peace by diplomatic means, the Zabi family is the one advocating for war, Degwin Zabi comes up with an illegal idea to bypass the economic blockade from earth giving green light to modify a civilian jet for military means and starting the tensions. Important pieces of info like this are spread out on mangas and many old video games, some of them never translated from japanese.

[@Jaeger_Bishop]

The Guncannon is hands down, my favorite Federation suit of the OYW. I've burned down an insane number of Zeon suits, mobile armors and tanks in that machine. Especially in Gundam Crossfire.

[@PagemanX]

Loved that you included all the side stories, UC universe is freaking massive.

[@tokyosmash]

>> Zeon declares independence

[@brooklynitelife9049]

Ramba was not by any means a Zabi loyalist in origins. He may have had loyalty to Dozle from his previous military career he was very much loyal to Daikum.

[@Valarius_J]

And even his loyalty to Dozle had its limits. He outright refused to participate in Loum in Origins and took a demotion as a result. He also viewed the entire One Week Battle against the Sides as little more than a slaughter.

[@LeosAlloy94]

You are truly amazing. I need you to know I listen to your vids so much. So excited to have a 4+ hour long vid.

[@Hrotriks]

Now to be honest Zeon did what the Yatzees did in WWII , they began doing a lot of experimental weapons in order to win the war , when their resources were extremely limited , so I know you hate em for that and yes toys is a good answer , but still it replicated real life actions of a dumb military driven to the corner of defeat.

[@nmarrero357]

...so does that make Big Zam Zeon's Maus?

[@Piotr-u1z]

​@@nmarrero357 No , that would be Bismarck . Maus would be the failed project like first seas ms .

[@ace448]

So the Zeon is actually closer to Soviet Russia with Zabi being Stalin and the purges

[@rionholiday6313]

It took me 3 weeks to watch this. I listened to it every time i took a shower and went number 2 but i loved this series. Kudos to you

[@TroySpartan247]

Fun Toonami fact: they edited the show to kill off Ramba Ral after their MS fight, dying in the explosion as he was swinging away. This was to not show his 'true' death later on.

[@sigurdrr1015]

You have no idea. I think this is the third time i set this to play as i drink my late night tea and get ready to sleep. Good narration, good quality material Very well done.

[@ShdwRvr]

Yeah. Not gonna lie... Your work is now my go to video for the OYW. Excellent job Micah and Shirt dude. Looking forward to the next project. P.s. Saw Seed Freedom... You're not missing out.

[@R_Caine]

Good thing I didn't spend any money on that movie, mate.

[@bionicghost2772]

For the eventual requiem for vengance video, you should do the visuals for the intro as usual, vut without any voiceover and then ear the end, go "... Don't worry about it!"

[@xVenomousOnex]

Ah yes the tried and true tactic of F*CK YOU. But seriously the fact that Amuro makes a 60 meter mobile suit look that acrobatic says a lot about his piloting skill. My favorite Gundam pilot 🫡

[@riptors9777]

I think it says more about the limitations of animation back in the day XD My favourite OYW depiction of how mobile suits of the time worked would be 8th MS team and War in the pocket. Much more weightier and impactfull movement that actually gives you the feel of these things being massive machines of war then just some guy in a beefy power rangers outfit XD

[@xVenomousOnex]

@@riptors9777 lol that's fair, both of those OVAs are my favorite gundam iterations and depictions on Gundams as machines. That being said I do thing only Amuro and Char are capable of making such a heavy machine look acrobatic so it doesn't take too much from the show.

[@cabnbeeschurgr]

The RX-78-2 is 18 meters tall, but that's about 60 freedom units so close enough. 60 meters is more like Jaeger size

[@xVenomousOnex]

@@cabnbeeschurgr wrong unit of measurement my bad, I meant 60 feet

[@ZanaTheBatPony]

Funnily enough, this series got me curious to see what the alternate enumeration dates are for B.C and A.D, which turned out to be B.C.E (before common era) and C.E (common era) respectively.

[@WatcherPrime]

And if you want to send people into a real shitfit, ask them what marked the 'common era'.

[@will_the_don]

@@WatcherPrimeI’d imagine 9/10 people couldn’t answer that

[@mr.s2005]

guess zeon were just a version of how Germany fought in WWII were they kept focusing on different superweapons especially when they were losing instead of just using what worked.

[@salamanderred8148]

I like that idea. C'mon Past German Scientists. You had the chance to make Gigantic Robots (well, maybe powered by Diesel Engine and whatever seems too farfetched, but the point still stands). The scarcity of materials make you focus on novel things and that bring us to better tank etc. Should have focused on better gigantic robot. I mean if Germany at the time is destined to fall anyway due to it's aggresivity made too many enemies, better to fall in style. Imagine Hitler's last moment is not suicide in some unknown bunker in the middle of God Knows Where, but instead in the Frontline, piloting a Gigantic Nazi styled Mecha, and it took everything that the Allied force had just to bring him down, and the battle had to last for days and nights non stop, until Hitler or the Mecha gave in, either from fatigue or from out of supplies for the Mecha. Now that's a lass boss Battle that 200% had to be written down in history for every seconds of the event.

[@luna775]

Man this series is so daunting, I even had to take breaks from this synthesis.. Thank you so much for the video it helps a lot to understand Universal century, shame they will never remake it in a cool but respectful way, also including the other substories, like slave wraiths, and other Gundam and also including your favorite Zeon officer, weird whoever did it before was so tone deft about that character, at this point is not like they did not know.

mechs for military use? no. At least not yet anyways, they’ll find a role for it eventually. mechs for industrial use? *yes.* we can definitely find roles for them fairly quickly and you be very surprised what kind roles those things can fill in too. until then we literally have no uses for mechs at the moment since we obviously aren’t a space fairing species yet (if we haven’t wiped ourselves out over stupid greed and power) so overall it’s pure hypothetical scenarios till the day we decide to give it a try, we *might* see it happen in this life or we don’t see it happen. regardless it is inevitable for it to happen.

1:51:30 actually that zaku 1 is the prototype of the gouf, Ramba designed the thing congruent with the zaku 2 so they were rolled out around the same time, so yes, literally because RR is a badass is why the gouf is blue

One slight correction: Shin Matsunaga was actually recalled to Side 3 just before the Battle of Solomon, where he would get his Gelgoog Jäger. He earned the nickname "White Wolf of Solomon" because thats where he was based at, his personal emblem, his color scheme, and his skill as a pilot.

[@SGStudiosOK]

Excellent series, one thing i think is missing at the begging is a explanation of minofsky particles generstors etc, and how they effect things like radar etc , which is why combat is so close in and bloody, there are no guided missles etc, they are useless in a minofsky field, which is why remote newtype weapons are valued

Watched this over the course of a week or so, not because I lost interest, but because I just enjoy remembering everything. I've reset it a few times as well, I just enjoy the trip down memory lane every now and again. Can't wait for the 15 hour video of "Gundam Explained: The Universal Century - THE FULL SAGA" lol

@19:44 Maybe a weapon system like the mobile suit would be useful in space... On earth. No even with the creation of minvosky particles, Countries would not risk the chance of thermal nuclear explosions of a mobile suit in battle. Also for the same reason that the Rattay tank wasn't created. Bombers would have a field day attacking a target that big. so would drones and helicopters and jets. If Shiro can disable a Zaku with a handheld anti-tank rocket, What do you think hellfire missiles and other weapons will do to a Zaku. A 60-foot tall robot only going 50 mph ( 5mph less than an Abrams tank I'll add.) Mobile suits would get decimated. I can only see select fields of operation where they would work. Mainly space. On earth. Mobile suits are gonna get overwhelmed by tanks, gunships, and jets, not to mention drones and bombers doing laser-guided strikes. Not sure if Minvosky particles interfere with laser-guided weapons. Also, minvosky particles have to be in the air to affect anything. As we saw the mobile armor conducting long-range strikes while unit 2 was being stolen in Stardust Memory. So if no minvosky particles you're going to get hit with cruise missiles. But again the risk of nuclear detonation is enough to make them not practical. Love Gundam though. Smaller exo suits, I can see being a thing possibly.

[@colinbielat8558]

Laserguided munitions would be susceptible to minosky particles. Minosky particles disrupt elecomagnetic radiation and interferes with electronic circuitry. Not to mention they also create a visible haze due to interfering with visible light. You can harden circuitry to protect against minosky particles but you would only do that stuff making use of minosky fusion reactors, otherwise it is to costly. That is why wire guided equipment was deployed and newtypes were do prized, they could bypass the usual restrictions of minosky particles by using amplified brain waves.

Now just imagine if they took all of these stories, and did a "Mobile Suit Gundam: One Year War - Master Report" - Full remake by the same people and at the same quality as Gundam Unicorn. incorporating the various MSV, working the side stories into a wider narrative. The way I imagine it is actually like lot like what you did here but on a much grander scale, framed as an in-universe retelling of events much later after the fact - and that detail could also serve as an excuse for the inevitable discrepancies that would occur. God, I can dream. More on point, this was a lot of fun, but I really do wish you'd talked a little bit about just the immediate aftermath of the war - what happened to Side 3, how it become the puppet state that was the Republic of Zeon, that sort of thing.

Truth be told you’re not wrong if you do because the gist still shows all of the buildup leading to the one year war and even though in origin, the Zabis let General Revil escape It helps to clarify some things.

Man, your video really makes we wish we got a modern remake of the OYW. Instead we got Kira "space jesus" Yamato.

Those shoulder mounted shields are pretty dope.

[@bartisreallykewl]

This is very interesting that the series does so much leg work to justify mechs but then puts them in space where it makes the Least sense. Also the armaments are pretty mild, like gun tank is the same fire power as two abrams and a couple of dudes with javelins. The unfortunate reality of the javelin is that any and all armor vehicles are almost obsolete. “But the magic particle prevents lock on” She direct fire just fine, laser guide it even from miles out or from a Satellite. The javelin ideally auto guides itself to hit the top of the tank where the armor is the weakest or the head of the mech. The armor penetration is stupid high and it’s specifically designed to counter reactive armor, the best defense available today. We can’t have cool stuff because the military industrial complex put the power of god in a disposable tube you control with an iPad. This future sucks.

[@ew21st23]

[@carterroberts418]

Only person I’ve ever agreed with everything they said. Right down to haman #1 ramba rall#2 fav zeon pilots

[@mr.s2005]

personal opnion but also figured Gundam Seed was close second to showing opposing sides' leaderships being both corrupt and even genocidal as they pushed the front line soldiers to fight to the death, while for the most part those same leaders stayed far away from the battlefield though at some point karma does get them. Also Gundam Seed did a decent job at showing both armies having soldiers who weren't homicidal toward the other side but were fighting to either prevent further tragedies or protect their friends and families. But thinks is a bit clear Gundam Seed is just copying a lot from the original series....like a lot of it. though not that big of a fan of Destiny, that one was pretty dumb.

[@Slifer29]

I agree with you Seed really showed the extreme that both sides would go to in order to win the war initially both sides simply wanted to defeat the other, but as the series progressed moderates were being phased out by the radicals who had genocidal intentions against one another in the beginning Siegel Clyne was a moderate within the PLANT government and the Eurasian Federation were more so the voices reason in the alliance as they simply wanted just the defeat of the PLANTS This is why during the battle of JOSH-A the Atlantic Federation had discreetly snuck away, their soldiers while the base was primarily defended by those from the Eurasian Federation, and after using the cyclops system, this insured that there would be a shift in the power balance for the Atlantic Federation to step in and with them being a majority they could shift their views even concurrently in the PLANTS when Patrick Zala won the election He was pushing for the destruction of naturals because at that point, it was no longer a war of conquest. It was now a war of extermination.

[@ZiplockBob]

As far as the actual content of your video and how well you tracked the events of the war and then explaining what was happening with Bandai saying "we need more toys" and other production facts, you did very well. I do think you need a little polish here and there with your presentation but expect that to come with time. That being said of lot of your humor just lands a little too low brow at times. Like you did a great little bit where you bashed on Seed but it got to the point to where I was wondering if I needed to change vids because the joke stuck around for a bit too long for my liking. Then there are little things like saying someone was retarded, when you could have just have easily just said they were fucking stupid or the Mia Khalifa joke was just a whiff for me. But that's a "to taste" thing not going to hit you up too bad on that one. Even though I found that a bit too distateful, you definately won me over when you correctly pointed out that Amuro wasn't going through what people think of when they say PTSD since it takes the symptoms lasting for more than 6 months before it hits the chronic stage and before then its just Onset if not just an exaggerated stress response, which means its reversable with the right change of environment. So good on you for seeing that nuance.

[@riptors9777]

This video aptly shows why i like the ghirens greed games. You can play as a non moronic ghiren! You can decide not to support chars chase of the white base resulting in your little brother garma surviving (also saving many other zeon aces), you can give ramba the Doms wich leads to him actually capturing the white base! You can not support the exam nonsense and loose a valuable newtype pilot for suits that become outdated 1 month ingame time later. You can stop the Experimental unit program to not waste Ace pilots on dead end machines like the hildolfr (no matter how cool it is, its simply not worth loosing an ace over it). You dont need to invest into every stupid MS design Zeons many different manufacturers cook up... ESPECIALLY some of the more goofy mobile armors or amphibean MS. (Though it is beneficial to atleast research their blueprints cause atleast in threat of axis you get one unit defacto for free by only using cash and not valuable resources) Also you can decide not to fire the stupid colony laser and roast your own father so kycillia cant shoot you in the head. Infact, it is a auto loss if you act exactly like ghiren did in the anime. Whenever the game asks you for a decision NEVER EVER take the same decision ghiren took in the anime.. that just shows how colossaly stupid ghiren was.

BattleTech is far more obscure and convoluted compared to something like Gundam. My buddy and I ended up giving up on it because it made little sense from the outside looking in. The Federation v.
