I love his line in the anime: "I'll become the funnel!"

[@danielloh4483]

Funnelboi

[@Chan0art]

I dont even understand what this entails is he funneling something? Is he the shape of the funnel? In the end he becomes robo squid

[@Amogus4596]

@@Chan0art it was because of what the people in the livestream was saying(not referring yt live stream i meant the one in the anime that kazami did). They were mentioning about most mobile suits are getting defeated by funnel equipped mobile suits from othe gundam series. And because he was facing the fake nu gundam, he would defeat it by becoming a funnel himself.

[@danielloh4483]

@@Chan0art Maybe all funnels are but robo squids...

[@sinanfaruq3776]

Funny enough: the head is pointed that way because he wants to "become a funnel". TF are you Kazami, Setsuna? I still laugh when I see that scene because It's just so funny, and the fact it's supposed to be "serious" just adds to the humor.

[@Shadows_Inc]

He's such a clown in one of the better ways

[@AshSabre]

Well it was also pointed out that the livestream chat translated is a funny thing as well where the chat was saying: he should remember stark jegan vs kshatriya and hyaku shiki vs quebely then kazami saying "I see... they were all defeated!"

[@Meikyu1]

Is there a aegis runner in this kit. To begin with.

[@grip3939]

Maybe kazami does nt want to damage his eyes from the flash of the explosion of his enemies. So he looks away.

No problem! I hope you enjoy it!

[@jacobcang9485]

@Mecha Gaikotsu it’s a great review just like the rest!

[@spikesagitta]

Kazami really went had a 180 character development. His gunpla went from only attacking to, doing attacking and defending.

[@hinacn8426]

Some fans would be wondering, why is Sunrise giving Re Rise for free in KZbin? How they gonna get thoze money, Me: Gunpla

[@secretasianman108]

Most of IPs with ties to Bandai make the bulk of their money from toy and merchandise sales. It's been that way for a least a decade.

Was expecting a review of the Anima Rize, but I’m glad it was the Aegis Knight! It’s nice to see that Kazami continues to have solid kits come out especially with that character development.

[@draketheduelist]

I think Mecha knows *exactly* what transformation we wanted to see out of this kit... RE-RISING GO!

[@eomersimbajon2938]

PLEASE PLEAAAASEEE DO THE RE RISING GUNDAM IN THIS REVIEW Edit: aww :(

[@Nanbread7927]

i was looking foward to that too so I was sad too XD

[@Kianakaslanatunak423]

you can tell by the time length of the review, It would take at least 30 minutes to fit the Re rising gundam in the same review XD This was is 14 minutes long so it was expected to be a single review

[@jovian4115]

I was waiting for it XD

[@kimznotkimz2380]

[@lilmrmagoo]

If you watched the series it because it's for going into the atmosphere

[@Shnibbledacat]

i feel like from that custom video and on, begins a new age of mecha gaikotsu videos. moreso on the cleanup and detailing part, to make the kits look as good as possible!

[@jahkam07]

Loving this new additional style of review. I like how u mentioned which parts were loose before the topcoat and the side by side comparison of the straight build and your tlc build. Keep it up! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@anluonghong8168]

When I saw the “space squid” transformation here, I had to immediately go back to watch the episode again. I was like: “What have you done to Aegis, BANDAI!?” I just love the original head-hiding gimmick in cruiser mode so much I was a bit shock to see this but the kit itself still look awesome.

[@allenusison3124]

So they made Hinata a Diver in the finale just how I like it. Battlogue is coming soon, so maybe they should give an episode dedicated to her and her journey to becoming a member online and her unique Gunpla. I still prefer a custom Griepe, which the Beam Glaive can be repurposed into multiple forms like a Beam Yumi (a bow that fires energy arrows).

[@ligrerium9891]

Any release date?

[@da1t0u]

It would be nice if Hinata got the Rising Gundam since it fits the naming scheme and it has a bow for her to use. Considering that Hinata kinda looks like a Shrine Maiden, the naginata would fit.

[@davidli1401]

Eva unit 1 is not pearly and candied like Aegis Knight's green

[@classicplanet6809]

For the gold injection I use a polish box to make it look glossy. It does a good job just not on the gold part that has that focused point of putting in the gold injection.

[@nerobiblios4086]

For a Gunpla with 3 transformations, it's probably as solid as it can be. We've had flimsy kits with only one transformation before, so this one is raising the bar higher than its counterparts.

[@ojchavez4838]

Lmao the purplish blue parts make me thinkif it's a planet system.😆

[@bureidokaiza2829]

It's awesome seeing how many new HG kits aren't using polycaps

[@chasinthroughthedecade]

The irony is that as solid as the Justice Knight was, Kazami was such a joke that you just wanted to give him a pounding But as Kazami developed, his new suit in Gunpla form wasn't as solid as the previous one. (Coincidentally, even Core II, from what I have been seeing in other reviews as well, wasn't as solid as Core I; so what's with the slight drop in quality? Did Corona-chan affect Bandai's production line or something too [that I would understand, though]? :/ )

[@jeff3221]

Yeah it's strange isn't it? Though the core gundam MK II was pretty uh... delicate to say the least. That double waist joint was unusable but with some glue it's awesome. But then the ankle armour inner frame that connects the feet rattled around inside the ankle armour. So I needed to cement that and boom now its working. The hands are loose but if you're using it with the Uranus Armour it doesn't matter since the gun locks into the arm twice. The Uranus Armour is also quite weird, the front skirts were wayyyyy too tight and then the shoulders were super loose. It's funny, as the actual canonical improvement to both the MK I and Earthree, these two are worse out the box. Glue is absolutely required to fully realise the kiy

[@wheatleythe_bigmoron_1179]

Kazami & Par had most of the character development, making them my fav characters
