The "Anal" helmet at @4:22 is actually written as Arai, a Japanese company that specializes in helmets of motorcycles, and other helmets from other motorsports, just like Fox Racing but in Japan. These Arai helmets are quite very expensive for their sturdiness and structural integrity (literally made out of Nokia and Volvo from Fukushima) while offers comfort. Pretty sure in the anime they replaced the letter "i" with small "L" to avoid copyright lawsuits, but still 💀💀💀💀

6:22 It's actually unironically historically correct. Back in medieval times if you had very important message to deliver, you'd ride on the horse so fast, it'd exhaust them so much, they'd die the second they stopped running and all the adrenalina stopped. Also If you couldn't reach the destination in 1 ride, there were those special stations where they kept horses for messengers, so they could switch to new, rested horse and continue riding. That's why kanji for "eki" (station) has kanji for horse in it.

Speaking of Tomino and Isekai: Garzey's Wing was apparently a spinoff of Dunbine, an isekai mecha show... except set in the distant past and without the "mech" part. Another spinoff released a decade later, the Wings of Rean, does have mechs in it though.

[@disarmadilloplay]

Honestly, designs and animation looks great and premise is pretty interesting. Dub gives it such a derpy vibe. I'd watch it over most modern isekai.

[@qq-wy7zs]

Better than smartphone. Worse than smartphone abridged.

[@MechasterReal]

It’s actually a spinoff of an older 80s Isekai anime called Aura Battler Dunbine. It’s actually pretty good and they use giant bug mechs to fight.

[@Ozraptor4]

The 'narrative quirks' of Garzey's Wing are understandable given that Tomino suffered a complete mental breakdown in the aftermath of Gundam F91's failure (1991-1992), followed by his severe depression throughout the production of Victory Gundam (1993-94). He was probably bearing the mental scars of post-Gundam burnout when he made Garzey's Wing.

[@g_y.rtz420]

Thank you, this explains it a bit, i was so confused to find out tomino made this like what the fuck. It still is confusing tho like i dont know if this was his creation entirely or did he just direct it, what was he thinking going into this, lmao Tomino what the fuck is u on bro

[@chaoscrimsonia]

I haven't watched F91 but I've read Crossbone Gundam which is a direct sequel to F91 and Crossbone isn't that bad I think. Why did F91 is considered a failure at that time? Genuinely curious.

[@FOXZILLA5734]

​​@@chaoscrimsoniaThe reason is that F91 was originally conceived as a tv series but conflicts between sunrise and Tomino resulted in them ordering the first 13 episodes already written to be condensed to a film which resulted in the pacing issues in the film. Unfortunately things didn't get any better when sunrise was just bought by bandai at the time took a lot of creative control from Tomino during the production of Victory Gundam.

Dunbine would also get another spinoff in the 2000s called Wings of Rean. I don't know much about it, but it looks cool. I really don't know why he didn't bring it up since Garzey's Wing is so connected to it.

Yoshiyuki Tomino was a man who had a dream. A dream of creating something so absurd and ridiculous that it would defy all logic and reason. He knew he had the power and the freedom to make his dream come true, and he didn't care what anyone else thought. He was a visionary, a genius, a madman. He was the master of his own destiny, and he chose to make it a glorious disaster. I admire him for that.

[@desshinta9428]

the reality is he was having a pissing contest with Sunrise after he so badly screwed up Gundam Victory that he didn't want to work with them anymore; trying to do his own series, with blackjack and hookers...with this actually exposing Tomino could not write for himself to save his life. All his previous projects he'd been only the director of, with him doing more to interfere with efforts by the writing staff to write a good story. This consequentially is what you get when a man with no talent for writing tries to do everything himself. His ineptness at writing his own material would come back to bite him again with The wings of Rean and G-reco.

This is amazing. I'm so glad this is getting coverage. I saw it at a convention years ago and proceeded to show it yearly in my college anime club. I have seen this trainwreck entirely too many times

This does not change the fact that there are 21 million penguins in Antarctica, and in Malta there are 502,653 inhabitans. So if the penguins decide to invade Malta, each Maltese will have to fight 42 penguins.

I am so happy you’re covering this, Garzey’s Wing is a goddamn trip lmaooo

[@GenmaTheSamurai]

God this has been my favorite party movie to throw on since like 2014. Seeing new people react to the beginning of this anime in particular is the funniest experience ever because no one has any idea what in the heck is going on LOL. Also, as a result, I loved the 'where are they now' bit at the end, that was perfection LOL. I wish you showed the bit after the "Doesn't work." becuase the "My wing roots are oily" bit is so insane I can't help but laugh at it. This show is WILD lmfaooo.

[@TheMamaluigi300]

11:58 To be fair, that little misstep aside, this anime’s animation does look pretty solid (I mean, it’d look more so if I still thought it was a TV production and not an OVA. Why didn’t you tell us, Gigguk??)
