The Weekly Stuff #413 – Mobile Suit Gundam The Origin Part III Review

<p>A legend is born in Part III of <i>Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin – Dawn of Rebellion, </i>which sees Casval Rem Deikun adopt – er, violently steal – the identity of Char Aznable, and gradually develop the colorful, calculating persona made so iconic in <i>Gundam ’79. </i>It’s one of the most entertaining episodes in the history of <i>Gundam, </i>an archetypal military academy story built on the foundation of Char’s twisted friendship with Garma Zabi, and all leading inexorably towards the horrors of the One-Year War. We discuss that at length as today’s main topic, but before diving into <i>Gundam, </i>you’ll also hear Sean talk about <i>Genshin Impact, </i>hear Jonathan’s thoughts on (finally!) watching HBO’s venerable masterpiece <i>Deadwood, </i>and learn our reaction to the latest slew of <i>Doctor Who </i>rumors! </p><p>Enjoy, and come back next week for our long-awaited, extremely belated review and discussion of <i>Persona 5 Royal</i>!</p><p><strong>Time Chart: </strong></p><p>Intro & Stuff: 0:00:00 – 0:26:50</p><p>Gundam Origin Part III: 0:26:50 – 1:57:11</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQBqje0qmCVn0WkCXJzckaA"><strong>Subscribe to our YouTube Channel!</strong></a></p><p><a href="https://anchor.fm/weeklysuitgundam"><strong>Subscribe to the WEEKLY SUIT GUNDAM Podcast!</strong></a></p><p><a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/wgtc-radio-we-got-this-covered/id535584943"><strong>Subscribe for free to 'The Weekly Stuff' in Apple Podcasts!</strong></a></p><p><a href="https://twitter.com/JonathanLack"><strong>Follow Jonathan Lack on Twitter!</strong></a></p><p><a href="https://twitter.com/SeanTheChapman"><strong>Follow Sean Chapman on Twitter!</strong></a></p><p> </p>
