You fucking pig. This is such an awful, lazy, self-serving, complacent post. I ought to spit on you. I am genuinely disgusted and mad at the internet.
Did you even notice that almost EVERY SINGLE PIECE LINKED is NOT AN INTERVIEW WITH TOMINO? They are instead COMMENTARIES ON INTERVIEWS BY RETARDED FAGGOT BAIZUO LIKE YOURSELF, OR NOT EVEN THAT, LISTICLE-TIER 300 WORD "COMMENTARIES" ON GUNDAM AS AN ANTI-WAR WORK IN WHICH ALL THEY SAY IS "GUNDAM IS AN ANTI-WAR WORK". THIS IS HOW MEDIA ILLITERACY WORKS. THIS IS HOW WORKS GET COMPLETELY BACKWARD REPUTATIONS IN THE MASS MIND. YOU ARE ALL SO SURE OF YOURSELVES AND IT RESTS ON
FUCKING NOTHING.
Why don't we work through this. Starting with the "alltheanime" guy. Is it an "anti-war" work? That's simultaneously a meaningless and loaded question. You didn't address the key substance of my post, which was asking what the fuck that means. Instead you just repeated it like a dumb animal (you pig fuck).
Is it an anti-war work? Even if we have an "unequivocal yes" according to an extremely conceptually overloaded westerner's recap of a conversation he apparently refuses to transcribe, what does that mean? What is an anti-war work? Can your pig-fuck brain explain that in a sentence which does not contain the term "anti-war"? Can you understand why I am asking you this?
Next one, you send me a less than 400 words recap of an interview WHICH IS ENTIRELY TRANSLATED AND LINKED WITHIN THIS POINTLESS "PIECE" BECAUSE YOU ARE MORE INTERESTED IN DRAWING YOUR AUTHORITY FROM OTHER RETARDED NON JAPANESE WHO HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH GUNDAM LOOKING AT IT FROM OUTSIDE THAN TOMINO HIMSELF. EVERYTHING YOU HAVE LINKED ME IS OTHER PEOPLE INTERPRETING TOMINO (even when it's his words, if you can't understand how that works you really are a PIG FUCK).
Hey piggy, I actually looked at the full piece and look at the FULL QUOTE which this DUMB RANCID CUNT cropped for her own super valuable and not pointless "piece". She is totally a real journalist and not a RETARDED WHORE WHOSE LIFETIME OF "writing" WILL BE OF LESS VALUE THAN THAT OF THE AVERAGE NICHE GAMING FORUM POSTER.
Finally, he referenced the public's perception of the military as "cool."
"There's nothing cool about it," he said. "After all, war must not happen. However, unfortunately we will never be rid of war thanks to the delusions of those who yearn for it."
Unfortunately
WE WILL NEVER BE RID OF WAR. Whose interpretation does that sound like? Mine or yours? Yes, he attributes this to "delusions" here, but in another interview (one you linked but clearly didn't use as more than an affirmation of what you already believe) he refers to war as fuelled by subjective and conflicting notions of "justice". You can say that this is a negative view of war if you like, you can call this "anti-war", but again, what does that mean? If you acknowledge that war is a part of us what does it mean to be "anti-war"? It's like being "anti-sad". It's completely fucking retarded. THINK YOU DUMB BASTARD.
This is from Soranews.
―What’s your reason behind depicting the war from both sides in the Gundam series? Also, did you ask people who have experience about war for the production?
T: Those who grew up in the 1960s have at least a minimal understanding of the memories retained by Japanese people about the war that happened 20 years ago. Besides that, I was able to observe what could be called military history. Those were my basic resources.
At the time, most war accounts were from the viewpoint of one side. However, when you think about how a battlefield is made up of a few hundred or a few hundred thousand people amassing on each side, if it weren’t for both sides standing up for their justice, such a thing as a battlefield probably wouldn’t even come into existence.
Since most of these stories were written from one standpoint, I felt it would be nice to have a story showing both sides from an overhead angle. And after that it was making the TV series a long one, even though it’s a robot anime. I supposed the war setting would provide a lot of material to depict for both sides, and in Gundam, I aimed to create a story capturing both allies and enemies.
Especially since anime is something people usually watch at a younger age, if you only tell about the principles and the position of one side, you will inevitably end up influencing their thoughts in a sense. This had me concerned, which was the other reason I put great care into looking at the situation—war—from a high angle.
And then
―Are there anti-war sentiments in the first generation Mobile Suit Gundam, where you acted as supervising director?
T: Of course. Absolutely true.
Now, idiots like you will run off with that one line, and proudly proclaim that the work
IS "anti-war", but again, what the fuck does that mean? Especially in light of everything else that he's saying in interviews? I know what retarded westerners think when they hear "anti-war", they're running on an outdated marxist notion that war is a kind of collective insanity which will be cured by collective social therapy and justice. And Tomino is old, so fucking old that he came from a time when Marxism was actually believed as a plausible interpretation of history, not just adopted as a pseudo-intellectual affectation by transsexuals.
But Tomino, and his host, do not say what is meant by this. I think coded into this question and its curt response is a tacit realisation that the thought doesn't mean anything. It can't go anywhere. He effectively just asked "are there bad things associated with war in Gundam?" which a child could answer for him. Yes, people die and suffer. War brings bad things. What of it? "Anti-war sentiments". What is an anti-war sentiment and what does that mean? WHAT ARE YOU SAYING? I AM JUST ASKING THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER BECAUSE YOUR REPLY TO MY FIRST POST WAS ONE OF THE MOST OFFENSIVELY DUMB AND ARROGANT THINGS I HAVE EVER SEEN.
Okay, next piece, from Inverse. This is really where I became sure that my reply would have to be full of mean words. Are you aware that this piece doesn't even put up a pretense of speaking for Tomino? What you linked me is a glorified myanimelist review by some faggot named Rafael Motomayer in which he just spews his retarded western jew-programmed communist projected image of what Gundam is into the nobodycares trash-journalism sphere for 500 words. Another waste of oxygen.
Think about the piece of this you linked. How is there any authority to it? Why should I care? How does this convince me? It's literally just some faggot's opinion on a zero-prestige toilet paper e-rag. WHAT THE FUCK WERE YOU THINKING WHEN YOU LINKED THIS? IT SEEMS OBVIOUS TO ME THAT IF YOU WERE CAPABLE OF LINKING THIS YOU WEREN'T THINKING AT ALL. IF YOU DON'T RESPECT ME I'M NOT GOING TO RESPECT YOU.
Tomino's Gundam(and his other mech anime like Ideon, Aura Battler Dunbine and Round Vernian Vifam) were always most prominantly anti-war at their core. Showing the human cost of war was the reason his anime tended to have so many important character deaths leading to him being given the nickname "Kill'em all Tomino" by fans.
You can want Gundam to be whatever you like, but Tomino wanted it to be anti-war as its primary goal. He has stated as much "MULTIPLE TIMES"
DO YOU THINK HITLER WAS NOT AWARE THAT WAR HAS A "human cost"? Tomino clearly wants Gundam to be MANY THINGS. You are the one who WANTS it to be something, and you are the one who has the LIMITED understanding for that. If you watch an entire Gundam series and all you have to say is "anti-war" you might as well not have watched it all. The ZOGbeam has scrambled you. You look at anything with a gun and your programming kicks in, all you have to say afterward is "that was a good anti-war piece. It showed me the human cost of war. It made me think a lot about the individuals who get caught in between." Everything you say about Gundam could be about basically anything. All you seem to be able to process are basic plot beats (who is killing or fucking who) and none of it means anything, in that part of your appreciation you just throw down this giant synthetic slab of "anti-war".
You are MEDIA ILLITERATE. FUCK YOU. THIS REPLY IS MORE THAN YOU DESERVE.
