The armor? Great. Love the armor. The fingers, oh. Those are fantastic. And great colors all around. But, uh, what are you swingin there, bud? Are you swinging... a weapon that's been broken for a few hundred years? That wouldn't be that hard to fix, at least by giant robot standards. Hmm. Hmm. I see. Well. We all make choices.

Entrust your fate to the big, mechanical hands of the cards. Listener CrossZeta made a very efficient request, because we'll probably be rolling Cardfight Vanguard designs for years without rolling out (given that they're only a percentage of the requests anyway). Then again, maybe not- it's fun to tackle one-offs, but we're trying to tackle lines of robo, and there may not be that many lines within the game. Time will tell!

It's been a while since we've had an episode about a single machine with no variants or upgrades. And one so deserving of them, too! I get that the appeal of the Bael is elegant simplicity. But the Bael exists! Let's have a Bael High Mobility, or a Bael Cannon, or a Bael Full Armor! I know that's not how IBO designs are built or named. I don't care. I just like seeing cool designs be iterated on, and I am being deprived of that. This is bullying, they're bullying me.

It's not our first tokusatsu mecha, but it might be our most charming. King Joe (great name, by the way) is coming at us straight from Ultraman, a combining robot that proved an instant hit. I love the way having to have a real dude in a suit affects the design of toku robots. Personality is an inevitable consequence.

Maybe the red I see is not the same as the red you see. And maybe I first encountered the G-Arcane in Gundam Versus for the PS4 and haven't thought about its color scheme since then. Dylan's right about some things, wrong about some other things, but it's always a good idea to reexamine your assumptions. You never know when you might decide something you've thought for almost a decade is wrong.

Sometimes you do it for the boys. Sometimes you do it for the 'Gram. And sometimes? You do it For the Barrel. Today we discuss the designs of a Gundam AU that, I don't wanna tell tales outta school, but might possibly have been so badly written that its mechanical designer walked away in the middle of the project. It's a shame, because that designer was clearly one of the few parts of this project actually killing it.

I think I forgot to say it on air- maybe I didn't? It feels kinda familiar? But this is a double request, from listeners muffinlord and Gaiseric! A big thank you to the Patreon creator Byston Well Stories, who can also be found on Bluesky, for your hard work translating For the Barrel and uploading scans of it, we really appreciate it! You should also check out their current work translating Tomino's Byston Well... stories. I guess it's all there in the name already.

Alright, alright, get your jokes out of the way. This manta ray lookin' dude is one of SEED's design successes, so I won't have you teasing them too hard. Expect the usual SEED issues- line art errors, slightly nonsensical weapon details, an element here or there that would improve the whole design if it were simply removed- but the GOOhN's alright with us.

I didn't PLAN to make this the Victor Show. Sometimes these things just... happen. Hey, if we're gonna do card game designs, we should do like. Netrunner, and Yu-Gi-Oh!. And Magic I suppose, I'll be honest, I don't really care about Magic. I did in high school, and it's not like I've "grown out of it" or anything, I've just lost interest. But maybe it has some cool mecha cards. That could potentially sway me.

Friend friend friend friend friend! Who would have guessed that this fun enough one-off design from ZZ would become one of the most beloved parts of Turn A? There's a lot to love about Turn A, of course- a really wonderful show that's horribly slept on. But maaaaaan. The Kapool. What a winner. What an all-time best friend.

It's fun to discover whole worlds you previously knew nothing of. The listener whose request we rolled this week made the request a few years ago at this point, and sent along some art of the cards they were interested in. And I was like, "oh, there are a decent number of these, huh?" Friends, I had no idea. Once we looked into the topic... wow. This card game has a lot of robots in it. And a lot of them are from names we know and love....
