The Gundam Episode - Part I

The Best Boys An Anime Podcast

IT’S A GUNDAM(episode)!!!!!! Join the Best Boys for a special two part episode all about Gundam which serves to mark the (unfortunately now delayed) release of Mobile Suit Gundam: Hathaway’s Flash in Japan! From zakus and lunar titanium to mysterious masked men and gratuitous face slapping, Best Boys Dan and Justin are going to tell you all about Gundam as a franchise, take you for a cruise through 42 years of Gundam history, and chat about the timeline that started it all, Universal Century and the original Mobile Suit Gundam! Don’t forget to tune into part two of this episode next week where the Best Boys will continue through the rest of Gundam’s weird and wonderful timelines, tell you everything you needed (and also didn’t need) to know about Gundam model kits, and give a few recommendations about which Gundam show you should watch next!
