^Don't spoil it just yet though, haha. Still waiting for a proper 1080p release. The 1080p release should be out soon with subs because they've posted the RAW files today.

@Razorwing: I take it that you missed it on GundaGuy's blog? :p I've seen it there earlier today.

MG 00 Raiser - Painted Build

Also, this one looks pretty cool:

I watched the 1080p jap/eng dub release

You mean you watched it with the English dub or did you use the original Japanese audio?

I rather watch it in Japanese as that's the way I watch all my anime. Plus I just love Japanese voice acting.

Also, if you'd watch Gundam Unicorn with the English dub you're also missing out on a key element that's actually part of the whole story in this OVA, which is Full Frontal's voice. It's the same as Char's voice.

Hm, I haven't seen the 1080p version with English subs yet by the subgroup who released the previous episodes. I got the previous from BSS and hopefully they'll release episode 5 soon as well.

Well that was awesome. Can't believe we have to wait a long while to see

Riddhe to pilot the Banshee to most likely fight Banagher in the Full Armor Unicorn

. But overall, it was a slow one. I expected a bit more action.

I couldn't wait with watching episode 5 so I decided to watch it just now, lol.

I loved this episode a lot! Was awesome to see Kai back and being his devious self! :D And Bright finally had more screenplay which I was looking forward to. He really learned from Amuro and Kamille. Also, the way Full Frontal entered the scene was epic as well. His actions of episode 5 made him look even more like Char.

I'm kinda bumped that Riddeh is now the enemy as I kinda liked the character. Though I'm glad to see Marida is back in her "master's" hands. He's more a father to her that master though which is great.

.

The things covered up by the spoiler tags does mean that the 2 remaining episodes are going to be pretty epic.

WANT!!

Also, this actually looks pretty awesome. Universal Century had definitely had the best looking Mobile Suits.

Honestly, I believe 00 Raiser is the sexiest Gundam of all time, besides the fact that I have a huge fascination with the Freedom & Justice.

There was one that really got to me, because I don't think it was even mentioned as a Gundam, the Hyaku Shiki, and honestly, that baby is gorgeous!

Come to think of it, which do you guys like more? The Zeta or the Double Zeta? The face on the Zeta is vicious to me!

^Hyaku Shiki indeed isn't a Gundam. Delta Gundam is it's predecessor and was further developed into Hyaku Shiki. The story goes that they where having issues with making it a transformable mobile suit. The frame of the Gundam wasn't strong enough. So they scratched the idea of making it a transformable Gundam and further developed into a non-transformable mobile suit named Hyaku Shiki.

I like the Zeta WAY more then the ZZ Gundam as the Zeta Gundam isn't as bulky. And the whole Zeta Gundam just looks way better as it still looks like a Gundam and not like a super robot (if you know what I mean).

I also have a weakness for Freedom Gundam though I like Infinite Justice Gundam more than Justice Gundam, haha. Also, 00 Raiser looks great but it doesn't even get close to how sleek the RX line looks. Though, that's just my opinion :p I have a huge weakness for the RX line.

Makes sense! I once looked about the Hyaku on wikia, but I wasn't legitimately sure on its title when it looks exactly like a Gundam, considering that it does look like a pimped out Zeta.

lol I have a thing for the exotic Gundams, a fetish for fast ones like 00 actually!

RX models are definitely gorgeous, most mobile suits in the UC timeline are the most respected and original.

Other than that, I've actually been watching each Gundam movie and show straight from the first season as the wikipedia lists them. Right now, I'm currently watching Victory Gundam! :D

^Nice! Then you're up for some good viewing pleasure!

The Hyaku Shiki does share similarities with Gundam. The only huge difference are the eyes which are more Zeon-ish. You could go here for some proper Gundam info: Gundam Wiki

Haha, too each there own :p I also like fast Gundam but there's just something about the RX line that grabs me. The rawness of them and the way they look.

I've started rewatching Gundam as well and I'm past the half of Zeta Gundam. I'm only rewatching the UC Gundam though. And after that the remastered version of Gundam Wing.

I wish they're bring back such stories like the ones from Universal Century but set in a different universe of course. Now it's all 1 series set in 1 universe. They need to make new series based on 1 universe like they did with Universal Century.

Honestly, I believe 00 Raiser is the sexiest Gundam of all time, besides the fact that I have a huge fascination with the Freedom & Justice.

Zeta looks better in every way. I wouldn't compare the RX series to the 00 series. It's just it's no match. 00 has technology way past the RX line.I mean comeon, GN drives vs your normal booster drive? lol.

    • Apple is expanding Private Cloud Compute beyond its own data centers by Pradeep Viswanathan At WWDC 2026, as part of the improved Apple Intelligence capabilities, Apple today announced that it is expanding Private Cloud Compute (PCC), its privacy-focused cloud infrastructure for Apple Intelligence, beyond its own data centers for the first time. Private Cloud Compute was designed to handle Apple Intelligence requests that are too complex to run fully on-device. The PCC system does not store user data and does not allow Apple or anyone else to access user requests. Last year, Apple also expanded its Security Bounty program with rewards of up to $1 million for researchers who could find serious vulnerabilities in PCC. Until now, Apple's PCC data centers were using Apple's own silicon. As part of the expansion, Apple is working with Google and NVIDIA to run new Apple Intelligence workloads on Google Cloud systems powered by NVIDIA GPUs. Apple will be using this new infrastructure to execute more demanding AI tasks while maintaining the same privacy and security guarantees of PCC. The new implementation uses NVIDIA Confidential Computing with NVIDIA GPUs, Intel CPUs with TDX, and Google’s Titan chip. Apple says it has worked with Google to build additional protections beyond a traditional confidential computing deployment. Despite the expansion to third-party data centers, Apple claims that its core PCC requirements remain unchanged, including stateless computation, no privileged runtime access, non-targetability, and verifiable transparency. The company highlighted that it will continue to control the PCC software stack, and Apple devices will only trust PCC software that has been cryptographically approved by Apple. To take security to the next level, Apple mentioned that it is maintaining an append-only ledger of Google Cloud hardware that is part of the PCC fleet. The company claims this will help reduce the risk of supply chain attacks. In addition to AI infrastructure, Apple also worked with Google to use technologies behind the Gemini family of models to build the next generation of Apple Foundation Models to power Apple Intelligence features across on-device and cloud workloads. As expected, for more demanding AI tasks like agentic tool use and complex reasoning, Apple will rely on the expanded PCC infrastructure running on Google Cloud. The expansion of PCC on Google Cloud will gradually ramp toward the full set of protections during the summer preview period. As before, Apple will also publish binaries for public inspection, provide research tooling, and give researchers access to live PCC nodes in research mode through the Apple Security Bounty Program.
    • my problem with outlook (new) is that it connects only to outlook.com. all connections to external providers goes through there. Got your mail server and want to use imap directly? no way... it adds a connector on outlook.com. last bug; if your email on an external provider if the same as principal email of your microsoft account, it doesn't work...
    • It's the only reason I finally have an iPhone (for work) and enjoy using it so much that I'm tempted to move from android next time I need to replace my own device
    • So is Russia, China, Iran, North Korea, just to mention a few. What's your point? Everyone is a threat from their enemies' perspective. I'd say that Israel is only a threat to their immediate enemies like Hamas, Hezbollah and the Iranian regime, not to anyone else.
    • The government is not the good guy either. You propose 99% of people require that the government overreach and govern their freedom of information and privacy, while ignoring the government is made up 100% of people, of which 99% are (as you described) brain dead. You can't have both. The reality is Signal is absolutely right and the government is doing what it has always done. Ignoring that we are their boss and grabbing all the power they possibly can to make sure we aren't. Your (societies) ###### parenting is not reason enough as to why I can't have a safe platform for my data/information. Thinking the government is helping is precisely what they are targeting psychologically to take suckers like you for a ride. "Think of the children" was, has, is, and will always be a mechanism of control. In the rare occasion it's actually essential the mass consensus has always been there and it doesn't become a debate.
