Show Notes

Everything continues to go well for the Zabi family.

This week, we recap and review Mobile Suit Gundam episode 10, "Garma's Fate," discuss our first impressions, and provide commentary and research on: Where exactly are we? Are we there yet? How long will it take to get there?, the Seattle "Kingdome," carpet-bombing and incendiaries, the first kamikaze pilots, and episode director Yoshikazu Yasuhiko.

- A couple of the maps I looked at before Thom told me they are not to be relied upon.

- History of the Seattle Kingdome stadium, unexpected architectural star of the episode.

- Carpet-bombing and incendiaries explained. Prepare to be sad about the lengths humans go and the creativity employed in the interest of killing each other.

- The first kamikaze pilots.

- And additional information on episode Director Yoshikazu Yasuhiko (aka YAS), character designer, animation director, artist, and award-winning manga creator (link is to a source in Japanese). I highly recommend doing an image search to see samples of his artwork; it makes his artistic influence on the show much clearer.
