Can't find the last volume online (and I don't have room for hardcover comics in my house lol), so I'm done with Gundam the Origin for now. The full color version of this comic looks gorgeous.

The prequel portion of the comic is pretty mid. All the lore and extra background stuff about UC0079 isn't really what I find exciting about the series.

        i watched all of cross ange. i. i don't know whhy, but i did. it's so fucking bad, the only bright spot is that occasionally the girls have some gay moments that aren't too male gazey

            that first episode was probably the worst one? the sexual assault dies down for a while, though it comes back towards the end. big chunks of it are just really boring tbh, which you wouldn't expect given the sheer number of plotlines it has going on
