I would say every conflict is ideological in nature. Social economics is simply a tool. It is the conflicting ideologies (for example, achieving and maintaining a better living condition for a certain group of people at the expense of another group of people) that are at the source of conflicts.

And considering how they treat these boys, do you really think they would take the time and money to create specialized suits for them when it's way cheaper to just fight without a shirt? You can see some who had shirts on prior to the battle like Mika and Danji during the battle, take off said shirts when they begin to pilot. It's not a choice, it's standard procedure for them.

Orga's very position as being that inspiring figure for his men, and the best friend of the MC who pretty much follows his every lead, give him some very huge death flags. Inspirational characters, tend to get killed off to provide development and even more inspiration and drive. Especially in main character who wouldn't have had much autonomous drive to start with.

We'll have to ask a girl about that. Personally I thought it was quite ingenious how they integrated shirtless guys into it. I definitely think they can wear shirts too, and I'll bet we'll start seeing those once time constraints kick in. That way animators won't have to embarrass themselves because the six-pack didn't jiggle that particular week.

I think this is better format than bombarding us with composition for two-third of the first episode (AKA Heavy Object). It run the risk of viewers drop it out right and the the information will likely be incomplete anyway. I actually didn't noticed anything about topless guys. They look so natural, I didn't question it. Now that you guys mentioned it. It's true. They are setting up a stage for whole lots of fujo material.

Overall, I'm super excited by this first episode. Gundam finally returning to its routes, a war between interesting human factions, both of which seem corrupt. Its going to be fun watching Barbatos going medieval with its oversized mace. |

Even in this first episode, we're introduced to the ideologies that are driving the girl, the girl's father, the leader of the kids, etc. All of those ideologies are motivating them to take certain actions which result in this battle. |

I hate Gundam 00, I find it a poorly paced show with gundams more invincible than Gundam wing and lacking any compelling villains. The gundams coming off as pseudo terrorists to me really doesn't help matters.
So yeah, its been a LONG time since I've seen a great proper gundam series (though I loved gundam unicorn). |

Yes, ideologies can help escalate conflicts because sometime even people with the same economical interest have different idea of how to approach the problem. Now, that is what I can consider pure ideologies conflict. It doesn't mean there is no economical interest behind it though. People want better standard living not because some ideology dictate it so. People want better standard living because it make their live better. That's why they have such ideology in the first place.

Same here, as someone who loved Gundam 00 a lot, I'm excited for this series. Definitely has the most similar feel to it than any other show since, at least for the moment.
A lot of the mecha designers also worked on 00. Barbatos in particular is designed by the guy who designed the Gundam Thrones and the guy who designed the Grazed designed Exia/00/GN-X/Reborns among a few others.

War is a good example of this. Technically speaking most wars are actually detrimental to economic trade at least in the modern globalized world. A lot of literature existed early in the 1900s where some writers think they'll never be another big war because the world is too well connected and is too economically unprofitable to partake in. However ideologies as well as some big political events led to things and World War I started......which also is closely connected to World War II. It "may" lead to good riches such as United States being the only industrialized country to survive World War II with their industry base unscathed as well and the economic stimulus helping them out of the Great Depression but I feel like the end economic result was accidental rather than it being planned as such. I feel like the two are always closely married though and are always and constantly interplaying with one another. In some cases they even may be the same thing such as communism and capitalism both being an ideology and an economic model of distribution in the Cold War.

all i want is a real battle with some tactic even a basic one will do, i had enough with both suit flying zig zag in the background only to zoom in when they doing the iconic beam saber clash, i want pieces get damage and parts flying, no clean mech after battle (looking at you seed destiny)
something like a fight between GP01 and 02 or gundam build fighter season 1 for more recent show. btw, i like how the pairing setup is shown clearly at least for now (mika with that shopkeeper loli girl and orga with the princess) |

I for once, never feel interest in Gundam series ever since Unicorn and 00. Frankly, looking at Reconquista Hideous Mecha design make me drop it instantly
I personally see more Villain flag on Orga compare to death flag. |

^like i post before, orga seems prone to betrayal or at least "killing innocent" for the sake of his pride/ambition, but its still episode 1 so let just see whats coming ahead.
mika on the other hand seems like he knew that he is being "used" or maybe he just dont mind it because without orga he seems like he dont know what to do |
