Well she seems much smarter and has an advisor that isn't just telling her what to do.

Chinese peaches are defintely not that pink.

Gundam 00 site update
The official site updated the MS and character profiles with new entries.

MS:
VMS-15 Union Realdo
Head height: 15.3 m (Overall height: 17.7 m)
Base weight: 60.0 t
"MS used by the Union. Still retains its status as their main weapon as their newest unit, the Flag, hasn't been thoroughly deployed. Like the Flag, it has a flight form and can be similarly used as a fighter craft but can't transform in mid-air, needing parts modification work for transformation."

MSJ-06II-SP Tieren Taozi
Head height: 18.7 m
Base weight: 112.1 t
Pilot: Soma Peries
"Enhanced soldiers, 'super soldiers', have been researched by the Human Reform League in absolute secrecy. This is the custom unit for the first of those, Soma Peiris. It displays astounding mobility with thrusters having been added all over the body and large thrust vectoring thrusters equipped on the legs and the moveable armor on both shoulders. The operating system's greater data processing volume with the increase in camera-eyes on the head and the large amount of G's acting on the pilot make flying it difficult for all but trained super soldiers. Further, for the Human Reform League, it's a unique unit envisioned for use both on land and in space."

MSJ-06II-LC Tieren Long-Range Cannon Type
Head height: 20.2 m (Bombardment posture head height, 19.3 m)
Base weight: 142.0 t
"Human Reform League Tieren variation specialized for long-range shooting. Equipped with a 300mm x 50 caliber smooth bore cannon. Against fortifications and, of course, against MS, it's an effective unit, attacking from outside enemy range. Its mobility as an MS is significantly reduced so it's mobilized with escorts during military action."

Characters:
Ali Al Sarshes
"35-years-old. Head of the private military company PMC. It seems he has a past connection with Setsuna..."

Soma Peries
"18-years-old. MS pilot with the Human Reform League, rank 2nd Lieutenant. From the Ubermensch Technical Research Institute, whose goal is to create a perfect soldier, 'Super Soldier Number 1' has an enhanced nervous system and body restructuring to adapt to outer space. She has limited emotional range as a result of brain alterations."

But conceptually, they ARE that pink.

That explains her, uh, attributes when compared to other females of the show...

Who said anything about REAL peaches?

We are talking about Peaches grown by the gods. The paintings of these Peaches tend to be VERY pink.

EDIT: Damn, Brightman beat me to a better image.

i think havent reach puberty yet despite her age

[Katsumara]

My quick thoughts on Marina/Setsuna's relationship is probably more of a brother/sister vibe with little brother helping big sister out and not a romantic one. D: That's just me though.

[MUAHAHAHAHAHA]

Yeah,i don't think the relationship between Setsuna and Marina must be a romantic one.Maybe they are err......long lost bro/sis but unaware of it??

[withered_joy]

Soma is 18??? Okay...at least NOW I'm pretty sure they finally have a normal-sized-breast girl girl with normal breast-size.

As for Setsuna/Marina thing... I'm not alone, it seems
Maybe Marina will pair up with Ali or something.

...I'm somewhat regretting the fact that I have read spoilers about upcoming episodes now I can't speculate as much...*cries*

Peaches are more red than pink when they're riped. And even if you consider that pink, the Tieren Taozi's pink is a totally different shade of pink than those, and resemble mine or VCV's pics much more.

[withered_joy]

LoL. This is a Gundam thread and we're talking about the color of peaches?

Lovely. This is why I find so much amusement when I read discussions about Gundam. For example, in episode 5 discussion thread, people were actually arguing about breast-sizes.

Of course. This is the GUNDAM FORUM. You don't even need to go to school if you read the threads here.

BTW, here are Yun Kouga's original designs for some of the characters, before Michinori Chiba messed with them.

...

I prefer Chiba's art... Though the breast sizes seem a bit more normal originally...

[LightningZERO]

Don't see much differences, except Sergei. He's more masculine

Hmm, I think I like the original Patrick more. And maybe it's due to inflation?

[Papaya]

Patrick looks like he came out of SEED :O

And Sergei looks like a lumberjack D:

[Nuiihren]

Are there more of those character sheets? Would be really glad to see Setsuna and co.

There probably are. But Newtype scans for this show seem so hard to come by...

Sergei's original design is pretty awesome. He resembles a beefed up Dr. Zhivago...or the stereotypical 1970s porn star.
