He provided quite alot of examples with calculations and comparisons, and in the end stated Mazinkaiser is invincible to everything on this planet or something.

People just had to agree.

Wow

As my management professor would say to anybody who finishes their project ahead : get a life!

Fanboys and fangirls just never ceases to amuse me with their passion for fiction.

And no, Mazinkaiser isn't invincible since it takes damage in every single game it appears and I've gotten it killed once or twice (completely my fault).

Its seem that the Memento Mori released some high concentration energy particles effects on all individuals that can use quantum brainwaves . It may be the particles of 00 and 0 Raiser that release high percentage energy output that may have effect on it. I think Soma will come back too.

[C.A.]

Well. its actually quite obvious that its 00's Transam's incredibly high output of GN Particles that caused the guys to have increased Quantum Brainwave activity. The animators even scattered lots of green particles all over the place to show that.

What kind of loser's statement is that? No wonder he is a management professor. He certainly has a control freak's passion for managing people and their lives.

The idea of life is subjective, because everyone has a choice of how they want to live theirs. There are some people who chose to become social workers despite the payouts being barely able to support them, and these people have degrees that could get them higher paying jobs.

Some people look at things and ask why. Some people look at things and asked why not. It is all in the mind, because logic not only dictates sense, it dictates possibilities too.

So ask him, what is life? Or what should everyone do in life? I don't think he can even come up with an answer with the bare validity.

Invincible means that it is impervious to hurt. Immortal means that it is impervious to death. So I would say, Mazinkaiser is immortal, not invincible.

Invincible is what Mazinkaiser is. He took a 70000+ ton flying fortress charging and crashing him into Mount Fuji, exploding and didn't leave a scratch.

Then took explosions and blasts of several times nukes, didn't scratch it.

That guy did the maths for those and other examples, calculated how much did the Choukogin New Z armour withstood. The conclusion is that Choukogin New Z makes Mazinkaiser invincible.

Bah, a UMN cannon would still kill it dead in a single blow.

Wow

I can't believe you actually took it seriously and wrote a bunch of stuff in response. I'm speechless I tell ya.

The Mazinkaiser doesn't even use the same armor type as the Gundams, it is difficult to compare two different material types that consist of different substances. Based on the super robot games, I believe the Mazinkaiser has stronger armor than the Gundams though. Nonetheless, it is not invincible.

Yea...let's swing back to Gundam.

From the model thread we see that the GN Sword IIs actually has a beam saber/sword form, is that something just for the RD 00 or is that actually part of 00's canon armament?

[LoweGear]

That's part of the 00's canon armament - it was first mentioned in the HG 00 manual, and shown in lineart on the 1/100 manual.

[Urei]

Most probably another hidden weapon that Setsuna will not risk to show to his opponent.

How good is 0 Gundams mobility?I heard that it can only float,is this true?

The way it looked, 0 Gundam would have trouble out-maneuvering a normal Flag. Sure, a normal Flag probably can't hurt it with the weapons it got, but mobility wise 0 has to be much more inferior to Exia. If Exia is only slightly more maneuverable than a custom FLAG, the 0 has no chance.

LOL I am fine with people. I just can't stand hypocrites who tell others to "Get a life".

Back to the topic though, I am also wondering if 0 Gundam has the Trans-Am ability. Or is it because of 0 Gundam's GN drive that 00 cannot operate at 100% output?

The O Gundam's GN drive has Trans-Am, as seen when the Astraea Type F (which uses the 0 Gundam drive) went Trans-Am around the same time the Exia did. And the 0 Gundam's drive as seen in the various diagrams and displays is fully operational.

The Twin Drive System's faults lies with its innate complexity, being an untested theoretical system, rather than that of the 0 Gundam's drive. Asides from the subtle yet individual resonances as a result of their TD Blankets, the 5 GN Drives are all identical anyway.

The Gundam's traditional GN Drive system had been perfected slowly in the last 200 years. There had been 2 generation of prototypes before the 1st episode even showcased the Gundams.

In comparison, the Twin-Drive was literally untested. Aeolia wasn't even sure it would work, and only offered the most basic theory on how the Twin Drive could have functioned. The CB engineers had to literally design the entire thing themselves, and they only got it barely working after 4 short years.

This is what prototypes are suppose to be like. It's just that we are spoiled by recent Gundam series where prototype=working perfectly all the time.
(Real life example: The first true battle-tanks were employed near the end of WWI. It was considered a success, but half the tanks employed broke down during the engagement. That's NORMAL.)

So....was anyone surprised at the "beam fingers" of the black Gadessa-like unit? I mean that was quite a unique weapon and if memory serves me right there was no such waepon in any other gundam shows.

I was thinking of deathstrike in the xmen 2 movie.

Or simply Wolverine, anybody?
