This metaphysical scene hit me hard. It feels like Tomino doing a self-examination and providing commentary on his mental state, and it's Hime talking—she's made in the spirit of Tomino's wife, who he heavily relied on during his depression.
Turn A Gundam #6 - "The Forgotten Past"
Dianna is formally introduced and her oddly similar appearance to Kihel is made clear. Loran excavates a chain with a rocket-powered spiked ball, in a direct reference to the Gundam Hammer from the original MSG.

"crush" isn't my word of choice, but I feel like this isn't all that surprising if you've known me for a while. https://t.co/qSvi9RydhH

Finished Dear Brother. Absolute master class in shoujo melodrama. I say this with little reservation: it's one of the best TV anime I've seen. Hats off to Ikeda and Dezaki.
I finally saw the "Be Strong!" scene in Dear Brother. I must admit I was not prepared for how emotional it'd make me. It's a powerful father-son bonding moment that encapsulates the positivity in the show's messaging: life isn't easy, but you can do it. Be strong.
