Finally checking out Space Warrior Baldios, which has sat in my backlog for too long!

Capping this thread with Aria! Tomino wanted Turn A Gundam to have a healing effect, to relieve stress and convey happiness, and Aria is like the quintessential healing ("iyashikei") anime.

Outside of the Tomino sphere, I definitely recommend Studio Ghibli's The Tale of the Princess Kaguya. Turn A Gundam draws upon the Tale of the Bamboo Cutter, with Dianna herself filling the role of Kaguya-hime. Tomino aimed to retell and continue the original story.

For Tomino's older titles, Xabungle and Dunbine are worth mentioning re: Turn A. Xabungle has some basic conceptual similarities and comic relief style. Dunbine also presents mismatches in technology, and it too has a larger focus on women in its plot.

During last week's podcast I was asked what non-Gundam anime I'd recommend to people who like Turn A, so I wanted to expand on that. I think Brain Powerd and King Gainer are obvious answers. The 1998-2003 "era" of Tomino's career is intertwined and tells an interesting tale.

Romi Park's first major voice role in anime was Kanan Gimms from Brain Powerd. She views it as a memorable role that allowed her to meet new people and learn many things. She's also a personal fan of the character.

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
