Fun Gundam Fact: In a limited Turn A-focused edition of Mobile Suit Illustrated published shortly after Syd Mead’s death, an interview with Tomino reveals that Sochie Heim is actually based off of his daughter, Yukio!
Finished Turn a Gundam
REALLY good not just as a Gundam show but overall, it feels a bit like Miyazaki trying to make a Gundam series with amazing slice of life episodes 🐄🧺and strong execution of anti-war themes but Tomino has always done that well, the cast is well developed
Mobile war history Gundam burai: Shonen d'action dramatique et fantastique (LES GROS ROBOTS) d'Hajime Yatate, Yoshiyuki Tomino (qu'on ne présente plus, le 1er est le pseudo de l'équipe Sunrise et l'autre est l'oméga boss de Gundam) et Kazuma Isobe (gundam IBO)
Sunrise wouldn't let Tomino make a female Gundam protagonist so he gave us this they/them cutie instead. Still a big W to Gundam. Happy Turn A Day!
@JudgeDrokk Atomino is a brilliant game.
An Amiga one I actually had the original of.
It's a lot harder if you don't know you can press space to change the bonds, when there is more than one option.
@daph2theb Some random Amiga suggestions for tonight..
Elfmania - an immaculately presented fighter
Ugh - the game is .. okay. I just like the intro. 😄
Zany Golf - it's totally mini golf. An old one, but a good one.
Atomino - a puzzle game that kinda fits in the same family as Pipemania.
A common thematic thread within all Tomino works I've encountered thus far is positioning "Malice" as the enemy of mankind, all life.
Our progress, our efforts to grow and become better will stagnate if we allow hatred to perpetuate.
Hate is not unconquerable, but it is fierce.
Wrote psychologist Tamaki Saito (who also coined the term "hikikomori"), “Tomino didn’t expect this reaction; he simply wanted to make his characters more realistic and human. But he inadvertently stimulated desire for a fictional character.” https://t.co/2bJ9FyfVCG (5/x
Turn A Gundam #27 - "Midnight Sunrise"
This ep provides an intense depiction of the devastating effects of nuclear weapons. It aired weeks after the 1999 Tokai JCO nuclear accident, a coincidence Tomino describes as "subconsciously reflecting the times."

Show Gets Trolled (1983- Directed by Yoshiyuki Tomino)
If they have to remake OG Gundam I prefer if they adapted it from the Tomino Gundam 0079 Novels instead of The Origin Manga since that way they are not erasing the original Gundam.
This is one of my favorite quotes in anime, and there's a lot to unpack here if one views Corin's words as Tomino's own inner monologue. He wanted Turn A Gundam to be a new and accessible hit, and despite its poor TV ratings he did his best not to succumb to the criticism.
