This is a perfect metaphor for Gundam, on the surface it seems like a fun anime about fighting robots, but its so much more sophisticated than anything of its time, and theres never been anything that could live up to what Gundam represents and stands for.
This is why I love my country so much. You say "horrors" of war. In America we use terms like glory, honor, excitement, purity, and joy when describing war. We live for battle, to destroy the enemies of mankind. This is ever the difference between those who fight for themselves, and those who fight for others, even when it means fighting themselves sometimes.
@@ivonlee5482 Says a non American. It's not a race, it's not a species, it's not even a religion. It's a pact, a vow, and we make it the day we are born. We break it the day we attend hippie shit like Woodstock or Burning-man. War is all we are. Killing is all we are good for. The rest is delusion. Existence needed peace and justice, and out of that need we were born.
@@dragoneye6229 ...what about what I said is un-American? Listen here you little turd wagon, I am from Texas, the most American state in America. The America of America. Anyways... have you ever spoken to a combat veteran? Have you ever talked to a man who has taken lives in war? None of them would want their children to go through that. Im sure if you spoke to the right veteran, you would probably get punched in the mouth for saying such ignorant things. Listen, I know the direction you are striving for. To serve your country is honorable. To seek out evil and kill it is honorable. I know this is what you are trying to articulate. But understand that these tasks can be horrific as well. There is no glory in shooting a 16 year old kid in the face because he was drafted and put into the uniform of your enemy. There is no glory in gunning down a woman running towards your checkpoint, but you dont know if she has a bomb and you cant understand eachother because you speak different languages. Its not the fantasy you have in your head. Talk to some veterans. Read the Hagakure. And read the Bible. Once you get a real perspective get yourself to a recruiters office.
Ah yes. "WAR IS HELL AND EVERYONE YOU LOVE COULD DIE AT ANY MOMENT." The anime. And 12 year old me will never forget hearing the original version of this in Journey to Jaburo on PS2 while fighting Char. Such an amazing game.
@@HaloFTW55 And multiples more died when no one did anything instead. I'll take 30 million over the 60 that were killed in Russia prior to the war alone.
And what constitutes a socialist? If it’s legalized can I kill anyone I don’t like and justify it as them being socialist? Not sure how we’d identify a socialist, it’s not like they wear signs saying “Hey! I’m a socialist!”
listening to this song in Japanese without knowing the lyrics: oh man, this song is so uplifiting it rocks. listening to this with english lyrics and knowing what it means: oh shit, this is actually depression.
I find it funny this song sounds so godamned happy in Japanese, like if you didn't know Japanese it sounds like a party song or something. You imagine people dancing in the flowers, not blood and burnt out skeletons. Its mood whiplash: the song.
It's my understanding that he wasn't the fan (at least initially), but that it was his road-man who was a giga-fan and apparently on tour they'd have to make stops all over so their roadman could buy gunpla, so finally AWK asked about it and the dude info dumped on him for like a week straight
If that Z'gok gets any closer, the GM won't be able properly point his rifle, he could whip out his beam saber, but the Zeek probably got in a few hits by then. He ded.
Unfortunately, only the vital points of the mobile suit (not counting the cockpit funny enough) are made of gundarium. That GM is also the sniper variation, and has almost no time to react to that Z'gok bashing its pilot in through its back
"man I love how up beat this song is, I wonder what the lyrics are?"

Yep
"war is hell, as if i could ever forget that"
I gave this comment a thumbs down.
War...War never changes
Wow, its just depressed and rocks at the same time.
Such is Gundam, especially when Tomino directs.
Gundam in a nutshell
Great lyrics. Really says a lot about the horrors of war. I grew up watching the original Gundam and i will always cherish it.
Thunderbolt Gundam war is the way of the humanity I’ll say after seeing and being part of it 1st hand this song speaks truth

@@dragoneye6229 kid, wars are fought so the next generation can live in peace. No soldier wishes combat upon their children.

Let’s sing about the horrors of war to an upbeat musical score
Reminds me of “Hey ya”
Ain't that Gundam in a nutshell?
Ah yes. "WAR IS HELL AND EVERYONE YOU LOVE COULD DIE AT ANY MOMENT." The anime.
And 12 year old me will never forget hearing the original version of this in Journey to Jaburo on PS2 while fighting Char. Such an amazing game.
Dude it was AWFUL...but I still love it.
First time I heard it was in the jaburo arena on federation vs zeon would always play that map to listen to the song
The song of The One Year War
This song makes me depressed by humanity’s failure to find true peace.
You could always vote to legalize the killing of socialists, that helped the world move towards peace a TON last time.
@@dragoneye6229 Dunno. Last time that happened over 30 million people died in one of the largest if not the largest land conflict in history.
@@HaloFTW55 And multiples more died when no one did anything instead. I'll take 30 million over the 60 that were killed in Russia prior to the war alone.
60m? Not to sound weird but that’s greater than the number of dead during WWI alone. Any source to back that number?
And what constitutes a socialist? If it’s legalized can I kill anyone I don’t like and justify it as them being socialist?
Not sure how we’d identify a socialist, it’s not like they wear signs saying “Hey! I’m a socialist!”
I love this song and cover.
listening to this song in Japanese without knowing the lyrics: oh man, this song is so uplifiting it rocks.
listening to this with english lyrics and knowing what it means: oh shit, this is actually depression.
This dub is really surprisingly faithful to the Japanese original.
@@saitoren4061yep.
funny how the original japanese has more english comments and this english cover has more japanese comments
Gundam Rock was a japan exclusive.
Jaburo. Federation vs. Zeon DX. RX-79(g), 180mm cannon. Never got hit once, never wasted a shot.
Took the guncannon for that mission
The ground gundam was for the next one inside jaburo
They never stood a chance against either of us.
Neil Blackburn you guys are hilarious! Took the RX-78 classic style and went full feddy mode.
that cannon is fucking cancer when on a zeon playthrough and its spammed.
I prefer just using beam weapons or machine guns.
RX-78-2, UC Climax, defend Big Tray, defeat Zeon, destroy GAW.
Probably wasted a lot of shots but damn if UC CLimax isn't a fantastic game
This song hits different
Tomorrow is my birthday. I will have 17 year old and I'll listen this song to enjoy it.
Just another year and you can enlist!
Thank you, Gundam, for curing the stupidity of humanity
There is no cure. We endure until -
...That was a joke. Keep enduring asshole, even unto death! No one wants you dead.
@@ericgaius8791 HUZZAH!
This is really depressing to listen to...
Peace ✌🏻
I find it funny this song sounds so godamned happy in Japanese, like if you didn't know Japanese it sounds like a party song or something. You imagine people dancing in the flowers, not blood and burnt out skeletons. Its mood whiplash: the song.
The beginning of the song reminds me of Thunder Road by Bruce Springsteen
If Gundam had a national anthem, this song would definitely be it.
tomino is a master of lyrical dissonance. trollmino at his finest
英語は、良くわかりません。😅
しかし、オリジナルの曲臨場感と同じ。
『この曲、この音色、これが戦場よ‼️』
by自称、ランバ.ラる(ぱち者)
Imagine thinking the lyrics were happy
War is hell. It is to teach a lesson to humanity.
@@zylowolf7919 absolutely. And it will teach humanity over and over until they figure it out
@@Nostroman_Praetor except we won't.
Lalah, please help me, help me end my enemy
原曲より好きだな、ミリタリー系の映画で使われてそうな雰囲気って言うかなんていうか結構好き
I played this song for my soldiers before a mission in Afghanistan
@HydraliskKriegsMarine lmao
Are your soldiers piloting gundam now?
Isis has Zakus now?
Matthew Chin I wish but sadly M4’s is the best we had
Matthew Chin rangers lead the way
何これクソかっこいいww
mska rapyuta それな
this is awesomeee
English version sound more exciting than original one,love it
Probably because you can understand it
Is this Andrew W. K.’s version or am I crazy?
He’s a huge gundam fan and he released an album dedicated to gundam translation
It is! I think it's also in Federation vs. Zeon (if I remember correctly, it's been 10+ years since I've SEEN Gundam)
It's my understanding that he wasn't the fan (at least initially), but that it was his road-man who was a giga-fan and apparently on tour they'd have to make stops all over so their roadman could buy gunpla, so finally AWK asked about it and the dude info dumped on him for like a week straight
The news of the war of Russia and Ukraine brought me here.
Happy Memorial day everyone.
Kenneth Eaton Respect to all the soldiers! Dead and alive!
Such a fitting song for memorial day! :)
Yup.
お、降りられるのかよぉ！？
バイオハザードディレクターズカットエンディング曲や奇跡のビッグファイト風の曲なんで格好良いですね。
Sad
GM Ground Type are made from Gundarium so that GM should be fine, right ?
RIGHT?
It's probably going to lose his head. But hey that doesn't mean the GM's out for the count, the pilot might be a newtype
If that Z'gok gets any closer, the GM won't be able properly point his rifle, he could whip out his beam saber, but the Zeek probably got in a few hits by then.
He ded.
If an Acguy can knock of a ground gundam's head, I don't think the GM is gonna make it against a zgok
Unfortunately, only the vital points of the mobile suit (not counting the cockpit funny enough) are made of gundarium. That GM is also the sniper variation, and has almost no time to react to that Z'gok bashing its pilot in through its back
Lets not forget Z'gok has beam cannon in its claws
めちゃくちゃカックイイカバー曲
原曲と比べれば全然だけど、カバーとしては、最高
When I imagine destroying Shinigami from Bleach.
People who cant understand the og finding about the depressing lyrics : 😨
Here are the lyrics
池の水を抜く番組で使われてたのこれかな？
神楽里桜
多分これだと思います
