I honestly think that the Titans were trying to a sort of bad cop and good cop approach just in a stupid manner. The bad cop started things off by beating the crud out of the subject which after the subject recovered, a bit, following that beating the good cop came in to try gentle persuasion with the Subject. Instead of a joint interrogation with both a bad cop and good cop questioning the subject. Honestly. If they lead off with a basic questioning of Van the Titans may have convinced him to give up the SD Card. However, they instead started with beating him up.
DUH. Okay. I really should have checked before I wrote that comment. My apologies! The rest of the series is all Light Novels apparently. I really wish the rest of the Advance of Zeta series become a Manga because there are plenty of amazing stories in the light novels. Not just the rest of the Traitor of Destiny.
First time watching Zeta, it bugged me how three ships could take down a massive army. Now it's painfully believable since the Titans didn't value the law, skill, or others. They were just an army of thugs with a large arsenal.
Three Ships? Are you thinking Gundam SEED because while the AEUG wasn't that big they still had more then three ships. They had the Argama, the Radish, the Irish, and several Salamis Kai Class ships. And that is most basic fleet lineup we see them having in the series without any other addition from other sources like a couple more Argama Class ships and a few extra Irish Class ships. That said. Meanwhile, on Earth Karaba only had the one Garuda Class Aerial Carrier Plane in the series but Advance of Zeta Traitor of Destiny saw them sporting the modified Zanzibar Class Cruiser Keraunos plus I think (??) a couple other extra forces.
The 3 Ships Alliance? To be fair, they weren't fighting everyone at once and they did have both Freedom, Justice, Strike, Buster and several Strike Daggers plus the METEOR Kits, so it's not like they were lacking firepower! Not to mention the fact the Freedom and Justice were nuclear powered, something unheard of in Cosmic Era thanks to the N Jammers and the Gundams' N Jammer Cancellers!
@@CD-Gaming Correct. The one major reason why the TSA was able to fight during the Second Battle of Jachin Due was that one, both the Alliance and ZAFT were most often fighting each other then the TSA Force, two, the TSA were only going after the Alliance's Nuclear Weapons and ZAFT's GENESIS Weapon Platform, and finally, three, they had two of the most powerful mobile suits yet developed the Freedom and the Justice. They then had two of the next tier mobile suit designs in the Strike and the Buster along with a Strike Clone in the form of the Strike Rouge which helped them quite a bit. Also the TSA had somewhere around a dozen MBF-M1 Astrays, not Strike Daggers which are the Alliance main unit at the time, supporting them which can be argued to be one of the two best standard mobile suit design of the First Bloody Valentine War, the other being ZAFT's GuAIZ. Though the M1 was superior over that of the GuAIZ in one major thing in that it could be piloted by pretty much every pilot while the standard GuAIZ was a hard mobile suit to pilot.
@@robertdrexel2043 The Strike was the Strike Rouge, wasn't it? "Astrays"...? Okay, it has been a while since I last watched SEED... Also, cus of its light colour scheme and to wind my mate up I like to call it the "Strike Rose", arguing it looks more pink than red! Plus, it's still French, so!
I don't think you're supposed to assume that what you see focused on in the show is literally the entirety of all assets fighting under the banner ofthe AEUG or Karaba, any more than what you see on screen represents the entirety of the Titans' forces.
As always side stories and spins offs are all criminally underrated. How many years did it take for crossbone to get traction and we still don't have an anime for it. Kinda surprised they chose to animate Hathaway's flash first.
Well the main issue lies in the fact SUNRISE & Bandai are not the actual copyright owners of Crossbone, Sentinel, AOZ etc. Crossbone is own by Kadokawa, the same way Sentinel is own by Model Grapix, AOZ by Hobby Dengeki... Did you Know Kotobukiya is the actual owner of the The O, and the reason why it took so long to get the MG release or the fact why AOZ model kits are mostly are P. Bandai simple Hobby Dengeki reach an license agreement of exclusive releases..
According to the Light Novels, they first join the Anti-Federation Group Keraunos which later merges with Karaba during the start of the Gryps War then in the final months of the war the remainder of the former Keraunos Group become members of the AEUG becoming the Delphi Group flying off the Salamis Kai Class Cruiser Delphi.
When you peel the image of a peaceful and noble Federation away, what you have left is the Titans in all their depravity. The AEUG made a mistake when it chose to just put the image back instead of becoming the agent of change that would have satisfied the Federation and Zeon and brought peace.
@@arx3516 Going straight for the genocide option, huh? That’s why the AEUG gained so much support against the Titans, since being too brutal to your foes causes others to fear you and then plot against you.
@@MrJH101 realistically it makes your opponents too scared to even think about plotting agsinst you. There's plenty of examples in real world history. Cartago delenda est.
@@arx3516 It works when one’s government is an authoritarian dictatorship that has full autonomy over people’s freedoms and the information of the press is under government control as they see fit. However, the Earth Federation is a democracy with free people living in it and a bureaucracy leading it that does not (at least openly) adhere to such practices. They know that the people living within the other colonies that had chosen not to join Zeon’s rebellion would not take too kindly to such genocidal behavior from the EF. An enemy nation has already bean defeated and has ultimately surrendered; to accept victory gracefully makes you look like the good guys, but to keep fighting on (including killing all civilians) even after you’ve won the war will ruin any chance at being seen as the “good guy” ever again. Characters such as Amuro Ray, Bright Noa, and the other characters on the White Base would also have not taken too kindly to such an action and probably would have openly rebelled if the EF military was ordered to murder all the civilians of Side 3. This is also why so many veterans from both sides of the One Year War, including everyone from the White Base, rebelled against the Earth Federation when their leadership turned into the Titans. Not trying to rip on your theory, but the premise that “No Zeon=No Problem” only works if one thinks that Zeon is the root of all the problems. The show makes it clear that Side 3’s rebellion was merely a byproduct of the Federation’s treatment of spacenoids. The AEUG was an entirely different organization from Zeon, in that the AEUG had no Zabi family in charge of them to ruin their ideals, but their cause was the same continuation of this fight because of how Earth continued to treat spacenoids (even worse than they did before really).
in a hostile interrogation like in this manga likely the only smart option is take the interrogators options away from them. for instance casing your self near lethal brain damage. at that point the interrogator likely wont have any option.
This manga does sound great and it sucks that there is no more after this point. I would have loved to read more of this because it's really does sound like an interesting read. Nice job as usual Kararot!
Like I mentioned in another Comment. Both Van and Danica end up joining the Anti-Federation Group Keraunos who are the ones who saved Van from the Titans mentioned in the end of this video. They later end up merging together with that of Karaba before finally during the final months of the war joining the AEUG and in the aftermath of the war becoming members of a crew for an AEUG Salamis Kai Class Cruiser, the Delphi. Though I admit however that all of this information comes from very tiny bits we get from a few pages on the Gundam Wiki so take them with a grain of salt.
Everyone acts like things such as this prove the Titans (and by extension the Federation) were worse than Zeon but if anything thing just proves the Titans were only worse at hiding their "mistakes" compared to Zeon. There was just as much if not more backstabbing with Zeon, they just didn't do it so blatantly out in the open like the Titans *looks over at M'Quve and Ginias*
Danica proabably already was working with anti-titans groups before this event, considering how she distracted her brother, who was also giving a bad vibe to be completely honest.
Gundam is such a frustrating thing as someone in the west. Japanese is such a complicated language to read that it's a huge leap to push further into the expanded universe of lns and manga. One day maybe.
There are websites that have translated a lot of the Mangas and probably the light novels. I know they have moon hyndam but I'm not sure if they have all the advance of zeta Mangas and novels translated.
Will you ever talk about the wholesome Gunpla manga 'HG ni Koisuru Futari' ('Two People in Love with HG'), or any of the side story Gunpla manga of Beginning G, Build Fighters and Divers?
I feel insulted seeing this lady in the comic smiling, and I wasn't even the guy in handcuffs getting beaten bloody. This is the kind of situation I would spit blood in someone's eye. Screw em.
Maybe Anti federation group was also looking for the SD card already after hearing about the death of the reporter had a mobile-suit group on standby because the knew the Titans were in the area so when they saw a distressed Federation cadet running from the academy probably asked some questions, and in exchange for the SD card did a smash and grab on the Titan vehicle.
The disparity is nowhere near the level of galactic civil war as AEUG get plenty of support from regular Fed Forces on par with Titan if not more. The roles is kinda reserve as AEUG is still loyal while Titan about to go rogue
What a damn shame this won't continue to be written and finished. I might try finding the light novel in this case cause this is such a great story. Also, Van has a cool name...👀
Danica is a very beautiful anime girl, she could be the next candidate to waifu of the year if this manga have a anime adaptation in some future. But now this looks like just a dream, but maybe it could be true some day (that and the Crossbone Gundam adaptation too 😅).
So yea, after digging out why this manga is Axed. It seems it was because they decided to REBOOT the whole AoZ and hence making this manga kind of non canon. So they axed it and instead place the new AoZ in it's stead.
Oh look, the elite force doing stupid things and acting all arrogantly to the civilian population and/or other branchs of the military got them ill will and created a chain reaction that would bite them in the ass. Who would've though! Sigh... you know, like Kakarot said, if they handled this with words and finesse first and brawl later, things would've developed in a possible better way for them.
I always enjoyed the more personal stories in the Gundam multiverse, too bad this didn't get a proper finale. I'm curious about the light novels, but sadly I don't read katakana so I'll just have to hope to find a synopsis somewhere. Of note, I do enjoy these manga recaps and I hope you do more.
man, it's a tragedy that this won't be completed. I hope you're able to find the light novel's on your next visit to Japan. If you do, please share the ending with us?
Here's my take on part 2, after Van and Danica being tracked down by the Titans her brother is being told lies how they betray him and is filled with rage to confront those two again. Probably it will result in one of them dying but I don't know who it's going to be.
Hey Kakarot, any chance you could do a Gundam lore video for Gundam EXA? There’s a ton of story from almost every timeline from the franchise, and I’d love to hear your take on it.
On one hand, yes. Had this continued, not telling him would come back and bite them in the ass in the long run; when he’s in an official Titans uniform, of course. On the other, how would that conversation go with him already upbeat and hyped about getting into the Titans? What happens if he ends up interrogated by the Titans lady too? A lesser man without a waifu to believe in would talk in the presence of someone like that. I’m joking about that part but the chance that things can go horribly wrong if he knew was probably reason enough not to tell him even if it means letting him join the ranks of the big-mouth brutes of the Titans.
In the light novels from what I understand. Ernest becomes Van's sort of rival and the two battle with one another more then a few times. I also got the impression from the tiny tidbits I know about the series from the Gundam Wiki that they each managed to destroy each other's mobile suits a couple times each. Danica also gets captured at one point and Ernest tries to protect her from brutal interrogation by the rest of the Titans. However, that does not work out all that much. However, from those mentioned tidbits I got from the Gundam Wiki says that series also does show that not every Titan in the organization is an outright bastard or an evil person. Calling one of the Titan pilots chasing our heroes the big brother of another character. Or something like that.
It's also the only story line where AEUG/Karaba forces use Hi-zacks a custom model fitting this being AOZ but generally the Rebel EFF forces avoided using any suits in the RMS line the Rick Dias being the exception
man... would've been a more interesting story to animate than the divers series. I really like the side stories of UC... Gundam Ball... well, not all of them! but the side story games I've played really have nice stories.

Questionable decision not telling the friend how bad the Titans are
On one hand, yes. Had this continued, not telling him would come back and bite them in the ass in the long run; when he’s in an official Titans uniform, of course. On the other, how would that conversation go with him already upbeat and hyped about getting into the Titans? What happens if he ends up interrogated by the Titans lady too? A lesser man without a waifu to believe in would talk in the presence of someone like that. I’m joking about that part but the chance that things can go horribly wrong if he knew was probably reason enough not to tell him even if it means letting him join the ranks of the big-mouth brutes of the Titans.
In the light novels from what I understand. Ernest becomes Van's sort of rival and the two battle with one another more then a few times. I also got the impression from the tiny tidbits I know about the series from the Gundam Wiki that they each managed to destroy each other's mobile suits a couple times each. Danica also gets captured at one point and Ernest tries to protect her from brutal interrogation by the rest of the Titans. However, that does not work out all that much. However, from those mentioned tidbits I got from the Gundam Wiki says that series also does show that not every Titan in the organization is an outright bastard or an evil person. Calling one of the Titan pilots chasing our heroes the big brother of another character. Or something like that.
Zeon = Germany
Earth Federation = *America*
I don't think so, your Federation feels more like the Soviet Union with an American facade do it.
I wish the manga writer did make a part 2 maybe with enough support and money plus time we might get part 2
Damn this would have been such a damn good story why why do all the good storys not get adapted completely.
Gundam newbie here, do they appear in Zeta or any other future titles? I just finished 0083.
No they are manga only
I feel like they would've join the aeug
It's also the only story line where AEUG/Karaba forces use Hi-zacks a custom model fitting this being AOZ but generally the Rebel EFF forces avoided using any suits in the RMS line the Rick Dias being the exception
Still sad this never got continued...
Any chance I could send you some pictures of a Custom Gunpla to get your opinion? As very much a beginner, that would mean a lot to me.
A TITAN exposé.
Question how andrew waltfeld survive?
DAMN they joining the AEUG RIGHT?
man... would've been a more interesting story to animate than the divers series.
I really like the side stories of UC... Gundam Ball... well, not all of them! but the side story games I've played really have nice stories.
Does anyone know what happens at the very end of this story? Like, what happens to Van and Danica at the very end of the novel.
How does the novel end?
Reasonable assumption they ended up with AEUG then?
Or Karaba. Or they just went "Fuck the military life" and just chose a peaceful civi life
I want to commit seppuku because there's no continuation to this great manga 😭
I love story time 😁
How the hell did they
Damn, Ok
is the manga based on a light novel?
Yes
@@miragebangbravern thanks
