The thing that separates Gundam X and Gundams like the Virtue is that despite the commonplace of gerobi weapons in gundam, they exemplify the gravity of having such a weapon with the time required to bring them to bear. On the other side, Gundams like Wing Zero and Strike Freedom throw them out with almost painful ease and it feels like nothing.
Double X is easily my favorite AU Gundam, from its design, the way it fires its Twin Satellite Cannon, its just awesome and heavily underrated too thanks to Gundam X never leaving Japan.
@@rx-105xigundam2true it's 3 of the released Gundam series alongside Gundam Wing and Mobile Fighter G Gundam to be dubbed in Tagalog in 90's and it's hard to find the Tagalog Dub of this series now.
@@parkkhan7448 The only tagalog dub I managed to find complete was 00 from TV5. Sadly I'm sure the AU trilogy tagalog dub was never fully archived in the internet, as that was the time when Filipino's were less tech savvy. Some of it is probably lost to time or just hanging around in some TV guys house. Which is sad considering these are the voices of my childhood, I can't even hear them now.
The X-Divider is severely underrated. While not as powerful as the GX in terms of raw firepower, it made up for the gap with its relatively higher versatility. Another thing worth noting is that the X-Divider was made from scrap parts collected by Kid Salsamille... yes, scrap.
Same here preferring XDv over the X and DX for the versatility, as the satellite cannon seemed too conditional to be an effective weapon. I was wondering as the kit had WW2 style stick grenades, were those ever used in the series?
Dam how i wish there was more Gundam X out there. It was and remains a great departure from the standard Gundam formula and disavowed the importance of "chosen people"
Welcome back! And ooooo GX let's go ooooo. I've always loved the GX and DX in design. GX just had that bad ass sheathe look with the satellite cannon, DX has proper wings. I also like Garod as a main character. Teen finding his way and doing what he can to help out those he cares for. Had a very wholesome relationship with Tifa.
I was hoping that the Frost Brothers would've turned themselves around. What a letdown. Oh well. I think Gundam X is an underrated gem. Sure, its ending was really rushed, but it manages to give closure to the major conflicts in the series.
Im very happy to see you posting videos again. But more importantly I hope everything is going better for both health and your decision about university
I read aomewhere that the Double X's extreme heat dispersion when using the Twin Satellite Cannons is so hot that it can act as a barrier to defend the DX from enemy suits.
Welcome back! I'm glad to see you're doing doing better, and I will pray for your continued good health. Also loved the vid, the gundam x series i feel is really underappreciated, and I am happy to see some love thrown its way ^_^ Jeep up the great work ^_^
That is the moon out is a very fancy joke and in my school vr game the gundam dx is a unit that got the worse end of the stick as being 1 of 5 units that shows up with the Ariel rebuild anyway it had a lore breaking bit where the dx used equestrian magic to override the system and fired the twin satellite cannons during it Goalius clothesline it before fire and made the shot scim Phobos 1 of mars moons and blow a hole through Jupiter and the blast hits and destroyed a els class g dreadship and caused the els to send in there new whiplash units (modified gnxs 4 that have a heat rod that only electrocute the mobile suit and the Voltage gose to 10 million bolts of electricity) and then garrod is almost electrocuted to death if it went from the unexpected arrival of the f.cking frost brothers (you know that in South park the fractured butthole game the alternate human kite enemy appears and he's a useless dork that what there role in the game)
I really like this episode, because Gundam X was one of my favorite gundam series. Recently built a reissue of HG the gundam x divider. I hope we got HG Leopard and Leopard destroy soon, the NG was just a sad build not to mention the built figthers edition. Maybe an HLMS for leorpard soon 🫠
The Gundam X divider is so cool thank about it it can be a shield it can be a being gun and a shield booster it gives the banshee norn shield a run for it’s money 😅
I think the satellite Canon can still be used during the day for as long as the moon is in orbit or that the moon base can detect the gundam X to be within its orbital range. So day or night it can fire...
Before the 7th Space War, it used to have deflection stations in space to allow Gundam X to collect Microwave beam from literally anywhere on Earth or in a bigger range when it's in space. However, those stations were destroyed during the 7th Space War which leaded to Gundam X not able to use Satellite Cannon during daytime anymore...
Alright, finally! Gundam X getting some love here. Satellite tech has certainly developed over the years here in the real world. Won't be long before lasers get strapped onto them, hopefully with no uses for destruction.
I may sound crazy but hear me out, Twin Satellite Cannon + Twin GN Drive System + More advanced cooling system for TSC = Rapid Fire high power Satellite Cannons not to mention Trans-Am which increases the MS's performance by 3x. That would make the already powerful DX nearly unstoppable in terms of long range firepower and CQC.
@@zethythonix I also thought adding Destiny Gundam's weapons would definitely increase DX or should I say GN-9900 DX's versatility on the battlefield and GN Drives provide amazing propulsion on all terrain types also it makes DX fly.
1 If X or Double X were in universal Century Era, that Gundam would've been useful for stopping Axis falling down to Earth to save all of Humanity from the cold ice age. 2 I like the Double X, it's fire power must be powerful as Wing Zero's buster rifle.
I like and love this video a lot and keep up the good work because you are the man and take some rest because you deserve it and take your time for the next video. 👍
I hope in the near future maybe we could get the qubely/demeter line sorry to comment it just hyped for that video I know it will be great like the rest you have and will make in the future!
maybe its just me, but its kinda funny or maybe intentional (?) Double X despite being upgrade, its booster looks boring or feels more retro versus Gundam X. Gundam X in earlier episodes use its X-shaped microwave as floating system that also shines when used, way cooler imo. while DX booster on its back looks tiny and doesnt feel it doesnt generate enough thrust to fly around on atmosphere. altho X shaped microwave thing can hinder too if they need to fly from tighter space
you mention that the UNE developped three secret MS (gundams) but forgot the Gundam Belphagor which was developped at the same time. You talk about the weakness of the satellite cannon (needing to have an uninterrupted path to the Moon) but forget the reason why it's called satellite cannon. During the war, there were several relay satellites in orbit that could redirect the microwave beam towards a GX even if the Moon wasn't out. After the war though, most/all of the satellites were destroyed or just malfunctionned, but the satellite system's weakness was not a design flaw, so you can't really say that the other weapons were made to solve those weaknesses.
@@r1l426 you can only say I missed information, but saying I “misinformed” feels like a stretch. Also, the reason I explained the weaknesses is necessary, just because I know the name doesn’t mean I don’t need to explain the weaknesses. Edit: in case you are new here, I often skip MS if they are not in the same line, for example, this video is about Gundam X, Belphagor is Virsago and Ashtaron’s line, so I didn’t mention it is completely normal, as the protagonist of this video is Gundam X, that line of UNE’s development is only serves as intro for transition sentences.
i think the idea that the satellite canon can only be fired at night on earth is wrong. If i remember it right, data about gundam x clearly says it can use the satellite canon for as long as the moon is within orbit from the Gundam X's location day or night.
According to SD G Generation games, before the A.W. era begun, there was central stations to twist and redirect the microwave to Gundam X, making sure it can fire the Satellite Cannon at anytime. After the war, all the stations are doomed, that's why it can only be fired right after dawn, night or before sunset
@@zethythonixI know that but in the series the satellite system was actively seeking the location of the GX although clearly the battle was happening at night. but wouldn't the satellite system could do the same during the day for as long as the GX is in a location where the moon is in orbit? the series also does not state that the satellite canon can only be used at night. or did I miss that? hehehe
The AW timeline is horribly underutilized. For what is essentially a stand-alone series, it had a lot of personality and an immense amount of potential for pre- and post-war stories. I hope Sunrise gives it another look at some point. It's nowhere near as shit as SEED, after all... and they give SEED almost as much attention as Unicorn.
If you've never heard of it yet, Gundam X had a sequel manga called Under The Moonlight, which takes place 7 years after the end of the series finale. It's a really good read, I highly recommend it.

Nice work as always, it is real good to see you back in the saddle and sounding healthier. I can't wait for the next one

It's finally getting it's time in the spot light.

lets goooo!!!!
Welcome back. I'm sure a lot of people waiting for a new video and here it is. Awesome video as always, i always enjoy watching you H.L.M.S video
It's nice to see you come back!
Yessss been waiting for Gundam x : )
Gundam Double X... One of the few MS no one hates. (Mainly because I've never ever seen anyone who has negative opinions on it)
I read aomewhere that the Double X's extreme heat dispersion when using the Twin Satellite Cannons is so hot that it can act as a barrier to defend the DX from enemy suits.
Started watching gundam x and im in love with the gundam x and the double x , SATELLITE CANNON...FIRE!

Welcome Back!!! Now I want to look for my old K.O. Gindam X model kits one day and finish the painting... or repainting of them.
Thank You for coming back
sick man!
I'm actually rewatching this as of this writing, currently on the Double X' debut arc.
Glad to see you back your videos are the best
Always the best quality
Can’t wait to see more
The king is back love the vids im so glad you are doing well and first somehow im top comment no2
feels like we waited forever!
Thanks for making this, looking forward to more X content as wel.
Also thanks for coming back. Was happy to see this upload.
the x moah & x jumoah are really good tributes to the X
Glad to have you back buddy! Happy NU year!
man I feel a rg xgundam coming
Finally another H.L.M.S. Video
Thanks for making this video, it's good to see Unit 3's history brought to light.
Its good to have you back.. keep it up ive missed your videos
I really like this episode, because Gundam X was one of my favorite gundam series. Recently built a reissue of HG the gundam x divider. I hope we got HG Leopard and Leopard destroy soon, the NG was just a sad build not to mention the built figthers edition. Maybe an HLMS for leorpard soon 🫠
weird they haven't remade Leopard considering the existence of Leopard Da Vinci.
U BACK!!!!!!!! Hey Z, Happy New Year, man!
Long time haven't check up your channel and watch all your amazing videos about gunplas and history lessons about the productions of mechas
I just posted a new episode, go and check it, it’s the Astraea
Always love the history lesson.. Good job mate
Very minor note, Unit 3 still has the hyper bazooka carries over from Divider.
Excellent job 👍👌
34:04 ig you would describe Rick's gx as gundam build-esque
Thank you for explaining the whole story. I'm lazy to go through it again
Welcome back . Thanks for this.i realy enjoy it....happy newyear
Another great video! Always so darn informative too. You do some damn good research bro, keep it up! Hope your feeling better as well!
When the world need him the most, He Return with Style
Oh nice some Gundam X goodness.
The Gundam X divider is so cool thank about it it can be a shield it can be a being gun and a shield booster it gives the banshee norn shield a run for it’s money 😅
I don't understand why they keep the satellite cannon for the type-3, it would make more sense to equip it with the divider parts
I think the satellite Canon can still be used during the day for as long as the moon is in orbit or that the moon base can detect the gundam X to be within its orbital range. So day or night it can fire...

1 If X or Double X were in universal Century Era, that Gundam would've been useful for stopping Axis falling down to Earth to save all of Humanity from the cold ice age.

It's pretty funny how a newtype-use mobile suit has non-newtype pilots most of the time.
TBF, Garrod and Jamil shared the same period of piloting time
Always like your video keep the good work
Thanks for the video
I like and love this video a lot and keep up the good work because you are the man and take some rest because you deserve it and take your time for the next video. 👍
The sheer lack of AW kits available in both HG and MG is unbelievably disappointing. It’s my favorite non-U.C. series.
I hope in the near future maybe we could get the qubely/demeter line sorry to comment it just hyped for that video I know it will be great like the rest you have and will make in the future!
I lovr Garrod as a protagonist.
Happy to see you back you sure your okay? Is your fire religt?
I assume gundam Belphagor will be put in with Virsago and Ashtaron episode?
Correct!
I very want watch H.L.M.S Episode Shenlong Gundam very much
What is gundam x's energy source after the satellite got destroyed
@ Zethythonix are you gonna revisit the Pale riders to finish it with the code fairy data?
Yes, I will do a video to revisit every missed MS in the first twenty episodes

Yeah... but probably in the episode 30-ish time
