    Very surprised that retelling an AU 0079 was such a big part of this but then I also kind of wish that plot had time to breathe as the whole thing. Char plotting against the Zabis and the Federation being the main course is just too good.

    Perhaps the most essential film in the "optimist dating a pessimist" canon.

    The belief this has in the potential of humanity is really something. The film shows allies and enemies alike cynically exploiting humanity, treating them like bombs ready to deploy, as resources. Our hero stares at the moment of his creation amongst an act of self sacrifice and sees a potential for a future that we are called to believe in as well.

    When I sat down to watch this, I expected to be delighted and comforted by a plucky idealist.

    I did not, however, expect to see the greatest Truck ever portrayed on film.

    I might watch this one yearly, Itami can hit a tone more reliably than anyone I've ever seen and it just works works works.

    Everyone in this is glowingly real and I loved the time I spent with each of them.
