FUCK YOU JACOBA FUCKING AON. Goddamnit, I’m having bad PTSD about Tales of Neo Byston Well just looking at her, even if she looks totally different in Wings of Rean, because even in other universes Jacoba is a lying fucking bitch who does stupid shit as easily as she breathes. Goddamnit. Her death was the best part of Dunbine, but even then she fucked everyone over from the grave as it turned out. IIRC they actually bring up a bit of that bullshit in this game even though Neo Byston Well isn’t in the game, although fortunately none of the aftereffects show up.
Ah, yes, Shinjiro Sakomizu. Tomino shooting across the bow at Imperialists yet again.
That Garou Ran line always gets a giggle out of me.
One of the things UX did to Wings of Rean that really helps is it straightened out the plot a lot. In WoR, Asap is on the enemy side for half the show, which wouldn’t have been a thing if it had its full episode count (Was supposed to be 13, and got cut to 6, so everything is rushed as fuck with no time for development.). In UX, he leaves pretty quickly.
Petition to always use Zhang Fei for BAKURETSU DAIRAIJA and CHOURAIKOU purposes. (And Daunt, but shhhh!)
Nanajin is pretty good, and its upgrade is better, but Asap unfortunately suffers from the issue of the secret he unlocks being much, much better. He’s a particularly broken unit though, so no worries! The real value though is his song, because UX’s My Fate is fucking beautiful.
But oh boy, buckle up, there’s no breaks on the Mark Destiny train. Though unfortunately the titular unit is out of business… but still, we always can remember what it looks like through these three expert drawings!
