Review:
We continue our month long look through Gundam. This week Gene brought in G Gundam for a look over. This alternate reality Gundam series which gives us a different perspective of competitive warfare. Despite its aged art style, its spectacular story kept me in to enjoying this series as much as its counterparts. We gave it the ol’ 8 out of 10.

Extra Drop:

Jason emails in with the extra drop. Some live action fun with two VA’s from Fullmetal Alchemist. First, Travis Willingham(Roy Mustang) chills out in The Anarchist Cookbook and Vic Mignogna apologizes for missing Metrocon last year, no worries hes supposed to be there this year.
