I clicked the link but no one's really explaining what happened; I'm not a Gundam guy at all so I've no idea who any of the characters are, but how was the villain defeated?
With the power of love and the god gundam.
Ah, thanks
This scene is basically at the end of the series, so obviously spoiler alert.

Thanks
Hmm....at first I thought 'well the cheese isn't SO bad; I've seen this before....', but then the love-love thing and my face nearly broke I was cringing so bad
Although on the upside I do appreciate the evil gundam being an actual monstrous creature
The horse though...
The horse had its own Gundam and was used to ride off into the sunset.
You have to keep in mind that he was borderline ignoring this girl for the whole series to go play karate with his friends while she took care of keeping everything running.
Some of the stuff he said was definitely deep (I got the impression that he was mentioning they were being raised as soldiers and never got the chance to be human beings), but I've never watched the show so I don't really know their histories
The show does some interesting stuff*, but at the end of the day it's more of a super silly robots doing karate thing. It's still super compelling in a weird way, though
*It's the first alternate universe Gundam show (from 1994), and manages to recontextualize the themes of the original Tomino Gundam shows/movies with a soft power competition in an "end of history" world that still manages to impoverish smaller nations, consolidate power in
, and crush the working class of the Earth sphere.
