He did all of that, BECAUSE HE LOVED THE EARTH SO MUCH

… … … that he was willing to do whatever it took to restore her to it’s natural beauty.

… … … that when he won and saw the destruction, he despaired.

… … … that he would let himself be used by a FAGGOT to do it.

… … … that he allowed his pupil to share in his hopes, dreams, and despair

And in spite of all this, he still had the balls to look out for his former pupil, who is a like a child in terms of development.

THE SCHOOL OF THE UNDEFEATED OF THE EAST!
THE WINDS OF THE KING!
ZENSHIN!
KEIRETSU!
TEMPA KYOURAN!
LOOK, THE EAST IS BURNING RED!

MASTER ASIA. WE WILL NEVER FORGET.

I’ll never look at that phrase in the same way again T_T

And I now know why this moment is so memorable. It’s the apotheosis of Domon’s development (which leads to a pretty mindblowing moment for him later on), and marks the REAL END of G Gundam.  Urube being the biggus dickus and reclaiming the Devil Gundam for his nefarious purposes is part of what I’d like to call “G Gundam FINAL”.

You can’t fake real emotion. Sure, you can force it Maeda Jun-style, but to elicit a real emotion that isn’t forcefed to you, that takes real storytelling.

…Yes, every self-professed super robot fan has to watch G Gundam.
