Anime: Kidou Senshi Gundam Narrative 45656e

Animation quality is mediocre compared to the Gundam Unicorn movies especially the facial expressions of humans. Some flashback scenes are a rehash of old UC series. Story was ok but not exceptional and doesn't really add to the Unicorn storyline. Some of the cast in Gundam Unicorn made an appearance but all of them are just extras in the story. Music inserts are suprisingly good picks. If there's one thing I enjoyed in this movie it's the OST and the background music. The sound effects used are still the same with gundam Unicorn especially the sounds of the beam rifles and beam sabers. The villain was annoying, and given his background, You would think that the Neo Zeon remnants would have kept him under lock and key. But no, they gave a mentally unstable cyber newtype a Sinanju Stein and a Neo Zeong. This movie feels like it's just made to promote the Gundam Phenex model kits more so than the usual aggressive advertising that Bandai makes. Maybe because the model kits really expensive because of the gold plate injections that they had to push the fans to buy it not to mention the fact that the Phenex is just another redesign of the Unicorn. If given the choice I rather not have watched this movie because it feels like my high regard to the Unicorn movies dropped a bit and I felt disappointed after watching this.
