Do you remember Zoids? Would you want one?

Gun sniper, Because sniping from a mountain top is completely ridiculous to the point that it's genius. but also because Naomi Fluegel is.. Hold on how old is she.. 16?! She's a uh.. respectable, young woman, and a valued competitor. Yes.


or
Liger Zero: Panzer. Because shooting off that much artillery at once is absolute freakin madness. -And probably cost a country's worth of money to reload and supply.

My absolute favorite show when I was a kid. I would wake up every morning at 6am to watch it on cartoon network
Obviously some of my favorites are the blade liger and liger zero and I feel like I would need to pick them
But I think if I could have any zoid but those 2 I might pick the hunter wolf or König Wolf

Blast from the past. Been a long time since I thought of Zoids. So from my limited memory and a google search I narrowed down my old favorite between two. The Lightning Saix (which I think it is) or the Drei Panther. All I really remember from the episode is that the "test" for the new Zoid was being done in a dark forest and I think they were hunting the new Zoid to show off how strong it was.

Also on the question if I would want one. I'd rather be in the Gundam universe if I was going to be fighting in a giant robot.

Zoids are both resembling animals, which are high maintenance and draining your energy and personality,

and then Zoids are semi autonomus high tech mecha, which are also high maintenance and draining your energy in term of swapping part and recharge cost.

You got the best of both world, because they're fantasy, at the cost of the draining maintenence of both, which not only cost money and resources, but also your mental burden.

In Gundam Universe, like UC, If you just want to ride a movile suit, you dont have to be fighting enemies.

If you're a civillian with enough money, You can own a disarmed mobile suit and ride it like a personal space-plane to travel the space, so long as you are connected to the right people to obtain the mobile suit, and you can endure the quirks of disarmed mobile suit instead of average spaceship for space travel.

Like shown in Zeta Gundam, Reccoa Londo uses an disarmed old Zaku without weapon to infiltrate enemy spaceship, under the guise of refueling said Zaku while accidentally enter the enemy territory.

She just landed like civillian, coming there with the acted intention to refuel the disarmed civillian Zaku, and the ship crew there aren't suspecting Zeon or something, just surprised that someone are eccentric enough to ride old-Zaku for space travel instead of a plane.

I wasn't even thinking about surviving in the would avoiding the fighting. I was thinking more along the lines of space travel and adventure. In Gundam even with the show always being about war they went all over the place and saw all kinds of places.

In my memory of Zoids the main crew stayed on one planet and just drove around the desert in a giant sand crawler that looked like a snail. Not much for excitement or adventure outside of fighting.
