Why don't they just make the whole Gundam out of the Bright slaps?

Bright is a minor Newtype himself, it's just that his only psychic ability is determining the perfect time to slap the shit out of teenager mobile suit pilots.
This meme long outlived its welcome, it's a well known fact Bright's slap only made things worse every time. He's also a terrible father and husband btw

>>23896302 despite occasional flashes of absolute stupidity, /m/ is still pretty decent as far as Gundam discussions go.
>>23896311 /m/ is so bad. The majority of users at this point are ESL, a lot of times the humor doesn't translate, and it makes having a conversation unbearable.

>>23896315 Oh i am sure having ESLs is worse than zoomgroids who barely communicate coherently and never bother much to looks things up
I also don't have a problem with zoomers. They like the Sopranos, are bringing back physical media, and they post on websites in their native language.

>>23893658(OP) Didn't you watch the last episode of MSG? It is literally a plot point. Char lures Amuro into a swordfight instead of a mech fight for this exact reason: because being able to sense things coming does not mean the newtype's physical body has the requisite muscle and reaction speed to evade it. Physically moving their body out of the way of an attack takes a lot more than pushing a control stick forwards. Especially when it's an adolescent boy matched up with a military officer who's presumably been through some form of boot camp involving a physical training regimen.
>>23896262 It was nice to seem him get 'corrected' by the titans and gradually realize throughout Z and ZZ that slapping doesn't work.
>>23896394 Anyone younger than me is a zoomer. That's the way it always has been and always will be. Besides, I refuse to call the worst generation 'alpha'.
>>23903810 IDK if Bright punching Kai in that one early episode counts as a Bright Slap (not a literal slap and not toward the MC but it's still Bright hitting someone) but that seemed to work pretty well.
They wrote Kai as like extra obnoxious that entire episode and Bright finally punching him during the climax and telling him to shut the fuck up actually seemed to take him down a few notches for the rest of the series.

>>23903969 NTA but I think that's just because Kai is more of an abrasive asshole, you want to get him to shut his mouth the old fashioned way, not try and ease him out like a moody teen.

>>23893658(OP) They only became true newtypes after the slap. CTE supercharges that shit.
