US Military Publishes Moe Manga

God Gundam was a testament of Japan's sheer awesomeness.

*And the 1/1 Gundam's eyes glow...*

Ore wa Gundamu da!!!!!

I remember from the movie transformers when the kid saw a mecha for the first time... "Must be from Japan" Truthful premonition is truthful

and china will soon making it a mass product

Japan will make Gundam and China will soon after do Mecha... Don't mistake the China Quality with the Moe... hum... Japan Quality !

There are so many logical and military fallacies in making gundams, that it would be their downfall if Japan made them. Seriously, don't even get me started.

China will make Nerf mechas.

Then the China will pirate and mass produce it XD

It'll actually be USA people who make it, though likely gadgeteers versus Military tech.

Takes too long for any URL to show up here, prob a mod wait, but look up "Burning Man Hand of Man"

Yeah..
Pretty sure japan or USA will make one.
Then they'll mass produce it in china.. as always. lol!

The US Military has no intention of making mecha due to the fact that they consider them too darn impractical. Japan will probably go for it, those loveable screwballs.

Japan and America would probably both get into building mecha.
You'll find the american ones are powered by fuel and a battery (most likely nuclear), somewhat easy to use with a bit of training, and will carry machineguns, missile launchers and large-scale grenades. They will be mass-produced in china using lead, iron, and some amalgamation of cheap metals. Three to five will be stationned at each ground base.

Japan, however, will build two giant robots for their tiny country. They'll be in bright colors, will have an action figure line to keep funds coming in, and they'll be powered by sheer manliness, thus only a certain few will be able to pilot it.

Whether or not we keep bases in Japan, they should have their own army.

Come to think of it, Japan really needs to go to war with someone. When soldiers return home, birthrates tend to go up.

Fun thing I learned about today.
Gorilla glass are glass that won't break even dropped from 2 meters onto concrete and it was invented in 1960s. It had little use then but now if used on iphones it won't kill the phone if dropped and it conducts heat better than plastic for those touch screens.

Mechs may be impractical now but so was the arqubuss then.

can anyone scanlate this? and shut your trap, 2ch. This is AMERICAN produced manga!

so you think the jap 1's will be like gurran lagon?

Actually, the US military is easily the most advanced in the world. Japan's 'technology' is all geared towards entertainment purposes, while the US puts ridiculous amounts of money into developing military technologies.

they developed that funny star too?? nah

Oh yeah. It's against Japan's constitution to invade any country whatsoever. They don't even have any purely offensive weapons. (Tomahawks, ICBMs, strategic bombers)

So sadly, your dream of any mecha will have to be left to the U.S. military. (i hear they have success in all terrain robots and unmanned bombers.)

Usa-kun will then proceed to rape meganeko.

Not one person is going to advocate for the creation of super robot girls?

C'mon!! We need some KOS-MOS over here!! And also a Chiset-ype robot for loli lovers!!

Anon 02:16 >> If there's any raping to be done, it'll be done by MARI-TAN!

She'll rape Usa-kun, PT him all night, make him kill women and children, rape him again, and then put him on toilet cleaning duty just to rub it all in.

Usa-kun is a shota o_0 ......

As much as I really enjoy DFC/lolis, I like where this manga's idea is going..... <_<

who the hell called buzz killington over here?

eeeeh?
the gundams got sheilds and super speedy movements too, even realistically sized weapons!
if it can kill tanks with a smg it's way better than a tank! besides... why couldn't it just run away from the bombs? if it's like 10 meters tall, I can just suspect it would be fast.

Wow! Literal much?

An Arm Slave like the M9 is applicable in warfare.

However, you forgot one thing my dear Anon, Gundams are made from Gundiniam (or however its spelled) therefore, they are immune to most attacks. This means that Gundams are 100% worthwile, as they can stop on entire nations armies so long as they do not have nukes, and won't have a radioactive backdrop!

LET THE BUZZ CONTINUE!!!

At least the ones from Wing are.

Sadly, I agree with the buzz kill. Gundams are impractical in warfare. Now a Variable Fighter, that would be worth while. Smaller and sleeker than a Gundam, they can be mass produced. Plus, they double as air superiority fighters.

An exercise for the imagination: a man gets shot in the leg.
He falls over, using his other extremities to manage his leg enough to get back up again. His defense against further bullets is limited.

Now, a bear gets shot in the leg.
It shifts it's weight, and maintains 80% of it's charging speed. Then it comes over and mauls whoever shot it.

The above example is why gundams don't work, and why military designs will continue to be designed by quadropedophiles.
Oh yeah, I went there.

Maybe the worst weakness of a soldier is the fact of he having a human form.

Maybe should transform the soldiers in to a
30-cm-tall-little-tank-cyborgs.

wait.. 80%? that means the bear was using 5 limbs.. I didn't know bears can run using their d*cks!!

Momentum, chief.

If you don't fall down, you can keep moving, and if you're already moving fast you'll keep much of it.

Butt on the subject of bear dicks:

True, but on the other hand ITS AN AWESOME GIANT GODDAMN ROBOT

Probably because most people don't believe it could actually exists in RL.

I love everything about G Gundam, except his final ougi (love love tenkyouken)

Nobody believes anything could exist until someone makes it exist.

Case in point: lightbulbs, cars, airplanes, computers, the internet, ona-holes (I still have issues believing that this last one came into being naturally).

It's not a matter of doubting they can exist, but where the practicality in them lie. The justification for mobile suits in U.C. was due to conventional long range warfare rendered ineffective due to minovsky particle interference. Close range combat became necessary.

Ideally something like a Valkyrie Fighter would be best, but just think of the costs.

One day a nuclear jammer will exist.

@vocaloidfan
I agree. They should've stopped when Allenby was at the hospital..but nooooooooo~ they just HAD to take the battle to outer space. D: Other than that, G Gundam was epic ^^b

We already have the technology, the problem is a power source that doesn't require a 3" diameter power cable to run the thing.

Honestly, there are a lot of technologies that are hindered by our lack of a viable portable power source.

The troops that flooded most of Europe at the start of WWII were called the Wehrmacht (Defence Force) and currently Germany has the Bundeswehr. And most of the ministries in Europe governing the various armies are called Ministry of Defence. So if you want to know what something is, knowing the name doesn't suffice.
Back on topic, Japan really needs the US troops to maintain the regional power balance, at least until they can kiss and make up with a reunited Korea, if that ever happens.
If the US were to pull out of Japan, either China would try to annex Korea and Japan, or more likely use the implicit threat to blackmail the two countries into effectively becoming dependency states dancing to China's tune. Which would be bad for us as well.
Because of this, I find it incomprehensible that we don't do more to prevent the horribly things our marines are marines are doing in Japan, to bring them to justice, and that we don't abolish the special jurisdiction.

Okay, now the words are wrapped differently I see how weird that sentence is... I meant to type: ‘that we don't do more to prevent the horrible things our marines are doing in Japan,’
I hope the point still came through. We need Japan just as much as they need us, and we need to do whatever we can to make things work out.

It did came through. I have family and friends in Okinawa, and the anti US Military feeling gets ugly, especially after a rape incident, a cousin who lives there tells me.

Well, Japan may have a limited force projection, but the US has done a lot to quietly improve their defense profile.

One of the things that's no longer an official secret is the presence of English-speaking Japanese as auxiliaries in Vietnam. Probably no more than 150 guys, but they took that experience and founded the JSDF's combat schools, and farmed them for it's first special forces.

The important thing to see is how early the US understood the need to modify the 'self-defense' template.

I just want to share this, I'm from the Philippines and there has been a time where 3 American soldiers raped and killed a young Filipino woman. The US government bullied the authorities into moving the soldiers into the US embassy. From there, they were transported back to the US. They got off without any punishment. There was a large amount of people praying and asking for justice, camping outside the embassy for weeks. Justice was never granted.

any effect this manga might want to create is totally spoiled by the image of homer simpson yelling "USA! USA! USA!" while beeping his car.
