Ouch!   Ironically, I find her the best looking female of the cast that we've seen so far.   On a more serious note...   Different fansubs provide different dialogue.  I've no idea what the quality of any of the subs is, but the group Nyoro~n provides a different reason for the AEU getting in trouble over the failed demonstration of the new mobile suit.  According to their sub, despite the fact that the Union and HRA finished their space elevators ten years ago, the AEU still hasn't done so.  And the excuse that's been given to date was because the AEU was spending money on the military instead of the elevator.  And then Setsuna has to go and trash their brand new mobile suit without really trying...   Another interesting point, though I don't yet know if it's actually of value -   The terrorists were flying AEU mobile suits, and one of the HRA officers on the station made a comment that seemed to suggest that the AEU has fairly lax rules about who they sell their military equipment to. junior   ---------[ Received Mail Content ]---------- Subject : RE: *More Spoilers* Episodes 1 and 2 was Re: [gundam] *SPOILERS!!!* Basic info on Episode 1 Date : Mon, 15 Oct 2007 19:47:21 -0700 From : "-Z-" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To : <list@gundam.com> On Monday, October 15, 2007 15:17, Joseph Riggs wrote: > > 24 years old: qualifies more as an old hag than a girl. > > *sigh* Only in anime... > > /rolleyes Actually, it's quite a common attitude in Asia in general and Japan in particular. In Japan, there's even a slang _expression_ for still-unmarried women approaching the age of 25: "Christmas cake." Asked why a woman is like a Christmas cake, a Japanese man will smirk, "Nobody wants it after the 25th!"
