The sequel to MS IGLOO: The One Year War, MS IGLOO: Apocalypse 0079, continues the adventures of the 603rd Technical Division as the One Year War comes to a close. Was a toss up between giving this a 8 or 9 rating but overall the first ova was a lot better paced story wise. Very satisfying conclusion to the 1 year war from all standpoints. Except every time they play that sad violin music the viewer gets so well trained that they inevitably expect someone else to die.
Voice acting was good but music was so so. Sound was the weakest part of this anime. The animation is more of a personal preference as to whether you like the CGI or cell drawings.

Overall, this was well done compared to most of the older gundam series which has dated animation. Some details are unbelievable (can see individual eyelashes and strands of hair) while others look very obviously CGI'd (repetitive explosions) which seem chunky and blocky. Be aware that by this sequel series, you're already fully invested emotionally in the characters so if you're the emotional type (like me) keep the tissues close by.ĬGI type similar to Final Fantasy Spirits Within/Advent Children. If I had to rate the OVAs separately, I would have to say the first episode as a standalone would deserve a 10, with the other two being between 8 and 9. When he came racing to battle in his mobile armor. Finally there is the mobile armor who ends up being test piloted by Lieutenant Oliver May himself, yes, things are going THAT desperately in the war. Erwin is much more likeable than his sister, winning over basically. The second features small sub-mobile suit units and stars Erwin Cadillac, the unpopular Captain Cadillac's younger brother. He had the best backstory, which is amazingīecause like all real sea-men, he doesn't talk very much. The first is about a deep see diving mobile suit piloted by a seaman, who is lovingly and very realistically rendered. These 3 OVAs tell stories of another different weapons and their technical champions. A war effort that is not going to well for the Zeon. This awesome sequel to Mobile Suit Gundam MS IGLOO: The Hidden One Year War picks up where the prequel left off, with Lieutenant Oliver May and the 603 Technical Division Unit aboard the Jotunheim continuing testing and evaluating experimental weapons to aid the Zeon war effort against the Federation Forces.
