| Customer Reviews: Hail Zeon! July 18, 2010 Amnuth Rukal (Negative feedback: The black wire is a bit too short for my fat neck, so I wound up using a dogtag chain in its place. Other than that and the price I paid for it, it's a beautiful addition to my collection of Gundam memorabilia.)
I'm a Gundam fanatic who picked up the addiction during the late 1990s while watching Gundam Wing on Toonami. I didn't see the original Mobile Suit Gundam until the new millennium came around. Although the animation wasn't that great (but that's to be expected of a 31 y/o animated TV show), my addiction grew stronger. Now I'm 20 years old and I still love the series, especially the new stuff like Gundam 00 and Gundam Unicorn. But the greatest philosophy of the entire Universal Century series (Mobile Suit Gundam, Zeta Gundam, Double Zeta Gundam, Victory Gundam, Gundam F91, Char's Counterattack, Gundam Unicorn) has been that developed by the fictional character Zeon Deikun. This philosophy bordered along the idea that humankind was meant to depart Earth and make its way through space while developing new abilities and greater insight along the journey outward. In some ways, this can be a literal religious symbol: rising to the heavens, departing the earth. For me, personally, it not just a gorgeous piece of cosplay jewelry, it's also a symbol of an idea that began as far back as the 1960s. Man was meant to go to space, to explore the wonders made, not just in our own world, but in other worlds. In my opinion, anyone who would deny this quest for knowledge and fulfillment is amongst those "whose souls are weighed down by gravity."
