Essentially, yes. Guld first grabs Isamu by his shirt before laying him out flat, and he grabs Myung's shirt as well, but instead of punching her, he goes into a deeper rage just before he see's himself & blacks out. It's an animal reaction to rip apart something/someone you're attacking. Hell, take a look at the battle scenes in Evangelion. Isamu wouldn't have "given up" Myung had Guld raped her, he would have killed him, that's the alternate scenario, don't mix the two up. The reason he broke up with Myung & felt sorry for Guld was because Guld went into a jealous attack rage. So yes, I can state it as 100% correct, as that's exactly the scenario that occurred. While on the flipside you have Guld, who did mesh his memory into Isamu having sexually assaulted Myung, and he in turn had a desire to kill him.

$400? Bah, wait a month or two, and the HK bootleg will be out. Only question being will it be encoded well enough to appreciate the remaster.

Start with DYRL, then ease into the first episode of 7.

Watch it BOMBA!

You guys are not going on for 6 pages over this are you? The simple answer is "no," Guld did not rape Myung. He went into a violent rage, knocked Isamu out cold, and then tore Myungs shirt. At this point he see's himself in the mirror, and most likely blacks out, blocking the true memory of those events out for 7 years. There was no intent to sexually assault, and if anything, gone fully unchecked, he would have strangled her to death, not raped her. Myung would not have been even remotely open with him, let alone slept with him, had he raped her. Isamu in turn wouldn't have simply bantered with him in their dogfights (as Isamu clearly had the skill advantage in a direct fight), and would have killed Guld before leaving Eden to join the U.N. Spacy. Both Myung & Isamu felt guilty for not recognizing Gulds feelings while persuing their relationship, which is why they broke up & parted ways in the first place.

I absolutely loved 7 from the very first episode, everything about it entirely blew me away. I watched half the series in 2 days....then had to wait 2 weeks for the rest of the fansub tapes to come!

My vote was "Other." Specifically, it goes to all the HK bootleggers out there! All 3 Yamato series, Galaxy express 999 up through episode 36 (I NEED THE OTHER 90+ NOW!!!!!!!), Robot Carnival, Please Save My Earth (haven't picked it up yet), , and great stuff from last year such as Orguss, Double Zeta, Victory, Macross 7, etc. They've been delivering more great nitche titles, with ever improving subtitle translations, and fewer watermark logo's. Definately the most improved this year! AnimEigo has yet to release Arcadia, which hurt their vote, Bandai pushed back Zeta to next year, which hurt their vote, ADV did decently with things like Mospeada & Mazinkaiser, CPM is pissing me off with the re-release of Dominion Tank Police with the worst subtitle font ever, and Manga has entirely dropped off the map (though thankfully Korea picked up the ball by releasing a great Giant Robo set, now if only they'd do Gunbuster too!).

Macross 7 will rock your world, buy it now!

Another vote for having a dedicated Gundam forum, how about it shawn?

Slash from Chrono Trigger???

Ah, but the white mustache of the Turn-A is suspiciously similar to that of one of the G-W scientists. Coincidence???

That's ok, I liked Wing too (actually finally just picked it up), enjoyed it much better this time after having seen Zeta first. G Gundam isn't by any means bad, it's just..different.

Recent??? Are you sure it's not Lala from MSG?

There was absolutely nothing wrong with the mecha or ship designs in 7, most definately nothing that CG would be needed for (though there already was a CG VF-19 in both the TV series intro & Dynamite intro).

How long until we can put our member titles back????

Psst, why pick it up & sell it? Just rent it, much cheaper! I'm waiting for the extended edition, it's only 2-3 months until it's out, and the video quality is so much better.

Sad thing is, we won't see the end of Zero until a year from now....bah!!!

I say go for Victory Gundam, a very misleading beginning which turns into an excellent show.
