Badass Normal/Anime and Manga: Difference between revisions

Line 72:

*** In the second movie series, there's Ben Barberry, who has the highest MS kill count achieved ''on foot'', and Arleen Nazon, who's team was pretty much the only support Big Tray needed in their ground assault on the Dabudes in Operation Odessa.

** UC Aces have a number of well known badass normals aside from Jerid and Yazaan, Hughes to date is canonically the oldest Gundam pilot (32 years old!), the Twin Stars of Carnage are so badass that they punched out Amuro's G3 Gundam once.

*** Look further and you'll find [[Mobile Suit Gundam|Ramba Ral]] and his Earth-bound expy [[Mobile Suit Gundam The 08th MS Team|Norris Packard]], who will show the difference between a merely good pilot and an [[Ace Pilot]], and they won't be doing them in Zakus. Then there are Kou Uraki and Anavel Gato, from a [[Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory|Newtype-less show]], they show off the power of growth and [[Character Development]], and of nukes. The Universal Century is teeming with awesome normal guys, to the point where even the [[faceless]] [[Red Shirt|red shirts]] get a representative in ''[[Gundam Unicorn]]'', the Londo Bell veteran known only as [[Fan Nickname|Godspeed]].

** The ''00'' series features this a lot in many characters.

*** Graham Acre is the biggest of them, being the first character in the series to come close to taking down a Gundam in a straight fight. Had his fight with the Eins continued, he would have literally chopped it to pieces with the beam saber he jacked from the same unit.
