Don't complain about the subs, complain about the japanese dialogue. I swear, when people don't actually understand what words mean, they just assume the writing is perfect, and its the subs that are at fault. Anyway, question! Which Mobile Suit is superior? Wing Zero or the Double X Gundam? Wing Zero: ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/pTbZ8.jpg) http://www.mahq.net/mecha/gundam/w/xxxg-00w0.htm Wing Zero is known for 2 things. 1 is its Twin Buster Rifle, which has enormous firepower, and was shown to be capable of destroying a colony in one shot. The other is its Zero system, which is basically an advanced battle system that made people go craze. It also performed well in close combat as well, allowing Heero to defeat the close-combat oriented Epyon in a 1v1 duel. Aside from its Twin Buster Rifle, it only had IIRC 2 machine guns on its shoulder, and 2 beam sabers. Gundam Double X: ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/t837z.jpg) http://www.mahq.net/mecha/gundam/x/gx-9901-dx.htm Gundam X, its predecessor, was known for one thing. Its giant Satellite Cannon, which was shown capable of taking down space colonies (and is largely responsible for Gundam X's setting). The DX comes with not one, but TWO Satellite Cannons, and each one is upgraded. This basically made the DX a mobile Colony Laser. All that firepower has a catch, since it requires to receive a Microwave beam from the Moon in order to charge the cannons for a shot. The DX is heavy armored, 2 large Beam Sabers, and a rifle. MAHQ called it a "buster rifle", but the rifle it used was essentially a beam rifle standard on most Gundams. The DX did not have the Flash System that the GX had. It might be interesting to throw the GX itself in there too, if you include the G-bits, but that kinda isn't fair lol | ||

It's a verbal tic. the verbal tic in and of itself is a pun, but it is a verbal tic. If you've ever found yourself involved with a translation project, you'll find a lot of decisions like this on; Do you go for an equivalent feel for the original in english, or do you go for the more accurate translation? Both are acceptable, although I stand with a lot of other people on the idea that the accurate translation is less grating on the nerves than the one going for the feel of it.

It actually translates to "squid leg", both the mario enemy and Ikamusume are pulling from that pun. | ||

![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/fEJnl.jpg) I am fairly certain it's a poster for the upcoming Strike Witches movie, but I can't read Japanese, and I don't know how to type kanji for google translate, so you guys are my only real option. Also, sorry about the sizing, but I don't know how to upload it better. | ||

Simply because you dont need the firepower to destroy a entire colony, you just need the firepower to destroy gundam. Thus the Wing Zero is virtually superior and more versatile than the Double X in all aspects. Simply put, the double X is a glass cannon and would crumble under the Wing Zero might. EDIT: God that Beach Miku is so damn moe! :O Double EDIT due to Freezing mad updating lately: God I fucking love Chiffon Fairchild. | ||

Colonies aside say you had a fleet to handle wouldnt the Double X be better ? A gundam mounted with 2x death star cannons seems pretty useful. And if its heavily armoured Id hardly call it a glass cannon no ? Head to head it seems from the description that the Wing Zero has it. | ||

If it situational, than I would say Double X. Having a sole purpose is better than being well rounded if it aint a direct confrontation. | ||
