Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team - A Battle with the Third Dimension · review
(LAZAROTH REVIEW - NO SPOILERS - RAPID REVIEW) This OVA special is an supplemental piece to the "Mobile Suit Gundam: The 8th MS team" OVA anime, and features a single battle that takes place on a bridge as the team is ambushed from all directions. It's only around 7 minutes long, however it features modern animation in widescreen, as opposed to the 90's 4:3 aspect ratio, and it was quite something to see the characters in the modern style, even if I preferred the older look. I'm astounded to see that there is no CGI used in this short, considering that most mecha anime from the2010's had CGI.
The battle is really good and feels like a snippet cut from the original anime, it's quite novel seeing the team battle both a Sniper and an flying mobile suit at the same time during an ambush. The setting is quite good, and I liked the ending too.
Overall, it's perfect for an bonus feature if you liked the original anime!
7.8/10
