Allez cuisine! The long-awaited Gundam food episode has arrived in the form of Iron Chef x Gundam! We each send a crack team of six Gundam chefs into Kitchen Stadium to see whose mobile suit themed cuisine reigns supreme! Our chefs bring the heat with appetizers like dumpling soup and onigiri, entrees with fugu and frilly toothpicks, and with desserts featuring truffles and cannoli. Who wins? It's up to you, the listeners! Plus, Isaac goes tit for tit, we take a popsicle tangent, and discuss society reaching peak matcha.

We run down the myriad of announcements made at Gundam Conference 2026 SPRING in advance of Mobile Suit Gundam's 50th Anniversary in 2029! For starters, the short film, A boy with Gundam, touches our hearts but leaves Isaac wondering where the monoeyes have gone? Plus, we ponder whether SEED Freedom needs a sequel; should the MSG remaster really be a remake; what exactly does new "footage" mean for the Wing fans; and should we make a pilgrimage to Japan for Gundam Con 2027, the Tomino exhibit, the landmark, and the various festivals... on Gundam Day? There's also hololive x MSG... whatever hololive is? Tomino save us!

50th Anniversary news @ Gundam.info

The second film in the Hathaway’s Flash movie trilogy, MSG: Hathaway: The Sorcery of Nymph Circe, hit US theaters on May 14, 2026, and we were there to bask in all its silver screen glory. We discuss the film at length, including Hathaway's dismantling of Lane (again); Alyzeus as Bandai's War Machine; whether Lane is a cyber newtype or just a drunk E.T.; Anaheim's implied policy on beam saber colors; weighing the evidence if Brinks' cat is a newtype; and predict whether Bandai / Sunrise will pull the ultimate punch, among others. Plus, Isaac dons his Bask goggles to justify Kimberley's squishing incident and discovers that he is somewhere between Degwin and Bask. Double plus, the Colony Drop crew enjoys a post-film dinner at the most thematically appropriate place: Outback Steakhouse!

Let's go for part three, Bandai!
