The Best Quotes from Mobile Fighter G Gundam

1. Why G Gundam is Different

Before G Gundam, the series was about realistic giant robots used in military conflicts. The dialogue was often serious and focused on war and politics. G Gundam changed everything.

It became a "Super Robot" show, more like a superhero cartoon. The robots were unique, and pilots would shout their attack names. Pilots controlled the Gundams by moving their own bodies inside the cockpit.

The dialogue was not about strategy. It was about characters yelling out their feelings on the battlefield. The show felt more like a martial arts movie than a war story.

This article looks at the most memorable quotes from the show. These lines drive the story forward. They show how the main character goes from wanting revenge to fighting for love.

1.1 Why They Yell Their Attack Names

In G Gundam, yelling an attack's name is how pilots power their moves. Their fighting spirit is the real energy source. So, shouting an attack turns their emotion into a real punch.

When Domon Kasshu gives his "Shining Finger" speech, he is not just trying to sound cool. He is performing a ritual to power up his attack. We will look at these lines in both the English and Japanese versions.

2. Domon Kasshu’s Best Lines

Domon Kasshu is the main character. His story is about going from an angry loner to a hero who understands love. His dialogue shows this change perfectly.

2.1 The "Shining Finger" Speech

The "Shining Finger" is his main move in the first half of the series. It is powered by his personal anger. The speech he gives to use it is one of the most famous in all of Gundam.

English Version

The English version is known for being very intense.

"This hand of mine glows with an awesome power! Its burning grip tells me to defeat you! TAKE THIS! My love, my anger, and all of my sorrow! SHINING FINGER!"

Japanese Version

The original Japanese version sounds almost like poetry from a play.

Romaji: Ore no kono te ga hikatte unaru! Omae o taose to kagayaki sakebu! Hissatsu! Shainingu Fingā!

Here is what that means:

• Ore no kono te ga hikatte unaru! means "This hand of mine shines and roars!"
• Omae o taose to kagayaki sakebu! means "It shines and screams for me to defeat you!"
• Hissatsu! means "Certain Kill!" or "Deadly Technique!"
• Shainingu Fingā! means "Shining Finger!"

What It Means

The "Shining Finger" speech tells us a lot about Domon.

1. The phrase "This hand of mine" shows the power comes from Domon himself. The Gundam is just armor. His body is the real weapon.
2. His hand is alive and tells him what to do. This suggests Domon is driven by a need for revenge that feels out of his control.
3. The line "My love, my anger, and all of my sorrow" is very important to his character.
   • Love: For his family and his friend Rain.
   • Anger: At his brother for his betrayal.
   • Sorrow: Over what happened to his parents.
   He channels all these messy feelings into his hand. The attack is a physical release of his pain.

2.2 The "Burning Finger" Speech

Later in the series, Domon gets an upgraded Gundam. He learns to fight with a calm heart instead of pure rage. His attack chant changes to show he has grown up.

English Version

"This hand of mine is burning red! Its loud roar tells me to grasp victory! Erupting... BURNING... FINGER!"

Japanese Version

Romaji: Ore no kono te ga makka ni moeru! Shōri o tsukame to todoroki sakebu! Bakunetsu! Goddo Fingā!

Here is what that means:

• Ore no kono te ga makka ni moeru! means "This hand of mine burns bright red!"
• Shōri o tsukame to todoroki sakebu! means "It roars and screams for me to grasp victory!"
• Bakunetsu! means "Exploding Heat!" or "Erupting!"
• Goddo Fingā! means "God Finger!"

What Changed

The change in words shows how Domon has grown as a person.

• The first speech is about the enemy: "tells me to defeat you!" The second speech is about his goal: "tells me to grasp victory!" He is now fighting for something instead of against someone.
• The words change from "glowing" to "burning red." This shows his power is more active and intense.
• In Japan, the new Gundam was called "God Gundam." For the English version, they changed it to "Burning Gundam," which fits the "Shining" and "Burning" theme.

2.3 The Final Attack: Sekiha Love-Love Tenkyoken

The final battle in G Gundam is won with a confession of love. The final attack proves that love is the strongest force in the universe. It is powerful enough to beat the evil Devil Gundam.

The Full Speech

At the end of the show, Domon and his partner Rain pilot the Gundam together. They perform this ultimate move.

Domon: "Rain, are you ready?"

Rain: "Yes!"

Both: "The School of the Undefeated of the East!"

Domon: "The winds of the King!"

Rain: "Zenshin!"

Domon: "Keiretsu!"

Both: "Tempa Kyouran!"

Both: "Look! The East is Burning Red!"

Both: "Sekiha... Love-Love... Tenkyoken!"

What it Means

• By saying their master's school name, they show they have learned his lessons but made them their own. Domon is no longer a lonely fighter. He shares his power with his partner.
• The English version kept some of the Japanese words like "Zenshin" and "Keiretsu." They work like magic spells that help power up the move.
• Adding "Love-Love" to the name of a finishing move is very silly and very sincere. It shows the characters no longer care about being cool. They are just being honest about their feelings.
• As they yell the final line, the energy blast looks like a giant heart. The show is literally saying that love can punch through hate.

3. Master Asia's Best Lines

Master Asia is both the main villain and Domon's teacher. He is a tragic character who thinks humanity is a disease destroying the Earth. His lines are often poetic and about nature.

3.1 "The East is Burning Red" Chant

This chant is a special greeting between Master Asia and Domon. It shows their bond as master and student.

Master Asia: "The School of the Undefeated of the East!"

Domon: "The Winds of the King!"

Master Asia: "Zenshin!"

Domon: "Keiretsu!"

Both: "Tempa Kyouran!"

Both: "Look! The East is Burning Red!"

• Analysis: The line "The East is Burning Red" brings up the image of a sunrise, a symbol of a new beginning. For Master Asia, it means burning the world clean. For Domon, it comes to mean hope for the future.

3.2 His Views on Nature

Master Asia's reason for being a villain comes from his love for the planet. He wants to restore nature, not rule the world.

• "Look at this! The Earth is crying out in pain!"
  Master Asia often talks about the Earth as if it were a person. He sees the Gundam Fight, which uses Earth as its ring, as deeply disrespectful.
• "Become one with the Dark Gundam... and the Earth will be saved."
  He sees the evil Devil Gundam as a tool to save nature. His mistake was believing that humans are not a part of nature.

3.3 His Last Words

Master Asia's death is one of the most emotional scenes in Gundam history. After Domon defeats him, he dies in his student's arms while watching one last sunrise.

Master Asia: "Despite all the terrible things I have done, there has never been one Dark Gundam cell in my entire body."

Domon: "I just knew it! I knew it all along, because..."

Both: "The School of the Undefeated of the East! The winds of the King! Zenshin! Keiretsu! Tempa Kyouran!"

Both: "LOOK! THE EAST IS BURNING RED!"

Master Asia: "The East... is burning... red..." (Dies)

The fact that Master Asia was never corrupted by the Devil Gundam is a huge reveal. It proves his strength was all his own. It showed he truly was a master.

His final words bring him peace. By saying the chant with Domon, he accepts him as his true student. "The East is burning red" changes from a battle cry into a peaceful description of the sunrise he is watching.

5. The Funny and Over-the-Top Lines

G Gundam is so serious that it often becomes funny. The show is full of national stereotypes and loud melodrama. This creates some "so bad they're good" moments.

5.1 "WITH THE HELP OF KYOJI!"

This line is probably the most famous meme from the English version of the show.

Domon: "WITH THE HELP OF KYOJI!"

In the English dub, the voice actor delivers this line with shocking amounts of rage. But he is often just answering a simple question. It's funny because his anger is so out of place.

The line has become a joke in the Gundam community. It represents solving problems by yelling about family members.

5.2 Chancellor Wong's "Ready... GO!"

Wong Yunfat is a politician who acts as the announcer for the Gundam Fights.

"Gundam Fight! Ready... GOOOOO!!"

His delivery of this line is legendary. It sounds just like an announcer from a fighting game like Street Fighter II. It signals that it's time for the show to begin.

5.3 The Silly National Gundams

The show's Gundams from other countries are based on broad stereotypes. The designs are so ridiculous they become hilarious.

• Tequila Gundam (Neo Mexico): This Gundam wears a giant sombrero and has cactus armor. Its existence is a source of endless jokes for fans.
• Nether Gundam (Neo Holland): This is a Gundam that can transform into a windmill. It's a perfect example of a design that's more funny than functional.
• Allenby Beardsley (Neo Sweden): Allenby's Nobel Gundam looks a lot like Sailor Moon. But her quote, "I'm gonna beat you to a pulp!," is the opposite of a typical magical girl.
