[SHORTS] A Day in the Life of a Space Colony

Added 2024-08-03 20:11:39 +0000 UTC

As I wrap up another volume of Crossbone Ghost (later today, I hope!), another quick little dive into some of the quirkier Gundam lore that's out there, this time from Gundam's 20th Anniversary! Originally published in Volume.5 of G20's anniversary tribute magazine in June 1999, we get a look at a day in the life of a teenage boy on a colony. Lots of undertones in here (dare I saw Newtype hints?!). I tried presenting this from a teenager, but I think I may have overdone it a smidge. Nothing that takes away from the text, mind you. I guess if we had to peg a timeframe for this we're looking at somewhere around the 0100s (which is interesting how some of the tech mentioned in this does show up somewhat in Unicorn and Hathaway!).
