"Heh... actually I'm a liar."
Okay this is gonna have a BUNCH of pics under the cut cuz we're gonna cover all three of the X Gundams from... Gundam X, the base X, the X Divider, and the Double X. But I hafta lead this post by saying that Gundam X, the show, is criminally overlooked, it is SO GOOD.
The characters are well written, unique, and engaging, the world is one of the more unique settings Gundam has ever tackled; post apocalyptic, and its commentary, on war, on humanity, and on the Gundam franchise itself, is well handled, meaningful, and hopeful.
Also its the anime the "I'm a healer but..." meme image originates from. Yes really.
The HG kits are perfectly serviceable, if a bit standard. The highly reflective rainbow sparkly stickers for the base X Gundam look great if you hit them with light right, and the gold ones, while not as sparkly, light up equally well on the DX. I loooooove the X Divider's whacky shield, which is also a harmonica cannon, and two arrangements of extra thrusters.
There is an interesting aspect of gunpla progression represented here with these kits. The X and Divider have the exact same bodies, which makes sense as they have the same body in the show, but when you move up to the DX, its not just a mild cosmetic change to the armor. The DX is essentially a generation newer in terms of engineering, most noticeable in the hip joints which are no longer ball joints, which makes the kit itself feel as further advanced of the other two kits as the machine itself was advanced of the same machines in the show. I doubt that was on purpose, but it is kinda funny.
Anyway go watch Gundam X, and more pics (in order of base, divider, then double) under the cut!

{Candy Heart Prompts: OFFICIALLY CLOSED!}
Heyo! So long story short- I accidentally deleted the candy heart prompt ask for this one- my apologies anon! I hope you like it all the same!
Nagito x Reader:
Bestie: "Hold still! You're so squirmy!"
“AH!” Nagito yelped, arching some and reaching for his back. “Something’s in my shirt!”
“Huh?” You blinked, watching him frantically try and catch whatever was running along his back. “Calm down, it’s probably a bug.”
“It’s too big to be a buuhuhg! Ehehehe, it tihihiihckles!” Nagito cried, starting to giggle. “Hehehlp me!”
“I’m here.” You tsked, trying not to laugh at his reaction. Coming to his aid, you felt along his back, trying to find said culprit. “Hold still- you’re so squirmy!”
“I chahahan’t! It tiiihihihckles! Ehehheheh, whahahtch your hahahahnds!” Your boyfriend twitched and danced as you and whatever was lose in his shirt tickled him endlessly, cheeks flushing a bright pink as he pressed his arms against his sides. “Chahahahtch ihiihihit!”
“I’m working on it!” Feeling around wasn’t working- time for the big guns. You stuck your hands up his shirt and jacket, making him squeak. “Sorry- cold hands.”
“Lihiiihhittle lahahahte with the whahahrning- ehehehehehe!” This time you intentionally tickled him, pinching his sides. “Iihihih’m shahahry, stahahahp!”
“You better be- oh?” When you went to search more, you felt something soft brush your hand. Gathering it up, you pulled your arms out to reveal..
“Cham-P!” You smiled down at the chubby ham-deva, petting its fur with your finger as Nagito doubled over before you, gasping for air. “There you are- did you get lost from Gundham? Oh, I bet he’s worried about you, little guy!”
“Hhoohohw..hohohoow’d he gehehet in my shihihirt?” Nagito wheezed through tired giggles, watching you coo at the small creature.
“Probably from your hoodie. You know how these little guys are.” Putting Cham-P on your shoulder, you took your boyfriend’s hand, pulling him along. “Let’s go bring him home. Maybe Gundam will put a protective spell on us as a reward.”
“A protective spell, huh?” Nagito mused, leaning closer to you as he wrapped his arm around your waist. “Think it’ll protect me from future tickle attacks?”
“You wish.” You poked his side, making him jump and giggle.

There are still a couple more shows on my PTW list for this season that haven’t aired yet.
Why the fuck do I do this to myself.
Akiba Maid War: Watch this show I am begging you on my knees
Bibliophile Princess: The cinematic equivalent of crusty molasses. Dropped.
Blue Lock: Whoever came up with “Edgy death game but it’s actually a shonen sports anime“ is a goddamn genius.
Bocchi the Rock: Has the potential to be the best cute girls band show since K-On.
Chainsaw Man: I’m officially aboard this hype train let’s GOOOOOOOOOOO
Do It Yourself: It’s a damn good season for cute girls, what can I say?
I’m the Villainness, So I’m Taming the Final Boss: I feel like otome isekai genre is rapidly growing just as stale as its male counterpart, but this one might have some life to it.
Mob Psycho 100 Season 3: ONE AND ONLY OOOOOOONE
Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch From Mercury: GUNDAM UTENA GUNDAM UTENA GUNDAM UTENA GUNDAM UTENA GUNDAM UTENA
My Hero Academia Season 6: The fact there’s no movie announced this time gives me hope this season will rise to the top again. Fingers crossed!
My Master Has No Tail: Feels like the weakest parts of Eccentric Family and Rakugo Shinju combined. This one is next on the chopping block if it doesn’t pick up soon.
Pop Team Epic Season 2: I still don’t get the double voice actor gimmick tbh
Raven of the Inner Palace: Historical fantasy josei with courtroom politics and social commentary? You better believe I’m here for that.
Reincarnated as a Sword: Yeah, it’s the obligatory isekai, what do you want from me?
Spy x Family: Are you ready for more Anya faces? Because I sure am!
Urusei Yatsura: Just Lum Just Lum Just Lum Just Lum Just Lum Just Lum Just Lum Just Lum Just Lum Just Lum
Yama no Susume Season 4: Okay, but... this season isn’t gonna be all recap, right?
