This reminds me from my panel yesterday at @animelockdown.bsky.social when I showed that Ring ni Kakero's Jesus Christ (the WBA Bantamweight World Champion) was 100% just "a Char". And he debuted in the manga in 1981 right as the first Gundam movie was airing in theaters in Japan, too!

Slide showing WBA Bantamweight World Champion Jesus Christ from Ring ni Kakero, next to a shot of Char Aznable from Mobile Suit Gundam, showing that Masami Kurumada 100% based Christ's design off of Char.

Thanks to everyone who showed up to my Masami Kurumada panel for @animelockdown.bsky.social. Hope you all had a great time. I especially liked this bit where I got to point out that Vegeta was, essentially, a years-long goal of Akira Toriyama's to one day create "a really cool guy like Kenzaki".

Slide from the Masami Kurumada panel showing Jun Kenzaki from Ring ni Kakero & Vegeta from Dragon Ball, because the previous slide showed Akira Toriyama talking about how he couldn't create a character as cool as Kenzaki back in 1982, but eventually he managed to do so with Vegeta.

Watching the Uma Musume panel at @animelockdown.bsky.social right now, and all I can think of is wanting to see it crossover with G Gundam. Look, I just want to see an Uma version of Fuunsaki that wants to get into fist fights with the various Umas, instead of racing them.
