Rewatching Mai Otome after 20 years, did I just miss all these nods to Gundam the first time through or has Gundam rotted my brain to the point Char lives in my head rent free and I see Axis everywhere?
Also this woman getting the full Shinn Asuka in the final battle.

Mai-Hime/Otome shares too much DNA with Gundam, specifically the Cosmic Era.>writing by Hiroyuki Yoshino, one of SEED's main screenwriters who also did all of the CE's timeline background stuff>creature design by Junichi Akutsu, the Astray's designer>music by Yuki Kajiura, who did a bunch of the EDs and insert songs for SEED.>many VAs, including Akira Ishida, Naomi Shindo, Toshihiko Seki, Tomokazu Seki, Rie Tanaka, etc.>a large number of the same animators, storyboarders and producers worked on SEED, Destiny, Mai-Hime and Mai-Otome.
