CATDOLL: Japan's real Gundam sparks heated discussion among netizens: It's a waste of taxpayers' money

Japan once decided to produce a 1:1 moving Gundam within 5 years. While it was a pleasant surprise, it also caused dissatisfaction among netizens; many netizens opposed it and believed that it was a waste of taxpayers' money, and it would be better to make a real one. (The real one is more expensive!)

This plan was announced in 2014 on the 35th anniversary of the Gundam animation series. The full name of the project is "Gundam Global Challenge".

User comments:

"If we really have that much money, we might as well use it to train talents who can truly lead the future!" "Indeed, 80 billion yen can do a lot of things. It's really meaningless to just use it to make Gundam models walk." "If we distribute it to the people, we can get 800 yen per person!"

This matter was even commented on by an artist named Matsuko DELUXE during a TV show: "Let's not talk about whether the Abe administration is really considering this project. At least if it can be realized, then just letting the Gundam walk will not meet our needs." "With so much money, you can just build a real Gundam!"

I wonder what you think? I hope you will continue to pay attention to the follow-up animation of this Gundam.
