History of the HADES System [Gundam Missing Link] 

Welcome to the Gundam Universe, weaponizing gifted children since UC0079

"my friends getting killed by a loli, THE HELL IS THIS!?, she's not even legal!!"

"They even had a child." Kinda weird he had sex with someone who was mentally a child, but overall I think it's a happy end- "But it wouldn't last" GODDAMIT!

EXAM & HADES: We need OldTypes to start simulating NewTypes! NT-D: Imma stop you right there.

Imagine a ball with the EXAM and HADES System , it would no doubt destroy all of the OYW aces. #ballmasterrace

so that's your reason why PALE RIDER's ultimate in Gundam Evolution basically gives you your extra damage with the primary as well as increase speed and man that's got to be some interesting history as well

As soon as I saw a young girl involved with this, I knew her lifespan was gonna be shorter than normal.

LOL that sponsor message at the beginning hahaha

Fun fact: Vincent's voice actor would then voice McGillis in IBO.

I never heard about the Hades System before. Its so nice to know a bit more of the Gundam lore every day. Thanks, bud!

First rule of gundam never be a war orphan.

I wish more of these Gundam side stories would get animated, or at least have their manga/games be translated into English. These stories are more interesting then a majority of Gundam shows coming out today (not saying that those shows are bad).

And we're back to stay again. Happy (very belated) New Year! Now for some notes about the video: Cyber Newtypes in Japanese sources and media are usually referred to as 強化人間, which literally translated to “strengthened or enhanced human” and does not exclusively mean a human with newtype abilities. Halo’s Master Chief would also be a 強化人間. So while Chloe is enhanced, whether or not you want to call her a Cyber Newtype is debatable. There is one big problem with the Pale Rider’s story that makes it very hard to incorporate into the main canon, the fact that the unit first appears during the battle of Jaburo. At this time none of the units that the original Pale Rider was developed from were in development themselves. Even its appearance at Solomon is a stretch. Frankly, the only way to merge the complete Pale Rider and Hades is to reverse the development cycle and making the GM Sniper II based on the Pale Rider rather than the other way around.

I've always liked the Pale Rider due to it having influences from some of my favorite Mobile Suits like the GM Sniper II and the Blue Destiny. I never knew the full story of its HADES mode, so I'm glad you were able to fully explain it!

I like to think that the EXAM and HADES systems would eventually be refined into the NT-D system due to some similarities. There is no proof of course its just a thought.

The Pale Rider Units look SO AWESOME!!!

Can we get some coverage of The Return of Johnny Ridden? I read a good deal of it before scanlations ran out and I'd really like to know what happens.

I would like to see a manga about the love story between Vincent and Chloe, quite sad of the ending though, but it may very well be a good story.

There is another Pale Rider. It's in the manga Mobile Suit Gundam Aggressor. It's red, has reactive armor, and has only one beam saber.

I'm gonna be honest, I'm a sucker for gundams with red eyes and antenna instead of V fins

It's been a while

Honestly, I didn't know that there were that many versions of the Pale Rider. No wonder I get killed by it in Gundam Battle Operations 2! Lol! Amazing vid as always, Kakarot! Can't wait for another lore video!

If you don't kill it. Then love it - Vincent

Great content. Love that you these "deep cut" gundam topics!!

Do the A.L.I.C.E system next plzzz

I really feel bad for both EXAM and HADES system that becoming test subject. I respect both of them

Really love these lore videos, especially on stuff I have trouble finding myself

I absolutely love these Gundam lore videos! I just wish there were more of these than just gunpla alone.

Can you do a video on the A.l.i.c.e system used by the sentinel gundam it be awesome man

Chloe's life was sad. Even at the happiest moments, destiny just decides to be a fucking dick. Great job for making me like the Pale Riders more (especially Unit 02), and also choking me up with feels. Jesus.

If it's possible, I'd like to see a video on what are some of the good things (if any) that the Titans did. We all know of them as the villain, so I think it'll be cool to see if they did anything good during their time Amazing lore videos as usual, keep them coming

I heard of the exam system before you did that video. But I had no idea about this system. Glad to know about it now.

Why must perfect love, die so early, when it was birthed by a miracle, but from tragedy? That isn't fair and shouldn't be. It isn't how life works and i wont take that excuse. I will take however is my first gundam on the PS game Gundam Mobile Suits Operations 2, as The Pale Rider. Thank you for the content. Its put alot of drive into my heart, for a goal I've already had in mind. But now I have an ambition to follow.

Another great in-depth lesson!!! 👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏

you're like the gundam universe historian! I LOVE IT!

In my school vr game, Goalius has the HADES system, and the most memorable moment of it use is the death of battletrap, who was ripped in half by him, and it showed a nasty side effect of increasing the rage center of the brain making the pilot more aggressive

This was an interesting video. Keep up the good work.

love your videos and thank you

Love the Zeonic front music!

I like these stories a lot, I hope someday we get to see a series of it.

Liked N subscribed !!!! Thank for the good vid of the Hades Sys..!!!

With Gundam Battle Operations and Code Fairy we now have the pale rider, red rider, white rider, and black rider. The four horsemen of the apocalypse.

great video, do one where you cover every "special ultimate prototype" variant of the RX-78 during the OYW, because I've lost track

Yay more war crimes!

I love gundam lore. Thank you sir

Kakarot I'm on my Hazel Madness just snapped my Hazel 2 and used that extra shield booster for the Custom. Next Advanced, then Hrududu and Primrose, then ORX 5 and TR6 Hazel 2 and I will be getting somewhere!

Thanks so much for doing this video! The Pale Rider is my favorite MS in all of Gundam so it's great to hear its origins and what it became. I need to dig out my copy of Missing Link and play through it, despite the language barrier.

Darth Sidious: the power to cheat death has only been achieved by one. Here is Kakarot 197

Oh cool thanks you making a video this I was very interested in that system ever since I played SD Gundam G generation Genesis I was very curious in that system it looks very cool

Great video as always dude, How about a video on Gundam 0083, the dual plots going on with trying to stop zeon, the titans creation earth secretly meeting with them etc...

Looking at this video now and playing Gundam Battle Operation 2, we now know that there was a White Rider, Black Rider, and Red Rider with EXAM like systems named after other Greek gods.

This comment will be completely unrelated, but I love listening to these videos as I build gunpla.

Hey Kakarot I was thinking, maybe you could showcase some very obscure ms designs that most people arent aware of, there are a ton of them and I think It could be very interesting to learn their existence and have a piece of lore with it? (For example the macross looking gundam from 00 or some very unknown variants like the civilian astray custom)

I wonder if EXAM or HADES had any impact on the development of NTD we see in Unicorn?

@5:40 - yoooo, solid choice w/ GGXX ending song.

Say hi to the gundam evolution players!

The research definitely continued to this date. I don't know if you have read Fujioka's "Over the Mind." There is a clear connection between the story and what is depicted in NT (Narrative). And the technology eventually matured to the NTD in UC.

This is an Interesting vid because I never heard of the HADES System.

confidently. binged a bunch of @kakrot197 s video's, while building the HG Blue Destiny Unit 3. finishing it at this video. The Exam vid would have been more fitting, but just didn't work out that way.

I personally love the Pale Rider. Todesritter kit when?

Finally the mad lad is back

I would really love to see a video on the Alice system since I really don’t know anything about it or what it does

That Todesritter is gorgeous! I'd love a Gunpla of it!

I’m surprise there were any records of the EXAM to look over. Encounters in Space clearly stated that no records about the program would be made. Only those who were actually there know what happen. Let’s not forget about compartmentalization. Though it seems even with all that, notes where shared nonetheless. I have been confused by how to classify the Pale Rider. Is it a Gundam-type or not? This clarifies thats it’s the latter though more of a pseudo-Gundam with all those parts from the RX-78 line. Surprising they still had leftover parts though.

There are a few things quite consistent in Gundam series: 1. almost every series begins with "Grand Theft Gundam" 2. most love affairs don't have good ending, couples rarely live to ripe old age - actually to have kids is already an achievement.

That was awesome.

That Beam /Missile/ gatling gun combo weapon is good~

Honestly it's scary knowing the pilots in battle operation can pilot the pale rider and todesrittser without the side effects HADES causes, I know it isn't canon, but still

I almost feel like crying during the end.

Love the new arsenal base card of Chloe in casual clothes,*sniff* looks so peaceful,good to know that she had a happy ending👍

I think the PR Calvary and DII sorta used design aspects from the RX-81 G-Line's chest. And come to think of it, i remember seeing a Red PR (and it is at this point that i realise this episode is about the HADES system and not the Pale Riders XD)

Thanks for making it a deppressing morning

Glad to see you back. I just have a question do you own the hg woundwort if so will you review it?

i absolutely love the activation sound of this system basically screams you're dead

Given how the NT-D system operates, would it be too much of a stretch to say that it was based off of both the HADES and EXAM system? And of course, we would finally get as close to perfect of a Newtype simulation system with the n_i_t_r_o system. Although, I would say that it's less simulation and more of a temporary Cyber-Newtype conversion system.

Another schway mecha video much appreciated. Can you do one for the Zeon mobile suit Efreet. It is an awesome mecha with cool variants. Especially when equipped with the Exam system.

I love your job! Do have any thing about Zaku 3?

Thank you!!!!

The「GOUGI」system! The 「HADES GOUGI」 !

Just won a duel on battle operations using the calvery, gouf VD charged me while we were both low and I only had 17 seconds of hades left. I landed the counter to his melee attack and all I have to say is suck my hyper animosity detect estimate system. lol Super cool visual to see the gouf explode and this angry pale rider emerge from the smoke from its fresh kill.

to all those visiting this video in the modern day, 3 more Rider units have been created, each named after one of the other Riders of The Apocalypse and equipped with highly specialized tools and weapons (Don't ask me how all 3 highly experimental units were created before the end of the war when they only had like 2 weeks, the timeline doesn’t make sense). These units are the White Rider, Black Rider, and Red Rider

If you ever want to do part 3 the nitro System would be a good pick, it being related to the Hases system after all.

Yayyy my Mobilesuit :) finnaly noticed :3

I would love a RG model kit

pale rider is probably my 2nd fav unit just for the fact it uses a upgraded version of the GM sniper 2 which is my fav unit (none gundams i might add)

Are you going to make a video about the cyber newtype project?

Ha! This is a funny coincidence. Pale Rider just came out on Battle Operation 2.

Poor Girl :( . damn war is ugly. even in our real world.

Congratulations,Todesritter is finally become plastic model officially.

What took you so long ? you kept us waiting

Improvements on EXAM: Not a literal soul prison. New Drawbacks: memory loss and even less control/stability. Also a shortened life span.

*THE LORE!!!*

wonder if youll ever look over the “red rider” unit featured in a few games

Ahhh the Hades and Exam systems...the precursors to Gundam Wing's Zero and Epyon Systems. Unlike the Hades system, the Zero System didnt stress memory loss on the pilot nor did it leave the MS damaged. The Zero System was built by the 5 Gundam Engineers to create a system to achieve absolute victory no matter the cost. It only managed to drive the pilots insane due to overloading the pilot with more info than a person can handle. Only a few pilots could withstand the stress the Zero System. Those were Heero Huy, Zechs Marquis, and the late Trieze Khushrenda (RIP Trieze). And Heero was different about it and treated Zero like the suit was a sentient being and during Heero's fight with Zechs in the Final Battle, Heero often argued with Zechs on how correct Epyon truly was and "What Future did it lead him" and often referred to Zero's path as the correct one. Add-on: The reason why Wing Zero was locked away unfinished was due to how dangerous Wing Zero had become despite the 5 Engineers's plans for it. To create the ultimate Gundam to achieve absolute victory. The stress on the pilot's mind is why the Wing Zero was never completed. Fearing it to be more dangerous than all of OZ put together and putting their plans of destroying OZ in jeopardy.

Hello mr kakorot could you do the story of the Phenex and the banshee

Tfw you come to a lore video from a Gundam evolution Slander video

Man i oove her so much

Mista disapproves this mobile suit

Omg this is like the exact same as the fan story that i wrote to fill this gap in the story. Except i called the system Nexas. The med fed cyber newtype and the memory loss and everything. Except mine is set durring Zeta.

Mind doing the Alaya Vinjana system, I saw that barbatos' "unchained" mode (that's what I call it) and the EXAM/ HADES system are somewhat similar
