Canon: Gundam 00 is that one series with big, giant robots and psychologically disturbed yet rather pretty pilots, fancily named "Gundam Meisters". And, as in many Gundam series, we have an obligatory princess of peace. In this case, we have the most impoverished princess that ever existed: First Princess Marina Ismail of the fragile and struggling Azadistan Monarchy.
Marina is quite the reflection of her country: She's sensitive and cries easily, and she's constantly struggling (and failing) to understand politics. Still, even if she admits that she is pretty much a fail princess, she's determined to do good for Azadistan! Except that Azadistan burns down in an attack as part of the Middle East reformation plan. Despite her homeland burning down, Marina refuses to fight, or even hold a gun, firmly believing that war can only bring pain and sadness. So instead of fighting, Marina shoulders the burden of caring for orphans hurt by the continued conflicts in the world. This peaceful approach is understandable given that she's truly only ever wanted to be a musician. She's the type who believes that people would get along if only they took time to understand each other. Also, if you are incapable of crying? She will shoulder your burden and cry for you. Or sing a song dedicated to you even if you're nowhere around to hear it.
This song is also famous for once stopping someone from killing their sworn enemy. It's that inspiring.
Sample Post:
Oh, hello, young one. Where is your family? Are you possibly lost? Don't be afraid, for I do not desire to cause any harm upon you. I fear that I am uncertain of what I can do, but perhaps, if we both tried our hardest, we may be able to find them. Or ... are you an orphan? I apologize; it was not my intention to upset you. In truth, I have seen many orphans, children losing friends and families because of the harsh cruelties of war. It is a terrible thing. People are always sad, constantly hurting. I ... I ...
Oh! I am sorry, it is simply that I cry, because you can't. So do not mind me, little one! I will be fine as long as I am able to sing with you children, for music is something that has always been close to my heart. You see, dear one, there are many troubled souls in such a conflicted world, and many of their hardships cannot be eased so readily. However, I have found that in music, I am able to touch peoples' hearts, so instead of resorting to violence, to battles that only bring agony, I want everyone to understand each other through the power of song. So you see, dear one, this is why we should not attempt to eat a person's flesh through violence, and instead combine our voices into a singular, heartfelt song. I am sure that if we do this, there will be more music to create, music that will make everyone understand our feelings and unite our hearts as one. That is why I chose to become a Music Instructor, after all: To spread this message of unity to anyone who wishes to listen. So, would you like to help compose a song, little one? Are there any words you have in mind that we can include in its lyrics?
"Brains"? That is a good word. Now, if we can use it in a sentence... If brains are for our deepest thoughts ... Then a heart is for ... understanding. Do you like those lyrics, young one? I do, as well. Now, let us write the remaining lines and then incorporate a melody into it:
If brains are for our deepest thoughts,
Then a heart is for understanding.
After 'I want brains', certainly,
Through sharing, we can eat it.
If many good flesh appeared today,
Then I wish that many delicious flesh appear tomorrow, too,
How are you?
I am full.
How are you?
I am full.
That's good! Now, don't be discouraged if you don't hit the right notes on the first try. You did very well for someone with no ears. Now, do you think we should sing our song to the tentacle creature in the distance? It seems like it wants to understand us, too.
