   Ermm.... isn't it just, well, Gundam?

   I was sort of under the impression that there was a n/m sound in
Japanese without a paired consonant. It's one character that does both,
so why is there a MU on the end? Don't remember how it's said in the
series, don't speak Japanese, so if I'm wrong feel free to ignore me :-)

   Have fun,
Al
