Lol I get what your saying but let's not hold Gundam to real life pilot standards and haircuts. If you've even seen ZZ Gundam, it's like half the female characters belonged to a 1980s hair metal band.
I find it amusing that if they want to make this diverse band of pilots be sympathetic, but there is one amusing underlying tone. They're the bad guys and the end of this conflict they're going to most likely be in body bags if they're not vaporized from a beam rifle shot. So if the wokies want to make their OC characters look cool, fine, they're red paste regardless.
Actually now that I think about it, a lot of characters in good ole ZZ Gundam were super diverse too, and also super dead.
Even if our OC band of plucky Zaku pilots all end up dead, I think that there is still the possibility of a really good story there, similar to a survival horror movie, with the Gundam as the slasher that the audience knows cannot or will not die, but we root for the characters anyway.
Unlikely that we would get it, but there is a possibility.
And yes, big anime hair is appropriate to an anime, but less so to a more "realistic" CG show. Look at me, hoping against hope that the obvious aposematism haircut is justified.
