What does this have to do with gundams though?

Might be the only Japanese thing OP knows the name of.

I am assuming because a) Japanese, as the other person said and b) Gundam is where robots in the future fight bad guys, right? So the invasive chestnut species is the bad guy, therefore Gundam

Also maybe Gundam has time travel, idk. I haven't watched it so I'm pulling this from thin air. I just know Gundam has cool fighting robots

The chestnut was the vehicle that brought the fungus, kinda like a mobile suit.
