What is Tweaking?

^[1] Coordinator, Coordinator, translated in Taiwan and mainland China, and TVB in Hong Kong translated into a new human. It is a special race in the CE era of the fictional world in the Japanese television animation work Mobile Suit Gundam SEED series. ; Refers to a race that has superior abilities than ordinary people through innate genetic manipulation.

Adjuster

Literally means "human genes are artificially adjusted, improved and optimized humans". In the official settings and Astray series, Coordinator is explained as coordinating old humans (ie Natural, natural humans) and new humans (evolved to adapt The human race of the universe) . Compared with the ordinary natural person, the adjuster is better in the average performance of intelligence and physical fitness, learns quickly, has immunity to many diseases , and usually has better appearance and appearance.

Accepted due to illness or birth defect

16 years before CE, George Glenn was born as the first adjuster in the hands of a scientific research group. He was extremely outstanding as a child. He was nominated at the age of 20 and became a world superstar He is also a sportsman and excellent pilot, and works for the Federal Aviation and Space Agency of the Atlantic Federation. In CE15, George embarked on a seven-year voyage to Jupiter on an expedition ship, and disclosed his birth secrets and genetic manipulation technology on the Internet, which brought shock and controversy to the world. Subsequently, the operation technology was commercialized on the market. Adjuster infants increase rapidly. In CE53, George was assassinated and killed by a natural man juvenile who was lamented by his inability to act as an adjuster. The contradiction between the natural person and the adjuster officially surfaced. With the intensification of contradictions on the earth, the adjusters moved to colonial satellites, and PLANET is a political entity mainly composed of adjusters. Many natural person parents of the first-generation adjusters directly or indirectly participated in the construction and investment of PLANET. Therefore, PLANET still has a small number of natural persons who have entered the elderly living as nationals. In contrast, there are also a few adjustments that are unwilling to oppose natural persons. Move to neutral nations on earth. However, today's regulators are facing an extinction crisis. In order to ensure the quality of the genetics of the offspring of the regulators, PLANT implemented a marriage control mating policy, and appropriately distributed spouses based on the genes of both men and women, such as Aslan Sarah. That's the case with Lace Klein. However, as a result, infertility caused by the difficulty of implantation of fertilized eggs in the uterus occurred in a certain percentage of the regulators. The reasons are unknown and the fertility rate is extremely low. The third-generation regulators have fewer babies than the second-generation regulators. Negative growth is imminent. However, PLANET is eager to improve this situation, aiming at unmarried couples who may be found to be infertile through examination. Mandatory redistribution was implemented to break up many unmarried couples.

The ability of the adjuster is higher on average than the natural person.

Both intellectual and physical performance are better than natural people. Example: It is difficult for natural persons to use a simpler OS for flexible driving

Problems caused by genetic technology

Experiments must be conducted during the development of genetic technology, and failures can be created in the experiments and the process of disposing of them can be extremely inhumane. This is one of the reasons for the limited development of genetic technology in the real world. If a major adjustment is made, the probability of failure will also increase. During pregnancy, the fetus will inevitably be affected by the mother and various external factors. Only after the birth is found will the adjustment result deviate from expectations. Many adjusters have difficulty implanting fertilized eggs

As a result, the fertility rate of the adjusters is low, the population growth is stagnated or even reduced, and it is difficult for future generations to reproduce. PLANT is required to enforce a compulsory marriage.

If some of the adjusters and the natural person's offspring have no genetic adjustment, the offspring will have both the adjuster and the natural person's genes. In this case, on average, only about half of the general adjuster level will remain. Therefore, they generally suffer discrimination from both natural persons and adjusters. They are regarded by natural persons as adjusters, and the society of adjusters with the highest ability is regarded as two. Wait for citizens. So Patrick Sarah strongly opposes intermarriage with natural people and advocates that technology such as artificial uterus be used to solve this problem, but Siegel Klein regards it as a way out for regulators with extremely low fertility.

Although Hong Kong TVB translated Coordinator as a new human, in the original setting, this title actually refers to another new race that has not appeared in the play. Moreover, the "New Type" in the previous UC era has used this translation and is more literally closer to the original meaning, so the translation of TVB is misleading.
