damn, you just now doing this joint?

Anyway, this is my favorite Gundam anime (didn't like the ending though)
Realistic (Didn't show the gundam pilots as gods)
Great Story-Telling
Like watching a Vietnam War film except anime based
Top 5 Mecha series
I’ve done the orginal gundam, Gundam wing, blooded orphans, Mobile suit Gundam and now this.

The only one remaining is
MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM 00


Unless I’m missing one that was demanded.

It is the most realistic of the series which is why it is the most "meh" to me.

+ Story's concept was solid
+ It was cool to see MS in ground combat
- "Realism" makes the action sequences the most boring of the series
- Characters I could all care less about
- Twelve episodes is not a lot of time for character or story development
- Ending was absolute :trash:


Definitely my least favorite Gundam series of all time (yes that includes G Gundam which was at least fun to watch :comeon:).

Gundam is at it's best when it is just crude mech on mech warfare.


when its just ace pilot vs ace pilot


the newer shows OD on Newtype Space Magic etc...nikkas melting inside Psycho Frames and shyt


8th MS Team is elite but Thunderbolt has it beat imo:

UC timeline is trash atm.

Thunderbolt is keeping it relevant :wow:

We'll see how Hathaway's Flash does.

Need to remake Gundam 0079 already.

facts...Narrative was some bullshyt...
nikkas really just remixed the last 3-4 episodes of Unicorn and painted all the mobile suits gray


all NT really did was confirm Amuro really dissolved in the Nu-Gundam after CCA
mans deserved a better fate than that...Char too.


but yeah Thunderbolt is keepin nikkas in the race, they need to finish it.
Darryl was looking like a God in the Psycho Zaku
they put bro in a regular Geloog in A Bao Qu and he couldn't do shyt...crazy hubris


Hathaway Flash would have to incorporate some of this new Unicorn shyt they added.
they prob. saving the 0079 remake for the 50th anniversary.

Summarized NT in a sentence :russ:


Got all hyped just to see his whole team put work in and Darryl is over there surfing under water dodging missiles.

The mobile suit makes the man :wow:

I didn't like Unicorn all that much but Banagher did grow on me a little bit.

They add just him to Hathaway and its all good.

50 years though :wow:

Still beats out Star Wars so :yeshrug:

The GOAT Gundam Series ever. The fight between the EZ8 gundam and that Gouf was stellar. Didn’t deal with the quasi- you need to have telepathic powers to pilot and gundam nonsense and actually showed the ground war and the grunts and the day to day of the war. Ok it still had telepathic powered mobile suits but it wasn’t so... pretentious about it. I don’t really collect Gundams but I have most of the suits from this series. My favorite is the EZ8 Gundam. Just dope designs.

First time I’ve seen an anime get penalized for being realistic. Interesting.
