Grey Snow Posted December 30, 2008 I'm watching it now and I have no idea what's going on since I just jumped right into it. Too bad it's not like the old days of G Gundam, that was fairly easy to jump into... Quote Link to comment

Too bad it's not like the old days of G Gundam, that was fairly easy to jump into... That's because G Gundam is like GUNDAM FITE READY GO and it's like TEQUILA GUNDAM VERSUS WINDMILL GUNDAM AND THEN THERE'S A GIANT PLATFORM THEY WOBBLE ON AND THEN IT'S BURNING GUNDAM WHO THEN IS LIKE "HERE I GO" AND HE'S ALL THIS HAND OF MINE IS BURNING RED IT'S MIGHTY ROAR TELLS ME TO SEIZE VICTORY ERUPTING BUUUUURRRNING FINGAAAA AND THEN SOME FLIRTING WITH HIS MECHANIC FOR LIKE 40 EPISODES AND THEN THEY KILL A GIANT GUNDAM DRAGON THE END. ALL CAPS. Quote Link to comment

ALL CAPS. Eh, more or less, but it did have more in depth plotlines at points, but it was still great, but then again, it was my first Gundam series, just like how the Ninth Doctor was my first Doctor (Doctor Who) and now I can't stand his replacement, maybe it's that effect but in Gundam...

It was very much the OMG SUPER ROBOTS portion of Gundam. Gundam 00 and Wing and so forth are all very serious and deep in contrast. Quote Link to comment

Never saw Wing, only saw about 1 and a half episodes of 00 so far, saw a chunk of SEED, except Cartoon Network really screwed that season in the US, but SEED was great. Quote Link to comment
Janus Posted December 30, 2008 If you enjoyed SEED, then you'll enjoy Douboro and Wing. SEED was a rather dumbed down update of the original Mobile Suit Gundam, with much of the first half being taken practically verbatim from the original series--and the fact that the intelligence of the show was definately taken down in order to appeal to the youngsters more. While I enjoyed SEED myself to an extent, it is still one of the most tame examples of Gundam in existance. Whereas Gundam 00 takes on the interesting enough concept of using Armed force to erase armed force permanently. A War on war, so-to-speak. From there it evolves into different takes on terrorism, and war effecting the civilian population--and what you're willing to sacrifice to change the world. My personal favourite, Gundam Wing, deals with the concepts of pacificism in face of war, and the concept of honor on the battle field. Including (A first for any Gundam series) the introduction of unmanned suits called Mobile Dolls, forcing the issue of drones over human lives. Something which is showing up to an extent in 00. I'd highly, higly suggest you watch both Gundam 00 and Gundam Wing, but make sure you also Watch Endless Waltz--it completes the Wing Story, and completes the circle of pacifism. -Janus Quote Link to comment
