Gundam - Official discussion thread #2

[jcx250]

I don't know.

[Shinigami Ichigo]

Nope, it is 3 episodes. For those who have seen it, is Stargazer any good?

[Reonic Flux]

I've never seen it, but from the looks from it, it may be good.

[Ashminigun]

Basically, it tells the events happens during the aftermath of the fall of Junius Seven on EAF side, events before the Berlin massacre aka

 

protecting landship carrying Destroy Gundam (with brief cameo of Neo and the surviving Extended pilots)

and

 

EAF attempts to acquired Stargazer

.

The first two episodes is quite ok since the cast of characters doesn't includes Anakin-esque both emotional and sense of justice aspects and all are in adult ages. It also includes a 5 mins flashback of what made the main character (Sven) to be in the Stargazer. Few things I'm annoyed with this series: yes, it short but at least it has some flow in the storyline. The ending it's a bit cliffhanger, since we don't know what really happened to both of the main characters (Yes, it involved a Natural and a Coordinator).

My final say, it's a good story, just the ending is a bit typical.

ok time to change the subject even though stargazer was good..... hell it was better then all of destiny anyway dont you guys ever wondered why its always the colonies who end up being the real bad guys at the end of each series its always a colony drop or some super weapon that can screw up earth really bad and why are the main character always a guy come on i wanna see a girl pilot owning some MS butt.

[Steven JR.]

because I am evil I am going to tell you how it ends.....the war ends earth wins Mwu Lu Fraga, Bajiruru, and Frey Alstar all die which made me pissed

[sh0cq]

hmm a gundam seed movie? when is it coming out? i liked seed but destiny was really bland, like a bad excuse for a sequel. It lacked depth and a good storyline... more like fan service for GS =( Hopefully in the movie they could stop re-using fight scenes, character faces (most of the main characters have the same face with different hairstyles), and most importantly... not have kira steal the limelight AGAIN.

[ParaParaJMo]

The GSD movie supposed to be out this year or next. Kira, Athuran, and Shin are FAITH members in the movie. According to Houko Kuwashima, Stellar (and Fllay's) seiyuu, Stellar will have a role somehow.

[Ashminigun]

As a Newtype ghost-alike probably, similar to Lalah Sunne role in Char's Counterattack.

[hiddenwater]

If your talkin about the Gundam 00 series i have not seen it yet...but ive read the synopsis and the story line seems similer to Gundam wing but it looks promising.

[REDEYESBLACKDRAGON]

yeah gundams now adays are shown in reruns

[International 4-8818]

gundam in america is not shown at all. Sucks major male genitalia.

anyway, like transformers, wouldn't it just be frickin' sweet if they came up with a gundam movie with real actors and the whole shabang?!

I think the story of Gundam is too complicated. If I miss an episode, I will not understand the next episodes.

I think the story of Gundam is too complicated. If I miss an episode, I will not understand the next episodes.

Nah not too complicated at all.. And it's generally known that you should watch every episode, or at least read an episode summery.

It's more a matter of knowing such and such events that've happened in the previous episode.

[Ashminigun]

Typically, in this great shounen (mostly) mecha saga, the protagonist will triumph over the antagonist in the end; regardless whatever the faction he/she aligned to (mostly, the one with white-blue-red-a bit of yellow Gundam colour scheme if there are more than one Gundam present in the series). What's matter most is what's in the between. It can be adaption of previous series or total new one.

However, most of today's long series anime have episodes dedicate on a character or re-cap, which some of them can be skip and you wouldn't missing anything if miss an episode or two. As for politics, use your imagination to fill in the blanks and most probably they will return to the topic in many episodes to come (it will be a challenge for those who are just for the mecha/girls/boys/etc, not the whole package).

The Gundam Series (Wing, 0083, Seed, Destiny, etc.)are really good. But I prefer G Gundam, it is excellent!

Have you ever seen G Gundam?

[cyborgmonkey22]

i haven't seen every gundam series but the ones i have seen are awesome, well with the exception of that lame excuse of a show sd gundam force which was a mere kids show. but the ones i do like and the only other ones i've seen are gundam wing, g gundam, gundam 8th ms team, gundam seed, gundam seed destiny, and the movie gundam wing: endless waltz. i've seen parts of the original series but not enough to form an accurate judgment on it.
