Yeah motherfuckers, this thread is about Gundams and Gundam love. Not like, love between two Gundams, or a gundam and person, but love for the Gundam cartoons.

At the top of the list we have G Gundam. 'What is this g Gundam?' you ask?

this pretty much describes it

yes, that is a horse gundam, driven by a horse. it is the series I'm rewatching because I own it and it was some of the best $120 I ever spent.


everyone's typical favorite, though, is Gundam Wing.

this sums up gundam wing

you all talk about the gundams you love, I'm gonna get another drink.

    WOOOO
    Gundam 00 is watchable, in my opinion. I like the four main Gundams, and the smooth animation.

    G Gundam was pretty bad ass.

    And all the UC stuff (except G-Saviour, and to a certain degree, F91)

    Everything else that's been translated and brought over is pretty awful, though. That'd be Wing, SEED, SEED D, and what I've seen so far (about 12 episodes) of 00.

    I remember when I was in middle school Gundam Wing was the coolest stuff ever

    okay so I finally decided to give G Gundam a chance and just saw the first episode of it and kinda liked it
    from all the praise I've heard, I'm assuming that the awesomeness of the series does not falter, but instead becomes greater as the show goes on

    Episode 10 is when it starts to take off.

    The only bummer is that there's a lot more filler than I initially remembered from seeing it on Toonami way back when. I rewatched it again with friends over the last couple months, and it'll have about 5 episodes of story and then 3 or 4 episodes of filler to pad it, followed by more story episodes.

    Trying to rewatch Gundam Wing with a friend of mine right now. Man, it's terrible, but there's a lot more fighting than in most of the other series predating it. We're at the halfway point.

    Not only that, but it goes on:

    The 5 episodes to introduce everyone
    4 or 5 more where he meets them all a second time
    Shinjuku
    4 or 5 more where he trains with them all in the guyanna highlands
    The end of the gayanna highlands arc
    The tournament starts and there are 4 or 5 more episodes following them all around
    Then some story
    Then some more episodes following them
    Then the last 10 or so episodes are just pure, non-stop awesome
