>272gb to download mobile suit gundam (1979)

Is it worth it?
>>
No, it looks bad either way, if anything lower res smooths out the edges. It also kinda shit.
It's like the original macross, you should watch it once for cultural relevancy, but the later iterations usually improve.
Like even zeta right after it is way better looking with a way more coherent plot and characters.

You can just watch the movies, they are on YouTube officially for free.
I actually just watched a few weeks ago for the first time. They get better as they go. First one is meh and kind of a mess. There are some good moments in it. And the first episode of the original is really good. Second film is better and more solid. Amazing for it's time, but still mid by today's standards. Third one was actually really good, but the dated animation does hold it back.
I regretted starting it after the first one, but was really glad I powered through by the end of the third one.
Also universal popular opinion, but wathing The Orgin OVAs added a lot to it for me. Like it really adds a lot to the world building and characters. And I would have never even considered watching it in the first place of it wasn't for watching that first.
UC is a beast though. I want to watch 08th MS team again and Stardust Memory, then it's time for Zeta.

I got my normie sister to watch ONE gundam show with me after betting on her who'd win the world series but I'm still heavily debating which one I should pick.
I think she'd like Turn A but I have a feeling the early episodes would filter her.
Otherwise I was thinking
>G
Good fun, great character dynamics, great music. It's genuinely a good time.
>Seed
Honestly I like this a shit ton but I just don't feel comfortable with making someone's first entry to Gundam this. I don't know, even though it's pretty close to 0079, I feel like as an AU it does its own thing way differently. it's like a 2000s era soap drama masked as a gundam series and i love that shit but it's not how i want to introduce her to gundam.
>0080
A little too short and I want her to watch something longer otherwise this would be perfect. I can probably get her to watch it in the future
>00
Similar reason to SEED except I don't have the autistic love for it.
>X
Even I haven't finished this yet. Not bad but it's on my list.
>Turn A
It's one of my favorite Gundam but again the coming of age stuff might be a bit too much.
>0079
Too depressing, not really a "fun" watch (I mean it is but for a normie it probably wouldn't be).

You know that you can just download parts of torrents right? You can just watch the first few episodes first.

damn it was a fun time and it reads more like starship troopers (the book) rather than what the gundam anime is. It's weird seeing all the cast not have emotional outbursts at each other. all of them are strangely amicable with each other because they've all signed up for the war rather than forced into it. bright even banters with the crew.

I'd honestly like to see them try to adapt this if they ever try "remaking" gundam again. but then again the book is like 75% newtype mumble bumble so idk if people would get filtered. like as I said it reads more like starship troopers but instead of social and political mumble jumble it's all sci fi mumble jumble

Man, I have a GQ kit that I've backlogged for a while because I'm still assblasted they took a cool concept and just fucked it up for whatever the fuck that was. They took like 4 great ideas (honestly 3 because I could give two fucking shits about Lalah and Char's dimensional romance) and didn't do a SINGLE fucking thing good with it. FUCK

Absolutely bullshit. Gundam 1979 is one of the most watchable entries of the entire series. Zeta onwards (even with some occasional fantastic entries) are filled to the brim with shit writing, annoying characters and are borderline incoherent. Original MSG has almost none of those problems.

>>
>>283593742
That's why he was written as if he was an autist with split personality issues, huh? Darth Vader from Slop Wars even had better writing. Not that Char was a bad character, but I don't think he is that much better than other characters from the same show that people somehow do not yap about that often.

You're legitimately just braindead retarded. 0079 is the most straightforward Gundam series. Zeta also has Reccoa, a character almost as incoherent and retarded as Katejina. The core cast in Zeta and ZZ are just worse in general compared to the core cast in 0079.

I just really like him despite his flaws, he's sympathetic and relatable, and is pretty cool regardless. I do love how the character still sparks so much discussion and different interpretations which, yeah bad writing can do that too, but I don't think CCA Char necessarily contradicts Zeta Char, although the latter is definitely when he was the healthiest.

I watched the movies three times, the original series once, and read Origins. Honestly they complement each other and it keeps getting better at every rewatch, movies especially. Once you have a bit of context you realize how nuanced they are - the problem is that Tomino has no talent at anything besides raw ideas, so everything is exectued in the most autistic, technically poor way possible. He sees characters better than almost any other director though, describes human interactions in a way you don't see anywhere else in anime - and has genuine groundbreaking sci-fi ideas that aging incredibly well. The environmental themes, the need for empathy, his whole vision of what a post-earth (post-human?) world would look like and the kind of conflict (and conflict resolution) it might require is all incredibly actual and deep. This is miles above Eva with its high-school philosophy and "why mummy doesn't love me" "why girls won't sex me" bullshit, and has actual adult themes.

Reccoa is a character that seems incoherent from the outside but makes sense when you see her actions from her point of view. The issue (besides her being unlikeable) is that her character arc is poorly paced so when she defects it seems like it came out of nowhere when in reality it all started when she was introduced.
>>
>>283593742
Yes, he is a broken, depressed man. His actions are inexcusable though.

He riled up a belligerent political faction, sent hundreds of soldiers to die and threatened to destroy Earth and kill millions of people. No matter how depressed you are, there's no way to justify those actions. Especially considering that it was all gambit to bait Amuro for a last fight. And considering how bad he jobs at that fight it seems like it was all an intricate and extremely long attempt at suicide by proxy.

At the end he is so petty he isn't even willing to admit he was wrong or admit Quess' and Lalah's deaths were his fault.

And before you continue sucking Char's dick bear in mind that Amuro, too, was forced to become a soldier against his will at a young age, he was forced to abandon his family, he reluctantly became a symbol for a political faction that was merely using him, he loved Lalah and and to bear the guilt of killing her (plus the all the Newtype bullshit including Lalah tormenting him after death), etc. Plus he also had mommy issues of his own.

Yet Amuro was full of hope and did the right thing until the end. No matter how you put it, Char is not even half the man Amuro is.
>>
>>283593444
Depends on what your sisters tastes are. Does she like action at all or just kind of tolerate it? I think 0080 is the best pick if youre not showing her 0079.

Yeah, only Tomino understand Char's character without having to suck his dick, origin was terrible.

>>283593742
Char by CCA was just done with everything, the Lalah mommy thing was him about lamenting everything he lost and how alone he truly felt on that moment by being honest to Amuro because he is the only one who could understand him, or that's what Char thought.
>>
>>283603833
That's not exactly it but it's more of that oldtypes (boomers) are fucking ruining the world.

Yeah but given the events from 0079/Z/ZZ. No shit this dude would snap, how did these fuckers miss the point so hard? People are snapping today RIGHT now, they're probably seething over their own government and can't equate that maybe this is a reflection on today's society.

Yeah, Char got his heart broken far too many times by that point, I still can't believe how Char's monologue that happens right after Zeta's final episode is locked to a fucking PS1 game.

I don't think you really need it but I think these fuckers NEEDED the explanation. It's like when people go "why is katejina evil???" (these fuckers would never watch Victory unless it's for the funny messed up memes)
>>
>>283601514
>that game was made decades after he film
Obviously but that’s on ZZ for just having Char vanish.
Kamille was exactly what Char and his father’s ideals wanted to foster for the future of humanity. Him ending up another causality of Federation retardation certainly didn’t help him losing his patience with Earth.
>>
Amuro's philosophy sucks too. All he does is twiddle his thumbs and just hope humanity changes for the better. He'll go on peacekeeping missions sure, but he knows short term he won't change shit.
>>
>>283604079
Katejina was such an interesting character, it was fun to watch her go from reasonable woman that doesn't think we should do war and shit to how she ended up cumming while watching two men fight to the death for her.
>>
>>283604253
She was sorta always like that. It's just more of she's "hiding it on the guise of what a proper girl" should be like. War is bad but now all those creepy old men are dead yay.

You can find Blue disk quality for 50GB if size is bothering you.

The series itself, well, some details that didn't make it into the movies are definitely worth it. Like when they need Mirai to act as a captain and she is not really suited for the job.
And plenty of other small technological details.

Do expect some really silly filler tho.
>>
>>283605234
Your hatred for Quess clouds your judgement. There are minor pacing issues and a huge lack of established events between 0087 and 0093. That could be blamed on the nature of the movie and it's limited runtime. Also you probably didn't recognize how good the plot is because it's written in shorter more disjointed scenes for better and denser expression of a vision.

the 273gb hchcsen release is a BDremux.
Kagura is the best release that is actually an encode and its only 80gb or so; if you're EOP you can just get the EG subs and play them together in mpv since it's a RAW encode.

I totally agree. I started with the movie trilogy several years ago, after some /a/nons recommended it as a starting point for the UC (previously I've only seen Wingslop, SNEED, 00). I thought it was kind of fine, but nothing impressive. After giving the original series a try years later, wow. Without any doubt I can admit that the original series is better than movies in possibly every aspect. Better writing, pacing, worldbuilding, characters.

Amuro did everything wrong, he didnt do jackshit while having tremendous influence and power in the Earth federation. He is a cog in the machine that supposedly “wants” change but doesnt do anything monumental to actually change things. What does Amuro fight for? He just sides with the feds and kills anyone who goes against his way. There is absolutely no point to his fight at all. This is the same with Unicorn too, at least with Camille and Judau, both of them realised that the best way is to get absolutely as far away from anything Earth related.

Yeah, even if he did something, the federation's corruption given those circumstances isn't something that needs to be dismantled. Not necessarily going along with Zeon's antics, but the corruption won't go away on its own nor will the leaders that don't give a fuck suddenly start giving one.

It does, but I think nearly every Gundam series has a point where it goes completely erratic and loses the plot for a bit.

Why yes I actually love the true CCA: Beltorchika Children. Where peak Char is portrayed with conviction.

Gundam TV is a self contained coherent narrative.
Gundam Zeta doesn't work without retconning the hell out of Gundam TV.

I sometimes forget the SEED Freedom song has a movie attached to it.

Well, ignoring 7, it is true.

>>283621989
what are some of the major retcons? i'm genuinely curious
biggest one i can think of off the top of my head is haro being a generic toy instead of a one of a kind gift from amuro to fraw
>>
>>283624321
Zeta doesn't retcon Haro plot point, that was Origin.
Only one that I can recall is Lalah's death sequence being shown from EiS rather than TV in flashback.

>>283624380
i swear bright dismisses haro to kamille claiming that there are a ton of them out there right after he brings it back to the argama, although iirc haro also greets bright right after mentioning amuro and fraw so maybe he was bullshitting kamille and i took him seriously

Turn A, 0079 (primarily for its first third), 00 S1, War in the Pocket and MS IGLOO (both seasons) are my favorite Gundam shows
Anyway, I am watching SDFM currently and even thought it has less mechas and fewer battles than Gundam, I consider it a vastly superior series because of the character interactions

Also I watched Zeta three times and dropped Turn A so maybe don't listen to me. The 'this person looks exactly like me' subplot makes me physically ill. It sucked in The Origin too.
>>
>>283627047
Char and Amuro are the only Gundam characters that can compare
Okay, maybe also Flay

>favorite anime ever made is Zeta Gundam
How much asprin should I take if I want it to act as a blood thinner before I slit my wrists?

The only thing CCA was good for were the fightscene animation cause outside of that its super weak and half-baked.

As somebody who loves The Sopranos there is nothing wrong with your anti-hero having an Oedipus complex.

Unlike Origin, Turn A ties in the doppelganger subplot with the theme of identity and newtypism.
It's also a pretty old japanese folklore.
