Which other characters in CE deserved a SEED mode power-up?
>>23664544SEED mode Rau Le Creuset would've been unstopable.>ZAFT's supreme ace pilot>Actually a natural per MG Providence manual.>No SEED mode.>Against the likes of Yzak/Dearka/Mwu, goes full Palpatine vs. Maul/Savage, i.e., "likes to play with his food">Rightfully mocks Lacus>Fought a bloody, prolonged duel against a lusted Kira in one of the most epic fights in the franchise.>Lost the duel, but definitely won the argument.>Guaranteed to have kicked Athrun's ass handily if they fought 1 v. 1>Rey and Orphee are cheap knock-offs of him.>Some of Durandal's best scenes involve him literally having a full-on conversation with a hallucinated Rau.
>>23664608That would mean Mu and Rey would have to have SEED too
>>23664617Nah, you can gatekeep it from Mwu and just blame his "weak mother"SEED Rey I'm all for as he would've put up a better fight against Kira instead of flawless victory.Or maybe such a fight would've never happened because Rau would've beat Kira and won in SEED.Hmm...
>>23664544>>23664608>Dr. Hibiki activates SEED mode when Kira is conceived and successfully Coordinated>Izumi activates SEED mode when he says something hypocritical, and the universe bends over backwards to portray him as right>Lowe activates SEED mode when he searches for junk>Al Da Flaga is evolved beyond SEED mode and his SEED has become TREE
>>23664636>Gundam TREE
Too many undeserving shitters already got it. Should've just made it the biggest ultimate coordinator buff so only Kira and Cagalli got it (though maybe with an Extended-like downtime afterwards since hers wasn't intended). That's how you can explain her contributing in battle despite only piloting once a decade
>>23664608>definitely won the argument.I think the beam saber to the face was a pretty effective rebuttal>you shouldn’t exist! Mankind is destined to perish, by their own han- ACK
>>23664680>I think the beam saber to the face was a pretty effective rebuttalNah, cuz Rau died smiling. And 2 years later after Junius 7 fell, his thesis was further corroborated.
>>23664680Literally just silencing a man because of his dissenting opinion and the inability to refute his argument.
>>23665023>”I’m sad so everyone should just die!”>”no u”Seemed pretty effective to me
>>23665023Kira kind of won the argument much earlier in the fight where he says that Rau's just letting his own shitty life color his perception on everything and everything and Rau says Kira's exactly right but he doesn't really care because "that's how people are". At that point Kira basically won because he got Rau to admit that his own view was warped but didn't care which makes any further debate pointless.
I still don't understand, why seeds?
>>23665291i don't think the show creators understand either, but it's not hard to bullshit your own reason. however i'm firmly in the camp of explain everything, even newtypes, unless it exists for macgufffin reasons
>>23665291Because it's supposed to symbolize the potential for humanity to evolve to the next stage
