I don't know why some of you shit on it so much I liked it
>>23732402
>>23732402Well you see, it's an installment in the Gundam franchise.
>>23732402Good mobile suitsTrash characters, except sanders norris and karen
>>23732437kekw
>>23732438>hating kiki
>>23732402It's a perfectly good 7/10 show.
>>23732594inb4 murder death kill
>>23732437heh, eh
>>23732594Annoying childWe were so close to having a teenage-angst-free hundam experience but she fucked it up
>>23732402It's literally Romeo and Juliet with robots
>>23733409They're not rival families, so not literally.
>>23732402I don't hate it, but I didn't want it to focus more on the grunt work, but Bandai wants Gundams:-Instead of GM's or variants, the cast uses Gundams, but they're not as good as the RX-71.-Shiro as an MC just gets worse as time goes on. Optimism and idealism is one thing, but he just comes across as naive for his age.-Near the last 4-5 episodes, it starts doing a lot of stupid things, like Shiro dodging zaku machine guns on foot and not getting ripped apart or blown away, and Norris with his almost magical teleporting Gouf.
>>23732402????Granted that the 08th MSfags are retarded but it's universally lauded as one of the best Gundam show (for the wrong reasons).
>>23736298Only in the states cause it appeals to mechwarrior fags
>>23732402The love story was dumb as hell. I don't mind a rapid fire romance but even here this takes the cake.
>>23736536It was 12th in NHK Gundam poll, immediately below 0083 and 0080.
>>23733409It's more reminiscent of The Forty-First.
>>23732402Generally speaking, most American Gundam fans love 08th. If you want to talk to people that like 08th MS Team, go talk to some american millennials, and be prepared for them to remember nothing but the Gouf fight and maybe episodes 2-3
>>23736298>>23736580What are these wrong reasons? What makes an American fanbase bad?All this stuff about the live action film and it being based off 08th MS, I've seen a lot of people saying uh oh and I guess I haven't been around long enough to really get what they mean.
>>23732402I hate the plotline where they think a mobile suit having a reactor melt-down is equivalent to detonation a nuclear warhead. The entire show is like that, it wants to be grounded but it's actually more nonsense than the mainline shows.
>>23737032I never said I wasn't one of those American millennials.https://youtu.be/ZvxbaH2BQhg?si=402fJsquRB6AKIgdThis always got me hyped as FUCK, mostly because it was on the midnight run and I had to sneak downstairs to watch it with the perfect volume where my folks couldn't hear it, which doubled the excitement of watching it. That's my memory of 08th MS Team, being a sneaky kid and watching it in secret because I couldn't stay up that late.
>>23733407>she fucked it up>The guerilla fighter who actively helped the 08th team and whose only hang-up was her crush on Shiro>She fucked it up>Not Michel, the whiny asshole who was around the same age and pined for his stacey girlfriend who dumped his ass.Not sure if bait or if you never actually seen the show.
>>23737587>they think a mobile suit having a reactor melt-down is equivalent to detonation a nuclear warhead.Except that's kind of ALWAYS been established even in earlier works? See: F91 and Victory where they actually shoot reactors for a desperate nuclear strike?
>>23733409Cringe. Falling in love with an enemy soldier is not Romeo and Juliet.
Ep4 is scary
>>23736580>maybe episodes 2-3Even that seems generous.
Best Gundam, do not listen to "fans" as many of them unironically watch and enjoy Unicorn which not only has faggy magical robots but also the most bland and shallow characters and the most pointless plot. More than any fandom I find tastes vary wildly.
>>23732402/m/ is full of retarded trannies that enjoy SEED fujo stories and jerking off to Mecha Gaikotsu videos.
Because this specific video has done irreparable damage to the fanbase
>>23733407>We were so close to having a teenage-angst-free hundamf91, stardust memory and G gundam say hi
>>23739345/m/ has been SEED's #1 hater since before the /m/ board even existed. This is a containment board because /a/ was being overrun with SEED hatedom.
>>23740192this is the earliest idea of a board mascot I can recall
>>23732402It's good but it kinda shits the bed towards the end.
>>23740296i dig it, reminds me of carl from athf fused with a yellow peril ww2 cartoon, but without compromising on the fat ugly old bastard archetype that we all embody deep down inside
>>23740192Old /m/ maybe. Nu /m/ like >>23739345 has been infested with tranny faggot contrarians that shat up the board in the past decade and now Seed, AGE, and Wing is considered king while the actual good shit like X, G, and even 0080 is considered garbage.
>>23737587Retard.
