No wonder seed failed, look how uninspired their MS design is compared to the OG.
>>23992329>Made enough money to get a sequel season, various sidestories and a movie>"SEED failed u gaiz!"Go back tourist.
>SEED failedpeople who genuinely think this are what, in their 50's by now?
Failed insofar as making actually worthwhile designs and a good story, he means. Which is fair.
>>23992509>worthwhile designsMost gundam failed by that logic.
>>23992536Not UC, but seed definitely fails.
>>23992509>Failed insofar as making actually worthwhile designs>GINN kits still being made.
>>23993931Nah, garbage like F91 and Victory are definite failures and only Tomino deepthroaters are deluded into thinking they were anything but. Even in so-called acclaimed series like Zeta, no one actually gives a shit about the dumb space monster designs like Hambrabi or Byarlant other than the aforementioned deepthroaters.
>>23992329>>23992483They clearly weren't uninspired enough.
>>23994232they already have doppel and launcher strikers for that, as well as fortressa armor package for a different shoulder gun
At least make an effort if you want to talk about "uninspired", OP.>In a 2013 interview about the Destiny remaster, Fukuda outright says that Sunrise's producer, Yasuo Miyakawa, wanted "a marketable unit, like the Zaku", so he just outright put a Z.A.K.U. in the show.Source: https://e-hentai.org/g/2058970/d791f08b25/Furthermore...>In a March 2004 interview, Bandai's Yoshihiro Kano said that, during SEED, the company had proposed the introduction of multiple Gundams, which left issues with the popularity of other MS, so he approached Bandai with the idea of introducing a popular model like the Zaku from the first series, and a remake-like model, the ZAKU Warrior, was born.>its "Zaku"-like appearance was controversial even among the production staff.>In the early arcs of the show, it was prioritized to be more active than the Second Stage Gundams, which led to good product sales at the time of its broadcast.
>>23992329The problem isn't with the designs in and of themselves (which I really dislike, to be fair: the GINN's ridiculous crest was a Fukuda thing and GuAIZ was designed by a literal child). It's that they never get a chance to shine because all the main characters are in fucking Gundams all the time.
>>24000451>GuAIZ was designed by a literal childAnd yet it's the best design in the show.
>>24000459Nobody cares about it, to the extent it doesn't even have a decent kit to this day.>here's your guaiz bro, not even an hg
>>24000468Yeah, unfortunately them being replaced by the much uglier Rs made the contempt they are held in abundantly clear.
