While most other scifi shows are set within huge galaxies or even the solar system, the entire Gundam series is set within the Geocentric orbit of Earth. Despite that, the Gundam universe somehow feels more lived in and bigger compared to a series like Star Wars
>>214482172too bad their robots look so shitty, best thing the shows have going for them is Machu
Retarded ass weeb thread>>>/a/and stay there
>>214482172No character in Star Wars is better written than Char. Luke died horribly and Anakin is an autistic idiot.
>>214482172Star Wars struggles with moral ambiguity and any scenario in which anything other than le objective good guys decisively win in the end because it's a children's world view given celluloid form. It's why Ben Shapiro likes Rise of Skywalker so much, it's absolute trashslop but all he cares about is that the White ethnostate allegory gets utterly annihilated.You'll never see a character like Treize in Star Wars.
>>214482283He and Haman are criminally underdiscussed by Western critics; they're legitimately some of the best-written characters in fiction.
>>214482447and funny
>>214482510worst gundam
>>214482553best gundam, who cares about a bunch of soldiers like the other showsmachu is best girl
>>214482172That's because Star Wars does the same formula over and over again. It hasn't changes from sand planet through most of the movies and shows
>>214482585I want to like gquack, but it really isn't a good show. Machu isn't even a character. None of the new characters are relevant since in the end the series is just about referencing the old UC cast, except they only had like 12 eps so most of the major stuff isn't even explained.>Char went missing because of the big magic science explosions>except he actually didn't go anywhere at all or somehow came back just fine, manage to infiltrate, help build and sneak some special function in the gigantic plot device in a different organization and also somehow met the blue haired stoner dude and gain knowledge about the multiverse, all off screen>the movie prologue teases Artesia being the NT pilot in Amuro's place>the series does nothing with her, then suddenly in the final episode, she's the new ruler of ZeonGquacks is basically a Lalah fanfic where the writer just wants to write a Lalah x Char fic.>>214482283Char is a great antagonist. He's got that right blend of charismatic and petty. Has grand vision, certainly acts on it notably in Zeta but at the same time still bogged down by his little squabble with Amuro.
where to start with gundam?
>>214483091The very first series
>>214482172But they're Megazord with wings.
>>214482172>Gundam series don't speak English/a/ has its own board, and stay there.
>>214483140okay starting now
>>214482172>Despite that, the Gundam universe somehow feels more lived in and bigger compared to a series like Star WarsUsed Future was a fucking aesthetic mistake. We need to go back.
>comparing Star Wars to an animuIs this /tv/ related?
Why won't gundam leave the solar system?
>>214484041To where? Even colonies still need the sun.
>>214484050Because certain shit out there is more than any Gundam Turn X or Turn A could deal with. For that, you are going to need a...better mecha series
>>214484089Wrong series
>>214482172For a mecha series, they do go the extra mile in designing the non-mecha vehicles.
>>214482172What do they eat?
>>214482172nah the expanse beats the piss out of your weeb trash as far as geocentric orbit goes, especially if you read the books. also mecha shit is so fucking gay. its a shame because i like sci fi but instead of spaceships its gay ass giant robots in space. i was reading a sci fi book at work once and my morbidly obese sweaty manager was like "you like space?" and i'm like "yeah, i guess" and he immediately goes on about mecha weeb shit. his face went blank when i brought up actual sci fi, like a downy trying to do addition. >>>/a/ stay there you faggot
>>214484041They don't even live on Earth.
>>214482510>>214482585>the moment I'd fell in love with Machu, after not watching anime for yearsPlease discuss this on /a/.
