0079 unironically

When does Victory get good?

gundam in name only
too old. graphics are bad

if you have to ask, aka you are newcomer to the series, then its 08th Ms Team, great but shortish ova with little to no prerequisite knowledge of the universe.

inb4 nerds try to talk you into starting gundam with 50+ episode of imperfect marathons

00 s1 is the best modern gundam

war in the pocket

How so?

Don't know what people like about this. It was my least favorite UC entry.

Awesome first half then everything just gone full Gundam, should have sticked to the war theme in the jungle wtf

It's the holy grail of realismfags because Igloo is such obvious dogshit no one could possible defend it

There a problem user?

Same guy here. I liked IGLOO 1 and 2 a lot

Euraka seven.

Based and anti-UC pilled. Wing was pretty bad though.

I'm biased because I grew up with Gundam Wing, but I could easily marathon all 49 episodes plus Endless Waltz and it still wouldn't get old. Such a great memorable cast, an amazing dub, some of the coolest MS designs in the entire franchise, the music is fantastic, and the story taking place from the perspectives of the terrorists is a cool change of pace.

Some of the issues brought up in Wing are also very relevant today, specifically the moral discussion of the use of drones in warfare, and whether an autonomous drone should be able to make the decision to kill people instead of that responsibility falling onto the shoulders of living pilots.

War in the Pocket for story. Thunderbolt for aesthetic and style.

it looks choppy and unnatural compared to modern computer animated gundams
compare 00 with that old crap and tell me 0079 had more fluid, visceral battles

yeah but Char exists

Destiny, no question
Wrong

You mistyped s2.
Nah, Wing holds up.

How did he dodge it what the fuck

he's the flash

The original is a classic for a reason, that show has aged visually, but even so it still has great direction and visual composition despite how wonky it looks at times.
The compilation movies look a lot better though.

Other than that 00 is an amazing modern HD Gundam series and probably the best one to air since Turn A
Aside from build fighters it's the only modern Gundam series that felt completely planned out from start to finish.
G-Reco is kinda good, but I don't like to recommend it because it's very hard to get into

Mobile Suit Gundam

Zeta Gundam
0080
Gundam 00

Honourable mentions to CCA, X and G

Turn Lame was boring, dude

This is right here. Good choice user.

Boring is a non-criticism and there was not a second I was bored during Turn A anyway. Go take your ADD medication.

Also, honourable mention to ZZ. I'd list it at 5, if not for the first 18 episodes (until they meet Ple). Everything after that is as good or nearly as good as Zeta (especially the Dakar/Dublin arc). And when Glemy comes into his own around then, the show really kicks off in continuing the themes that Zeta started exploring.

0079 by a long shot

Turn A

00 is the best and looks the best

No, they killed off best girl with half assed bullshit.

Is Unicorn worth watching? How about IBO?

Wing

Attached: otpp.jpg (900x563, 109K)

Unicorn's pretty stupid but it's got really really good production value and some cool fights.

I like G Gundam, Turn A, and Reconguista. Seed was okay. 00 and Wing are overrated. IBO is for people that have a cruchyroll account.
I still need to watch the rest.

The story of IGLOO 1 isn't bad, and I would actually say it's pretty good. But the CG is just so bad. If it weren't for that, I would easily say it'd be among the top on my list. IGLOO 2 was dogshit though.

>tfw there will never be another gritty, grounded mecha anime like this

Zeta

Even if he dodged it, the shock waves should've still torn him apart.

Leina is all you need to look at to see how much care was put into ZZ's writing, it never gets better. Joke of a death and joke of a resurrection to shoehorn in a reference to an older character for no reason.
Oh and Rasara's death too, that's some top tier kino. Imagine dying because rubble fell next to you.

Anime jya nai!
ZZ is the bessshhh
others are just spin off.

The same thing happened in Zeta but you didn't watch either

Amuro, I disagree with a lot of things you've just said but I love you

Sayla swoops into a random island off screen to save a character from a bomb she had no idea was coming in Zeta? And then they reveal that in a fucking episode preview and shelf it for 10 episodes? Must have missed that episode.
Or are you talking about the death from literally nothing? Also missed that episode, I should pay more attention.

Zeta and Kamille are top tier, non-believer

>I should pay more attention.
Yes you should

Attached: four.jpg (1000x1365, 124K)

Tomino didn't want to show real violence in ZZ that's why there are so many weird incongruities like that

People die shitty deaths. Do you not remember how Katz died?

destiny-00
because it has the best songs

Zeta is Kino

"0080 War in the Pocket" does the best job of getting the themes of the series across.

All alternate reality series are garbage.

0079 has great fighting choreography

As a major 00 fag, I have to say that you don't know jack shit about quality animation.
Take your dumb ass elsewhere.

Probably Gundam Origin if you only care about story/plot. CG is horrible though.

For old series I pick 0079. Characters in the sequels after that are just too 'Tomino' for me. For modern series I think 00 is still the best. Lack of beam weapon in Orphans made it visually less appealing.

Btw, has anyone watched Narrative? Is it good?

>Probably Gundam Origin if you only care about story/plot.
Then you should stay the fuck away from Origin because the retcons and mischaracterizations are shit.

Retcons are the definitive versions though.

Turn A and 0080 are the most patrician Gundam series. And I've watched nearly all of them.

IBO had a pretty good first season and don't bother watching the second

I watched everything except IBO, which I dropped like halfway through S1 due to hating basically every single character.
IMO the thing worth watching the most is, by far, the original storyline - 0079-Zeta-CCA.
ZZ is optional, as the two main characters do not make an appearance there. You can easily revisit it after CCA if you want to and not miss anything.
0079 movies are an acceptable substitute for the TV series. Zeta movies are not.

The second 0079 movie is terrible. The series has superior pacing and the character-building moments have more breathing room and create greater impacts.

Kamille is a perfectly good name for a guy

>The series has superior pacing
Yeah, especially with those like 20 monster of week episodes.

>character-building moments have more breathing room
Yeah no shit it condenses stuff. You're blaming the films for being films at this point.

I'm not here to argue, neither version is perfect but if you want to get the gist of it the story, the movies are a fine substitute. One can always revisit the TV series later on.

It lets the exhaustion and war fatigue of the White Base crew set in, and there are always character-building side plots in those episodes. Plus, it generally splits the episodes into arcs with certain relevant opponents, such as Ramba Ral. The films are also overly restrictive with the character moments, and as a result too much of the weight is missing from those versions of 0079.

I'd appreciate it if you delete this and never post this image ever again

I'll just read it on a wiki if I really care, not worth digging through 0079's janky 70s kids cartoon animation and story beats for that development

rest in fucking peace Ramba Ral

its not my favorite but it seems to be the best from the majority of Gundum fans.

>Turn A and 0080 are the most patrician Gundam series
Then why are they rated so much lower on MAL than the newer ones?

I don't understand how it can be your least favorite when Unicorn and Narrative exist. Even 0083 is better than that shit.

first
>MAL
mild yikes there, and second it might possibly have to do with both of those shows being from before most casuals viewers could place Japan on the map.

Wikis are horrible for actually experiencing things.
