Re: What makes a good combat scene?
I think victory gundam (particularly in the second half, and especially in the last 10 or so episodes) probably had the best overall combat in my opinion. My opinion of this has certainly changed as I've gotten older, but I re watched gundam wing a few months ago and while enjoyable also came across...

Re: The Official Gundam AGE Anime Thread Mk III
To my pleasant surprise, it seems that my suspicions have been defied and she was never a part of the sinister EDEN/the UE to begin with after all. Say that again in after the next 2 episodes. :P The bad news: it seems as though that's about to change, if the episode preview is anything to go by. M...

Re: What's Your Current Anime? Mk III
I have been watching V Gundam as of late, and I must say it is great. I am at episode 30 or 31 and am very engrossed. Even the flaws of this series seem somehow charming. I think the characters just come across very well and Uso is such a great lead. His relationship with the older characters vs his...

Re: The Official Gundam AGE Anime Thread Mk III
There wasn't really a summoning of the Gundam. Before Vargas had to drive it out to Flit so I imagine something similar happened off screen. That is the story of this show. Though The geno ace fight was nice in that it was a bit more traditional than what we have gotten as of late. Aside from that ...

Re: The Official Gundam AGE Anime Thread Mk II
Yeah sorry I tend to rattle off my opinions a bit quick, but I'd say... The Fardain MS and the fact that they are still using those weapons and through all the preparations they did not consider they literally cannot damage the enemies... The fact that the Good Guys were even in this battle let alon...

Re: The Official Gundam AGE Anime Thread Mk II
I finally watched this episode. This series is weird...I mean there are things that are certainly cool, and it has good moments, but there are so many baffling and dumb things that happen it is kind of hard to deal with sometimes. I think it is a very good "just watch, don't ask questions"...

Re: The Official Gundam AGE Anime Thread Mk II
this show is pretty entertaining as of the last two. I don't know why every anime of all time has to have a seen where everybody becomes "for the cause" though. Not sure why he makes it seem like he is a vigilante though. True he may have held his position over the diva due to his shadines...

Re: Second V
Since this article is discussing tech in V Gundam I will ask here as opposed to a new thread. I am on episode 16, and enjoying things over all but what is with the beam rotors? I mean I just want someone to explain them in some way that does not make them a complete step backwards as far as ms mobil...

Re: G Reko
Man I am very excited by this. I am interested regardless, but if this is indeed more Tomino set in the universal century that is just simply awesome. I also have to say at first glance the promotional photo did not do much for me, but the more I looked at that mech it's design became much more eleg...

Re: The Official Gundam Unicorn Anime Thread Mk IV
wow that is unfortunate you are unable to enjoy them from reading the novel's first. I don't know what you expect though. Almost every movie that has a literary counterpart falls short, this is nothing new. I enjoyed the LOTR movies in highschool and it made me read fellowship of the ring as a resul...

Re: The Official Gundam AGE Anime Thread Mk II
I have to say I enjoyed this episode infinitely more than the last three. Though it is disappointing they wasted the two previous episodes just to set up this "useless conflict" scenario. That being said wow where do I begin. Though I was initially put off with the bulky titus and hand to ...

Re: The Official Gundam Unicorn Anime Thread Mk IV
I just watched the first four, and I don't have the time to form in depth opinions. I will say however I love it! Episode four was the first episode where I kind of scratched my head a little, but overall the show has been very satisfying. Especially after just watching ZZ for I am particularly liki...

Re: Double Zeta: What do you think about it?
I suppose in all fairness, Judau probably still went off to Jupiter to support Leina. That's what he was doing before the show, after all. I never really understood what was up with Glemy, to be honest. I wish the show had done something to explain how he went from "schmuck with the hots for R...

Re: Double Zeta: What do you think about it?
Yeah the Double Zeta was pretty awesome most of the the time. I really think it was more the writing of the show itself that made the zz outclass the zeta more than the machine itself. I swear Roux has a scene in each Gundam (Z and ZZ) where she just wrecks every one so bad Amuro OYW style, but othe...

Re: Double Zeta: What do you think about it?
well I can make no excuses for the first 17 episides. I genuinely think they are pretty bad. That being said this series has gotten quite awesome since then. Bright acting like Bright again! Roux is an awesome pilot, and ZZ is ridiculously powerful (in a good way). I don't love Judau as much as Kami...

Re: Ep. 089 - A New Age for Old Trolls
Overall agree with impressions on the first 4 episodes.
Best and worse parts of the podcast:
Geno Ace getting spawn camped.
Flit is a vengeful hot head?

Re: Double Zeta: What do you think about it?
Wow, I skipped all the previous discussion as I'm only at episode 18 so I did not want spoilers. All I can say is wow. I mean I really am pretty much just speechless at what is taking place in this show. I mean it is not like there are glaring holes in the story, it is just that everything is pretty...

I have had no problem with AGE (in fact I am enjoying the ride) and this "complaints" make it seem like some people have never watched Gundam before. I mean, c’mon folky folks! I hope you'll pardon me for finding it a little odd that AGE should be exempt from having its flaws or odd momen...

Other than the point about Emily, my post was about common complaints against the series on the net. Check some blogs, and the first thing you see are the three complaints I listed.

Re: The Official Gundam AGE Anime Thread Mk II
First off people defending the kiddy aspects. Not ONE of my complaints at all involve the kiddy aspects at all. My problems are with the pacing, and the fact that things happen and we don't see how or why, or are not explained. I know it is early, but again our criticisms are on the weeks episode on...
