What I love is that Turn A is one of the single most powerful and deadly mobile suits in the whole franchise, yet Loran has the lowest kill count of all Gundam pilots by far.
I’ve always found that funny, but also weirdly wholesome. Turn A is moonlight butterfly from what I’ve looked up, is supposed to be able to spread across our entire solar system, yet Loran used it as a washing machine. It’s such a brilliant and beautiful way to handle this reality.
Best moment in Turn A for me:
earthlings finally went to space and the crew got homesick and frightened, so they tried to eat and drink their fears away. They got so drunk, one guy had came up with a brilliant idea. He donned his space suit, jumped into a wine barrel and got other people seal the barrel and throw him overboard towards earth. Loran was like 'is this even happening?' and had to deploy to save his stupid ass.
THERE ARE NO BRAKES ON THE GUNDAM HYPE TRAIN!
Jesus christ even you're here.
Lol
Turn A is powered by a Discontinuous Hyperoscillation Gauge Collapsing Pile
Translation= Turn A is powered by a freaking black hole!
Thanks to my good friends @SICnanigans and @fullOanime for help with the new Art Assets and Motion graphics!
Hope you all like them :)
They're really CLASSY
+Glass Reflection A remarkable opening. Love the new style and design of the video. Hope to see more of this XD
You could call them... Frosty
I really like the new assets. Well done to those guys. Too bad Gundam makes me sleepy, but oh well.
+Glass Reflection It really did give the review a fresh appearance. Looking forward to further reviews with this template.
P.S. Is it just me, or was your acting in this review a tad more energetic and enthusiastic than your previous reviews?
This makes me happy, Turn A truly can be seen as the final chapter in the Gundam Franchise, subjectively tho.
After learning of the Dark History and knowing that humanity will always drive itself to destruction, the end is bitter sweet, the ending to end all endings. Will humanity know peace? Evidence shows otherwise, but the hope for it is still there.
Zeta Rise For the record, G gundam series is doing well to preserve peace by doing gundam fights to decide who to rule for the next 4 years. Also it is probably the closest timeline to Turn A series. I wonder what happened between it that made the Turn A destroy the earth.
Laguna... Look up "Devil Gundam Junior," the main purpose of the Devil Gundam, and compare that to the "Turn-X," and it's Moonlight Butterfly...
A Gundam series review from Glass Reflection, this is a blessing
He did review Wing years ago
He did wing
Pfft but who cares about Wing? lol kidding. I don't but I know a lot of Americans love wing.
I... I like G Gundam. Un-ironically. I genuinely enjoyed it.
Same. :D
Master Asiaaaa
Same dude, it's so fucking dumb, but it's the best kind of dumb
Nah. Dat shit too dumb for me.
Me too, Shining Gundam is my favorite Gundam of all.
I'm that guy that will genuinely point fans of anime, especially DBZ, to G Gundam as a jumping point. I adore G Gundam for all of it's absurdity.
And if they like serious anime I will point them to 8th MS Team.
+Dizzy Tackson Build Fighters is worth a rewatch if you know the other series in and out. It is a HEAVEN in terms of references, throwbacks and cameos.
+Mark LaFrancis 8th MS Team is my go-to starting point for gundam because it's easy to understand and mostly good. Gundam series tend to historically be "good, but flawed," but MS Team never makes mistakes which break immersion or become preachy. G Gundam is...for special people. If you liked Bleach or DBZ, you will probably love G Gundam, but when you hit Naruto I have to switch over to MS Team.
+Mark LaFrancis G Gundam is honestly one of the best-written Gundam series in the franchise. It's silly and absurd, but there's a lot of heart in it and its characters and arcs are pretty solid. I'd certainly recommend it over most other Gundam series, especially most of the newer ones.
ftlengineer 08th MS team has shitty tacked on romance. In comparison the the original its campy.
How can you say that Turn A looks dated? The animation and art style is gorgeous. Its all before digital animation and it’s one of the peak hand drawn anime
Yeah I thought he was being petty about that
@@Crimsonlupus it’s like saying that Hunter x Hunter 2011 looks dated.
I don’t really have a whole lot of respect for ppls opinion on disliking old animation. If we are talking UC 0079 ok I can get that, although it be stupid to turn away from the show because of that. But Turn A is beautifully and it’s dated animation adds a certain simplistic charm to the experience.
Because like most Western anime tuber, he's a retard
To be fair there are two (sometimes three) types of Gundam Shows and it really depends on whether you like all out robot fighting on a large scale or personal level:
All Out War - Mobile Suit Gundam 0079, 8th MS Team, Gundam 0083, Gundam Seed and Gundam AGE.
and
Group of Young Men Vs The World - Gundam Wing, Gundam 00, Iron Blooded Orphans
Don't you mean group of terrorists vs the world? Because that's what they are in those shows....
Wing and G are classics, but 0079 is a Milestone in Anime
it's quite hard to watch in modern standard
@@oldcowbb yes i would say that Versailles no Bara aged much better
What's your opinion of 08th Mobile Suit team?
@theFareulookinat if you were to recommend a series that's has intense fighting a a good story what would you recommend?
@@oldcowbb not as hard as Wing
turn A gundam was my first ever gundam series. My dad got it for me as a child and I've always had an attachment to how it looks, especially later on when I was exposed to more gundam series, turn A's design stuck with me till this day.
A war between more advanced people from space and the less technologically advanced people from earth?
And space people follow a princess and see themselves as superior?
And there's a character that is torn between the two sides?
And it all goes to shit when they go into space?
This movie is Aldnoah.Zero's cheat sheet
LOL I thought the same but this show seems to handle everything a lot better.
Its a TV series and a few movies.
I mean, we all knew that show was an unoriginal shit
+EontheDemon Loran isn't a gary stu and there's no romance bullshit that influence the plot massively
+EontheDemon "This movie is Aldnoah.Zero's cheat sheet"
No.. Aldnoah.Zero is cheat sheet of this one, not the other way around. Also Turn A is much better in almost everything.
b..but G gundam is the best ever. You know who told me that? KYOJIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!
People in my anime group sometimes call Turn A Gundam, "Aldnoah Zero: The Good Version". So I've been curious to watch it at some point. Glad this got a review.
Hah, so true.
Liking the new graphics.
same
Oh my Jyushimatsu
They look really good
About time you made a Gundam review.
He made a Wing review.
+Nikola Dedic about time that he made a Gundam review
+sunchips69 He made a Gundam Wing review.
This show need more love.
+Hans Silvyan True
From mecha fans, no. Do regular anime fans completely ignore it, yes.
+Hans Silvyan I gave it love
12:55 dude you can't say that turn a was reusing frames "because it's dated" when seed, which came after and was all digitized, did the same 45x times
This really is a sweet surprise! Turn-A is one of my favourite Gundams! Thanks for reviewing this Arkada, I do hope more people get into the Gundam series 'cause of this.
I do agree with you on the fact that to appreciate Turn-A more, people should at least check out the other Gundam series first. Turn-A's ending was brilliant and it still haunts me to this day, really bittersweet and one of the endings that will join the ranks of Zeta and Victory Gundam.
Definitely the best Gundam OST, the tracks Moon and Moon's Cocoon has so much emotion to it that I feel so many emotions and tear up when I hear it. It takes me back to Loran's whole journey up to the end. Kanno Yoko, bless her she's a gift to humanity.
Hope you do more reviews for the other Gundam series too, maybe others are looking for more guides as to which Gundam series should they check out first. I'm not really a fan of the mecha genre, but the characters in the Gundam series (and Macross) are the ones that keep me on watching and staying with the bonus of ingenious moments that are really good that you can never find out of that genre.
More power to you! Thanks for staying frosty!
Call me stupid, but I liked this video solely because of the new channel visuals. This channel has grown and it makes me happy. Well done Arkada :)
Ore wa... Ore wa Gundam da!!!
(I'll get shot for saying this)
BTW... great video... one of my favorite Gundam series ^^U
We are Celestial Being!
Hahahaha!!!!!
I hated this "catch-phrase" so much... At least, the starting point and the world behind the series were great.
"At least show some gratitude. After all, it was because of me that you were able to attain those powers you have, SETSUNA F. SEIEI."
turn a is the scar upon which SEED was (luckily) able to hide and allow the Gundam name to be redeemed. All hail deity Kira Yamato.
Glass Refraction is all I could think about. The art assets are really good, I was just jarringly surprised when I saw new art in my subbox.
lol. me too
As a dude that started watching anime only a couple years ago, 00 and Iron Blooded Orphans are the easiest introductions IMO as they are outside of the UC timeline. Unicorn is also pretty easy to understand with only basic UC timeline knowledge.
Holy shit, I'm finally that one guy that they always talk about! The first Gundam I saw was G Gundam, and I remember it fondly to this day
Although, it was so long a go, and I was a kid, so I don't even really remember anything about the plot or characters, just that the gundams were piloted in a really different way from the rest of the Gundam shows.
g gundam a god damn classic
noah gundy ehhhh not really plus dub hasn't aged well...
G Gundam is THE best of all Gundams the dub still holds today, and anyone who says otherwise is clearly working with KYOJI!
Qwyatt Storm Haha i love G Gundam, but Gundam X would still be my favourite 90s Gundam haha.
I've seen about half of the many Gundams series and oav/ova and X is one that I have yet to see that I am really looking forward to seeing just waiting for the dub. I'm a dub guy what can I say.
Turn A piloted by Cehack Is GOD
My reaction to the new intro: "Classy as Fuck!"
+Zetsu Edit: New format as a whole : "Nice!"
Can I just say that watching you and your channel grow over the years has been a massive pleasure for me? Keep being awesome Tristan. :)
Want to know what held up Gundam Wing through the second half of the series once Relena started preaching her absolute pacifism ideals? Believe it or not, it was Dorothy Catalonia. Yes, the "War Monger" girl with the pincer shaped eyebrows who everyone hates but I myself actually love and is my favorite character in the Gundam Wing series.
Allow me to explain: Dorothy serves as the perfect contrast to Relena when it comes to ideals. The reason why she's a "war monger" is because she understands war better than anyone else aside from Zechs and Trieze. She also recognizes that human conflict will always exist no matter what age we live in or how much we want peace.
Gundam Wing may have had it's own fair share of flaws when it comes to its writing but if there's one thing that I applaud the writers the most for it's putting in Dorothy Catalonia. Had they not put her into the series after the explosive first half, I really do think that the series would just fallen apart once Relena started preaching her ridiculous ideals.
And you know what? Relena might have become the character Dianna was in this series had it not been for the bullshit ending Endless Waltz had.
First of all G Gundam IS fucking awesome, and that's not "for the lulz".
Joe Stronger ehhh when you look g gundam comapred to most gundam series yeah g gundam's the joke....
Wasn't it supposed to be a joke/parody though? I mean I somehow dont think that they thought "martial arts tournament for control of the earth with giant robots" was gonna be a toure-de-force. Windmill Gundam is a pretty good example
the25thprime It's not a parody it is just the only time Gundam decided to say screw realism and go full super robot instead of the traditional realistic Mecha all previous Gundams were hell G Started the idea of alternative takes of Gundam outside the UC and it was after the first 3 those being G, Wing, and X that Turn A came about and those along with the UC being the dark history was the creator of Gundam himself letting those who enjoyed those 3 spin offs and the fan boys of the UC that he feels that all are still Gundam and that he gives his blessing to future generations interpretations of his creation. Granted there are probably a few take backs on this -_- (seed destiny and G Savior but hey every long runing franchise has it's ups and downs).
G Gundam is goofy as fuck but it's still an incredible series
The joke, in a positive manner I'd say.
It's absurd as hell and that's why it's so fun to watch, especially the bits are handled quite well.
If you want to watch gundam get some courage and start either with 0079 or the 0079 movies because it's the first...
This. I watched Seed in Middle School, then 00 in High School, Turn A last year, then finally manned up and started the UC last month. It's incredible how 0079 blows everything else I watched out of the water. My brother just got the Zeta blu ray, and I can't wait to start it
+Erk1234567
And Zeta is practically best classic series.. so enjoy.
I'll admit that I'm a fan of the gundam wing series, mainly because the gundam designs of the anime are my favorite gundam designs, but when my friend was wanting to get into the gundam series I recommended for him to watch 0079 first, instead, he watched gundam 00 first. Lol.
judeskater93 MSG00 isn't a bad start, I'll give it credit for being pretty clever plot-wise (overall that is).
My first was Unicorn, and it drugged me into the franchise
hugo simão That’s not how you spell Stardust Memory.
Turn A is my second favorite Gundam show. It was very nice to see you review a Gundam show once again.
"for the lulz usually" What? G Gundam is undeniably the best AU Gundam show. Best MC, best character development, best romance, good fights, good music, good villains, and one of the best payoff final battles.
I think it goes without saying, but thank you Tristan for working so hard on your RUclips channel with keeping a regular schedule and aiming for better content.
I'm so waiting for your Gundam 00 review...even if it will take many many more years. It's my favourite Gundam show out of so many reasons and it sounds you like it yourself. ^^
Same, I've been waiting as well lol
You know as an anime fan I don't always agree with your reviews (I do in this instance) but I just wanted to say you do great videos. It's nice to see someone discuss anime and have it be more than "it's a cartoon!"
Turn A is actually my favorite undam both the series and mobile suit.
Dude, Fuckin' watch it already! Eureka 7 is my #1 favorite and most recommended anime.
I only got into Gundam recently, 08th MS Team was amazing, and I am enjoying Iron Blooded Orphans so far.
00 also tried to be unique and it was mostly successful for the first season. Sadly they went back to being generic with S2 and pulled another UNDERSTANDING ending.
omg, I am that one guy whose favorite Gundam series is G Gundam, and would recommend it (but not for the lolz D: )
+gryphoncompanion G-Gundam is what you watch between Universal-Century parts to get your mood back up.
This is the most underated Gundam series for many people ; but for me this is one of best storytelling ever because it seems horrific the past have mankind hi-tech ; and the future (Correct Century) reset all tech to dust remind me of Stone Age...and the MC is good...Not fight for his race (Moonrace) but fight for peace of Earth and Moon...
Im only attempting to get into the series now at 23. While I thought the dated animation of 0079 would put me off it, by episode 3 I was hooked, im currently on episode 20ish and loving it, if you can get your hands on a high quality version of the show I'd highly reccomend it. If your a continuity freak like me just start at the beginning. The dated animation lends itself well to the at times disappointing dub and becomes part of it's charm to me as opposed to holding it back.
I lost it at "cockpit" OHGOD that joke was brilliant, right up my alley. Turn A actually looks pretty interesting, only ever saw Wing and I think Seed, back in the day. Putting it on the need to watch list.
Oh, and the Art Assets + Motion graphics are cool!
have you done a review on Eureka Seven yet? it's a pretty notable series in the mecha genre
or evangelion
+David Hutchinson He considers NGE as one of the 5 animes you must see before you die.
+David Hutchinson yes he did review it
I tried watching it on Netflix and honestly? I couldn't stand it and only got about 5 episodes in. It is so bad.
+David Hutchinson he did on the two movies that ended the original tv show.
Bwahaha.. I started with Seed xD Didn't know where to start from and everyone was giving me mixed opinions so I just thought, 'Screw this, Imma start with either Seed or Wing'. Have come a long way since then! Sadly I'm still surrounded by people who've seen nothing other than the 00s.
This is one series I haven't seen yet though. Thanks a lot for the review. Really helpful.
Yup. The first series I think of when I hear 'mecha' is definitely Gundam. There totally isn't any other anime I think of first...
+Lelouch Vi Britannia (Zero) I think of several at the same time usually, but you reminded me of Code Geass XD Idk why I don't think of it first, because its definitely the second best mecha show I've seen. I always think of Gurren Lagann and Evangelion alongside Gundam, although I've only seen Lagann out of those 3
Sterling Muse Don't take me seriously, I'm doing it for comedic effect.
+Lelouch Vi Britannia (Zero) I know XD I was just surprised I hadn't thought of Code Geass
Sterling Muse K
JIBUN WO!
I don't even like anime. Rather, I don't watch anime as intensively as my friends.
I just like Arkada's way of articulating and displaying information. I am legitimately learning how to type essays and English papers from this guy.
I really like the Turn-A's design, so many mecha tend to be over-designed. They put some many...'things' on the machine it looks like you could never handle it properly in a battle. Turn-A has a good balance, its sleek and yet powerful. It's also mentioned in the show that it is supposed to be modular, that it is supposed to carry different weapons for different situations.
I still don't get the "where to start" question, just man up and start from the beggining, whatching something from 1979 is not gonna hurt you
Facku Ikari dude no one is going to watch that shit because we've become so spoiled! In my opinion start with wing, move on with turn, next is Seed, move to 00 which is the best one, get to Unicorn and finally your allowed to watch Iron Blooded Orphans. DONE. Plus with all these Gundam series to watch your not going to have time to watch other anime. So screw the old ones in the 1980's, no one is going to waste their time to watch over 30 to 40 episodes of old crappy animation and generic writing and standard villians.
@@ramonlrey99com Dude, the UC is one of the best written timelines in gundam for a reason.... Well expect for gundam reconguista in g
@@ramonlrey99com lol noob
and now in 2016 we would recommend Iron Blooded Orphans, that show is definitely one of the better Gundam series.
Oooooh, I like the new opening.
Edit: Actually really liking the new production stuff in there as well.
The first two episodes of turn a gundam is one of the most solid openings to any gundam I have seen once loran had settled. With the ending of ep 1 being iconic, and ep 2 being an amazing sense of fear
*AHEM*
What was that about "that one guy?" I assure you, my friend, there is no irony in my love for G Gundam.
I got this series out of a blind box a while back, I'd never seen a gundam series prior to this so I wasn't sure about whether I should watch it.
Glad this convinced me to give it a go, as I most certainly wasn't dissapointed.
I grew up on wing but 00 was pretty dope
Me 2😁🤷🏾♀️
The new presentation tweaks you've made are slick. I like it. Keep up the good work man.
Wait... You haven't watched Eureka 7 yet? That's really surprising...
Love the new GR look awesome. Hope your channel grows to be huge. Great job 😊
but G gundam is good.....
The new graphical design is really impressive. Be sure to tell Sooin and Ken they did a great job. Your overall style once again outdoes itself.
I'm positive... Arcada has acquired the abilities to review Gundam... WITH THE HELP OF KYOJI!!!!! (cue epic ass music)
I do like this new format, it's very clean and the Spoiler Room is a good idea
All in all I think I'll continue to watch your videos
I would start with UC timeline as every other timeline has some similarities with the OG gundam shows. 08th MS team FTW.
Absolutely love the review. You are the only person i can rely on when it comes to recommendations on anime.
I think you are the most professional anime reviewer on youtube, bringing fair arguments to the table, and showing a clear understanding of a story structure, or a flowing narrative, with characters that actually have development, screen time and are not a cliché. I have seen how your style changed over the years from your first to your last review. You have improved so much since then, while maintaining a certain style. Keep up the good work!
While Turn A did have some problems, I really enjoy it! I don't know if it's one of my favorite Gundam series, but I think it's pretty good!
As far as your beginning speech about which Gundam series to recommend to new watchers, I would always recommend starting from the original Mobile Suit Gundam, and following the UC narrative all the way to the present with Unicorn. Although if the watcher wanted something a bit newer, I would say to jump right into Iron Blooded Orphans, because it was pretty damn great! The only series I wouldn't recommend is Wing, and SeeD Destiny(although SeeD itself is fine). But that's just my opinion, since I watched G and Wing first, but I only really got into Gundam through model kits and video games. And then for a brief period of time, Toonami aired the original series, and I was hooked...
Also, Turn A's theme song is one of the most kickass Gundam themes ever made!
+cloudstrife4534 hey i agree he should have reviewed the UC series whuch is the the best gundam timline then its the 00 timeline
I'd recommend Thunderbolt for the adult crowd
I genuienly and honestly believe that G Gundam is hands down the best Gundam series out of all the Gundams wether it be Univesal Century or Alternate Century. The over the topness of the show is what makes it so great it takes what makes Gundam great and Super Robots great and pulls it together in one series perfectly. The Mech designs are unique and for the most part very cool and memorable the main protagonist and antagonist have a great story because there famil as well as the love story that builds to a great climax at the end. And then you have the rest of the shuffle alliance. All of this wraps up into a nice 50 episode package with no filler and just more action and great lines that people still quote to this day.
Jojo review when?
Not now, get over it
+KidSnivy69 Okey
+X3RoX™ My guess is the same as the Gintama review when he watches all seasons of it, so maybe this year's Review Week of Awesome
+Anime Double Feature He can just review the first season, each part is pretty self-contained.
+Tarkus That's true but you have to admit that scoring Bakemonogatari alone compared to Monogatari as a whole is almost like night and day
I loved the opening speech you had about Gundam and it's fan base. Also, I've never clicked a notification so fast.
Personally, I would recommend the original 1979 series first, not only because it sets the stage for what would be seen in practically every other Gundam series, but also because I feel like it explains the basic history the best out of all the Gundam series. However, I might be a bit biased, considering that was the first Gundam show my dad showed me while I was still in diapers, but yeah XD
I'm that one guy who recommends G Gundam apparently...
hey arcada, what would you say is your opinion on the build fighter gundam series? for me it is essentially the only gundam series ive watched because it wasnt as corny or bizarre as other examples ive seen. ive tried to watch others like G no reconquista and... origins i believe was the title, but the aforementioned... issues turned me off more than the pacing or characters did
+Zeromega159 well, i'm not arkada, but if you enjoyed build fighters, then you should definitely give the other shows a watch, even if you have to force yourself through some of them. build fighter was essentially a love letter to the fans, and with every new series i watched, i uncovered even more to enjoy in it.
will you please review g gundam?
I really love how Arkada keeps refining his videos more and more. I'm loving the new credits format and the presentation of pros/cons and recommendations :)
I'm really digging the new format
Whoa whoa, I am not a poor soul here Ark. SEED was one of my very first animes and honestly the only one that interested me after taking a peak at the Gundam niche as a whole. Yes the story is a little wobbly and the angst a bit high school, but these are teenagers fighting a war in space, what more can you expect?
Iron-blooded orphans was a good mecha to dip your toes in for mecha anime genre.
ARKADA YOU NEED TO WATCH EUREKA SEVEN PLEASE!!!
Huh, I really didn't like it when I watched it like 5 years ago. It felt really boring and I just didn't care so I didn't finish it. Maybe I'll give it another chance tho
+Caleb Thompson While i did finish it, i have to say: About 30 episodes are just useless...
And the ending is... well, not very satisfying for that incredibly long build-up... Watch the movie instead
eureka 7 was my favorite anime for a long time
What was the sequel? Ao? That was kinda shitty.
+MemoryNK I feel asleep watching that show, many times.
I’ve always found 08th MS Team a good jumping in point for new fans, if not 0083 Stardust Memory as they’re beautifully done, short enough to dip your foot in the mecha pool, and entertaining enough you want to see more.
I am a Gundam wing kid but I prefer 00.
+TheAtheistPaladinWing was pretty good but if you can find After War Gundam X and Gundam 0083 I'd recommend those series too
+geddyleefan actually speaking of x its getting released in the west in june or july
+TheAtheistPaladin Gundam 00 is excellent. It's the only one I've seen but I totally enjoyed it and thought it was quite good.
+TheAtheistPaladin I grew up with Wing and was loving it to death. Yet, after I grew up and can judge things more objectively after rewatching it, Wing is pretty crappy when it comes to writing & execution (it's on the level of Transformers G-1 & G.I. Joe) while other childhood show like Cowboy Bebop becomes better the more I rewatch it. I'd say SEED is better than Wing when it comes to writing and execution (they're about on par when it comes to the huge amount of reused animation & stock footage though). That said, I really dislike Destiny in general.
I look forward to future Gundam reviews. You always provide quality content Arkada.
where is the fucking rakugo
he needs to review that hidden gem
in le trash
I think he mentioned saying he'll review it but there's other anime he wants to review first, so not in a while
I always recommend The 7th MS Team as an entry point to Gundam. Keeps things relatively simple, provides all the building blocks of what Gundam is, but most importantly it shoots everything from the grunts point of view. The main protagonist isn't and angsty preteen genius who must suck it up to save the world, he's just a soldier who is pretty good at piloting a mech. Add in the rest of his squad and support staff and their interactions and you get one hell of an entertaining mecha anime.
Wait, you haven't watched Eureka 7 yet? Get on that, man!
1:32 I believe I watch it before but not very much. The only thing I remember about Gundam SEED is the climatic finale.
At the time, I was not interested in mecha anime genre.
8th MS team or 0080 arkada pleaseDo it for quattro
I liked Turn A a lot, I love the mecha design (turn A is muy favorite gundam model) and I think the animation isnt great for the most part but is more enjoyable than most actual anime. About the ost, I dont find it anything special, but i love the opening songs. Btw I like Sochie.
Hey GR, what are your thoughts on Zoids, one of my favourite mecha animes but it doesn't seem to get much love... Is there are reason for this?
+TheNewboy65 Because Gundam exists and humanoid mechas kick ass
1:40 - You're doing the same thing they would do. Personally, I'd say UC Gundam, but where to start there can be a difficult question to answer because of the fact that there are so many series', OVAs, specials and movies in it and knowing where you SHOULD start for context is just as important as knowing what's the most accessible.
that cockpit is a big weak-point for more reasons that one.....
The angle of the camera in relation to the alignment of the posters IS KILLING ME!!!
Just one word: BORJARNON!
All the gundams are pretty good. when I started watching if people would’ve told me to go and watch the 80s set of Gundams maybe in between it would make more sense to me because there’s some key elements that ties into the ones that started coming to the generations when I was born in the 90s and then now I’m watching unicorn and Ironblood orphan which I have to say was really good.
23:12 nu-clear. not nu-ku-lar :c
Yay! Exceptionally well made review of the most original and may be most satisfying Gindam series!
I can only applause to you, sir and am almost agreed.
Except the SPOILERS:
The thins, I was very disappointed is lack of answers about Khiel/Dianna relations and origin.
They are a twins or clones or anything else but ZERO answers were given.
As for Reinford, from the very beginning till the end he was concerned only about his own supremacy no matter how, so no any questions, why he had chosen dark path of force.
The real problem is Moon ark itself and relation to Dark Ages.
On this point, whole show had all the chances to evolve and become something really Big and Great, that unifies al the previous Gundam titles and elevate it to next level.
But no!
No any proper climax.
No any catharsis.
And pity last 5 series of rushed action for no reason.
Why?
WHY?!
They had all the cards and were coming through great build-up to something grandiose.
But instead, turned backwards and flushed away all the potential...
IRON BLOOD ORPHAN
+superharute Seems that your opinion isn't that common if the show gets ratings like 7.96/10 and 4.04/5
superharute one of the best au universe scenes in a while and my personal favor the fights are way more interesting simply because beam weapons are trash in their universe and fights usually end up being up close affairs which is way more interesting than beam sniping from miles away

HI big fan of your channel, like the new intro and many other video you have done. I look forward to more videos.
P.S. I hope you will Review the Irregular at Magic High School? Thank's for reading and good luck.
The design of the Turn A had bothered me the minute I learned of its existence. I despised it. And then, G-Self came to pass. The Turn A is okay now.
I felt the same way. Turn A and Turn X are now 2 of my favorite designs now. O.o
Goodness gracious, what have I just stumbled upon?
A respectable, enthusiastic otaku who talks more with his hands then his voice and reviews anime with a educated, unbiased perspective, all the while dressed as Char Aznable?
Enjoy the new subscription, my friend.
