  • G Gundam is BEST GUNDAM and I mean that! It's got the fighting. It's got the mechs. And that's it! What else do you need??? Seriously though, Mobile Fighter G Gundam is my favorite in the Gundam franchise. Let me show you why.

    Mobile Fighter G Gundam is the best. It's got all the good fighting, the Shining Gundam is the coolest gundam until it gets upgraded to the Burning Gundam which is even more amazing! It's considered the dark horse of the Gundam franchise, but that's purely because it goes off the playbook in terms of political plotlines. G Gundam isn't about politics, its about Gundams doing the fighting and doing it well. And sometimes, or even most of the time, when I'm sitting down to watch Gundam, I'm there because I want to see some giant humanoid mechs battle it out. And that's what G Gundam is all about.

    G Gundam is a direct reference to kung fu movies especially stories written by the legendary Jin Yong. Master Asia's name, Tohou Fuhai is straight up the most famous and powerful antagonist in Jin Yong's "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer". Shining and God Finger is a reference to the "Buddha's Palm" series of techniques, Dragon Gundam is a reference to the "18 Palms of the Soaring Dragon", even the ultimate technique Sekiha Tenkyoken is named after the protagonist of "Ode to Gallantry". So yea a lot of the show goes over people's heads if they don't know the references.

    G Gundam was my first Gundam and it kind of made the others hard to watch. It's a fun watch. It's almost the complete antithesis to something like Evangelion, which I also love. I usually explain it like this, standard Gundam is a political war drama, the focus is on the grand scale of the events. G Gundam is an action show, the focus is on the individual characters and their trials and growth. That's why the characters in G are so much more memorable and fleshed out.

    Favorite moment is at the end when Domon fights Master Asia and goes to punch him. Master Asia thinks he reads it and dodges only to be surprised that Domon lands the punch. So epic. Such an underrated series. Its corny and cheesy and really dumb in some parts but it still has its charm and those awesome moments.
    Also loved how it had a realistic control system. In all the other Gundam series they somehow do all these ninja moves and acrobatics with just joysticks and pedals...

    I recently re-watched G Gundam again, the first time since I originally saw it on toonami back in the day and let me tell you, its charm and watchability runs deep, despite some of the ridiculous and over the top elements.

    During an interview at Georgia State University in 2002 the series director Yasuhiro Imagawa talked about how much he hated the designs for the nations' Gundams. He purposely made ridiculously complex designs as the series went on to spite the sponsors that came up with the original suite of stereotypical designs. Also a lot of staff backed out of the project since they didn't want to abandon the soul of Gundam for a cash grab.
    You make an assertion that the staff had creative freedom, but they didn't. They had Bandai telling them to make a shounen action show using a bunch of tasteless stereotypes as monster of the week fluff because the franchise was bleeding money after the back to back under performance of F91 and Victory.

      @@thomasffrench3639 While they did manage to make one of the best entries in the franchise, they, the general staff, had to be convinced that it was worth it. You're missing the point, if someone claims that G's staff had creative freedom is answer is a resounding, "they didn't." If they didn't frame the narrative the way they did, with a focus on honorable combat sports and the dreams of fighters contending with capital turning it into blood sport, G wouldn't have been very good. Having one option for telling a good story isn't exactly what I would call creative freedom. Plus, a bunch of the people that worked on G, such as character designer Hiroshi Osaka and now legendary key animator Yutaka Nakamura, still ended up leaving Sunrise in the late 90s to form Bones due to a lack of creative freedom.

      @GuiltlessGear 8 месяцев назад +2

      This was a really fascinating lecture, and thank you for sharing it. this may be an old comment, but its rare that we get to see a creative get this specific and share this many details, especially from overseas.
      However, I do think it's worth acknowledging what the text goes on to say:
      "The designs he thought terrible, especially the "samurai" Gundam, looked incredible as models. The older generation of animators and directors had created "a box" for themselves in seeing Gundam as only a military license. On the other hand, many young kids were now being introduced to the world of Gundam through G Gundam. From this, Imagawa-san learned that anime creation was not always a competition between sponsors and creators. In anime, there was room for both groups to work together."
      It's sad to think then, that every installment in the franchise since has refused to stray too far from this "box". Except, ironically, for the ones tomino himself helmed; Turn A Gundam especially.
      That said, i'd love to see the original designs imagawa made for G Gundam.

After all, they're battling for control and each nation seems insanely self-serving and proud. This is absolutely the BEST Gundam, it's weird that G Gundam seems swept under the rug by Bandai.
