The Greatest Thing about Having a Giant Backlog of the Old Classics when you get a taste for them is that you'll never run out of them because there are so many things from the World of Yesteryear. And the more people that go back to the Past reflects a Bigger Failure in Modern Entertainment. It's also a Sentiment that keeps rising in Every Generation.
This is fantastic. Also thanks for showing some clips of Macross Plus. Fun fact - Manga entertainment put a tagline on the back of the VHS for Macross Plus (which goes to show what an old otaku I am) that ‘MP was the Top Gun of Anime’ I do concur the same applies to 0083 More anime reviews please
0083 is fantastic. I love the "boots on the ground" perspective and energy it has, like you said, soldiers who have a mission to complete and just want to get home alive.
That's OVA for you. Bigger budget, more time, more frames of animation, more drawn details, better visuals. Worth waiting for another episode drops in local video store every few months.
This is actually the series that introduced me to Gundam its a badass series and highly recommended for people who haven't watched any Gundam series. I also LOL @ the timeline universe that's actually why I didn't go full throttle on Gundam to many universes with different stories that dont even go together kinda like jojos bizarre adventure.
I just watched 0083 and Mobile Suit Gundam: Zeta thanks to Gundam recommending them in one of his many rants during the stream. Both were bangers. Straight 10/10 shows. Keep the recommendations coming Papa Gundam!
Thank you Gundam. You singlehandedly turned me to both the Gundam series and the kits, which I love making. But something about the shows never entirely clicked with me because it always felt like it boiled down to some kid screaming and making bad decisions because Tomino's space magic told him he loved someone in an enemy mech. But Stardust Memory, ooh baby, that is some peak 90s anime.
Top Gun + Gundam?! You sold me on this series so hard that I immediately went on ebay and bought the DVD before the video ended. Please feel free to do as many recommendation videos like this as possible papa gundam
@@MrPGC137 Gary Stue Isekais with video game mechanics, 3DGI heavy shonen, and boring slice of life centered around high school. I miss shows like Black Lagoon that had grit, or classic cyberpunk from Cowboy Bebop and Bubblegum Crisis. I miss painted backgrounds and frame by frame animation. I miss competent writing and adult characters.
Gundam 0083 is fantastic. Gundam 0080 is basically, "Oh, you think war is an adventure? Here's a little taste of it. How do ya like it now?". 08th MS Team happens during the One-Year War - it's set on a Zeon-occupied Earth that somehow *isn't* deep in an impact winter after having a *freakin' colony* dropped onto it only a few months previously. It's a bit rushed in terms of story over its 12 episodes, but it's still a strong series. I agree, these three are peak Gundam for the OVA market. Thank you for coming to my slightly autistic Ted-talk 😅
Gundam rivals Star Wars in scope, so I'd say that franchise is a must watch for fans of it. And speaking of women in tv shows, even the original in 79 had some great competent female characters like Sayla, Mirai, Frau, Matilda, and even Kycilia
I remember watching this back in the early 2000s during the Adult Swim run. This and 8th MS sold me on Gundam after being mildly interested after seeing Wing a few years back. Especially after a certain national event canceled the original run of 0079 back on Toonami in 2001 and blue balled me the ending for years. It's not all bad since that led me to learning about Bittorrent when it was later invented like two years later and I grabbed every last fansub of UC I could back then.
Yup I always thought CN canceling msg was rather dumb considering that it made no difference on the outcome of that particular event. I even saw it on the news that morning while at school and yet an animated show is somehow worse than that.
It's wild that with things like War movies and Star Wars being so popular in the West, mecha anime aren't more popular. Gundam, Macross, VOTOMS, Legend of the Galactic Heroes, and Space Battleship Yamato being some major examples of "Star Wars" in Japanese media
Glad you mentioned one of my favorite Gundam title (08 MS), I was at the first episode of this series (0083) but haven't got the time to got back since then, I'll give it a swig later, maybe. Nice content as always.
Not mentioning Gundam Thunderbolt despite being OVA is such a crime bruh. It's practically War in The Pocket & 0083 of a more modern time 2015s. Mature theme, Adult MCs, the harsh reality of war, etc. Still waiting a new movie/season of Gundam Thunderbolt, especially when the manga at its final arc.
Gundam is one of those franchises I always wanted to get into but never knew where to start. I am looking forward to more anime recommendations from you, big Papa Gundam!
Look for a short gundam show and try to pick one that is simmlar to your taste in anime or just look for a suit you like the look of and hope there is a show link to that suit. Maybe even look up gunpla/gundam kits of suits or characters. Some suits are from video games. There is always look up some spoilers that make the whole show worth watch still this on is a risk as you might know what happens and feel it not worth watching. My first gundam was gundam fighters G which is 49 eps and nothing to do with any of the time lines of any of the gundam universe. You can't go wrong and give up and try another gundam anime or manga. I might not use the right words as I only got into 18 and still learning but thankfully a rookie can help (search up and there are places on the web that can say where to start maybe /m/). All the best on this quest on this cool world of mecha/giant robot shows/media. You will see a lot of Sieg Zeon!
Well, there's some continuity porn involved, like the Bad Guy Group from _Zeta_ is founded in the coda, but I certainly didn't have any trouble following it as my second _Gundam_ show (after _War in the Pocket,_ another excellent show that's also mostly stand-alone.)
As one might imagine from my pfp I am a Macross fan. But UC is the only time line for Gundam. Origin is amazing and I loved Hathaway. I will try Stardust Next.
I work with an old Japanese guy who is into Gundam. I watched the OG so I'd have something to talk about with him and it was OK. This sounds much better. I'm gonna check it out for sure
@@chrischriskidnicky6088 I would have liked it more as a kid, but as an adult, Amuro is a frustrating protagonist. I liked it, but I wasn't in love with it.
Of course you wait until I'm retired as top admin of Gundam MobileSuitposting to do this. I'm grateful nonetheless. GM Custom forever. 0083 saved the UC for me in the early Gundam golden era in the early 00s. 80, 83, and 08th are the holy trinity of UC. Happy to see you doing things you enjoy for a change! -Papa Burning, aka "Dadmin"
Sounds pretty cool honestly, I'll see if I can check it out! It always bothered me when Gundam shows have ... emotionally unstable children piloting mecha, so this is pretty much exactly what I'd like to see.
8th ms team was my first entry into mobile suit gundam. Actually its been the only one I watched...until now. Thanks for the content man, I'm gonna be checking this one out shortly!
Nothing will compare to the feeling of going to Jr High and watching Stardust Memories at night on Adult Swim thinking to yourself how'd you be able to explain to anyone around you what awesome glory was about to unfold in this OVA.
0083 is wonderful but my top spot is The 8th MS Team. The 8th had to me what was the best “average soldier/real war” feel. I 100% agree that’s what made these two stand out. The real icing on the cake is the fight with Norris Packard and his MS-07B-3 Gouf Custom.
Sorry gundam, but if you were paying attention, Kadokawa and Sony (both huge ESG pushers) are trying to urge and assist Blackrock to aggressively move into the Japanese anime/manga market. So its only a matter of time before Japan has been ESG'd. Unless there is some resistance to it. Judging from how western countries fell to ESG, there is little that can be done outside of boycotting pro ESG products.
Over 30 years ago, this sure brings back memories!!! I bought the video laserdiscs on this EPIC Gundam anime series back in the 1990s decade!!! A very expensive hobby for me back then, but it was worth it!!!
Yeah I did like that one too because War ruins the mind on both sides and that show kind of showed it I mean most early gundams showed you that yeah war is terrible.
Gundam 0083 is my favorite Gundam series to date. Watched in back in the early 90s with fansubs. So you talk the right talk for me here It’s A Gundam. I’m an OG having been hooked since 1980 on Gundam. Loved watching Zeta Gundam in just Japanese in 1985. My fandom was forged. UC is the best, but I also like OO, Seed, Wing, Iron Blooded Orphans continuities. 0083 was amazing as you said, gorgeous designs, also finally, New Type free story.
Another fun romp with gundam is the Thunderbolt ona's. Two MC's, each on opposite sides of the war, one trying to stand above the conflict but eventually becomes consumed by it, while the other embraces it.
I feel that Gundam is going to try to commit self wood chipper after Witch from Mercury. It seems to be the start of trying to get new/young into Gundam. And bringing in the wrong people like always. Iron Blooded Orphans should have been the direction.
I have been saying "Hollywood is Dead watch Anime instead" for a decade now it feels. Thank you. Finally I feel crazy I went from looking forward to a movie Any movie in theaters to Zero interest. I used hit a movie a week sometimes. Now... I saw godzilla minus one and the mario movie. I was sitting here trying to think of more and now im more depressed...
As much as I disagree with which gundam show is the best, I don't think I really gave Stardust the love it probably deserves. I thought it was alright, but nothing special. Of course, at that point I had just finished Unicorn, Hathaway, and Iron-Blooded-Orphans for the first times. The biggest thing I do remember is just how amazing the animation was. It was consistently smooth the whole way through. I have no idea how we don't get stuff like that anymore.
"Top gun, but with giant robots." Alright, you've sold me on the idea.

As one might imagine from my pfp I am a Macross fan. But UC is the only time line for Gundam. Origin is amazing and I loved Hathaway. I will try Stardust Next.
I work with an old Japanese guy who is into Gundam.
I watched the OG so I'd have something to talk about with him and it was OK.
This sounds much better. I'm gonna check it out for sure
IT WAS JUST OK?!?!?!
@@chrischriskidnicky6088 I would have liked it more as a kid, but as an adult, Amuro is a frustrating protagonist.
I liked it, but I wasn't in love with it.
@@testaklese It's ok. OG gundam is very dated and is largely respected for being the origin of the species.
Of course you wait until I'm retired as top admin of Gundam MobileSuitposting to do this.
I'm grateful nonetheless. GM Custom forever. 0083 saved the UC for me in the early Gundam golden era in the early 00s. 80, 83, and 08th are the holy trinity of UC.
Happy to see you doing things you enjoy for a change!

Sounds pretty cool honestly, I'll see if I can check it out! It always bothered me when Gundam shows have ... emotionally unstable children piloting mecha, so this is pretty much exactly what I'd like to see.
8th ms team was my first entry into mobile suit gundam. Actually its been the only one I watched...until now. Thanks for the content man, I'm gonna be checking this one out shortly!
The Winner does it's job to hype you up for the show, it's an amazing track!
for me it's "Cowboy Bebop", once a year I dust off my dvd and enjoy this epic story. oh, and I cry a little in church scene, this OST, man
And there is its, my 2nd fav Gundam series.
Nothing will compare to the feeling of going to Jr High and watching Stardust Memories at night on Adult Swim thinking to yourself how'd you be able to explain to anyone around you what awesome glory was about to unfold in this OVA.
0083 is wonderful but my top spot is The 8th MS Team. The 8th had to me what was the best “average soldier/real war” feel. I 100% agree that’s what made these two stand out. The real icing on the cake is the fight with Norris Packard and his MS-07B-3 Gouf Custom.
thanks for recommending your favorite series, G Gundam to me I will start watching asap...
Thanks for the recommendation!
Gundam unleashing his full 'tism for a topic he actually likes!? Now this, I can get behind.
Sorry gundam, but if you were paying attention, Kadokawa and Sony (both huge ESG pushers) are trying to urge and assist Blackrock to aggressively move into the Japanese anime/manga market. So its only a matter of time before Japan has been ESG'd. Unless there is some resistance to it. Judging from how western countries fell to ESG, there is little that can be done outside of boycotting pro ESG products.
The GP03 Stamen + Dendrobium Armor debut was super awesome dude
Stardust Memory has some nice osts
Forever and always my favorite Gundam series!
You are so Right Gundam... My "Urotsukidōji: Legend of the Overfiend" Anime VHS is treasured....
Sieg Zeon.

Do more of this gundam! short, sweet and hearing what makes gundam happy is very nice!
Any Gundam Series is better than most if not all Hollywood movies/tv shows. Especially in recent years
Gundam got nothing on peek Transformers.
@@n4ughty_knightMobile Suit Gundam and Zeta Gundam beg to differ
Gundam is wayy Better than transformers
@@Shadowthehedgehog833 HoW dArE yOu!?
@@n4ughty_knightGundam is literally adult war drama with deep themes while Transformers are for kids, sorry just truth
Over 30 years ago, this sure brings back memories!!! I bought the video laserdiscs on this EPIC Gundam anime series back in the 1990s decade!!!
A very expensive hobby for me back then, but it was worth it!!!
Bringing back memories. My first exposure to Gundam. I grew up watching battle of the planets, starblazers and Robotech.
8th MS Team was absolutely brilliant. I loved the grounded part of the war, and for some reason I was ignoring Stardust up to now, guess not any more.
Yeah I did like that one too because War ruins the mind on both sides and that show kind of showed it I mean most early gundams showed you that yeah war is terrible.
Gundam 0083 is so remarkable. EVERY time Kou sees Gato outside the Space Colony for one last showdown. I still get shivers!
We got Gundam talking about Gundam, now all we need is Fritanga talking about fried food
I just realize how gritty explosions are in older anime as compared to newer ones, that are just flashes of light most of the time.
I don't understand how a franchise like this has failed so hard in the West. The stories are well told, and it's serious tones are phenomenal...
It's the stigma of "Anime is for kids", especially when it comes to the older series.
Watch anime while its safe guys!! Unfortunatelly these people come to all media, and they will not stop until everything is ruined
0083 is my favorite Gundam series
Gundam 0083 is my favorite Gundam series to date. Watched in back in the early 90s with fansubs.
So you talk the right talk for me here It’s A Gundam.
I’m an OG having been hooked since 1980 on Gundam. Loved watching Zeta Gundam in just Japanese in 1985. My fandom was forged. UC is the best, but I also like OO, Seed, Wing, Iron Blooded Orphans continuities.
0083 was amazing as you said, gorgeous designs, also finally, New Type free story.
Patlabor the Mobile Police , Macross (Plus) , Battle Fairy Yukikaze even fukin Full Metal Panic. Just start at the beginning and have a great time.
Dont forget that banger of an opening, with the waling saxophone that just HITS and sets the tone of what youre about to see
I started watching gundam after your gunpla vid! 😀
I'm now on episode 12 of double zeta
Another fun romp with gundam is the Thunderbolt ona's. Two MC's, each on opposite sides of the war, one trying to stand above the conflict but eventually becomes consumed by it, while the other embraces it.
I feel that Gundam is going to try to commit self wood chipper after Witch from Mercury. It seems to be the start of trying to get new/young into Gundam. And bringing in the wrong people like always. Iron Blooded Orphans should have been the direction.
Gundam Wing introduced me to the franchise, Stardust Memory and The 8th MS Team made me a lifelong fan.
At least we get dragons dogma 2 tomorrow night at 9pm!
I have been saying "Hollywood is Dead watch Anime instead" for a decade now it feels. Thank you. Finally I feel crazy I went from looking forward to a movie Any movie in theaters to Zero interest. I used hit a movie a week sometimes. Now... I saw godzilla minus one and the mario movie. I was sitting here trying to think of more and now im more depressed...
Thanks for new video to watch.
As much as I disagree with which gundam show is the best, I don't think I really gave Stardust the love it probably deserves. I thought it was alright, but nothing special.
Of course, at that point I had just finished Unicorn, Hathaway, and Iron-Blooded-Orphans for the first times.
The biggest thing I do remember is just how amazing the animation was. It was consistently smooth the whole way through. I have no idea how we don't get stuff like that anymore.
8th MS Team is also great.
I like that show its gundams in like Vietnam.
