I was gonna say try Daisuki but it seems they only have RE:0096, SEED, Wing, Origin and IBO.

Hey fellow Gundam lovers. I've been a big fan of various series for awhile and noticed recently that MS Gundam V is being released on Blu-ray. I've never seen the series but I understand that it still takes place in the UC timeline, so I'm curious to see if its any good.

Just wanted to check in with GAF and see if the series is worth my time & money?

One of my favorite series, it is WELL worth the investment. Fantastic characters, fantastic concept, fantastic design. It has a lot of flaws but they are more than made up for

GundamGAF doesn't like it, but GundamGAF is perpetually making excuses for SEED, so fuck em.
j/k but SEED is fucking god awful

People just mad cause we pray at the church of Usoism, he's full of innocence, but not mercy. Seed's nothing more than a retelling of 0079 with shittier art direction.

Damn! I don't get paid till the 4th :/. Try not cry.. Crys a lot

Just an FYI, HobbyLink Japan doesn't charge for pre-orders until the item comes into stock... which in the case of that Macross won't be until December! So plenty of time to save. Pre-orders will likely go quick!

Mind blown..! I owe you a solid. Thank you
 
I think I love Round Vernian VIFAM for the same reason I initially loved Gundam Seed, the kids being able to actively take part in manning the ship (Kira's friends on Archangel in the first episode, Civilian kids in VIFAM). Its so good seeing in times of crisis kids giving great responsibility.

Woah now.

Nor all the art is worse.

Flay and Lacs look better then anything in 0079 :)

Seriouslt though I lIke Strike/Freedom more then RX OG but the Katoki/OYW looks a million times better then anything on SEED as far as Mechanics goes. Though I do have a huge soft spot for Blitz.

How are Flay and Lacus better looking than Kycillia?

To me?

For sure. I legit love Lacus and Flay's designs.

I feel the same way about the Wing females and OO Females which I Know many find to be nonsense as well.

Hell to me Hilda from Cross Ang is the best designed Female in Mecha that Bandai has ever produced.

Wing females are the best. They actually have probably the most realistic designs minus Dorothy and her big ass eyebrows but I love her regardless. Crazy ass Hilda is fine, still need to finish Cross Ange. I like her design, Big Boss lady and the woman that thinks she's Sailor Moon the most. Regarding 00 Kati's actually cute, been a long ass while since I've seen 00 though.

I can't wait for you to finish Cross.

Hearing your thoughts on Saila will be amazing.

No love for Lady Une, I just rewatched episode 4 or was it 5 and laughed when she threw the bomb Relena gave her lol.Great throw.

I actually don't have much of a problem with Lady Une even with what she eventually becomes. Love her design and she's probably the best fucking shot in the Gundam franchise. I actually wish she was in the show more.

Literally everything in SEED is worse. Bland designs, sameface, Bad CG, Ookawaras worst designs. Only thing redeeming SEED is its music.

Just watched gundam origins dawn of the rebellion. Char is such a deadly person.

I seriously think we are getting gundam :0079 remade.

We will just have to agree to disagree.

I can't really understand the love afair for 0079, honestly I think it's barely better then mediocre.

MSG has aged poorly in some ways, but I think the movies are still a pretty good watch.

Seed is just okay to me. Could never get into it, but I'm one of those annoying UC guys tbh.

I had better suit designs!

LOL.

Don't get me wrong I love some aspects of UC.

I just think 0079's Designs are crap and the art ugly.

ZZ, Unicorn, Banshee, Delta, and FA RX? All much better then anything carrying the SEED Name.

Believe me Im in no way a fangirl of SEED (though I will cut a bitch if they talk shit on the music). I know this is going to be probably the most petty complaint ever but my dislike of 0079 for suits really comes down to the mecha all having flat feet.

To me a Gundam's legs are made and broken by the heel and it is really hard for a Gundam to win me over when they have crappy shoes.
 
So I finally got Extreme VS Force on my PSTV. I'm only a few hours in (Not even finished with Act 1), haven't done much.

Also note, I haven't played a VS game since Federation vs Zeon and Gundam vs Zeta Gundam, so I suck.

-So far I've unlocked G-Self, God, Ez8, Zakus and shit.
-G-Self OP plz nerf. Also how the hell do you trigger the Assault Pack? I can only use the Reflector Pack (so OP) or that Torque Pack move.
-Am I just bad or does 00 Gundam suck in this?
-I like Barbatos 4th Form, think I need to practice with it more.
-Why am I so good with Strike Freedom.
-Huh, this base capture thing is interesting.

Are factoring the entire UC or only 0079? I thought this was Seed in general (inclding Astray) VS UC.

As for shoes, I don't mind them at all. Gives the mobile suit a nice firm grip I feel. Like, I can't imagine The O with heels.

I'm talking just 0079.

I like multiple parts of UC more then SEED.

The O I can agree on. It's more the RX, GM, Zaku's that just annoy me.
 
MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM UNICORN RE:0096 Episode 16 – The Side Co-Prosperity Sphere

Well this was very conversation heavy but I enjoyed hearing the Neo Zeon philosophy as well as what Full Frontal believed. It made sense and made me a bit sad that Earth is in such a state in which it can barely supported 2bln people. Though how did it get such influence over the spacenoids if isnt even economically independent.

Audrey
easily became one of the worst characters in Gundam this episode, easily highlights why I much prefer when Banagher is spending his time with Marida. At least she has faith in him
how could Marida give the Laplace Box coordinates

Banagher scene was my favorite because it looked so strange at what he was doing.

Riddhe looks really cool here. Think I like Dark Riddhe more than pre episode 15 Riddhe

Ok guys My 1st year Gunpla anniversary is coming up at the end of August so I wanna build a kit to celebrate that.

Here is what I am looking at:

MG 1/100 Hyaku-Shiki Version 2.0 "Zeta Gundam
MG 1/100 Sinanju Stein Ver. Ka


edit: I am also interested in the zaku perfect grade since it is my favorite grunt suit of all time

I've always found it a bit hard to ship Audrey with Banagher cause those two just have no chemistry together.
 
Seemed like they ignored the trope in Unicorn.
Is it really much of a trope though? I can only think of like a handful of Gundam protags that had to beat the women off with a stick. Only really seems to be Char, Kamille, Paptimus and Athrun. I really can't count Amuro cause that dude's a romantic disaster and Judeau didn't really seem to really care. Uso had a disposable harem and Shakti's too young for me to think of her as a harem character, they just seem like childhood friends.
 
I actually took the time to finish Reconguista.

The ending, like the whole series itself, felt like it was incomplete which is probably due to the fact that it is only 26 episodes. There was some confusing bits, and some character's attitudes do complete 180 turns out of no where at times, but overall, I like it.

The end of the conflict was kind of nonsensical. The whole Crescent ship crashing into Ameria's capital then immediately switching to a time skip was a wtf moment for me. I am however, glad everyone, still alive, got a happy ending tho.

Raraiya best girl. When she is normal that is lol
 
It's been coming out for a few months, but there's a new Crossbone manga that takes place about 18 years after Ghost. It's called Mobile Suit Crossbone Gundam Dust.

Any more details on this? As of right now, it's the latest Late UC..anything, really. Not counting non-cannon stuff like Gaia Gear and G Savior.

I vote Stien. Everything but the Gun is perfection.

It said it was set in 0168. I didn't read it, but Zeonic has database entry on it and a summary of the first chapter. I don't even know how Ghost ended.
