Yeah she was shell of her former self. She did so many fucked up things that tomino thought killing her was not enough of a punishment for her. Damn. My tagline for Victory Gundam is "who the fuck won?"

Everyone loses something in war.

The only thing that didn't lose something in Victory was Flanders.
Their R&D department should've built better mechs. I love Kuvira. Her and Satsuki Kiryuin are my current cartoon waifu's, Satsuki's on top though. I love this "come at me bro" Kuvira avatar.

That sucks man. Sorry to hear that. For supplies https://www.scalehobbyist.com/index.php is pretty good. For the actual Gunpla I'm going to suggest amazon. A lot of the models on there are more expensively than HLJ by a bit but they have free shipping so it makes up for it.
Certainly not anyone that watched it

Gundam SEED?
SEED isn't an actual remake, though, just similar.
Isn't The Origin supposed to be something like that ? The books are, I'm not sure what they have planned for the animation.
The currently announced anime project is a four part OVA for the pre-OYW stuff showing the origins of Char and Sayla Mass from the time they were children until the start of the war. It adapts the "Char & Sayla" story arc from Origin, rather than remaking 0079 itself from the start.

I still rewatch that episode every so often and I still laugh at Char getting shot down by Shinta and Qum in that scene.
Stay with ZZ, there's plenty more hilarity to come!
I had to bail out after Book 2 but ended up watching Book 3 right before the new one started and was blown away by how much better it was.
Yes.
Stick with it. It does get better.

Book 4 is a bit...slow, but it's pretty good still, mainly for big eye brows Kuvira.
The original doesn't have Lacus Clyne thus making the original infinitely better.
Holy crap! This is exactly what I needed. Seemed like tools were just spread out all over the place. This is all consolidated into one spot.
Edit: you just saved me 40 bucks in supplies with that website.

I was wondering what everybody here would think of this question. Who's more annoying Min Mei from Macross or Lacus Clyne?
EvilKatarn
Member
Lacus is annoying?
Neither really. Minmei is a big part of Macross. She represents culture and that's what makes Macross different. The infusion of music and how it plays into the plot.
She's the worst.

Right on. Yeah I like that site. It is where I always go to to purchase Vallejo Paints. Their prices are decent and shipping isn't too bad if you make a decent sized order. Glad it worked out for you.

Yeah she's very important to the plot, I just hated how she always toyed with Hikaru and that romance plot with her hippy ass cousin. I guess I'm just a misa Hayes guy on that one. I really just don't like Ms perfect lacus. Athrun dodged a bullet getting out of that relationship.

Neither are that annoying. Minmei and her fate are pretty interesting. Lacus is the least of seeds problems though it is frustrating how perfect she is portrayed as

I wish they would arrange their products better, I can't tell which vallejo arcylic they are selling (ended up all being vallejo air.
I was hoping they have vallejo game air also for that price, the only other places I found are selling them for a dollar more =/

My list of characters I can't stand per series:
First Gundam:
... No one, really. Perfect cast for all sides. M'quve is kind of boring but that's about it.
Zeta Gundam:
- Beltorchika... though I don't really mind her these days
- Rosamia
[spoilers]I kind of like Kats and Sarah. Sue me. [/spoilers]
ZZ Gundam
- Chara
- That chick that was the captain of the L'vie En Rose
CCA:
- Quess, of course.
0083
- Perfect cast.
0083
- Nina is kind of poorly written. Why didn't she recognize Gato!?!?
- I don't care for Cima either
Victory
- Fuella
G Gundam
- Rain
Wing
- Relena
- Wufei
X
- Newtype Dolphins
Turn A
- Perfect Cast
Seed
- Kira
-Fllay
- Athrun's lacky. Nicole? He played piano. Fuck that guy.
- Fllay's boyfriend
Seed Destiny
- Everyone not named Durandal
00
- Hmm... Decent cast. Other than those three druggies. They sucked.
- Saji's girlfriend too.
AGE
- Kio became pretty bad. Everyone had too little screen time to be annoying though.
Unicorn
- Angelo, I guess. I like Riddhe, though his arc should have been given more attention.

- Pretty decent cast

I honestly thought she just defected because paptimus layed his pimp hand upon her.
These lists are hilarious but so true. Gundam is filled with so many annoying characters. I keep forgetting about flay. She did not die fast enough.
Oh good I wasn't the only one.
Also, seeing Corvo's posts is always endlessly entertaining.

That is what I like about Gundam though. At least with the Tomino shows, he's brave enough to write characters he knows people won't like.

Athrun not wanting to fuck Meer... could you not tell how absolutely creeped out she made him?
Imagine breaking up with your fiance, only to have someone who had plastic surgery to look just like her show up in your bed one morning 3 years later, seemingly convinced she's the real thing but acting totally insane. It would needlessly complicate your life, and perhaps put you in mortal danger. (Really, almost certainly put you in danger)
I'd tell anyone in that kind of situation to go jack it and then reconsider the situation. If Athrun would still think it's a good idea to smang Meer after that, then it was meant to be.

I don't have master paptimus' off the chart levels. But uc definitely has weird marital practises.
Athrun didn't even really like real Lacus. He sure as shit has nothing for fake Lacus,
The crazy thing about SEED DESTINY is that Durandal's plan without fake Lacus is PRETTY MUCH PERFECT. Kira and Lacus basically say outright that without the attempt on her life they would have joined him and his war against the merchants of death/illuminati/LOGOS.

He'd just forget to mention the Destiny Plan. Kira was like, "Oh, no you didn't, Durandal." when he revealed his master plan.
To be fair learning that he was batshit Bonkers with eugenics is his second major mistake and causes a bunch of other people to side against him.
His plan before then though is solid outside of the whole fake Lacus thing. You can tell though that the feedback from having her on the first series must have been so positive that the creative staff of Destiny must have been sitting around when someone threw out the idea of hey, get this....Another Lacus on the side of good guys who are actually the bad guys...with bigger breasts. Somewhere in that meeting they forgot to tell the animators that regular Lacus would still have normal sized breasts which is why both of them are going to develop serious back problems in Destiny.
