Can I consider myself a "Gundam fan" if I had only watched the U. C. entries? Tried the other spin-offs but they were all shit (G was fine) and dropped most of them.
You say this as if being called an autistic man child who still plays with toys a good thing
>>14952005
You can be Gundam boy, real GUNDAM FANS are able to bear the shitness of series like Seed
>>14952005
You don't have to even watch Gundam to be a Gundam fan. Don't have to built them or even read the books.
You just gotta like gundam.

Gundam would be good without mechs
>>14951148
Gundam only has ugly mechs, but even without mechs it's still dumb and boring.
>>14951148
Who was in the wrong here? Did Optimus forgot about geneva convention?
Why doesn't the Barzam have a shield?
Same reason the Rick Dias doesn't have a shield.
>>14950946
Now that I think about it, a lot of mobile sutis in Zeta didn't have shields... Hm...

Of course. Better still if one of them kills their significant other!

Not on the battlefield.

Haha
First of all i'm going to say i'm not trying to diss anyone in case some faggot gets pissy
I'm fairly new to mecha(not really since I've watched a lot of anime before but i've been actively searching and watching mecha anime for the last year or so) and honestly I'm kinda starting to lose hope here.
Continued here because it was too long for the OP
See I had never watched Gundam before and being the biggest thing I decided it was a good start to watch UC and all that, honestly I was disappointed.
I watched 0079 all the way to CCA. Then I watched 0080, 83 and Unicorn. Being completely honest here the only one of these I can call good is 0080, while 83 and Unicorn have amazing visuals I just can't say they're good because of that and while I don't think Zeta is terrible I think it's decent at best. So yeah I stopped watching Gundam after that.
Then I procceeded to watch other anime, Valvrave and Cross Ange are known for being bad but I figured
>why not, if gundam is "good" and this is "bad" then my tastes might be different
But no they were actually pretty bad, albeit Ange was fun in a way.
I decided Gurren Lagann, long story short it was trash. I saw what they were trying to do but I have to say that no, it doesn't even come close to Getter or older anime that I thought were pretty good for their age and what they aim for.
Break Blade was actually really good, Patlabor the same and while I don't know if it's exactly mecha I liked Tekkaman, Casshern, Karas, Yamato and LOGH
Well my point being, I watched a lot of stuff and while I liked some I disliked majority of them:
Now this might sound stupid but I think the problem I have is that Mecha anime focus TOO MUCH on Mecha, now I think that while robots are cool you can't really enjoy a series that has them if you don't care about the characters, the robots don't have personalities(well some do), the robots are just weapons.
Gundam has a lot of characters that die, but how am I supposed to care about them when they're not developed since the series only focus on Amuro bitching or Char(who I thought was only good in Zeta, not being a fucking retard all the time) being a cool guy.
So to finish, are all mecha anime like this? Like I said mecha are a weapon and maybe because i'm not really a /k/ guy I don't get a boner over seeing them do impressive stuff if I don't give a shit about the characters using said weapon, for example the reason I liked 0080 was because it had well written and developed characters for a short series, it had a clear storyline and it had MEANINGFUL fights, at least 1 per episode(except 2 of them I think).
Maybe I got the genre wrong and it actually is all about the robots since they just want to sell toys, but that disappoints me and seems like a huge waste. Is this all i'm going to find? toy commercials with poorly written characters(was I seriously supposed to care about the indian chick in 0079?) and some cheap pseudo philosophy like MUH EARTH GRAVITY once in a while?
These are very agreeable opinions, anon.
Have you tried any alt timeline Gundam shows?
Get in faggot we're going invoking
>https://www.nyaa.se/?page=view&tid=872819
Here you go, have some despair. Not much, just a little. (Please sir, may I have some more?) No, fuck off. Bloody peasants.
Look, it's been a long minute, but there's just one more episode. One and done. And really, IIRC the last episode was inconsequential and was consolidated into the movie. So whatever, go wild, if you've been good and waited for whatever reason, go ahead. Watch the BDs and go straight to the movies, because this is basically it. 39 isn't too far off, but there's no point in waiting.
Couldn't thank you folks more. Now I can finally justify watching this show with a friend for the first time.
I can only offer this as thanks.
RIPGije, he was the best boy
I need some help identifying something.
I used to have a couple of those molded erasers that were shaped like different mecha like pic related. I remember one of them was an MSM-10 Zock (though I didn't know that at the time). The other one I don't know.
It was yellow, had kind of boxy limbs, curved horns on the side of a Gundam-like head, a jetpack on the back with short wings, and its feet had grooves as if there were toes. It was kind of similar shape-wise to the RX-78, but I know it wasn't a Gundam. I don't know if it was actually something or if it was just some generic design.
>>14945575
That's no Zaku, boy.
>>14945575
Shit dude, I have the Gyan eraser.
Who would win? A robo-ninja or a mecha-pirate?
Horsecok.

>>14939133
>>14939138
This is not okay.
The execution of any of the ideas found in LOGH was total garbage.
I don't know how anyone can watch this and think this was a great representation of history or even politics in general.
The only thing that LOGH had going is its scope and ambitions, which it fucked up of course.
>>14938816
Elaborate your point first.
It's good in terms of characterization, plot, and presenting the ideology of the characters (Yang in particular) *sniff*.
Reinhard is boring character defined by 2/3 traits for most of the show, until he's confronted with the sins of the pastfucks Hilde, and proposes
Most of his supporting cast trumps him.
On the other hand the FPA crew are well written.
>>14938952
FPA characters > Imperial characters
Haven't seen a good lineart thread in a while. Thinking about repainting my old EZ8 kit as pic related.
... Or maybe this one. I can't decide.
Here's the blank that I cleaned up if anyone wants to play around with it.
Reposting an old one. Rainer (German dude from Build Fighters) custom Epyon to face down Fellini's Wing.
Divine Flame is just a month away now, y'all excited to finally watch it?

The anticipation is killing me. Those RAWs better come out at a far faster pace than HnKs OST did.

In the meantime I'm just waiting for someone to rip this from the new Best Collection
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uNLn3OXXbwoA rip of The Brave would be nice as well
Can some one seed the OT release of episode 22 of Garo Flower of Makai? Its not in the mega, all the DDL links are dead, and the torrent has no seeders. thank you!
Literally the only Gundam series worth watching unless you're 10
Nice title you dingus
