I keep seeing the show depict this amazing love story with these characters in the endings and openings but the love stories never happen. They barely interact.
Side characters like Mu and Murrue have more chemistry and development together. Kira and Lacus barely talk. Hell, he has more meaningful discussions with fucking Athrun. How did these pairs get so goddamn popular in japan?

They look cute together.
Because fujoshi. Not even kidding. SEED and Destiny are largely kept afloat by

Or that Jesus and his best bud would bang.

No shit, anon

I think you meant DVD sales. The model kits (outside of Kira's suits) bombed.

What do you expect?
Women are incapable of understanding deep bonds of friendship between two individuals.
Seriously, ask ANY female what they think Master & Commander: The Far Side of the World is about.

>instead of just repeating shit people made up, how about I exaggerate it until it's completely laughable
Meanwhile in the real world SEED toy sales accounted for 1/3 of all Gundam sales in 2003 and DVDs were worth barely more than a third that much.

Yeah, that was pretty surprising, it's like Fukuda was trying to sell something with those OP/ED and tell something completely different in the show itself.
>How did these pairs get so goddamn popular in japan?
Japan is some sort of pocket Bizarro dimension.
>That fucking QUALITY

>Cagalli's transparent dress
Wait, why is there no porn of this?
>>13846089
What's worse is that Athrun and Cagali don't even end up together. And even worse is that according to Morosawa it's because Cagali is a world noble and can't marry Athrun or some weird crap like that which makes no sense.
>>13849688
Surprising there's porn of Lacus & orphans.
>>13849730
/ss/ isn't really surprising.
>>13849753
Then why is it only one short chapter in a n anthology series?
>>13848007
Fuck off Disney.
Forgetting if true, but given that Cosmic Era was to be Universal Century for 21st Century audiences, aside from Kira = Amuro, who are Athrun, Cagalli, and Lacus supposed to stand in for again?
>>13849704
Fukuda changed his mind on that though and said they do eventually get together at some point.
I remember this rumor that cagalli was shat on so badly in destiny was due jealousy of morosawa, who thought her voice actress was having an affair with fukuda or some shit.
there was also something about her va not wanting to reprise her role in anything after that and iirc there was this srw game in which cagalli's lines were used from a previous game or weren't dubbed.
then again, this was over ten years ago, so I might be remembering wrong
