So why was Turn A last good Gundam show? In fact, why have proper season-length Gundam shows of late varied from bad to mediocre, at best?

00S1 was great though.

Gundam 00 was great for the first half.

Those.

Turn A is clearly the best though.

Well technically Thunderbolt and Origin trilogy was great but yeah, it was the last proper show. I didn't think much of 00, personally.
>>
>>144890194
Exactly. Turn A was shit
>>
Tomino is a bad writer and Gundam has been stale as fuck for the past 15 years.
>>
>>144890222
If you're not shitposting for the sake of it, what didn't you like about Turn A?

I think constant new "original" settings killed Gundam for me. Yeah sure, UC was getting crowded but that doesn't mean you need a new goddamn setting for most of your subsequent shows. Establish a new decently long continuity of some sort and stick to it.
>>
>>144890362
Not him, but Turn A gets really slow and meandering with its plot and doesn't really do much for a lot of the show. However it's still my favorite gundam with 0079 because it has an amazing final stretch. Pretty much everything from episode 40 on is fantastic.
>>
>>144890421
It's the opposite for me. While it was slow, the conflict while on Earth was what I found most entertaining about Turn A. A lot of people seem to dislike the slow pacing which is understandable. I would hardly call it significant enough to make Turn A as a whole shit.

>>144890362
He's clearly shitposting for the greater good.
>>
>>144890759
Shitposting for the greater good is saying G-Saviour was the last good Gundam. Maybe it will elicit actual discussion.

Haven't watched it but I liked the opening of gundam unicorn. Should I start watching it

Not even half, it was decent until the three thrones were introduced.
>>
>>144890623
Well gundam fans are incredibly autistic and opinionated.
>>
>>144889965
Because Tomino can't write humans at all and everyone else who writes Gundam just ends up copying his awful writting. Turn A is only great compared to other Gundams but by itself is just a slightly above average show. Everything after they finally get to space is completely retarded and there's plenty of stupid shit before too.
>>
>>144890206
Thunderbolt tries too hard to be "mature and realistic" and just becomes a comedy by the end.
>>
Which girl is best girl, and why is it PURU PURU PURU PURU PURU PURU PURU PURU PURU PURU?

The first 2-3 episodes of Turn-A made me think it was going to be the best thing ever. Turned into slow boring shit with a retarded villain. In fact almost everyone was just stupidly retarded. MC is a pussy most of the time, Gundam doesn't even get a beam gun, have to wait for half the show until they stop calling it "the white doll", some of the worst mech designs in any gundam and muh moonlight butterfly.

I almost dropped it when the Turn-A gundam waved its 2 sabers so fast the beams blended into fans and then it distorted light momentarily so he was invisible and could slip past the enemy. I'm not sure if I ever yelled "what the fuck" so loudly at an anime.

Turn A was too tame. It was Tomino stripped of everything that made him Tomino.
Only the Tomino-est Gundams are good.
>>
Zeta is the best gundam
prove me wrong
>>
Because it was it was the last show where there wasn't a "We gotta sell more toys!" mentality behind it.
>>
>>144897189
I know right? Taste differs and all, but I'm always surprised at how highly regarded Turn A is.
>>
Turn A isn't UC right, I can just puck up and play? Same goes for G Reco I guess.
>>
>>144897189
Sounds like I dodged a bullet there by not watching it.
>>
>>144900811
Nah, don't, it's important to watch at least some UC to really enjoy Turn A.
>>
>>144900994
Oh, alright. Thanks anon.

There's a lot of references but its not necessary to understand the plot.
>>
>>144889965
While I agree that Turn A is one of the best

00 and GBF are also very good, therefore Turn A cannot be the last good gundam show.
