I'm wondering what the best Gundam series are.

I've been watching Iron Blooded Orphans lately.
>>
G-Reco.

Don't even bother with any of the others they're simply not as good.
>>
IBO is the best Gundam since SEED Destiny
>>
>>145455620
>since SEED Destiny

More like since 08th MS Team.
>>
>>145455209
Maybe not 'the' best but man is thunderbolt awesome. Only 4 ep awesome, and the manga takes it later in the direction of fighting evil Buddhist monks brainwashing people (which I personally loved, mostly for the straight way a ridiculous concept was delivered)
>>
G-Reco
>>
TURN A is the best gundam.
>>
>>145455209

The original Gundam movie trilogy is pretty good, Zeta's a good follow-up to that
>>
Top 5 would be
1. Turn A
2. 0079
3. War in the Pocket
4. G Gundam
5. G Reco

These are my objective opinions and cannot be refuted.

This top three mimics my own. You have to watch 0079 first unless you only care about SEED/wing/G. If you're planning on watching anything else watch 0079 first.
I haven't seen G Reco yet though.
>>
1) ZZ
2) 0079/MSG
3) Zeta
4) Turn A
5) G

G Gundam, but that's only because it revived the franchise during a tough financial period.

Is there a problem here? It starts off shit, but ends up better than everything else.
>>
>>145455209
I don't think there's an outright 'best' Gundam series but my personal favorite is Char's Counterattack, but that's by no means a starting point.

If you plan on getting into Gundam just watch it in production order, with the exception of Turn A which I'd recommend watching after finishing everything else.
>>
>>145457291
It doesn't end up better than everything else though. It starts off shit, gets a lot better, than goes back to being shit when bright gives up his ship and lets seven kids head off to the final battle by themselves without anyone else in the crew.
>>
Is Bright the best character in all of UC? He's seen some shit and has been there most of the time. Really just a good guy.
>>
G Gundam, because they can turn super saiyan
>>
>>145457480
The only good thing about G Gundam was its character driven plot, which more than makes up for its stupid fucking gundam designs and overall lack of a story.
>>
I'd say G-Reco, but it has an incomprehensible script and cast
>>
>>145455209
0079, Zeta, Turn A, GBF. Everything else is mediocre or bad.
>>
>>145457598
Shit, I forgot 00 S1. Bretty good too.
>>
Unicorn is legit good.
>>
>>145455209
Zeta and 0080.

Anyone who disagrees will be gassed and then colony dropped, in that order.
>>
>>145455209
It's Zeta.

Only contrarians say otherwise.

0079 is fine but there's too much super robotto shit

The plot is ridiculous. The characters are great though. Pretty much the only Gundam series that really made me like everyone equally. Except for Rain. Fuck that bitch and her turkroach bf. Domon deserves better.

Also Master Asia was largely right.

>>145474001
I hate it because there's no really good characters, the plot, which was barely there in the first half, turns to shit in the second half. I might've just settled with disliking it if I dropped it, but I was determined to get to the gouf scene. Was not worth it.
>>
>>145455209
1)SEED Destiny
2)IBO
3)Wing

Honorable mention to ZZ, which would be the best series if only it were anime

Where's the love for 00? It was practically the last well-invested, well-received Gundam series before sunrise dumbed down the franchise to be 100% for kids only (excluding Unicorn OVA)

First season was great but the second season and the movie really brought it down. I still like it a lot though. Setsuna is one of the best Gundam MCs.

>>
>>145474991
I thought season 2 was more exciting to watch than s1 just because the battles were more tactical and full of overpowered tech on both sides, as well as UNDERSTANDING which goes quite well with the war theme. Plus, the mixture between CB, A-LAWS, and Katharon's plotlines is well-done for the most part.

The movie, however, was a hit-or-miss to me, even if I still love 00 afterwords.
>>
Zeta
>>
>>145475084
Not bad persay but alot of the changes from its source-material novel are VERY looked down upon. Episode 4 & 7 are the worst in regards to this aspect. Novel presented Unicorn's subject matter with far more gravitas.

and this >>145475141
>>
>>145475084
My problem with Unicorn was just how far they pushed Laplace's box. Like by the end of episode 2, I had lost all interest in the box because they would not stop throwing the name around. Also characters are kind of a big deal for me, Marida and Bright were not enough. Full Frontal was disappointing, so I found the boss fight very disengaging.
>>
>>145474929
>Where's the love for 00?
>It was the last well-invested,
>well-received Gundam series

You have your answer.
>>
Don't listen to these nostalgia fags I'll make it simple for you.

1. Seed
2. Seed destiny
3. Wing
4. Gundam 00
5. There is no 5
>>
>>145475421
I thought the whole point about Full Frontal was that he's disappointing. He isn't Char - Char is an ideologue, while Full Frontal is basically a politician. Unicorn was about Banagher and Mineva trying to avoid difficult compromises and bring about an ideal solution.

The box was shit, but I'm not sure if they could have done much with it to begin with. Maybe make it some sort of new psycho-Gundam with even greater powers?
>>
>>145475590
I would've made it something from Turn A.
>>
>>145475581
There was a time where baits were more fun.
>>
>>145475590
I was fine with the box reveal, it was the never ending hype from 90% of the cast about it.

Ehh, it's fine to say Full Frontal was meant to be a politician and contrast with other, cooler characters. But I don't think it's fine to say he was meant to be disappointing. To be the most overt Char clone yet, featuring in the cap ontop of the cap that was CCA, he had a pedigree to live up to. Maybe just playing the politician in (what I found to be) the least politically interesting UC series meant Full Frontal was doomed to disappoint. But he could have presented better.

Also a small note, not really a criticism. I really wish Bright had just seized control of the laser, or at least put his life on the line for it. You've rebelled before with the AEUG, why not just do it again?

Battle Fighters. I ain't even baiting, BF just got everything so right. Everybody got their own woman, the fights were hype as shit, the drama wasn't too forced since people don't die and Ramba Ral is the coolest character in Gundam. Try to prove me wrong. Try was shit.
