>Shakespearean

Do you even know what that word means, or are you trying to just sound smart?

>>14896203

Not even close. It probably isn't even the most Shakesperian Gundam, but the Giant Robo beats it by a long stretch when considering anime as a whole.

Will be forced to live out the rest of her life knowing that her hands are forever stained with blood that she'll never be able to wash off.

And it's better this way.

All you need to know as a first time viewer is that the show spends like the first third of its air time having the main crew fuck around in done-in-ones or two parters while the villains scheme in the back. Then there's this really obvious middle section where the show drags, and then the plot actually starts.

And then soon ends because the show got canceled because it just took too long to get going.

I enjoyed Gundam X, but the structure of its plot can definitely be off putting. It's also by far the most optimistic of all Gundam series, which is kinda funny considering the name and the setting would make you think it's gonna be some edgy shit.

You basically summed up my thoughts on the show as well.
I think it's the only show aside from maybe Build Fighters or ZZ that made me smile at the end and go "that was really nice".
0079 had me tearing up out of happiness, Zeta had me go "fuck...", CCA made me go "Woah", Victory had me crying etc., I could go on for every show, but Gundam X stands out for having the happiest, nicest ending.

Gundam X is not an amazing show by any means, but it's very solid. It does a lot of stuff that no other Gundam series since has really attempted, and very specifically rails against the transhumanism aspect of UC Gundam that pretty much every Gundam show these days wholeheartedly embraces.

It also has really bad animation. Like, holy fucking shit, it's so bad that the titular Gundam X only ever correctly fires the Satellite Cannon once.

Bizon was an idiot, but many people would have gone insane for much less. Hina was wondrously cute.

Still, I can not side with him. His problem is that he never realized that Hina had put him in the Friendzone even before the arrival of Aoba.

Things do slow down, yeah, although the overall conflict and setting always felt really vague. Like I don't remember them explaining why the army doesn't use airplanes.

>>14933657
It felt really awkward with pacing, I mean you don't get the main character saying anything until half way through the episode and even then I think he says sub 10 lines. It also felt weird how much of a huge gap the main mech is compared to all the armored core mechs running around and how they treated the nimble ones like a huge jump in technology.

The last two volumes are translated, they just need to be typeset, you can check out the script of each on the scanalators site

>>14901513

oh wow really? last time i checked it was basically a dead proyect

>>14901502
>and i wanted to know if the anime adaptation is any good?

well you could always try watching it to see for yourself. Oh wait that might require you to form an opinion on something that wasn't given to you by some asshole online

is this even translated?

>Gundam
>good

I disagree.

From what I've seen:

0079 > G > 0083 > F91 > 08th MS > Thunderbolt > 0080 > Gunpla Builders > IBO

It's probably more interesting that the human is capable of taking down a mech in the first place

>>14979157
in the MG universe its usually just done via using a rocket launcher (or setting bombs on the exposed areas near the feet IIRC)

>>14979151
well I mean if we look at empire strikes back luke took out a AT-AT by slicing open a hatch and throwing a grenade in there. so yeah it could be interesting because it can show a flaw in the design of a mech.

while the movies do cut out some wonky stuff, they miss out on loads of character development for obvious reasons.

I started the show around christmas last year after i got my first gunpla kit in a quest to watch all of the UC stuff in order (which i didnt even do) and aside from the dub and the animation not being that great I still enjoyed it
>TLDR watch the show

>>14978508
Well, let this serve as lesson that no matter how much important is your position in a project, you can't get away after pissing executives.

Could we partly use this thread to discuss that mess that is the anime industry directorial staff hierarchy? Someone have any useful link that explain the differences and roles of those directorial positions?

>>14978508
As if it matters. The Origin was 100% executive producer mandated and controlled. They'll hire another yes-man director from anywhere to fill his gap.
