I hated how Kira lost but at the same time it did give him freaking Strike Freedom. Did you guys see the Special Edition where Kira becomes an admiral etc. Also didn't you hate the fact they completely threw away the Athrun and Cagalli relationship. Sigh GSD stinks i mean only because SEED was good that a sequel was either supposed to be better or it sucked
>>14961454
both show are 10/10
>>14961454
I always preferred Kira/Cagalli. I was pretty annoyed when they threw that away to pair them with Lacus and Athrun. They could have at least come up with a better reason for them not getting together than "they were really siblings all along". That just feels lazy.
>>14961900
I feel like the director just stopped liking Cagalli 3/4 of the way through SEED. It would explain what he did to her character throughout Destiny.
Well, well, well, look what just happened here!
>>14962053
I don't mind Kira, but he got is own show. He should have died or atleast did the whole "fake my death" thing. Think the story might have been better.
>>14961516
Indeed.
............
This is a joke thread, right? If not, I guess I'll play along for now.
>>14961900
This is a Star Wars reference. Kira and Cagalli are the Luke and Leia of Seed; just like Char and Sayla had the secret sibling thing going on.
>>14961938
Everyone's pretty sure Morosawa (the writer) thought Cagalli's VA was fucking Fukuda (her husband, and the director).
>>14962113
>she was maybe fucking Fukuda
That would explain a lot of what happened.
>>14962053
but Shinn is not popular here in Japan
What are they doing?
>>14962113
>This is a Star Wars reference. Kira and Cagalli are the Luke and Leia of Seed; just like Char and Sayla had the secret sibling thing going on.
It was lazy and came out of nowhere in Star Wars, too. Being a reference doesn't excuse it.

No.
SEED is 8.5/10, Destiny is 7/10.
>>14963132

My love for you knows no bounds
>>14963229
I'd give SEED a 8.5, and SEED Destiny a 9.

This was legit one of the worst if not the worst anime I've ever seen. I wish I could get the time back.
>>14969393
that's a girl anon...
>>14964247
>Why are you so sad, Shinn?
>Luna, I just killed your sister for no fucking reason
>Oh no! Please inseminate me so I can share your grief! Please put your dick inside me to fill the hole which was created by you killing Luna!
I raged so hard during this scene.
SEED gets lots of hate here and it's understndable. But I fucking loved SEED, I loved its characters and teen melodrama. And Destiny literally shits on feelings of fans like me who actually enjoyed SEED. Destiny should have never existed.

Not lewd enough.

I can fix that! Had to censor since this a blue board.
>>14961454
> they completely threw away the Athrun and Cagalli relationship.
This was a good thing.
At least the Cosmic Era gave us Stargazer.
>>14974166
Nice one anon.
Seed Destiny and Seed are pretty much the same. More godly mobile suits, sweet romance, and WMD's. People tend to dislike Destiny because of the new protagonist who can be quite annoying at times. Do keep in mind that he has attitude problems because he experienced extreme emotional and mental trauma as a youth.
I like it
>>14976161
>Seed Destiny and Seed are pretty much the same.
You're wrong, I believe that they are two completely different things.
Hell no! the series feels like almost a complete rehash of the original, there just isn't anything worth watching about it, the main character is annoyingly and painfully emo throughout the series, i guess his angst/emo-ness is justified but its overused. Cagali and Athrun's characters are ruined, strike freedom is even more OP than freedom, the only parts worth watching are freedom's return to action and freedom vs. savior.
Cuck guy

>>14970036
Destiny was a hot pile of garbage and I gave up on it after about 12 episodes because I couldn't stand Shinn as a protagonist, eventually watched the special edition, but still regret ever watching the series, far and away the worst Gundam series.
>>14974132
Fucking hell my laptop can upscale better than this in realtime.
>>14961454
Technically, He become admiral in TV version.
Special Edition make Athrun Orb admiral too.
So, he no longer just low level worker who can't help Cagalli
Cronyism is what you called promoting the terrorist and traitors gave a high position to the Zaft military. I smell a coup.
>>14978429
>>14978526
Both are disgusting.
>>14978528
but it's vodka
>>14978708
Cool scene.
Really, the moment he gets it with Vestige playing in the background is all great.
>>14978708
>>14978947
Did Strike Freedom have any good scenes beside this one? I remember everything else being rehashed stock footage, and pic related being the most misleading promotional image I've seen in a while.
>>14971289
Remaster ruined this scene so hard
>>14980584
Best Char.
>>14981573
Except he had lolrandom motivations, was not really Charismatic, and needed pills.
Zechs Merquise was a much better Char imho.
>>14980584
>>14979593
I love how the blood swivels in his helmet.
>>14983184
Same poster: Its more of a swirl actually, its really touching. That blood swirly was the best thing in that scene. Its really THICK.... That's what she said.
>>14981586
How does needing pills subtract from him being a good char clone?
>>14978399
His Japanese voice was so bad, didn't sound like a teenager at all.
>>14981573
Not Char, best Liquid Snake clone. Between him and all the DNA talk, I suspect some of the creative minds were trying to copy shit from MGS.
>>14983571
Well MGS is pretty popular.
>>14983275
Made him look pathetic and weak.
But at that point it's mostly because I plain disliked him, he barely did shit and had very little development except in the end where he is finally brought to be the big bad except having your whole story, motivation and reasons revealed in the last 3 episodes or so is pretty bad characterization.
Apart from being mysterious, I thought there was nothing really compelling about him, I couldn't care about him, didn't want to know more, he never ever leave the mask which is bad (imho). Basically, he was suppose to be a cool char clone which I didn't give a damn about. Having both him and Athrun as antagonists while having two protagonists would have work if his opposition with Mu wasn't a sidetrack that had very little importance in the grand scheme of things. Then he is pushed as Kira's enemy out of nowhere (even though you can see it coming, there is still nothing substantial between the two except Raul is a comical villain).
i'm a huge Gundam fan as well and it really pained me to "bitch" about this one, with that being said, after reviewing Gundam Seed last week (The Good), I felt a need to review Destiny this week (The Bad), i agree with the Kira being overpowered statement, i did enjoy that he kicked ass, but there's a limit to how strong and how quickly someone should become that strong, I'm not even gonna get started on Shinn, if I do that i'll just end up bitching all day about how he was one of the things that brought Destiny down
>>14980048
>"I am so incompetent, that I die just by walking in to a sword the other guy was trying to move away from me."
Yup, ruined it so freaking hard. Instead of fighting for revenge, Athrun has to fight Kira to save face. Glad I didn't watch the remaster.
>>14984352
>Made him look pathetic and weak.
But that's part of his character. He's a ticking timebomb who tries to take everyone else with him.
