This is such a ridiculous take on Gundam that it's somehow

>>15377254
All of the stupid kids in it make me want to kill myself. They are all such horrible monstrosities and manage to both be baby geniuses but also absolutely fucking retarded. Treize and Zechs are the only characters that aren't absolutely retarded/terrible people.

The Gundams looked like some leftover designs from G. The grunts however are one of the best in the franchise.

Some stock footage.

Plot is inconsistent. Characters are retarded.

I think it's okay.

>OZ mobile suits are the worst pieces of crap ever built.
>Quatre's an idiot. He says he's sorry while he slaughters things. Oh, an indecisive soldier who hates to kill! Good idea, colonists!
>Wu Fei is a male chauvinist pig to an annoying extent.
>Noin is an airhead. She chose to let Wu Fei live, even though he attacked and killed her men in their sleep. Disgusting.
>The Wing Gundam self destructed. Heero lived. It was repaired. you can't live through that explosion, and you can't repair a pile of ash (which is what a self destruct system should turn a mobile suit into).
>After DeathScythe is shot several times in the head at close range, it's barely even scratched. I'm beginning to think that this show might be one-sided...
>An Aries full-on explodes from a head shot with a machine gun. Sure, there are plenty of good reasons for fuel tanks to be in the head!
>An Aries goes down with one hit from a foot solder's bazooka. That's just sad.
>The buster rifle can destroy an army of Virgos, standing side by side, all of whom are shielded. It's a good thing we didn't have to sit through, say, an actual fight.
>Zechs' uniform, mask, and hair color are all such a blatant rip-off of Char that it makes me sick to my stomach. Not to mention the long lost sisters and abandoned first names that are strangely foreign sounding. C'mon, the only thing stranger that "Casval" is "Milardo".
>Gundam Wing models are crap. The plastic is brittle and the proportions are off. Worst of all, they have "HG" kits modeled all in one color! Go buy an HGUC kit and spare yourself the heartbreak.
>Frankly, just the nickname "God of Death" pisses me off. You just know he gave that to himself. At least "Nightmare of Solomon" leaves it to your imagination.
>No machine gun for him. Shoot him down! *Fires machine gun* I guess we should assume this is a translation error? Is it possible that the entire series is some kind of terrible translation error?

>Every person on Gundam Wing is physically attractive. Compare Treize to Degin Zabi from 0079. Compare Trowa to Norris Packard from 08th MS Team. I guess the conclusion we should draw is that Gundam Wing is for preteen girls.
>There doesn't seem to be a war going on. Few or no civilian casualties whereas in MS Gundam, Zeon and Federal battles cause the deaths of civilians by the dozen.
>The final battle is more like man against machine than man against man. What's the point? At least in the UC, in combat enemies on both sides know how to die heroically.
>OZ troops don't seem to know how to dodge!
>Virtually all the main characters live, except Trieze, and that was technically suicide(you don't really think Wufei could've beaten Trieze in a real fight do you?)
>Why are all the main characters all so...pretty? It's like all the ugly people are either dead or evil, and all the heroes are total studs or babes!
>OZ MS stay the same through the whole series: Leos and later Virgos and Taurus. Zeon MS get stronger as the series goes on: Zaku II to Gouf to Dom to Gelgoog(which is just as strong as the Gundam.)
>Forty Maganacs, and not one of them dies. Feh.
>The RX-78-2 Gundam gets destroyed in an all-out to the death duel. The Wing Zero slices off Epyon's arm, blows up Libra and flies off with no more than a messed up paintjob.
>Is the Lightning Count the only decent pilot OZ has? Zeon had the Red Comet, the Blue Nova, Black Tristars, Nightmare of Solomon, White Wolf of Solomon, Red Lightning, Desert Thunder and the Ghost of Solomon, the Federal Forces had the White Shooting Star, the White Eagle and the Blue Destiny. All OZ had was one decent pilot in a powerhouse MS. (Noin doesn't count since she's mostly on the Wing boys' side, not OZ).

>The G-Boys are supposed to be this ultra secret covert operations team. Heero got busted on DAY 1 of the job by geting caught by Zechs. Sloppy tradecraft.
>The G-Boys were supposed to act separately from one another by secretly taking out bases ALL over the world. A few episodes later they meet each other. Was the ballistics guy drunk when he threw them to Earth or is AC Earth just as big as a small county?
>The scientists THEMSELVES trained the G-Boys for their operation. I guess the colony's military forces must have been so lazy to have actually given this job to the old geezers. (btw, since when did scientific institutions give PhD's in covert warfare?)
>The people of the colony through all of their suffering under the Feds placed their hope on 5 pre-pubescents to regain their freedom. The idea was to have five 20-foot tall and xx-ton heavy robots to quietly SNEAK around the Earth without being caught and nibble at the Feds strongholds. Is that a plan or what?
>Assuming that the plan of the Colonies was to nibble down on Earth's defenses by using the G-Boys to attack strongholds on Earth, what next? They didn't have a fleet, they have no army.
>Some GW fans tried to rationalize this by saying "The colonists were planning a colony drop AFTER the G-Boys weaken Earth defenses". Really? How did they plan to transport one when they didn't even have warships or MS to escort it? Or are they assuming that the Feds are so stupid that they'd just let them do it in a sense of fair play.
>Deathscythe and Sandrock have no medium or long range weapons aside from vulcans. Fans have defended this by saying "those two MS were meant for close combat and covert operations". Close Combat? Why would anyone in his right mind want a costly close combat situation when you could use a gun to kill? Covert Operations? YEAH RIGHT! I can imagine it now... a 20-foot metallic monster sneaking around a Fed base on its tiptoes while hugging walls to avoid detection...

>Any time one of the Gundam pilots gets into the cockpit on an OZ mobile suit, it can take about 10x the punishment that it normally takes. It sometimes seems that 1 or 2 bullets can off an OZ suit when a bad guy pilots it. Exaples are in the Duo meets Hilde episode and even when Heero battles Wu Fei in the movie.
>OZ very early on needed to realize that those little pea shooter machine guns can't hurt the Gundams.
>Why in Episode 17 does DeathScythe and Sandrock have such a hard time getting past the Leos at the shuttle base? The Leos have the aforementioned pea shooter guns.
>"Thank you Sandrock!!" That alone should say something.
>Everyone is just a little too suicidal. "My only chance is to self detonate" Please, if these guys were as good as they're supposed to be, they would keep on fighting not take some easy way out. Norris from 08th MS team KNEW he would eventually be done in ep 10 but provided bar none one of the best cat and mouse battle sequences in a gundam show, relying on his survival instinct and skill, not just hitting the kill switch and "taking them out with me". Remember what Bright told Hayato in ep 20 of Mobile Suit Gundam? "Rely on ingenuity, you don't know what will happen in a fight!" Those too tough Gundam suits should be able to pull them all through any scrape.
>Leos seem to blow up even if the paint job is scratched. If you look carefully in Endless Waltz, you'll see a Leo blow up WITHOUT BEING HIT!
>The fans can bee annoying. Have you seen any Wing fan sites? They act as if Wing is the only Gundam series there is. And there is the Yaoi fangirls, always with there 1x2 and 3x4 slash fics and Relena bashing.
>The oz mobile suits are poorly designed, they have no close range combat weapons, while almost all Zeon mobile suits have close range weaponry.
>By the time you get to the end of the series, you've heard "TOTAL PACIFISM" so many times, you'll want to go to war.

my main complaints are:
>Gundams are a little too close nation themed suits rather than weapons of war. Owing to their G Gundam origins.

>Gundams were OP from the start. Which sucks because AC has the best looking grunts, but they are basically cannon fodder on a mass scale, so they never built up a fanbase like UC suits.You never really feel like the characters are in any real danger

>Pacing is a but wonky.

All and all its good, one of my favs. But I also hate G Gundam, so me and /m/ have radically different tastes.

Why does every one say the grunts are the best? They look like shit and are generic as hell.

This isn't really a fair comparison considering one is a setting that's had decades of build up through spinoffs, sequels, prequels, and multimedia like novels and games, and the other was essentially a one and done.

oh well
