Hi guys! Just want everybody to know that the correct spelling of the series isn't Gundam Seed or Gundam SEED Destiny. It's Gundam SEED DESTINY. That's right, all caps. Just like Gundam AGE.
Peace!

1: It's a convention to use all-caps in logos, you're being too literal. Do you refer to Turn A as "∀ GUNDAM CALLED TURN "A" GUNDAM" as well? Or do you say "MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM UC UNICORN"?
2: You're being inconsistent anyways, because they often render it as MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM SEED DESTINY. Pic related.
3: The Japanese community *does* call it "MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM SEED DESTINY", but then, this is a community that barely understands English. The English and Japanese Gundam fandoms have different ways of referring to the same things - we say "Turn A Gundam" while they say "∀ガンダム".

1: No, they never call Turn A that, that's just the subtitle on the logo teaching how to call it. "UC UNICORN" is not used too and it's redundant. They write UC but it means Unicorn, just like they write Z, V, W, ∀, but it means Zeta, Victory, Wing, Turn A.
2: The japanese words on titles are more commonly adapted in lower case. Kidou Senshi = Mobile Suit. Tekketsu no Orphans = Iron-Blooded, etc.
3: We write "Turn A" cause it's easy than to find the "∀" on the keyboard. Everybody still say it in the same way.

1: I was joking, but it is an established convention to use all caps in titles. It's not "MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM WING", it's Mobile Suit Gundam Wing.
2: Sure, as long as you ignore basically every piece of Gundam merchandise released overseas. Just look at some DVD logos. MOBILE FIGHTER G GUNDAM. MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM 0080 WAR IN THE POCKET. Or hell, since you brought up IBO, pic related.
3: Nigga, Japanese keyboards don't come with a turned A either. Moreover, I'm not just talking about casual conversation. The Wikipedia page in English is "Turn A Gundam", the Japanese page is "∀ガンダム". Hell, look at Wing, which the Japanese prefer to call "ガンダムW", or Victory, which they prefer to call "Vガンダム”.

What a half-assed, lukewarm resolution.
If you're gonna clench your ass about these things, go all the way. Find a way to type DESTINy where the D is 2 to 3 font sizes larger. You should also never used SEED in the main title line, only S. You also need to find a way to have the 機動戦士 appear above ガンダム, MOBILE SUIT (at 0.75 font size to) GUNDAM SEED below it and not cutting into the section below the ム, and have シード デスティニー above the "ESTIN" in DESTINy.I can only pay you one (You) per post. It's not much but take it if you must.

What a clusterfuck of a logo. I never noticed how crazy it was.

1: I know it is a convention for logos. But SEED has more going on with all his acronyms: ZAFT, PLANT, FAITH, ZAKU, GOUF, and of course, SEED. Sure, Destiny, as the mobile suit, it's fine, but on the title it's DESTINY. Maybe it was supposed to mean something. Also, it's New Mobile Report Gundam Wing. Only in the US was released as Mobile Suit.
2: Again, I know it's a convention for logos and promo materials and not only japanese ones. There's not any much to say about it.
3: Yes, exactly what I said at 1: here >>15473499
>>15473553
Now you just being silly, but I don't mind, we all are. Keep with the good humor.
>>15473567
GUNDAM is an acronym in SEED as well, so you should be typing Mobile Suit GUNDAM SEED DESTINY if anything.
>Maybe it was supposed to mean something.
Possible. Fukuda's wife was one of the finest writers of our time, may she rest in piece.
