Is anything Gundam related worth bothering with, like the anime, or is it a shitty meme series pushed by autists?

A lot of the robots look cool, and at least MSG is certainly worth a watch.

Shitposting is against the global rules. Stop spamming threads.
>>
>>15611903
Yeah, but only MSG.

The rest is boring.
>>
>>15611899
It's easier to judge that by series instead of as a franchise

There's lots of nice designs and tons of kits if you're into that though

Why do Gettercucks always do this

MSG, Origins, 8th, Zeta, Stardust, Unicorn, Turn A, in that order.

I really liked the UC OVAs (specifically 0080, 0083, Thunderbolt, 08th MST), but they somewhat require watching 0079 as they are all basically just side-stories of it. You can watch the compilation movies instead of the spending 10+ hours watching the show. And if you liked the movies, then by all means watch the show.
>>
About half of UC is worth a watch; only the second half of the first TV anime is actually good. Rest is shitty meme series pushed by mega-autists
>>
>>15611962
Oh no
I'm a Gundam fan but I also like Getter.
You baiting faggot

>>15611999
8th is not good though
Especially story wise.

you need to have Robot Autism to enjoy Gundam, period. Thunderbolt might be literally the only Gundam that can be enjoyed by a normie that is not innately titillated by the idea of giant robot warfare.

EVERYTHING else, even 08th MS, requires an autistic fascination in the setting. Part of what makes 0079 or Zeta bearable to such a fan is simply the fact that they create more context to apply to the machines and the development of various technologies associated with them. It's the satisfaction of understanding the full historical record. Within that context, some garbage ass looking scene where Quattro Vagina fights two Hi-Zacks is suddenly kind of fascinating. A compilation of dirt quality clips of Amuro killing people in his ugly ass Dijeh is interesting.

People keep recommending 0083 but it's just mech porn. It has garbage ass characters, the only thing that keeps you in there is the desire to see some gritty retro OVA REALROBITS Gundam action. Unicorn? So goddamn dull and uninteresting but the mechporn was godlike.

So do you have Robot Autism, OP? That's the real question. And if you have to ask, you probably don't
>>
>>15612278
You wrote all that for a fucking cartoon.
It's a form of entertainment, like every other anime it doesn't have a complexe or deep story. So shut up and if you don't like it don't watch it.
>>
*insert franchise here* is a godawful piece of shit and you should be ashamed of enjoying even one thing from it.
>>
>>15612488

Dude's allowed to have opinions, my dude. But you're also allowed to have opinions on his opinions and so on. So whatever.

Not really

It just bothers me that all we do on /m/ nowadays is camplain and shit on popular shows, it's like we don't enjoy anything anymore. I want the positivity that we had before to come back dammit.
>>
>>15611899
Zeta Gundam, Chars Counterattack, 0083 Stardust Memories, Gundam Build Fighters and Gundam F91 are all great.

All the rest are garbage
>>
>>15611899
UC: MSG, Zeta, CCA, F91
Non-UC: GGundam

If those don't trigger an interest, then I can't really recommend anything more. Might want to watch the compilation moves for MSG and Zeta if you're just gonna give it a try.

The UC is a very solid. At least one movie and a couple OVAs are quite flawed but nothing in the UC can be considered absolute shit. The AU is a different story however.

Posting this here because we apparently have a janitor/mod that is pro ANN to the point of deleting /m/ topics.

And Lauren improved with her 0083, I am disappointed.

I don't agree with some particular points but overall yeah. At least you have to be a scifi autist that gets wet when they explain how their made up particles work.

Yes, wet. You are no longer a real man when you enter this road.

TBQH OP you're a shitty meme pushed by autists.

Also Gundam is pretty cool.

The first series is good for a 70's mech show.
I also enjoyed War in the Pocket even though it was more of a drama than a mech anime.
Every other Gundam series I have watched has been up it's own ass with it's message (Victory, Wing, Seed.) or just stupid (008th MS Team.)

Watch whatever you think looks cool and don't form your opinions on whatever people say, whether it be on a cantonese crayola drawing board or on some review site.

Form your own damn opinions

Who is menstrual-kun?
I get the feeling I want to be his friend.
>>
>>15615438
Some alpha fujo from /a/ that got called out during IBO livestreams and calls everyone who disagrees with her Menstrual-kun. She's bitter for no reason and can't form a decent argument.
>>
>>15614888
0080 sucked, dude

Going to need a citation for that.

/m/ must be filled with newfags who don't lurk because the OP is cheap bait.
Also any poster that unironically calls anything a meme doesn't have any valuable opinions and isn't worth taking seriously.

Welcome to adulthood loser. The only anything worth a shit at this point is getting drunk and finding the will to wake up and go to work in the morning.
>>
>>15612278
the entire purpose of wing and G was to attract normies who wouldn't be into MUH WAR STORIES. It worked really well.

Also fuck you, Unicorn is fucking amazing.
>>
>>15619634
Not him, but Unicorn didn't seem all that good.
>>
>>15611899
From what I've seen (0079, IBO, December Sky) I might say yes, but on a premise: in its all substance this series is so shonen oriented that you need to have a real thing for real robot to start with. Yes, of course it has higher and lower points from show to show but its not the kind of war story you can expect to fully enjoy as an "adult" viewer, mainly for its lack of comprehensible strategy plans and relatable tropes when it comes to war stories structure.
I would give a try on thunderbolt (series not sucky movie mashup) or MSG/Z and see where it goes from there.
>>
>>15618229
That sounds like an edgy teenager's idea of adulthood.
