--When I first read a bad review on Gundam 00 I just blame it on that otaku's tastes, assuming that he was more inclined to harem anime crap than mecha series... The guy insisted that the series just looked like Gundam Wing but a few "updates" to make the plot more actual, aka the terrorism menace.
Now, after eight episodes of this "thing" I'm kinda disappointed because I have to admit that the guy was right and he got it just after watching the first episode. WHY DID IT TAKE ME SO LONG D: ?
So, in the end I was right. You can't trust a Gundam series anymore.
But I guess that I'll keep watching it, just to know how it ends (Just as Gundam Wing, I guess XD --I don't want Graham to die ;_; He's my favourite character!!). Well, unless it'll turn in something copmpletely unbearable, which is more likely to happen!


You know that you think it everytime you see him.

I am very uncomfortable with all those characters.
First of all, Louise and Saji. I guess that they should rappresent the civil point of view of the series, but they are just bothering. Same goes for that Chinese girl and her bodyguard (also if he's hot).
And it's really true that the characters look like Gundam Wings' XD !!
Ritst--I MEAN, Setsuna = Heero (I'm the grumpy, cold protagonist! I'm focused on my mission so stop bothering me with your friendship needs!)
Lockon = Duo (I'm the sociable moron with pretty hair :D !)
Tiera = Wufei (I'm distant and dedicated!) + antisocial tendencies (that make everyone more charming by default) --But I can't see him having a fight with Graham in the end...
Halleluja = Trowa (I do nothing relevant the whole time but you know that I'm trouble) --So I guess that at certain point he'll betray Celestial Being to join-- probably the Human Reform thingie.
Graham = A mix of Treize and Zechs... In fact I like him.
But there's also an exception, Sumeragi. She's obviously Misato from Evangelion.

Anyway in this last episode I really needed the first meeting between the obvious fated persons (Relena and Heero):


MEET SETSUNA F. SEIEI, YOUR AVERAGE KURD.
No, really. --How did she know? They met before and I didn't noticed it?
She spotted him running on a motorbike (or something like that) and she knew that he comes from her same country--?


--DON'T GO! PLEASE, LET ME DISCUSS WITH YOU ABOUT THE ECONOMIC/SOCIAL SITUATION OF MY COUNTRY, YOU STRANGER!
She really reminded me of Relena in that scene X'D

Then, as Marina (...) realized that Setsuna was some kind of soldier she said:

LOL, you were the one who picked him up, you stupid bitch!!!

Setsuna, impressed by Marina's ATTENTION BITCH moments, decides to reveal her his true identity, showing off.
At this point I was hoping for Tiera to pop-up randomly and kill Setsuna as he promised in the previous episode.


This is Marina's reaction:

--Accidentally, I was in the same mood after watching this episode.

Well, I guess that you laughed enough for now... From now on I'm going to watch this series on Veoh, there's no need for me to waste my HD space with such things >_>

Ora puoi capire anche tu il delicato concetto che sta dietro la frase "DAMN YOU SUNRISE".

Non dirlo a me, Mai Otome Zwei era anche più ridicolo...
PS: mh Meister non ti ricorda qualcosa?

Sì, mi ricorda il Jagermeister, bevanda di cui gli sceneggiatori di Gundam 00 hanno sicuramente abusato durante la stesura dei dialoghi.

Ma MaiOtome se non altro non è una serie pretenziosa e presuntuosa come Gundam. E' orribile, una narrazione orribile!

Mh a parte quello, ti doveva ricordare le Meister di Mai otome, vestite a volte come gundam, in una serie che citava pesantemente gundam.
Ma la controcitazione è... ò _o

XD Ma certo!
Il paragone con Jagermeister è più divertente, però!

If you wanna bore yourself to no end go ahead >_>
Sparkling engines (and Kouga's character design XD) are not enough to content me.

No harm in trying. If I get bored then I'll just stop watching XD

(my younger bro thought it was Loveless at first XD)

Honestly, there are way too many characters without a meaning in the hystory.. You got so bored in listening to their opinions about war and terrorism XD
Gundam 00 looked interesting in the first episodes but now it's just talking to itself--
But of course you can give a try. Let me know what you'll think about it XD

I liked Gundam Wing. Why are they trying to "Do it right" or whatever the hell they're trying to do. This character stereotype recycling is bullshit. If they get smart, they'll take the old plot and do something new and exciting with it, but other than different character backgrounds, I don't see too much happening. There are too many mundane characters to follow. If anything, this is Gundam Wing, the Yaoi Edition. As if the first wasn't yaoi enough? Now everyone's prettier and gayer. There's no way Tieria will ever get a girlfriend. Come on! He wears pink sweaters, looks hotter than any potential girlfriend and rides around in a fat Gundam! He needs a good hot dicking to take care of his pissy attitude.

She's missing the beauty of GW. We know this.

-Smirk-

Needs a good dicking like Fei needs one from Heero? Cause Maxwell is too kind and obnoxious? He needs a challenge? XD!

LOL, Tiera just goes around whining about how soft are his colleagues and saying "cool" things like "LOL, humanity is worthless!" or "I'll kill you!" that make the average fangirl happy.
Obviously he's the most popular character, not only because he looks like a fucking girl as Forchy pointed out (LOL, the pink cardigan X'DD) but alo because he's EBIL!

I watched Gundam Wing until episode 23 or such, then I got bored.
Unfortunately it's not so yaoi :/ The pilots talk to each other just to plan attacks or threaten at each other when someone makes a mistake and there isn't a real development... I guess they wanted to focus on the political/social aspects of the whole conflict to make people think and figure how things go in the world but it's just getting boring.

YA GOTTA watch episode 25 and on! That's when it gets good. You'd LOVE episode 28. Its all Trieze and how he sees things and whatnot. So you might wanna at least try that episode out.

Hallelujah and Trowa even have the same fucking hairstyle aughhh

I'm gonna try to watch the rest tonight. I got the Gundam Wing impression after watching the first episode too, and got very bored halfway through the second episode :| (the only reason i'm doing this is so i can cosplay lockon ahhaha)

And people "wonder" *why* I sticck with the older school Gundam? Becuase they screwed it up when they started with Gundam W and crap. 0083 and ZZ and such were the cream of the crop. These recent ones, its like sunrise is digging down into the mold rather then becoing more of a Silver shining beam across the heavens.
