To be fair, G Gundam is a completely different show than ordinary Gundam, in that it's a Super Robot show instead of a Real Robot one. It was made by the same guy who made Giant Robo for crying out loud.

It did, however, get me watching the original Mobile Suit Gundam from 1979. It's a strange show, more like Star Trek with war in place of exploration. There's only one Gundam and the series focuses more on the skeleton crew of the warship it's stationed on to defend itself from nigh on constant enemy attacks while they desperately try to reach Federation airspace. At the same time you still see obvious holdovers from it's Super Robot roots, such as combining mechs, the Gundam Hammer, and it's extremely young protagonist. Amuro Ray if effectively a child soldier, but at the same time the series goes out of it's way to show the effects it's having on him. I guess these are just them figuring out what worked in the story they were trying to tell. It did, after all, invent the Real Robot sub-genra.

The meta reason?

The Japaneses idolize high-school, and consequently high-school age, as the greatest years of their lives before being thrown into the soul destroying machine that is the Japaneses workforce.

Hunter X Hunter finally got good after 70 chapters. I knew Yoshihiro Togashi wouldn't let me down.

I'm halfway through Overman King Gainer in order to wash the taste of Gundam SEED Destiny out of my head. I mean, I know Tomino could get hit with a bout of depression and decide to just kill off every character but I don't think he's going to.

I've been playing super robot wars and I want to see if I can watch every show featured therein.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

I'll be honest...that went completely over my head. But it did make a nice whistling sound as it did so..

[Gentleman Vaultboy]

All you need to get out of that is that, barring some weird character development, Overman King Gainer is awesome and Gundam SEED Destiny is reprehensible.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

I'll take your word on that and look into Overman King Gainer

[Philote]

This looks bad

[Celadon's Penultimate]

Ooh! Looks cool!

[Tsubasa & Wen Tien]

According to the anime club at my university, it's apparently interesting and good.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

 I can't get over the fact that you guys have an anime club.

*sigh* Some folks have all the luck.
