Gosh I’ve always been obsessed with Gundam and I hardly find people that like the anime.
Deviant Kitty because they’re uncultured swine lmao
Eagle1oh7 tried to make someone watch it and they said it was boring. Felt like I got shot right in the heart
Kotaro Takabayashi Mobile Suit Gundam Wing It was the first I watched as a kid
Kotaro Takabayashi said it dragged too much. Meaning too much talking not enough action. But I told him sometimes it starts out slow but it captures you. I failed to convert him into the world of gundam.
@@m00n_d0ll try something packed with action and much less talking like Thunderbolt
Gundam is one of 3 main reasons why I watch Anime, Gundam is a legacy that can never be taken away love bro 🇬🇧
love the content bro
THANK U ZACK!!!!!
Tim Lyu could you please do a Pokemon timeline? Just the show though
Same
Being the very start of all real robot anime (and possibily off brand (Sayla bathing scene)), it really isn't a thing anyone could possibly take away.
Hope everyone is keeping safe during these hard times but we all know even myself as a 29 ye old Dad that Anime can help us so much during these times, love people 🇬🇧💪🏽👊🏽💜
Gundam wing’s pilot names are kind of hilarious. It’s Heero (he’s the hero, so the name fits), Duo (as in 2), Trowa (as in 3), Quatre (as in 4), and then just Wu Fei.
well, wu is 5 so
wu (5 in Traditional Chinese, according to Google translate. Correct me if I'm wrong.)
fei (five. Come on. It gives away)
Fun fact: In Stardust Memory, the Japanese voice actor of Anavel Gato is by Akio Otsuka (大塚 明夫), and Eiphar Synapse is Chikao Ohtsuka (大塚 周夫).
Chikao Ohtsuka actually is Akio Otsuka's father, and Akio Otsuka is also the Japanese voice actor of Solid Snake from Metal Gear Solid, Chikao Ohtsuka casted the old Big Boss in MGS4.
The conflicts of nuclear weapon between father and son never ends.
Anavel Gato:
"War.... war has changed...."
Why do their last names have differences in spelling if they're related?
@@-PVL93- their family name is Otsuka
Was he the Japanese voice actor from Xehanort (Kingdom Hearts series)?
@@Menaceblue3 It's no longer about nations, ideologies, or ethnicity. It's an endless series of proxy battles, fought by mercenaries and machines. War--and it's consumption of life--has become a well-oiled machine. War has changed. ID-tagged soldiers carry ID-tagged weapons, use ID-tagged gear. Nanomachines inside their bodies enhance and regulate their abilities. Genetic control, information control, emotion control, battlefield control…everything is monitored and kept under control. War…has changed. The age of deterrence has become the age of control, all in the name of averting catastrophe from weapons of mass destruction, and he who controls the battlefield, controls history. War…has changed. When the battlefield is under total control, war becomes routine.
calling the Nu Gundam "V Gundam" and Gundam 00 (Double-O) as "Gundam Zero-Zero" will trigger people's rage, lol.
Vust Valeo it even spells “double O” on the title card 😩
And theres already a V Gundam its Victory Gundam and V2 Gundam.
I haven't even finished watching the video and paused it because I wanted to comment this exact thing.
Also "Zero zero seventy-nine"
He keeps switching between 00 and Zero Zero. It's weird

“You’re a good man, thank you”
Weird, he did order of release instead of grouping into where they fit together and where it's separate universe
Where the hell is g gundam
Ty, Héroe sin capa 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I hope they make a prequel of iron blooded orphans. I’m interested to see barbatos fighting again in the calamity war. My favorite gundam and gundam series by far.
There is a mobile game sequel
@@alejandrosegato671 its more of what happened between season 1 and 2
Meh this Gundam is too basic to even be in the top 15
@@mrdeafter The overcomplicated ones like Unicorn are far inferior to the originals. The best mobile suit will always be the zaku 2/commander type
Anybody that says IBO is they're favorite needs to watch more Shows cause IBO is flashy and the designs are cool but it's straight bottom of the barrel overall, it's just simplified as fuck to be as marketable as possible and not much else.
G Gundam was my favorite Gundam show as a kid because of the unique designs and the new way they operated the mobile suits. Sad to know now not everybody felt the same way. Seeing some of those suits brought back amazing memories of trips to Toys R Us 😂
it does require a lot of getting used to vs the usual gundam series, i liken it more to street fighter with mecha
I am an Indian and they showed that our people use snakes pretty much everywhere as if we live still in Newton's era. God, I gate G Gundam.
The majority of Gundam fans are gatekeeping incels. There kinda like the veteran soulsborne fans lonely socially inept and their personality is solely Gundam
G Gundam is my all-time favorite Gundam series .
@@rushpatriot2866 Thats honestly really sad. These franchises were made to unite nerds and introverts into social communities open to any one interested but instead we just divide our selves even more based on what kind of robot toy you like better
I love Endless Waltz. I watch it every Christmas. It is my Christmas tradition movie(since it takes place at Christmas, it's a Christmas movie. Fight me)
The most garbage gundam movie next to 00. Might as well like the live action G Saviour that needs to be forgotten.
@@chaikagaz Calling something "garbage" in an edgy tone does not validate an otherwise subjective opinion. It also does not amount to constructive crticism. Had you critiqued it objectively and logically using factual and statistical basis, you may have had a case for it not being a good movie. But no, Gundam 00 the movie is a good movie based on expert opinion and anime critics.
Wing Zero Custom and Deathscythe Hell are my all-time fav MS.
@@chaikagaz gundam 00 movie will not be considered as a garbage to u if you really watched and understand the 1st and 2nd season of Gundam 00...the movie serves well as a sequel to the both seasons.....so basically you are not aware of the "first dialogue" that happened in the movie and has been stated multiple times in the season 2.
@Waifu Kun he said if u watched the show youd get the movie, nothing about rewatching it. I watched it once and got it maybe it'll come to you overtime. Name drop CCC is kind of a cop out bandwagon move.
Need a new designation for some of y'all:
SLOWTYPES
I was never able to get into the Gundam series when I was a kid, seeing this now, it looks like I was missing out.
Same here
same I didnt get into it until Mobile suit gundam the Origin
Yes you did
Watch The Origin movies. After that, watch Thunderbolt and Unicorn.
It's never too late to start! We have so. much. gundam.
for those coming back to this video now, The Witch From Mercury is stand-alone and if you ask me it is absolutely amazing
That's actually what I was trying to figure out, lol. Thanks.
this is why i clicked. tryna see where seed, ibo, 00, and witch fit in. looks like I've gone my whole like unaware of the main uc timeline lol. looks like I'll be avoiding it too. it looks oversaturated.
@3XZDgg not really, there's a main backbone of shows and movies, and everything else are just fun little side additions that you don't need to see to get the full story. It's where some of the best gundam content is. Writing it all off as something as undefined as "oversaturated" does a really disservice to the universe. I swear, each show is more concerned with telling an understandable and complete story than filling out gaps in the lore, especially the series earlier in the timeline
Man I started with G Gundam and have watched the series at least 15-20 times, and Master Asia's powers were hilarious. Straight up took out 100s of Zakus with Domons headband, which made zero sense and I love it. Then I watched endless waltz, 00, and unicorn and realized that G Gundam universe was so much peaceful than the UC arcs.
Oh my god, this is a Godsend content in the era of self quarantine!
Krzysztof Dudek ENJOY KRZYSZTOF!!!!!!
Ah yes, the Universal Quarantine timeline.

I like that the factions aren't just the good guys vs the bad guys. the real world isn't that simple, so having some grey areas, and some layers makes it more interesting.
Greetings from Gundam 00 Season 1
The real villain is the military industrial complex
That's one of the many reasons why I love most of the Gundam Anime, for that depth and complexity. Not really a fan of the kid versions . I prefer more serious Gundam series.
I still think the original Gundam is one of the best pieces of pop culture media Japan has ever produced, and is a major, if not the major reason, Japanese pop culture is a major player in the world today. It was one of the first original anime to gain a large adult following. Countless creators were inspired to become creators by it. Countless people became engineers due to Gundam.
Even to this day the story holds up wonderfully. There are so many themes touched upon and explored in sensible and realistic manner. Its characters to this day are iconic and Char is an absolute legend of a character. Even in a head-to-head comparision between Star Wars and Gundam Star Wars comes off as hopelessly simplistic and juvenile.
Gundam shows scenes like competency not immediately translating into leadership ability with Mirai struggling to take over for Bright. Gundam shows what it feels like to become estranged from your parents due to growing up in completely different circumstances. It has interesting and unexpected character development like Amuro estranging himself from Fraw Bow due to his rising esteem and responsibilites. It has a tragic and interesting Romance in Lalah and Char. Kai and Miharu's story were excellently directed.
Yeah, everybody knows that the original Gundam was not the first serious anime or the first one with mature themes, but it executed so many different ones so wonderfully, with good art, good direction, iconic voice acting, iconic art.
To this day I still think Gundam is hopelessly underrated in the West and it's insane to see that for a long time even some of the mediocre OVAs like Stardust Memory were more popular here
Seed was the first anime I watched all the way through when I was 11. It still holds a place in my heart and I own all of the DVDs. I've seen MANY of the other Gundams series but nothing hits me as much as Seed and Destiny
I knew the Gundam franchise was expansive but damn it's bigger than I realized.
He missed some stuff.
I haven’t watched Gundam in a while, but how different can it be from what I remember? *watching Gundam Build Divers* ...Are those animal people?
Lmao Divers has VR which is why there is animal people
Lmao I’m in the same boat as you, I’m gonna watch that SD show and The Origin tho
well
Try watching Gundam Wing or Gundam unicorn and then we'll talk more Mecha
Watching the original series was pretty fun. When build fighters came out it was decent . Then build divers was just like, wtf
no one:
NOT A SINGLE SOUL:
Gundam: You want another time? "No" welp here's 20 more time lines, do you want more? "Jesus christ make it stop" hAhAHa nEW tIMe LiNEs!!!
alternate timelines provide a way to tell Gundam stories without having to work within the confines of the Universal Century.
The fact that he knows what Gihren's Greed is warms this cold, dead heart.
Same here bro
seeing how he misprononced nu gundam, Kamille bidan, and some other major super popular thing...
he's reading a script bro which anyone can do, gundam fans or not
@@Shakukirai You can mispronounce something without reading a script. You can know something intimately and put it in a script so you say what you mean to say clearly.
Basically your argument holds no water other than a wild assumption that you cannot know.
@@Gustav_Kuriga idk man but someone who knows about Gihren's Greed shouldn'tve butchered Qant [t] and Nu Gundam names lol
@@Shakukirai I have several hundred hours in Gihren's Greed Menace of Axis V and I couldn't tell you how to pronounce Qant. If you think you're such a special know it all snowflake though, I can direct you to the guys doing the english fan patch for the game. I'm sure they'd LOVE to hear all about your perfect pronunciations.
Just a small mistake, Amuro's suit isn't called the V gundam, it's "Nu", V gundam comes later
Rising.x .flame
Seriously. The amount of mispronunciations this guy makes me want to punch him in the mouth. 😑
@@MahoganyBlack woah calm down badass
That's not even a V. It's a ν, the 13th greek letter.
This is NOT a small mistake. It's a colossal blunder.
Guys I'm just trying to let him down gently, I know it's not a small mistake
to be honest I never got into Gundam until I watched Mobile Suit Gundam : the Origin and I thought it was pretty good , so I might have missed out alot , maybe I need to start appreciating it even more
YOU CAN CHECK OUT SOME GUNDAM TITLES ON CRUNCHYROLL DOT COM (used car salesmen voice)
Tim Lyu Thank you I appreciated and I will go to Crunchyroll
Or you can watch it on Gundam here on TH-cam for free at there offical page GundamInfo
The Origin is good because the original series is good, so if you can deal with some old animation (cleans up well in the remasters), I'd say check out the original series or at least the trilogy movies that did a great job of condensing the story for an arguably better experience
I used to love Gundam seed destiny, gundam meister and The one with the unicorn gundam but after finishing Barbatos Gundam, damn it hit me... Even if Barbatos wasnt that strong of a gundam, because of its pilot Mika it became so powerful that it exceed it's limit... With a good background story and an incredible ending.. I'm in love with barbatos gundam atm.. I also love the looks of it
you loved the neding? you sadist?
@@ahmedhamdi9526 yeah it was sad, but it completed the themes of the show well, and emotionally connected well. I love it cause it told a great story, even if im sad while watching it.
bro that ending destroyed me inside, Amazing serie,, but too sad though 😪,,,,,
Dude iron blooded orphans goes soooo hard, i dont know if i like it more then seed and destiny but if anything its equal to them but jeeez its so dark and such an amazing story
Wait what do you mean “because of its pilot Mika”? I thought Mika was the strongest to use the Gundam to its fullest. Am I missing something on how Mika should’ve used the Gundam when compared to the other main characters in the franchise?
Thank you so much Tim Lyu for making this ongoing series manageable and understandable for new viewers like myself! I am new to anime and am loving the Gundam stories and universe so far!
same here, but going to have to watch this vid more than once, I'm' still pretty confused, lol
Turn A Gundam is my personal favorite. The relaxed, somewhat melancholic but hopefull tone, extremly likeable main character, great supporting cast (Harry Ord is still my favorite Char clone, or Quattro clone if being specific), beautiful backgrounds, interesting setting inspired by early 20th century America, unique mecha design (rest in peace Syd Mead) and some of the best goddamn music in not just Gundam, but in all of anime (thank you Yoko Kanno) and touching, powerful story all come together to create wonderful and extremly humane tale of war and growing past our bloodstained history.
Ditto
All of a sudden everyone's a fan of Turn A after Mead dies. **FAKE FAN ALERT**
Ngl I dig Harry Ord's hair and design
@@redactedz6146 My man has some real good taste in glasses. Also his pyjamas were just amazing.
@lenni marjomaa - you saved me from writing basically the exact same thing. The only other anime I own multiple soundtrack albums for Is Ghost In the Shell: SAC, which of course is more Yoko Kanno audio bliss.
And we'd be remiss if we didn't mention Corin Nander - a man that's fought Gundams for possibly thousands of years.
I'm a simple man. I see Crunchyroll upload Gundam related content. I see Tim hosting it, I click. Oh and it's an hour long? *grabs some popcorn* Issa Vibe.
I didn't even see it was an hour long. I was hooked after I saw Tim
Iron-Blooded Orphans was the first Gundam I felt connected to. Just everything about it would bring newcomers into loving the Gundam series. There's a lot of Gundams to sift through and I probably will never get the chance to watch them all in their entirety but IBO has so much more to offer.
Iron-Blooded Orphans was the first i watched in a very long time the last gundam show i watched was gundam wing
Also Mobile Fighter G Gundam can act as a good entry point for someone fond of Super Robots.
Problem with that is that IBO creates drama for it's fans with the annoyingly overplayed death of 'biscuit' and wiping out the protagonists with next to zero antagonist resolution I.E. dropping rods of god on them from orbit while they rack on a nondescript amount of 'trash-mob' kills, not to mention the 'weird' relationship(s) Mikazuki has which takes you straight out of immersion.
Also IBO creates the nuance that the series is based on whole universes which are sparsely explored or connected with. We're given the Barbatos Gundam but we never have any closure about it's capabilities or even it's odd 'spirit' that seems to communicate with Mikazuki. How come the other Gundam didn't talk with Akihiro? Hell, why didn't we even 'use' the new Gundam which apparently has an extreme amount of firepower?! Ironic much?!
I think Thunderbolt would be best for introducing a new audience. We learn about the main factions and how both can be right/wrong simultaneously. The combat is raw, unfiltered, immersive and real. It's amazing how it's not a Gundam show in respect to how similar it would be to other a-tier media but it's also Gundam is essence. How a person responds to Thunderbolt would be a good indication of another series they might like. Gundam 00 if they like Gundams. 08th mobile suit for the combat. Origins for the atmosphere. Etc. IBO is too controversial to be able to recommend it outright as it depends on previous Gundam exposure for a lot of it's 'setup'. It would be confusing being exposed to Gundams and Alaya Vijnaya with no knowledge of what they actually mean in the universe.
27 year old here remember seeing clips of some gundam on adult swim as a baby, no clue on the actual story but so far IBO has been a banger with the gundam battles
I like the one where they try and create peace through terrorism it was the closest to real life.
Being a teen in late 90s / early 2000s was the best especially because it was when Toonami was at its best and of course it was how I was introduced to Gundam Wing. Gundam Wing all the way
A Gundam video over an hour long? Am I in heaven?
NO! YOU ARE ON CRUNCHYROLL TH-cam DOT COM!!!
Yes
Long time Gundam fan here.
1. Universal Century is high art. Greatest of classic storytelling ever.
2. Correction Number 1: The Gundam in Char's Counterattack is called the "Nu Gundam", but they spell it with that stylized V symbol.
3. Correction 2: 00 and Gunpla Builders are not connected in anyway.
Edit: Thanks to a comment, the V is the Greek letter for Nu.
Also, I can't wait for the rest of the UC Next 100 Project. That's what I'm looking forward to the most with the franchise.
it's not a stylized "V" its literally the Greek letter Nu
@@Griff00 Thank you.
Yes
Let’s be real we all waiting for the second part of Iron Blooded *ORPHANS*
No I just went here for gundam wing
Nah man that shit was retarded. All the characters were mentally disabled children. Even the adults were stupid.
@@albertogarcia305 well damn
@@zaccheusmckibbens7293 I really love gundam man but I just couldn't stand any of the characters, any of the writing tropes, I couldn't stand anything about the show. If orga cared about his little friends he'd realize he was getting them all killed and he would've dropped them off somewhere where they would've had a chance at a better life. Mikazuki was the only character that made sense going along with orga.
Nah ibo was dog shit.
Tim, you're a godsend. I've been looking for a primer for the Gundam series/timeline for the last 5 years, with nobody being able to consistently answer "which Gundam series should I start with?" Or "Which series are important to understanding the overall theme and story of Gundam?" And here you are, going above and beyond both of those question. Thank you so much.
Gundam Wing was my first Introduction to Gundam and still has some of my most favorite designs for the Gundams and Mobile Suits
Mines was G gundam. It cracked me up every country had a gundam
IBO 🔥
mine was Gundam00....
Mine was gundam exia
Really appreciate a big platform like Crunchyroll doing this. Gundam needs more exposure in the West
You're one cool dude, thank you for making this! 😊 Always been a bug bear that life happened and I didn't keep up to date with Gundam. Love your charisma and enthusiasms , great work! Hope you do more!
I started with Iron Blooded Orphans and really loved it. After building some Gunplas, watchting the new Witch from Mercury anime, i also started the journey from the beginning, having finished the 79 Gundam and being in the middle of Zeta right now. It will still take a lot of time until i will finish all of it but i look forward to it XD It is just so much, with series having 40-50 episodes each and tons of ovas and movies :P
"We'll Always Have Sydney"
Universal Century:what the cinnamon toast fuck is this
"Vee-Gundam"
"Gundam Zero-Zero"
You haven't watched these, have you?
Edit: Find me one instance where Setsuna F Seiei calls it ‘Zero Zero Gundam’ or ‘Zero Zero Quanta’ and I’ll edit this comment to apologize and admit you’re right.
jocax188723 I think he was doing this on purpose
"Ju- day- oh" there's no way he's watched them
"Londo ball"
His video is still entertaining though XD
Cut him some slack, "Double o" is really hard to say, im surprised i was able to spell it , lol
0083 is still by far my favorite I've seen. Short, simple and straight to the point. Love it.
I appreciate all the work that went into compiling all of this.
20:20 funny you mention Metal Gear. Cause Gato's Japanese VA is the VA for Snake in Japanese!
Also Berine from 0080* in the Dub was voiced by David Hayter
Another fun fact. Kojima really loves Gundam!
*0080
@@hitachicordoba thanks for the correction
Metal Gear Solid makes reference to Minovsky Particles as well supposedly
@@Xeno-The-Wanderer there areas were the radar literally get jammed.
And now I need to watch 0080 dubed
Then there's me wondering why I'm watching this, I dont even watch gundum.
AY THAT DONT MATTER! THANKS FOR WATCHIN BENJAMIN!!!!!!!
Don't bother. Watch Escaflowne or Gunbuster instead.
Onii-chan is watching you Yooo Escaflowne is lowkey fire ngl
You can start with any of the alternate universe Gundam shows as they are part of their own story. There are many Mecha anime out there with their own unique stories that many shonen anime take inspiration from.
as shown by the chart at the end, the franchise is deceptive, it is huungous but has many main entry points to get inside. you can watch any of those timelines in any order however I believe the general consensus would be to watch 00, wing or Iron Blooded Orphans as one's first. those 3 are fairly well recieved with little detracting from them, others are watchable though carry parts the fandom is not very fond of either through association or within
Thank you so much for this! Been googling for years now to just grasp everything you just shared.
recent fan of the series, thank you for being so informative! loved the timeline chart you did as well
I fall into that 2000 Gundam Wing fan group. I was 10 years old and I looked forward to watching Toonami everyday after school. Wish I had kept my old figures.
I like that the original Gundam had a reason for some random kid using the giant robot. His father designed it in a top secret base where the whole family had to live. He was around technology constantly while growing up. There was an instruction manual. And finally, the gundam had a learning computer that would aide the pilot.
The rest of the series and their copycats never gave such a good reason.
2 years late.. i mean
a good chunk of (main)gundam shows feature Protagonists who already trained to pilot Mobile suits(Wing, 00, Witch(arguably age iirc, way to long since i watched AGE) or in for example IBOs case used a interface that was designed to make piloting mobile suits simpler while also being a child soldier used to piloting mobile weapons).
the Newtypes that pilot gundams out of nowhere are a bit of an "you cant fault it really"(so Zeta, ZZ iirc, and unicorn(and Banagher at least had acess to mini mobile suits so at least the basics where familiar(also its also the whole "dad build it in secret base" thing again) as an example, and iirc After war gundam X as well)
SEED, well SEED is wonky, except Kira yamato every other Mobile suit/gundam pilot was trained to pilot mobile suits or similiar machinery, and Kira falls into the "newtype excuse".
overall more shows then not give a pretty valid reasson for the pilot being able to pilot the suit
@@weberman173 My favorite part of SEED is when Kira pilots a new Gundam and he has to install Windows XP first before using it.
@@spartanK42 im not defending seed, seed has its "interesting" faults(the whole "rewriting an entire OS while its running" bit at the start always makes me laugh regardless of how often i see it)
but it did what it wanted to do pretty well(be basicaly a "new" version of 0079) seed destiny on the other hand
@@weberman173 Kamile and Banagher studied the basics of mobile suits from their schools, specially for Banagher, but is implied that Kamile was involved with that too in his school. Judau you can say that he knows some basic stuff because of the machines he operates to salvage parts in space.
But yeah, I don't think is the "Kids pilots mobile suits out of nowhere" is much worse in AU than UC shows.
i did mention banagher having access to the mini mobile suits @@CoracaoAcidental98
Gundam Seed and Gundam Seed Destiny were 2 of my favourite animes when I was 11 (2007). Haven't really watched the series since but I've been thinking of revisiting it. Thanks for filling us in on the lore!
I’m just gettin into gundam. I’ve always wanted to jump in but was unable to find the original so I started with Mobile Fighter G Gundam and loved it. I’m asking for everyone’s best recommendations please as I’d love to get more into it
Gundam : The Origin
Gundam original series.
Iron blooded Orphans
Gundam Thunderbolt
Me to got into Gundam I couple weeks ago and watched unicorn and loved it
Gundam 00
Be warned that Fighter G Gundam is probably the most different out of the entire Gundam universe. I'm glad you loved it, and you may love other Gundam series, but sadly, your love of G Gundam will be in no way indicative if you'll love any of the other series. Gundam UC is short, with only 7 episodes on Netflix and probably a good place to start with little investment required.
seed and destiny are fucking amazing
Social Distancing and this was the best use of 69+ minutes of my life... besides, Tim is hysterical in his delivery. Loved the EVA video.... now (sigh.... this 52 year old nerd REALLY wants Bandai to find the masters to HM L.GAIM and release them on BD then we can see a video on that!!!) Stay Safe everyone and remember... if you're trapped at home with them... you more than likely care about them so be kind and patient with your peeps and furbabies in this challenging time! PEACE!
Thats all you have to say about IBO, Iron Blooded Orphans is by far my most favorite Gundam series thus far
The thing is newer fans love it older ones don't like it as much.
@@Demicleas Older Gundam fans always hate the new stuff. UC fans hate G Gundam and Wing. Those fans hate Seed and Double-O. Everyone hates Build Fighter. It’s just vocal fans on the internet.
Personally I started with Wing but enjoy almost all Gundam. The fact that they take big swings with different series is some of the appeal
@@nilus2k >everyone hates build fighters
Let me fix that for you, everyone hates build fighters TRY and is tired of build series being milked. And what UC fans you talking to hating OO? Most I’ve seen where either “season 1 was good but S2 was eh” or “I was never really into it”．IBO is much the same
@@user-pj1ec5om5g My point is people on the internet hate everything and they all have one "perfect" Gundam series and all the rest are "terrible" Personally I don't listen to any of it
@@user-pj1ec5om5g you talk about milking and not mention UC? UC out milk all of them. It’s like if the MCU was poorly explained. Too many connected bs dampened by dumb vocabulary jargon
Niiiiiiiice I always wanted to watch the gundam series in order and to just know more about gundam In general,awesome video man great way to start my 2021 hopefully I get to watch all these in the future I’m going to make it a goal. Great full I found this you did the timeline some justice lmaoo I even took a screenshot of the lil timeline wall you did lol.
Lmao I saw G gundam and all I heard was “have you seen this man?”
*holds up vague photo*
no one:
NO ONE:
Tim: Bring back that bull gundam
That became fused with power rangers and Voltron /super samurai
Man, I JUST finished IBO and atm, Barbatos is definitely my favorite Gundam design.
That waist doe...
@Siti Nurulhuda Md Yunus
Thats nothing if you want character death i suggest watching zeta gundam as its like game of thrones, characters will die left and right.
@@sitinurulhudamdyunus5683 and biscuit!!
Somehow i see IBO as a 100 yer sequel to Wing. The Alaya-Vinjana a successorto the Zero. Heero amd Trowa the original space debris.
Irritable Bowel Order and automatic teller machine?
Gundam Wing remains to be my favourite by far. I was Eight when Wing hit Toonami. The show blew me away, and one night when I was sick I stayed on my living room couch and I saw the Show uncut!
When I told my friends at school about the "after dark Gundam episodes alot of them called me a liar, one of my friends also saw the uncut episodes and he must have been pretty clued in because he jokingly refered to these as the "Moonrise episodes" which in highnsight never made sense.
That first run of Gundam Wing on the Toonami's Midnight Run was excellent, and got me into anime.
And I dig pretty much all the gundam series. They tend to be well written, with good character development, and amazing action scenes.
(Though the ultra realism of FMP design and physics does hold a place in my heart.)
Don't you dare give me hope for a crossbone Gundam adaptation, I can't handle it
At NYCC November '19, when asked about UC NEXT and whether Crossbone would occur... Tomino smiled I can't talk, but it could happen. The room exploded.
We’d need a remake of F91, the “movie” doesn’t do that story justice.
Would rather they not what with all the silly shit Hasegawa likes to shove in.
Me, a MASSIVE Gundam See Astray fan: Haha, at least you were given hope.
If they really go with this 100 project, a remake of f91 and crossbone adaption are really a possibility. Also, a remake of the one year war is probably on the table too
“And I see you guy who just is watching a playlist of gihrens greed cutscenes” SIR EXCUSE ME THIS IS A *PERSONAL ATTACK AGAINST ME WITH AGGRESSIVE PINPOINT ACCURACY* lol but forreal fantastic and bold video haha thanks for this!! Let’s get more old school Gundam shows on crunch roll now! Including the OG and Zeta! Pleease
I sat through the entire video on one sitting, thats how much Gundam i love! thank you Tim Lyu!!
The realism attack of the story surely add a flavor to the anime and it truly hooked me up with it lit 🔥
This explains why AGE characters look like they're from Inazuma eleven/ Yokai watch etc.
RalfsStuff Yeah, Level 5
Its cause studio ghibli
My love for anime all start from the gundam franchise. It's good to see it getting a spot light after the years it's been around.
This dude is awesome. Love his explanation vids.
I love how zakus get their own category like they are so iconic
Rick Doms rightfully feeling left out
And Zaku-clones and look alikes!
"History of All Gundam."
Misses Twilight Axis.
Me: Ok.
Just forget about it.
Even the G-Saviour ...
If you blink, you'll miss it.
@@daichiken7880 that one doesn't exist!!!!
@@firesabers 🤣
I love this series so fucking much and I hate that not many people knows it.
Pretty sure everyone knows what it is. I mean probably not the newest generation but even gen z knows what it is. Ironicly I became aware of it's existence threw a show about alien frogs trying and failing to invade earth heh.
Zeta Gundam is my favorite. I'd watch the series any time, any day.
Well damn. That’s a lot to take in . I came on in on Mobile Suit Gundom Wing . Didn’t know they had so many
Thank you for providing this. I'm a huge Gundam fan that lost time to indulge as I've gotten older. This has provided so much info on stories I need to catch up on.
OG Gundam really need a remake! Would love to watch it again with modern graphics.
Gundam The Origin?
@@GloomGaiGar ya mobile suit gundam the origin,
@@veyolaski4324 I meant 1979 Gundam, Origin and "OG" (meaning Original) are two different things 😅
They'll crucify you for saying that. If the Gundams don't look like flying bricks and McDonald's toys they consider it bad. The Gundam fans are just as bad as my hero fans they get heated if you don't agree with them. They pretty much want the og series rehashed over and over again with old ass animation
Really informative! Good vid man!
Gundam 00 series story was lovely and the gundam design and engine was amazing too.
Premium content on my birthday none the less.
(As of this posting)
Awesome guys. And thank you😎👍🏾
Noata Kun HAPPY BIRth NOATA-KUN
Happy Birthday Ta-kun
@@amfram thank you😸
You and Mobile Suit Gundam have the same birthday!!! Happy birthday!
@@CrunchyrollInsideAnime day just gets better and better😤👌🏾
Thank you all guys 💗
G Gundam is ironically one of the best Gundam series out there. It doesn't have that militaristic feel and sci-fi but it's such a good story and martial artist fans instantly like this one.
holy shit thank you, ive been building gundam kits for the last year but have been reluctant to get into the show, because of how many there are, but now knowing that they are all scattered takes so much pressure off
This is just overall a great vid. Never scene gundam and prolly never will dive this deep into it but I still watched it all
This video is amazing. Really brings me back to my childhood watching the shows and trying to build the model kits.
Keep up the awesome work!!
Gundam is always epic.
Amazing and love the recap as well
I first watched this video when I bought my first RX kit. Now I have 35 kits and counting and I've seen IBO plus the original 1980's show. God I love this universe.
NEAT! Now I can introduce friends to Gundam without sounding too crazy myself!
Just a few nitpicks on pronunciation some might've pointed out already:
- 10:25 ZZ's protagonist, Judau i typically hear pronounced as 'Joo-Dao' not 'Juday-oh'
- 12:47 Amuro's mobile suit in Counterattack: Nu Gundam, not V (misread from the Greek symbol v, but V Gundam is associated with Victory Gundam!)
- 44:38 Gundam 00, supposed to be 'Double-O' was fine on its first mention,
- 51:51 but was incorrectly referred to as 'Zero Zero' multiple times on the Trailblazer bit
- 53:30 Qan[T], I realize is pronounced awkwardly for comedic relief too xD but is known as the 'Quanta'.
Otherwise, I love this video! Thank you Tim Lyu, for a wonderful representation on the multiple animated timelines so far. Loud round of applause from Gundam & Gunpla fans worldwide!
and it is Kamille BIDAN, not BIDEN!
bruh you're really gonna nitpick on THIS man for pronunciation?
This was an effort worthy of commendation. Having seen THE ENTIRE 'Canon'* meta-franchise up until late 2016, it was fun to have a nice, long look back over the shoulder at allll that had transpired since the beginning. Took me about 4 straight years (2009-2013) to watch the bulk of it, but MOST of it was well worth the watch. Oddly enough, one of my favorite memories of that marathon was streaming the DUB of Zeta Gundam on Crunchyroll before it disappeared, with the same voice cast from 0079, so that was a nice bit of added continuity. (*-Canon meaning no SD series, skip the retconning Zeta Gundam compilation movies, and banish all thoughts of G-Saviour (which I'm surprised you didn't mention, being part of the UC timeline).)
For your NEXT challenge, Tim: Explain the Girai Family Tree as mentioned in the Tenchi meta-franchise. Or each creator's version of canon series for said franchise. Should take about the same runtime, I think...
I have been waiting like over 30 years for this overview!! You are the man!! This is literally a public service to the global mech -otaku heads -super appreciate you!!
this video is perfect for anyone hoping to get an idea of whats going on in the franchise. gundam lore is a lot to wrap ones head around at first.
I remember me being a kid, watching the cartoonish Gundam. I loved it, but didn't know the name of the series. Then I moved to an European country, where Anime wasn't on TV, and now I've finally found the Gundam I've been searching for the last 3 years
Would it be a Universal Century in-joke if I said "We'll always have Sydney?"
LOOOOOOL
To soon
That is terrible and I love it.
Sydney got gundam’d
Sydney got hit with a big, bla- grey, colony.
I loved Gundam AGE, especially with its storytelling. Gundam 00, The Cosmic Era Series, and Unicorn are my favorites. I'm currently enjoying The Witch from Mercury. I'm also looking forward to more about Hathaway.
Gundam Wing is still my favourite to this day
i still remember saving up all my school lunch allowance just to buy one of the gundam model at a time
i've already collected the entire HG set
building Gundam is my favourite hobby before i moved on to building PC lmfao
Surprised we haven't gotten a series about the Ms-Girl trend yet.
They explored that a little in build fighters tri web ovas
idk about divers
Unfortunately the MS Girl doesn't translate well into gunpla until Build Divers line Gunpla with Mobile Doll Serah and May.
@@eddwert9867 Does the mobile dolls count?
Oh the pronunciations of so much in this is driving me nuts, it's a good video at least lol
Edit: Actually just got to the part of F91 and the information given on how it came to be a bit inaccurate to say the least. It was planned to be a full fledged series and only became a film after staff disputes. They had about 13 episodes penned and compiled them into a film. Not at all that it was planned to be 13 episodes and a film. That was a bit interesting to completely miss and change, I'm just going to guess this was recorded all in one go and somewhere along the line he mixed things up.
Thanks man! Now I fully understand the gundams timeline, where I struggle from the very beginning.
Heavyarms is and will always be my favorite, the concept of just put guns and more guns even if you dont have ammo is way to fun
His pronunciations for names are all over the place. Both frustrating and funny 😩😑😂
Bro! I let Judeau go, and Londo Ball was a bit rough but V Gundam sent me...
Its like he hasn't even watched any.
@@Revelation6_7-8 he's doing it on purpose pretty sure.
He’s probably Canadian...
You kno ppl do that for comments right?
I would like to see Advance of Zeta get an anime
and Sentinel
@@hitachicordoba Sadl, a Gundam Sentinel anime is impossible due to the rights to the story being owned by a separate company.
It's a courtroom drama. It might get something like Thunderbolt but not a full anime sadly.
Crossbone never
Gundam 0079 with Origin graphical remake never
Great compilation!
Thank you so much, I've been looking for mobile fighter G Gundam for years
You forgot to explain Gundam OO Season II
Gundam?!
DID SOMEONE SAY GUNDAM?!?!?
GilgaGunplaSensei GUNNNNNDAMMMM!!
I came for her a five minute explanation of Gundam as a franchise but got stuck in a 2 hour deep dive yet very well done summary of the ENTIRE franchise
Dude....that was amazing.
