I remember watching this AMV back when I was in high school. Definitely a classic. It'd be really neat to see a remake of this using the footage on the Blu-ray edition.
this episode has my favorite part from the series (though its not in the amv) when shiro is in the suit and is about to be crushed he yells "I WANT TO LIVE!"
Ripping off your own MS's arm to smack the enemy... and here I thought Norris Packard was the only true badass of EPIC proportions in this series. Oh yeah. I forgot. This is 08th MS Team, where everyone's a badass in some way or another. And I mean that in the best possible way.
omg this movie is awesome, exellent work, great music choice as well, i also like the gouf better, that thing kicks some serious ass! Although its not only the machine that counts, the pilot also has to be a pretty mean bad-ass killing machine as well, i loved that part where he mercilessly stabbed the tank with the sword and oil ( or was it blood? or both?) spilled all over him! Awesome work.
it was given the new model number RX-79[G]Ez8 (Extra zero-8)because of the spare parts used. and was capable of slightly higer performance then the standard ground gundam. Its the only gundam of its kind.
Norris was originally just trying to take out the Guntanks, and didn't find out that Shiro loved Aina until right before Shiro bashed him with his Gundam's arm (which is why his sword is lowered, because of his surprise at hearing it).
Awsome amv was awsome. I am a gundam freak. i love all the serieses except 0080 but i digress. Awsome AMV, it has a sertain quality that i love about it
Yeah the lead up to the fight was the zeke's were on their last leg and needed to escape. They were extremely low on supplies and the gouf had been fighting continuously before hand. My only thought would be the energy that should have been used in the sword was used to power the elector shock instead.
So, it's been going on two years since I actually posted this thing, and 57000 views later I finally get around to following up with it. I'm in the process of acquiring some video software that'll let me start editing again. I've got a couple different projects in mind; another 08th MS Team video, as well as a Transformers idea that's been bouncing around in my head for a while. Should have an update soon.
A job well done, Deimir. While I should say you should do some more videos, it would be hard to beat the song and video coincidences you told me about in this one. (Wewt 100th)
8th MS team was the most realistic of all the gundams, they also made it so that aces weren't all over the place as such when Norris finally made his debut in a gouf custom they let it be known how aces really stand out. 8th ms team was refreshing as the main character wasn't invincible, sure he was a good pilot but still not really a true ace
The only reason Shiro smoked him was cuz a) he had a lapse in sanity when he TORE OFF HIS OWN ARM and started beating on Norris, a move that took him by surprise, b) the clip skipped about 3 min of them whaling on each other, and c) Norris was going for the Guntank and not Shiro, since his mission was to drop all three of them. He succeeded, even though it killed him.
@Manofaction0 if i recal he didnt have one, or he was caught up in the moment of declaring his love for whats her name, that he forgot about it and noticed his arm was useless so lets put it to use ^^
Yes, but an MS-07B from orginal series (1979) was using BOTH heat sword and heat whip (diffrent models than used by B3). So should be ther place for energy pack in sword handle? Whip is connected to generator in MS, but sword not, and laser sword should also have some kind of battery, becouse they are autonomus (the battery should have bigger capacity that tat used in heat weapons).
No. Ez-8 is just a rebuilt Gundam Ground Type. Remember when Shiro tackled the Mobile Armour with it and it basicly got ripped apart? The Mechanics just rebuilt it with random parts and went with that. Kinda like how that other Gundam Ground Type gets a GM Ground Type head.
lol yeah but Heero did fight a army of mobile dolls in a leo but quatra did help him after he was almost killed =) oh and nouing did drop Heero's buster cannon. And shiro didn't fight a gundam in a ball it was a zaku. very very different.
@sonofthewolf2 Gundams gets more badass as they make new ones except for Gundam 00. Gouf Custom is like somewhat unrealistic Gouf turned in to a mobile suit that is slightly more realistic. I like both federation and Zeon. It is cool have they have somewhat uncommon,unique design that is totally different from each other.
ya so do i an most of the epis are hear but the verry last 2 or 3 witch sucks balls becus when toonamie aired them when i was a wee lil lad in middle school back befor 9-11 and all that crap like 2000 or 1999 i saw this anime and all i whanted was my verry own gundom and ever sins iv loved the gundom searies and try to watch it when ever i can. OH and NICI AMV 10 OUT OF 10
LOL Shiro and Heero r equally crazy but Heero was trained to be crazy but not throw his feelings away. So Heero is acctually better than Shiro in most ways but Shiro admitted his love for Aina while Heero tried to hide his love. =)
Yes, I know they didn't technically die. But it was very unrealistic how they surrvived that. However, that doesnt really matter when it comes to anime lol
TRue... but shiro was a luck crazy person... Heero was more of the guy who was made to win... example... Heero didn't go after a gundam in a ball... Heero jumps out of buildings... so yeah... differnt crazy ness..
Why his heat sword was turned OFF? Lack of energy or some kind of malfunction? If it was turned ON it would slice enemies like hot knife slice butter (literally). If you think that MS-07B3 Gouf Custom is Badass, look for MS-07F Gouf Hunter, made for CQC and Guerrilla warfare. Sieg Zeon!
“Tell Lady Aina I have found the place where I am to die” - Norris Packard
I remember watching this AMV back when I was in high school. Definitely a classic. It'd be really neat to see a remake of this using the footage on the Blu-ray edition.
Its been more thanks 11 years since i watch it, and i still coming back to watch it
Glad it stayed up. I remember youtube telling me it was copyrighted a few weeks ago. So irritating.
TH-cam didn't even tell me it had been restored. I'm glad to see it back too!
this episode has my favorite part from the series (though its not in the amv) when shiro is in the suit and is about to be crushed he yells "I WANT TO LIVE!"
this is one of my fav gundam amvs of all time . great song and great gundam series to use .
that is one of the best gundam fight scenes ever, good job on the vid:)
HAIL ZEON!!!!!!!!!
This is THE BEST 8TH MS Team AMV that I have EVER watched. UBER UBER Props to the creator
Such an epic compilation; also one of my oldest favorites on youtube.
Thank you!!!
Found this again after 16 years today
No, he wasn't trying to end the fight.. he was stalling for time so they could retreat.
It's uber awesome ... just kinda sucks that it's only like 14 episodes
Ripping off your own MS's arm to smack the enemy... and here I thought Norris Packard was the only true badass of EPIC proportions in this series. Oh yeah. I forgot. This is 08th MS Team, where everyone's a badass in some way or another. And I mean that in the best possible way.
"This is no Zaku boy, no Zaku!"
It's definitely the most "realistic" of all the Gundam series I've seen. There's no mystical Newtypes or whatever the kids are calling them nowadays.
All hail the mighty Gouf Custom. The best of the best. ZIEG ZEON
I never quite got why he ripped off his own arm BEFORE using his beam saber. Did he forget about it or somethin?
Something like that he just got so pissed off he forgot about his weapon.
Wow the only other person who could pilot a Gouf
that good is Ramba Ral but he died. (i believe it was suicide cause he blew himself up)
this is the part of the movie where i fell in love with the gouf which is the most bad ass mobile zuit for the zeon at the time
Out of the whole series that was the only DVD I bought. One of the best giant robot fight scenes ever! Gouf Custom FTW!
this was my favirate gundam series i wach the dvd set all the time and this song really goes well with the series.
Best Gundam AMV I've seen by far. Nice choice using the 08th MS team(Best of the Gundam Series). Nice job, can't wait for more.
oh wow damn that was the best gundam amv iv seen! great song, great battle!
I gotta say the song really fits Noris pawned those Gundams. My personal favorite episode of 08th Ms Team. Hail Zeon. ;]
im a big gundam fan and didnt think Gundam 08th MS Team was gonna be any good because is so old but the battle you have is real nice .
had to watch it again shyt hella dope . made me go to netflix and put all gundam dvds on top of list . good job
omg this movie is awesome, exellent work, great music choice as well, i also like the gouf better, that thing kicks some serious ass! Although its not only the machine that counts, the pilot also has to be a pretty mean bad-ass killing machine as well, i loved that part where he mercilessly stabbed the tank with the sword and oil ( or was it blood? or both?) spilled all over him! Awesome work.
Norris was a really Ace badass. taking on a Fed team alone and generally kicking ass.
this gundam series is th ebest out of all of them
@Hakuru15 Well, it did win in the end, and killed the Apsalus III with all the style of the God Gundam. EZ FINGER!
This is my favorite Gundam series cause its the only one that has realistic battles.
3:34 "You sir i challenge you to a dual"
single handedly 1 of the best vids i eva freakin seen
it was given the new model number RX-79[G]Ez8 (Extra zero-8)because of the spare parts used. and was capable of slightly higer performance then the standard ground gundam. Its the only gundam of its kind.
The Shuddering Mountain, Part 1. Episode 10, if I'm remembering correctly.
Great video, havent seen this series in a long time its still my favroite one though.
Damn stright, 8th MS team kicks ass. It cant be beat.
this is my fav gundam 08th amvs 5/5
Dude, that was pretty fucking hardcore! I just wish the sound was better, I'd be blasting this thing like crazy!
Norris was originally just trying to take out the Guntanks, and didn't find out that Shiro loved Aina until right before Shiro bashed him with his Gundam's arm (which is why his sword is lowered, because of his surprise at hearing it).
Awsome amv was awsome. I am a gundam freak. i love all the serieses except 0080 but i digress. Awsome AMV, it has a sertain quality that i love about it
Very nice job, well paced to the song and good ending ^^.
The vid is great and goes well with the music.
Shiro is the best gundam pilot next to Heero Yuy from Gundam Wing
Yeah the lead up to the fight was the zeke's were on their last leg and needed to escape. They were extremely low on supplies and the gouf had been fighting continuously before hand. My only thought would be the energy that should have been used in the sword was used to power the elector shock instead.
@TrowaAllelujah its the gouf, G-O-U-F, got it memorized
So, it's been going on two years since I actually posted this thing, and 57000 views later I finally get around to following up with it.

awesome,that was my favorite duel in UC
The people who made anime in the 80s 90s and 2000s would have a thing for the big robots. Well, this is one fight between men inside robots.
Thanks all for the comments and ratings. I like the video as well, which is why I'm currently watching the 300-meg hi-res version. ;)
I loved this show when it was aired on toonami, too bad they took it off the air though, very good anime, best of the Gundan series I believe.
A job well done, Deimir. While I should say you should do some more videos, it would be hard to beat the song and video coincidences you told me about in this one. (Wewt 100th)
Yea Norris is one of the Few Aces they have in this show - unlike 0079 where rather then monster of the week it was Ace of the Week.
Well, the arm would have just gotten in the way aways.
Notice the Gouf isn't using his heat saber? he's just swinging it around. It's not heated up.. if it were the fight would've been over long ago.
8th MS team was the most realistic of all the gundams, they also made it so that aces weren't all over the place as such when Norris finally made his debut in a gouf custom they let it be known how aces really stand out. 8th ms team was refreshing as the main character wasn't invincible, sure he was a good pilot but still not really a true ace
On the cheap, I think a prototype Ez-8 is possible for under a hundred mil USD. The biggest hurdle is deciding on a power system.
I have to agree here...but Heero is super Human... Shiro is KRAZY...
Norris had a coustom Gouf. But It looked like he had a heat saber if he had activated it Shiro would have been cut down.
The GOUF custom kicks ass
The only reason Shiro smoked him was cuz a) he had a lapse in sanity when he TORE OFF HIS OWN ARM and started beating on Norris, a move that took him by surprise, b) the clip skipped about 3 min of them whaling on each other, and c) Norris was going for the Guntank and not Shiro, since his mission was to drop all three of them. He succeeded, even though it killed him.
the old ones are the best, when gundams looked like gundams.
is gundam 08th ms team more warlike or is it also like the superpowered gundams.
I love when he rips his arm off and smacks the other guy.
I love this series.. XD
@Manofaction0 if i recal he didnt have one, or he was caught up in the moment of declaring his love for whats her name, that he forgot about it and noticed his arm was useless so lets put it to use ^^
It was basicly a test bed for them to try something different. So it seems like its a prototype.
Yes, but an MS-07B from orginal series (1979) was using BOTH heat sword and heat whip (diffrent models than used by B3). So should be ther place for energy pack in sword handle? Whip is connected to generator in MS, but sword not, and laser sword should also have some kind of battery, becouse they are autonomus (the battery should have bigger capacity that tat used in heat weapons).

well yea norris was pretty badass..
and a nice guy he cared about aina so yea he had a soft side
This is good keep it up
I loled at him pulling his arm off and using it as a club. Doesn't he have a beam sword?
all hail the gouf custom the most badass mech u will see before u die!!
lol yeah but Heero did fight a army of mobile dolls in a leo but quatra did help him after he was almost killed =) oh and nouing did drop Heero's buster cannon.
And shiro didn't fight a gundam in a ball it was a zaku. very very different.
@sonofthewolf2 Gundams gets more badass as they make new ones except for Gundam 00. Gouf Custom is like somewhat unrealistic Gouf turned in to a mobile suit that is slightly more realistic. I like both federation and Zeon. It is cool have they have somewhat uncommon,unique design that is totally different from each other.
Shiro doesn't die buddy. When his gundam blewup he wasn't inside. They show him and Aina at the very end.
you know i think both of the mobile suits won fairly
yeah your right about that... but still a ball is about the same as a car to a tank...and the car has a hand gun to fight with...
ya so do i an most of the epis are hear but the verry last 2 or 3 witch sucks balls becus when toonamie aired them when i was a wee lil lad in middle school back befor 9-11 and all that crap like 2000 or 1999 i saw this anime and all i whanted was my verry own gundom and ever sins iv loved the gundom searies and try to watch it when ever i can. OH and NICI AMV 10 OUT OF 10
thanks man
true in every way
LOL Shiro and Heero r equally crazy but Heero was trained to be crazy but not throw his feelings away. So Heero is acctually better than Shiro in most ways but Shiro admitted his love for Aina while Heero tried to hide his love. =)
They weren't prototypes. They were mass produced Ground gundams. Ez-8 was the only prototype.
dude this band existed long before the word screamo even existed.
does anyone know if this whole series has action like this ?
Nice clippage. V2.0 should have some bumpin' trance or Ministry. Somthing riffy; vocals are distracting.
good video
The video didn't really keep pace with the music.
And the Gouf Custom only owns because an Ace like Norris Packard piloted it.
also ne1 know where i can watch episodes of 08th ms?
2 words...fucking amazing
Lol, they both died in the end so it really didn't matter much that Shiro won.
Yes, I know they didn't technically die. But it was very unrealistic how they surrvived that. However, that doesnt really matter when it comes to anime lol
that would involve cross demential travel!!?
GOOD
just wait, Zero will show up eventually and own them all! lolz
he still got the guncannon.....
what episode is this?
TRue... but shiro was a luck crazy person... Heero was more of the guy who was made to win... example... Heero didn't go after a gundam in a ball... Heero jumps out of buildings... so yeah... differnt crazy ness..
you know you want to e-mail the hi-res version...
Why his heat sword was turned OFF? Lack of energy or some kind of malfunction? If it was turned ON it would slice enemies like hot knife slice butter (literally).
If you think that MS-07B3 Gouf Custom is Badass, look for MS-07F Gouf Hunter, made for CQC and Guerrilla warfare.
Sieg Zeon!
this is movie gundam?????
