Dropped everything when I saw this in my suggestions, really glad to see this video up!
Hope you enjoyed it!
@@WeAINTseenITREACTIONS Gundam wing got me into the mobile suit gundam franchise , you should show you’re wife the old Cartoon Network promo commercial of Gundam Wing
@@websurferblue I was the same, But Turn A just hits different. Sorta like a cross between of gundam an ghibli.
@@WeAINTseenITREACTIONS react
every gundam first launch 1979-2023 please
Believe it or not the original gundam actually holds up really well and is still worth watching
Yep. It can be jarring from an animation perspective because let’s be honest, nothing is animated like that anymore. But from a story perspective, it’s still an incredible story.
Fancy seeing you here! Any hopes for this month's SRW stream?
@@SatoKure Nah, I'm not expecting news on the next SRW game until spring 2023 at the earliest
@@BaoZakeruga Fair
Based. Original Zeta Double Zeta and CCA are pure kino
Fun fact: Mobile Suit Gundam 00 is the 1st Gundam anime to be animated in HD. Because of that, not only the animation is beautiful and crisp, it also holds up even after more than a decade (since 2007).
Also, when you mentioned one of the singer sounds like the ones for Brave Shine, it is the same singer; Aimer.
No wonder it looks so good for its age! And shout-out to Aimer. She always lend her voice to legendary openings.
@@WeAINTseenITREACTIONS Fun fact abour RE: I AM and the Gundam Unicorn series.
Unlike other series in the list, which was build as a traditional anime series (25 mins per episode, 25-50 episode per series). Gundam Unicorn is originally made to be a film, 7 episodes, about 1 hor per episode (except for episode 6-7 which is hour and a half per episode).
If you look at the animation quality, Unicorn has one of the best animation quality among this list. This is due to it's originally be a film, with episode 6-7 first aired in the cinema.
For the song, Aimer actually did 2 songs for Unicorn. RE: I AM and Star Ring Child. RE: I AM is actually an ending song for episode 6 (the scene at the beginning of the song comes from the ending of that episode) and Star Ring Child is the ending song for episode 7. If i remember it right, Unicorn have different ending songs per episode, which the last two being the most popular due to Aimer's popularity.
@@WeAINTseenITREACTIONS the one who had purple hair is dude not a girl
Gundam 00 holds up until halfway into the second season where it gets worse and worse and then ends with "Dinosaur aliens on jupiter, after we defeated the triangle alien robits" (seriously) But they really outdid themselves with the visuals in some "big moment" scenes that put anime produced now a days to shame.
RE: I AM and Star Ring Child have english version
I don't always enjoy reaction videos, but damn, you guys are amazing! I was just vibin with you guys the whole time. Really hoping you two get more into Gundam!
Glad and thankful that you checked us and enjoyed it! We just got a request to watch Iron Blooded Orphans on Patreon so we'll be diving into that soon!
Fun fact(s) for Turn A Gundam and G in Reconguista, the character designer for both series is Akira Yasuda (Akiman) who is well known for his work on the Street Fighter franchise. The Turn A Gundam was designed by Syd Mead who has worked on movies like Blade runner, Tron, Aliens ect...
It's always nice to see people react to the Gundam franchise. I love Gundam so much! ❤️❤️❤️
You guys should react to the Yu-Gi-Oh japanese openings, they're so good too all of them, from season 0 to rush duel
Good job going through this! Always refreshing to see someone reacting to gundam openings
The Origin was indeed a celebration(gundam's 40th anniversary), it adapted part of the manga Origin that greatly expands 0079's story. Also, Char wasnt just in those 2 series. The reason he's so iconic is cuz his life, and the people connected to him are spread across nearly every title in the entire UC Timeline. Even in 0096 his presence is still felt and feared by Earth lol
The ZZ Gundam opening… they showed the evolution of man.. and then when they showed Amuro they were showing the evolution of the newtype.. from Amuro to Kamille to Judau (the main protagonist of ZZ Gundam)
Also.. 0080 while cheery is easily one of the more brutal and depressing Gundam entries.
A love Zeta and ZZ but man Judau being the apex of human evolution is just OMG NO lol
Amuro to Kimille to Judau is devolution
@@HaohmaruHL LMFAO THIIIIS!! Absolutely right you two haha, couldn't even make it past 3 episodes of ZZ man such whiplash after Zetas ending....not a fan of Judau
Mad props as this is a serious dedication to watch all of these. So many awesome memories and some tears are welling up.
35:25 you have good eyes, "animation looks very unique" because Turn A Gundam was the final show to be hand drawn, so its quality was drawn from as much experience from that field of work as possible. The gundam shows that came later all had computer-aided graphics.
Fact: The Unicord Gundam opening at 01:02:27 is a song made by one of THE BEST composers in Japan: Hiroyuki Sawano, this guy is a genius composing music... He also did the OST and openings for Blood orphans too
I dont think he did the openings for ibo it was mwam, blue ecount and other artists
Turn A Gundam is easily the most unjustly slept on series in the entire Gundam pantheon, and that is a goddamned tragedy. Turn A and 00 are, in my opinion, among the best the franchise has to offer, and are able to be watched without prior knowledge.
Turn A is set in a sort of Victorian era analogue, and features late 1800s early 1900s tech and aesthetics and all the mobile suits (giant robots) are found underground, buried by civilizations long past. Turn A in general feels like what would happen if Studio Ghibli (Ponyo, Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke) made a Gundam show, and is just as well written. Well worth a watch.
(Also if more people buy the Turn A Gundam blu-rays and merch, it might prompt Sunrise to make more stuff exploring Turn A's setting, and I'm all about that shit.)
I've been holding off watching it because all the Gundam designs in Turn A were made by some western dude and to a mecha fan with 30+ experience of watching anime they are some of the ugliest and laziest mecha designs I've ever seen in my life.
@@HaohmaruHL That Western dude happens to be Syd Mead, the mechanical and environmental designer for movies like Aliens, Blade Runner, and Tron.
Turn A Gundam was one of the last things he worked on before he died. Put some respect on his name.
@@HaohmaruHL As a lifetime mecha fan who is over 35 years old (And I do literally mean lifetime) I cannot disagree more with you. While the Mobile Suits of Turn A are very different than other Gundam series, they are by no means ugly or lazy. Also Syd Mead isn't just "some western dude".
If they're the ugliest and laziest you've seen in your life you haven't seen much mecha. There are worse.
None of this is to touch on the importance of Turn A to Tomino himself.
While you don't necessarily need to watch Turn A without prior knowledge, the ending carries so much more weight if you do.
Honestly, I don't think Turn A needs to be explored for the most part. It was a well told story as is and I would hate for Bandai to damage Turn A's setting. Bandai's recent decisions, including all of the monstrosity that is the Build series, I really don't have much confidence in their handling of the IP.
@@mechanomics2649 white doll is just a naked mannequin with mustache and on heels. Any detail it has is just some random lines chaotically drawn all over its limbs, chest and weapons. Other designs there look just like a bunch of inflated balloons. I wish I could unsee it forever.
It's like they invited him to participate int he process during a drunk party but to everyone's shock he actually ended up showing up next morning, without realizing that it was just a Japanese way of politely refusing someone. So they couldn't turn him down and just rolled with it as "I guess, it can't be helped".
Even those metal chickens you see in western media they tend to call "mecha" aren't that bad in comparison.
YOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I haven't seen ya in like 10 years bro, you got jacked over the years!
I love how you two are vibin' to MIO's vocals when Stardust Memory opening songs came in.
Maaaan watching this hit me with so many memories. I've been a Gundam fanatic my whole life, seen every series to date
Finally found new people reacting to Gundam Openings~
1:04:40 that's because it is! both openings for Gundam Unicorn were composed by _Hiroyuki Sawano_ and sung by _Aimer,_ Japanese Ellie Goulding 😂
OO and Iron Blooded Orphan are some of the most depressed theme. It so good for mature viewers. Fun fact : All Build Fighters season are using tech to scan their model kits and control them. And Divers are about Isekai world that they enter.
don't forget victory Gundam
Divers ReRise is isekai, Divers is just Full Diver VR like in SAO
@@SatoKure forgot about VR stuff
That's sick! I'd love to build my own Gundam and use it in a battle simulator!
Universal century is grim and realistic. Victory gundam and OG gundam is part of it.
The smooth criminal guy actually has his own harem. Not kidding.
I believe it! 🤣
Gundam the origin openings try to give you a nostalgic and emotional feeling vibe as it is from the original gundam timeline.
The Build series' is two separate continuities, though they share the same theme: Ordinary Gundam fans battling out with Pimped-out versions of their favorite mechs.
Build Fighters has magic-ish particles that actually move the models themselves, while Build Divers is a VRMMO where the model is scanned and then you go into the game(which is why you can have the Wolf and Ferret guys and catgirls) and play with it there.
Both series do in fact have a time skip between the first and second series'. Six or seven years between Fighters and Try, and two years between Divers and Re: Rise.
Btw gunpla scanning tech is currently in the works there's alrdy been demos putting it into a game
Also if u didn't know there's 3 life size statues of Gundam in jp 1 can actually move around and another statue in Shanghai
Nintendo already beat them to it with their amiibo figures
I’m so glad you all reacted to Gundam openings and endings there all so good I don’t skip none I sub
Also fun fact, that weird looking mustached Gundam is called Turn A. Not only is it the most powerful mobile suit in the entire franchise, it's also one of the most powerful mechs in the entire giant mecha genre. The damn thing literally resets timelines
Loving that Zeta gundam reaction. It's always been one of my favorites
I appreciate you for actually compiling the openings yourself rather than just finding some half-assed playlist like other reactors. Props
Love you guys!
Witch from mercury is in fact first female lead. The Gundam she pilots is named Aerial.
In a way not the first when thinking about it. In 0080 war in the pocket one of the known characters is a female pilot that controls a Gundam called Alex though it was only for 2 eps out of 6 for the ova. The cgi series in early 2000s called ecole du ciel got a female lead but it was for Zeon side so no Gundam piloting.
Ecole Du Ciel's a manga, not a CGI anime no?
Also the first female main character that pilots a Gundam in the Gundam series I believe is Lath from Gundam SEED Astray Princess of the Sky
@@thepronoob4039 There's also Selene from Stargazer.
@@SatoKure oh yeah, can't believe I forgot that gem
@@thepronoob4039 how bout code fairy, mixing animation and gameplay. the entire main cast are zeon female pilots. anyways people are too obsessed with "firsts to do x" something being the first doesnt make it good, and most of the time it isn't really the first either
@@nathanperquin9910 yeah but the topic of discussion is first female leads so I didn't think Code Fairy would fit in.
In all seriousness Victory Gundam didn't do too hot because by the time of its release fans were getting burnt out from stories set in the Universal Century (the original timeline that Victory and every entry prior to it is set in). It also doesn't help that the show's creator, Yoshiyuki Tomino, was going through a massive series of depression with Bandai really forcing their corporate hands into the show to the point that the first five or so episodes are in the completely wrong order just so they could sell Victory Gundam kits faster.
Then, the icing on the cake is that Victory itself is very, *very*, dark. I mean, dark enough to the point they straight up bring back the Guillotine from the French Revolution and the main protagonist is literally holding his mother's decapitated head after a failed rescue attempt (you don't actually see the head, but you see him holding the helmet her head is inside).
This is why, following Victory, Gundam began to explore Alternative Universes with their own unique timelines.
I don't think I'll ever not be angry at Bandai for the slap in the face that the Build series are to Tomino. Fucking abhorrent.
the biggest problem with victory is that it tries to be dark, but it turns into borderline comical. i mean, one of the deaths that is seen as dramatic, is someone being run over by a building size wheel.
shit like that was too over the top.
@@mechanomics2649 Build Fighter and Build Fighters Tri are legit good n dun shows, can't speak for Dive or whatever tho. Hear THOSE are bad lol
gundam 00 is my absolute favorite. animation, soundtrack, storyline
So to clear up a misunderstanding and to answer a question both:
The original Mobile Suit Gundam follows the 15 year old Amuro Ray. He learns to pilot the Gundam because he is 1. A tech wiz and 2. Because he has the manual. Plus he just practices.
Zeta Gundam follows the 16 year old Kamille Bidan. He learns to pilot the MS due to being interested in mobile suit design from before the series starts, as well as both his parent developed the suit he first pilots in the series.
ZZ Gundam follows 14 year old Judau Ashta. He learns to pilot MS due to his “job” as a junker who uses a mobile worker to collect, or steal, Mobile Suits and their parts in order to sell as scrap.
Man, the G Gundam Mobile Fighter music and Gundam Wing music was so awesome. Actually, have to include Gundam Seed too lol.
19:50 - Most of the time, they're child soldiers. But with Gundam pilots, they have a tendency to be Newtypes or some other kind of prodigy depending on the setting.
The Build series are actually not about giant robots, but about the model kits. The Fighter ones are basically BattleBots with gunplas and the Diver ones are basically if you turned it into an MMO with full dive
I love how meta and selfaware the Build series is. It'd be a Gundam fan's dream to bring their custom kits to life haha.
@@WeAINTseenITREACTIONS There have been prototypes of gunpla-scanning tech able to bring a repainted RX-78-2 Gundam into a simple mission game where you fly around, but I don't think it's ready for a complete custom yet
@@WeAINTseenITREACTIONS they really did treat the first season of Build as a love letter to the entire franchise. There are so many nods to the many shows, manga, and even the live action movie and the history of the fandom. it is nuts how much they include in it. Strong recommend once you have a few more under your belt.
First episode of Gundam 0083 was indeed a "live" opening. Also note that the song was the OP of the actual opening in English.
Fun fact abour RE: I AM and the Gundam Unicorn series.
Unlike most other series in the list, which was build as a traditional anime series (25 mins per episode, 25-50 episode per series). Gundam Unicorn is originally made to be a film, 7 episodes, about 1 hour per episode (except for episode 6-7 which is hour and a half per episode).
If you look at the animation quality, Unicorn has one of the best animation quality among this list. This is due to it's originally be a film, with episode 6-7 first aired in the cinema.
For the song, Aimer actually did 2 songs for Unicorn. RE: I AM and Star Ring Child. RE: I AM is actually an ending song for episode 6 (the scene at the beginning of the song comes from the ending of that episode) and Star Ring Child is the ending song for episode 7. If i remember it right, Unicorn have different ending songs per episode, which the last two being the most popular due to Aimer's popularity at that time.
7:10 - Yeah, Char was sporting the shades during his tenure in Zeta.
this is a great reaction
Thanks! We're glad you enjoyed it! Hope we see you again fam.
6:59 have you seen this man, *holds up torn photo of Kyoji*
Shows picture to Schwarz Bruder
YOU GUYS EVEN LOOK THE SD ?!
Thankyou so much 💕
Yeah back to paradise isn’t actually the first opening of stardust memory but I’m glad you watched it because that scene is a fantastic top gun homage
"Is this really an opening?" - 0080 War in the Pocket & 0083 Stardust Memory have a unique opening for their first episodes which are "in episode" and then the episodes following have the normal montage style openings. This is to keep in theme with the fact that technically 0083 is a sequel to 0080, despite having a totally unattached story where their only connection is they happen in the same timeline. It's about their only linking factor.
If you haven't seen the 08th MS Team yet. Highly reccomend watching it. You don't need much context since it takes place in the One Year War of the Universal Cenury. But since it takes place on the ground war with more limited supplies and strategic battles, it's basically just Vietnam with giant robots and it's frikin awesome.
A short note about how much crisper Z Gundam looks compared to the original.
Z aired on 1985, SIX YEARS since the original first aired. Not to mention that the original basically had no budget due to it having horrible sales and viewer count when it first aired. But thanks to Bandai's model kits and later the movie re-edits being massive hits they got a lot more budget to do what they actually want to do.
32:01 it’s actually called After War Gundam X. But I guess you know it now if the time stamps are anything to go by! It’s actually a pretty good show! The first half is a bit slow but the second half is amazing!
4:11 - The original MS Gundam is still really good to this very day. I'd highly recommend it as a perfect starting point if you're just getting into UC Gundam.
Gundam always has high quality openings when the studio behind it is Sunrise owned by Bandai Namco you know they got all the money and connections they need
Most kid pilots in Gundam tend to be "Newtypes" basically evolved humans. (Some are something similar to Newtypes or are enhanced somehow)
and its often a combination of having instructions on hand at first, and a succeed or die situation. children are also really good at picking up skills while young
Doing the reaserch and all Dude you won not only a LIKE, but a Favourite Too.
Gundam is such an underrated franchise
"How did these boys learnt to pilot"
They either did, or die...
Yup thats all there is to it, also most of the time the Suit (the mech are called Mobile Suits) they use is extremely overpowered in their current generation, that helps them alot.
1:37:27 Thats the Build series that went DARK, or at least SERIOUS enough... Like actual high stakes.
Appreciate it fam! It took a lot of research and recording to make this 1 haha. I love how meta and selfaware the Build series is. It'd be a Gundam fan's dream to bring their custom kits to life haha.
23:09 - You know the main character is badass when he has the TITLE OF THE SHOW ON HIS SWORD!
Gundam Origins actually takes place before the original series. It tells the story of Char Aznable and his quest to get revenge for the murder of his father.
Hey just to let you know the opening at 1:25:37 are a more modern version of the original song "Beyond the time" composed by a different band.
If you can manage, I suggest watching the series from the start. If you guys can’t watch the original series, then there’s an abridged version that cuts up the OG show into 3 movies making easier to watch for casual viewers, it still holds up to this day
no, please, NEVER advise someone to start gundam from the original. sure, there are people that start there, but its not worth the risk. if you want someone to start gundam, tell them to start at either, war in the pocket or thunderbolt. after that, the best starting series are SEED, 00, IRON and Witch.
the original series is just too old. and the vast majority of people will just give up due to that. its better to come after watching other series, to see where it all started.
hell, zeta is a better starting point than the original. and zeta is still too old for most people.
@@marcosdheleno absolutely horrid taste
@@marcosdheleno also I’ve managed to get 5 people in real life interested in Gundam through the OG, how about you?
@@user-pj1ec5om5g around 5 with seed as well. 2 with thunderbolt.
@@marcosdheleno nice
Summary of a few series of Gundam for those interested:
G Gundam: A gundam version of old Hong Kong KungFu Movie
W Gundam: An Idol soap drama of Gundam
Gundam Seed: Another idol soap drama of Gundam
Gundam Seed Destiny: Chaotic plot forced be created because of the Gundam Seed hit
Gundam 00: Look the least like Gundam, but it is the most gundam series
Gundam Age: Kids graphic, adult content
Gundam Reconguista in G: the most underrated series
Gundam Iron-Blood Orphans: Best start, worse end (also the most realistic series with the most unrealistic ending )
Gundam Witch from Mercury: still broadcast, seems another idol soap drama (little spoiler: the main character was proposed twice by two different people in the first few episode)
Gundam build diver re:rise: the best series in recent years
G is not underrated. its just a mess. even worse than destiny. its probably the worst series in the franchise in therms of progression.
Holy shit, I think you're the first ones to do this!
yes that is the 0083: stardust memory OP the song is played over the initial character introductions
HAHAHAHA Gundam OPs are everywhere and sunrise is pretty cool with this stuff
I don't think Unicorn had any 3d character models in it. The mecha is a mix of 2d and 3d and they usually blend it well. Personally I didn't notice until almost 1/2way through. Still one of the best shows out there in terms of animation. I know it had a huge budget but still impressive.
Unicorn had CGI but it was high quality CGI.
It's like 2 hours so I totally understand if you guys are spent after that. It doesn't even include the movies.
1. Origin is set before the 1st Gundam series. The MC is Amuro's rival. It ends where the 1st series begins.
2. The current show, Witch from Mercury is actually quite good and the themes are classism, capitalist aristocracy & transhumanism which are hot-topics today.
FYI, the first 3 shows on the list are all set in the same universe called Universal Century. Afterwards, there were some other openings for other shows like Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory also set in that universe. All the others are all alternate universe Gundam shows, like the G Gundam ofc. Not only Universal Century is the original Gundam universe, but also for many other fans like myself, Universal Century shows are the best.
25:55 - The premise is that Earth was destroyed in the last war and almost everyone now lives in space colonies. Each nation had its own Gundam and every four years they'd have the Gundam Fights or Gundam Battles where the countries would go against one another on the ruined Earth and take the heads of opposing Gundams to win against them, and the last one left at the end would rule for the next four years.
11:58 - War in the Pocket is one of the most depressing Gundam series out there. Definitely not a good starting point for newcomers, but it is good for lore and an interesting allegory.
"Definitely not a good starting point for newcomers" its the complete opposite. war in the pocket is the best place to start. it is everything gundam is meant to be. the other series that is a great starter is thunderbolt.
its the best starting place because its both short but also complete. it requires no prior knowledge to the other series, and above all, it delivers the experience gundam is meant to offer.
I disagree. 0080 WitP is only six episodes long and packs every single relevant theme of Gundam as a whole into that runtime. If you vibe with the story 0080 tells, you’ll vibe with the rest of Gundam as a franchise. It is **the perfect litmus test** for Gundam.
@@EverydayLegend It still isn't a good starting point for newcomers, any more than Advent Children would be a good starting point for people that have never heard of Final Fantasy VII or starting Song of Ice and Fire at a later book having never heard of the series.
War in the Pocket is what is often referred to by the Gundam franchise itself as a side story. What this means is that the franchise considers it to be a secondary story that is an add-on to the main story (which in this case is 0079). In other words, without starting at 0079, you don't have context for most of what is going on in WitP, since the One Year War is basically over by that point. You don't know that the Zeon wiped out half of Earth's population. You don't know that the Zabi family were basically Neo Nazis. And you don't know that the Earth came close to being conquered by them (the only thing that saved the Federation was time). By the franchise's standards, 0079 is required reading for War in the Pocket.
War in the Pocket is very well done and is a great story, make no mistake. I recommend seeing it at some point. But to say this is the perfect starting point is to grossly misinform audiences that may be legitimately going into the franchise blind.
@@SBaby in what reality do you tell someone interested in seeing if Gundam is something they’ll like that they should consume all of 0079, whether that’s 20 hours of slow-paced 1979-era television show or 7ish hours of movies that fly through 20 hours worth of plot due to skipping a bunch of things they expected the audience to already understand, instead of simply handing them just shy of three hours worth of high-quality OVA that acts as a very standalone story set at the end of the OYW?
because let me tell you something, my sweet summer child, what you’re recommending is offering the new viewer in question to see if they like swimming by way of drowning them
also, advent children is a direct sequel that features the cast of the original work it sequelizes, therefore necessitating familiarity with the original source material, whereas 0080 has no such direct trappings other than the world circa 0079 and the events that play out during that time - I’ve gotten plenty of people converted into hardcore Gundam fans, just by giving them 0080 as their “try this, if you like it, you’re ready” starter
@@EverydayLegend 0079 is not THAT long. And honestly, it's not the only series you could start with (you could start with Wing, Iron Blooded Oprhans, or even SEED if you're willing to do two series', just to get an idea of what the overall franchise is like). That was just the example. And it's not going to 'drown' people. If anything, 0079 is probably one of the less complicated Gundam shows out there, because most of the story is told from the perspective of a small group of characters.
But you still get better context for what's going on in that era than you do with a side story that is better watched after already knowing what you're getting into.
Understand that you're talking about a franchise that's been around for over 40 years, has more episodes collectively than there are Pokemon, and contains multiple different continuities. You should accept in this case that the most efficient way to start is with a series, not a side story. That's how most people got into it. So I'd say it works more effectively.
But in all fairness, if I was going to recommend a side story as a starting point, I'd probably recommend 08th MS Team over War in the Pocket, just for that one freaking fight against the Gouf.
Hey, it's me again. The guy who told you to "get creative" with no offense really. By that I meant you need to look outside TH-cam when it comes to Gundam, and by God you did it! Congratulations! Credits where credits due: this video is by far the best "All Gundam OPs reaction" out there when it comes to completion. I mean, you did miss a couple of SD Gundam Brave Battle Warriors OPs but it's a minor thing. I salute your research before doing this. Right now, you hold the gold standard for "all Gundam OPs reaction". Great work & keep it up 👍
Thanks! Sorry for getting your words misconstrued. Occasionally we do have to go out of our way to record the openings ourselves such as Katekyo Hitman Reborn. We try our best to meet the viewers demands. So I'm happy that all of that time was well spent and you approve! Looking forward to seeing your comments on future reactions!
To be fair, Brave Battle Warriors only has an instrumental opening. "The Brave Legend" and "Justice • Carve a Legend" are ending themes.
@@PhailPhisherAgreed. Not only that but the Sangokuden Brave Battle Warriors OPs felt underwhelmingly short. Barely over 10 seconds. So I opted to just leave them out. I almost used the ending credits since they felt more like OPs. But this is a OP reaction video so I left out the show entirely.
I like the 80s and 90s songs. Thanks for reacting.
Gundam 00 best season
In gundam no one is safe. Even main characters do not have plot armor "Not counting Seed & Wing." Main characters can suffer death, vegetative states, lost limbs, "Nothing left but a pile of hamburger", and worse. Gundam tackles war in a realistic amd depressingly sad way.
My personal favorit series is Zeta and 08th ms team.
However the opening aka The winner from 0083 is so iconic. Although is was the opening playing that was the first few minutes of the actual anime. They do play the opening in that scene though so it definitely counts.
ash like snow (gundam 00 s1 op2) has been and still is my favorite op since it came out
I see why. Its really good!
The singer even made a english version
T.M. Revolution dose alot of the intro music to Gundma Seed they also did Naked Arms for Sengoku Basara.
Funny Fact, Matthew Erickson who voices Shin the man character of Gundam Seed Destiny also Voiced Van the main character from Zoids Chaotic Century which was the first ever animated series for Zoids, followed shortly by New Century Zero and Bit's voice actor Ian Cox voices the split personality super soldier gundam mister from gundam 00 as well as inuyasha.
I started watching The Witch from Mercury and I got so into Gundam! Then I started watching Gundam00 and finished season1 now. I am so depressed now and I need some brave to start watching season2
00 is my favorite! Season 2 is just as good if not better than season 1
@@kaijukiller3052 It is amazing anime, but it just hurts mentally🥹
Lockon!!!!!! Christina!!!!! Licht!!!!! Why?!
welcome to the gundam universe
@@Ray-rz8hb Your should watch gundam 00 trailbrazer final ending
The name of Gundam 00's song should be Daybreak's Bell instead of the artist's name haha
Gundam Build fighters and Build try are my Childhood
If you guys were to start Gundam, I would recommend Iron Blooded Orphans, its a good starting series that gets you into the world that is Gundam. IBO is the one you guys said you guys would watch out of all of them.
That's an awful place to start. People seem to confuse Popularity = Good. It's not. If you wanna get into gundam, watch 0079 first. Simple
@@SirStrikeFreedom IBO isn't perfect, it has its flaws. But for a starting point, its good.
Nah, 00 is a good start if you refuse to watch Mobile suit gundam because "it's too old"
IBO is too shonen-y for it's own good.
@@Kaimax61 THANK YOU! IBO Season 1 is amazing, seriously but with Season 2 it completely lost all of its identity and tried to be this edgy "Lol everyone dies" series . S2 sucked ass and people know it. It's a horrible way to introduce Gundam to someone as it will just have the negative effect. Seriously tries to be Victory Gundam with all it's deaths and fails completely.
0079, Zeta, CC (Skip ZZ, it's meh) then maybe Victory. If someone isn't sold on Gundam by then, then they never will be. (Not saying skip ZZ for good and everything else but someone new to Gundam should honestly stay away from the first half of ZZ)
Sorry for the essay but seeing people hype up IBO for new peeps just makes me feel serious pain
@@Kaimax61 I don't really see the shonen in it to be honest. More like depictions of difficult lifestyles, sadly kinda realistic at that
Tho I'd say the best Gundam series to start with is the one that strikes you the most with either its premise or 1st episode. The first one i believe will always be the one that spark curiosity the most tho. Maybe right now Witch too, since its still airing and is a fresh timeline.
Ah yes, Gundam.
Currently we have two categories:
UC (Universal Century)
AU (Alternate Universe)
UC is where the original Gundam came from and here's a guide for you about UC: it only gets worse.
AU are just series that happen in alternative universes that have nothing to do with UC or anything, standalone series and can be watched freely.
Here are some series from UC: Original Gundam, Z Gundam, ZZ Gundam, Gundam Char's Counter Attack, Gundam Unicorn, Gundam Thunderbolt, Gundam Hathaway's Flash.
And here are some from AU: Wing Gundam, G Gundam, Gundam Age, Gundam Seed, Gundam 00, Gundam IBO, Gundam Witch of the Mercury.
That depends entirely on what you mean by "worse".
technically we have 4, UC, AU, SD and Builders. as builders are kinda AU, but are so far removed its easier to just count them as their own separate thing. same with the SD line.
So to clarify what Origin is, its an adaptation of one part of the Origin manga which is a modernized version of the original series, they only adapted all the parts that are as it suggests, the origin of the One Year War (the events of the original series) and the backstory of Char Azanble (the original Antagonist)
Gundam build is about model kits motivated by a thing called Plavsky Particles and in the little arenas the models do take real damage.
Great reaction. Do you have a link to the original video? I've been trying to find a compilation with all the openings. Thanks again.
No unfortunately. We had to make this compilation ourselves.
@@WeAINTseenITREACTIONS Ah understood. If you ever upload it somewhere let me know I'd love to download it. Thanks again.
@@LVArcher will do. I'll probably upload it to another channel to avoid getting striked on this 1. I let you know if I do upload it.
@@LVArcher I’m trying to make a playlist of all them myself and some are near impossible to find. Weirdly enough stardust memory is hard to find despite them being pure bangers.
@@jagerzaku9160 Don't make playlist of Gundam OPs/EDs via YT. Chances are, some will get strike'd and it will put some holes in your playlist & no longer be complete.
Well to be fair Turn A was design by a french guy. Also it's the most powerful suit in all the series.
It is by far the most powerful and it isn't even remotely close. The Moonlight Butterfly nanomachines are no joke.
8:48 Amuro is in the series but I don't think he's the lead. Both Amuro(primary hero of the original) and Char(primary villain of the original) play big roles in the UC(Universal Century) series I believe from 0079(original Gundam) to 0093(Char's Counterattack) when I believe they both die(Amuro defeats Char then sacrifices himself to prevent Char's plan of dropping a large asteroid to Earth).
Great, I love Gundam
I like the way you said in Turn A Gundam that has a butterfly thrusters, you figure out exactly. Actually its a moonlight butterfly and those effects are nano machines that can destroy the whole entire civilization noted as a powerful gundam hinding on a mustache v fin
SD means "Super Deformed" and it is a common thing with mecha anime, the Super Robot Wars video games have the mecha done it in that style.
00 is the best gundam fallowed by iron blooded orphans
best? not really. if talking about popularity, SEED is superior, and its still the biggest seller just below the UC. its not for everyone, sure, but its the best starting point for non-gundam fans.
00 is still a solid series, and of course, it being preference, IBO is also solid, but is even more divisive than seed(due to its second season).
For U.C (universal century) series like 8th ms team, 0080: war in the pocket, 0083: stardust memory and thunderbolt follow bit of a theme.
War in the pocket was more on civilian life turn upside down when the tide of war reach their home. 8th ms team was 100% influenced by the Vietnam war. 0083 is Cold War focus + then following the Top Gun film popularity. Thunderbolt is the horrors of war and what it does to soldiers on both sides.
That is hardly unique to Thunderbolt and is honestly done a lot better by other UC series.
G Gundam was directed by Yasuhiro Imagawa, director of Giant Robo. He literally used his directing fee from Gundam to fund episodes of Giant Robo
so in g gundam the gundam fights are effectively martial arts tournaments, thus the movement system being based on pilot movement, Interestingly, in dynasty warriors gundam, the g gundam units are the only ones that have breathing animation wich is a nice touch
7:53 "I am a sucker for these old school songs." Thank Neil Sedaka for that.
Iron Blooded Orphans is my sh*t
least in the UC timeline the term GM stands for Gundam Mass Produced basically a cost effective stripped down version of the first Gundam prototype from the One Year War
Nice reaction. Yeah the stupid copyright filter is understandable...... this is Bandai we're talking about here. A company that somehow decided to sue themselves over copyright lol.
Lmao wow! They're that serious about their products 🤣🤣
@@WeAINTseenITREACTIONS weeeeelllll their products have been in the market for longer than most of their audience. If you know how big the dragon ball community in western countries then you get the picture. They have rights to fuckin Dragon ball man.
Fun fact most of the childhood toys coming from japan that you can think of probably came from either Bandai or Takara tomy and that's the scope their dealing here.
What do you mean by sueing themselves
@@hasnolhadiazmy They probably accidentally copyright struck their own GundamInfo channel or something, idk
That 2nd zeta opening moves me in ways i cannot explain.
V-Gundam had a lot of trouble even before being aired.
A budget cut by the sponsors, Tomino (the creator) in depression, and the change in viewer's trend in the 90s.
27:47 que recuerdos 😢
54:36 uff que buena canción y la que les sigue tambien de mis favoritos
There's actually an answer to the question of SEED's 4th Op:
Simply put, Japan's censorship laws don't allow the depiction of genitalia only. Anything above the waist is usually fair game.
U should watch:-
1. Gundam Seed
2. Gundam Seed Destiny
3. Gundam 00
4. Gundam Iron Blood Orphan
5. Gundam Unicorn
6. Gundam Witch From Mercury
i do agree SEED is a great starting place, but destiny isnt really worth checking unless you really liked SEED. i will say, thunderbolt and war in the pocket are better choices for a first or even second series. and IBO is probably a better choice than 00(due to 00's mid seasons episodes being so convoluted and bland).
Damn I was expecting for Field of hope but I forgot these are just the Openings 😆
What a nice vibe you two got going on
First gun dam I’ve watched was ZZ but I didn’t really get into it until Gundam Wing. G gundam was dope too but I was a bit older when I watched GWing so I understood more that concept of war. Watching Gundam Wing today, Heero Yui and the whole story just makes more sense.
asking whats wrong with his spine at 1:30:30 thats the Alaya-Vijnana system, creates a pseudo-brain lobe in the pilot's body using nano-machines, and this allows the pilot's brain to directly process mobile suit data fed through the physical connection. As the pseudo-brain lobe also governs spatial awareness so the pilot's spatial awareness is enhanced. Mikazuki (the character) got it 3 times
44:31
The first SD Gundam TV show is this, but SD Gundam franchise started in 1985.
It has very long history, and there are so many SD Gundam fans.
