- Do you find the Gundam Timeline intimidating? Not sure what the Universal Century is or where to start to witness this acclaimed story everyone raves on about? Well, I'm here to give you the quickest rundown available that will get you right into the awesome Gundam Series.
This is easily the simplest video to get you into Gundam, and if you're so excited that you can't even get through these 60 seconds, just start with Gundam The Origin OVA Series and thank me later.

---------------------------
Gundam (Japanese: ガンダムシリーズ, Hepburn: Gandamu Shirīzu, lit. Gundam Series) is a Japanese military fiction media franchise/media mix. Created by Yoshiyuki Tomino and Sunrise, the franchise features giant robots, or mecha, with the name "Gundam". The franchise began on April 7, 1979, with Mobile Suit Gundam, a TV series that defined the "real robot" mecha anime genre by featuring giant robots called mobile suits (including the original titular mecha) in a militaristic setting. The popularity of the series and its merchandise spawned a franchise that includes 50 TV series, films and OVAs as well as manga, novels and video games, along with a whole industry of plastic model kits known as Gunpla which makes up 90 per cent of the Japanese character plastic-model market.

For anyone saying not to start with Gundam The Origin, give this a watch 👀
th-cam.com/video/V4mfSzs6-As/w-d-xo.html
It might change your mind or at LEAST explains my reasoning
yeah start with origin, now watching all series
Cold…I respect it 😂
The thing with origin is that it's adapted from the flashback at from the origin manga with as a whole is a retelling of the original show. Events in origin don't add up to similar events in main canon
still don't
origin is more or less a background story-telling and rationalization to some uncleared/blanked settings from the OG TV and the movie series, if you don't watch the original first you do found a bit bored as you expected something(aka being spoiled)
not like the 0079 side-off series like 08MS, war in the pocket which considered as a independent story in a same time space, or thunderbolt which is literally a non-canon story
@@ronronchau thunderbolt anime is canon. The manga is definitely not
THANK YOU finally somebody that doesnt give me their whole perspective on Gundam and the subtle essences that define war and life while taking 20 mins to tell me which series I should begin with!
🫡
My lord dude facts I’m like wait did I click on the right video then they just start spitting out spoilers
This is not a lie, other videos literally start spoiling plot points...simplicity is the key to happiness.
Why couldnt you just read a timeline?
other content creators probably: "You can watch this but I don't like it it's trash sh*t tier garbage or you can watch this instead it's awesome it's great it's the best."
Then it turns into opinionated video.
First time I heard said "zero zero" instead of just "double O" LOL
I work with a bunch of Japanese guys and they all say a lot of the number different from how I did.
The first example that comes to mind is Galaxy Express 999. Where I said "nine-ninety-nine" they say "three nine"
"Watch Gundam" they said
"It's fun" they said
"There's a cool giant robot" they said
Then I just realized I'm witnessing the greed and hatred of humanity.
I love convincing people to watch gundam by saying it's just about cool robots and not warning them about all the genocide stuff and watching their reactions
I definitely prefer a chronological order but I understand the idea of following the timeline in order. I think origin hits a lot harder if you know what it’s referencing and what it’s changing. Kinda like how it’s hard to appreciate a remastered game if you didn’t play the original.
Origin should be watched after you finish MSG like a love letter side story for the fans since it gives away some of the mysteries.
Imagine knowing Anakin Skywalker is Darth Vader in Episode 3 first then you "find out" in the original trilogy that Darth Vader is Luke Skywalker's father. Wow, what a reveal.
I already knew some of the UC lore beforehand but I started watching the series with Origin before MSG and I felt like MSG was not as intense as it was supposed to be.
@@user-vi5gs6ih6j I mean chronological as in when they were released in real life, but I can see what you mean. If somebody really enjoys the original MSG, going straight into origin would keep the fun alive. But I think Zeta is such a perfect follow up tonally that I would still recommend that next.
@@CheddarDripit's better to say "release order" chronological order usually refers to the timeline of a story
@@user-vi5gs6ih6jI see your point, I'm already halfway through the story. If I didn't started with the masterpiece or Origin, I doubt very hard that I would have liked Gundam with the old movies
I started with iron blooded orphans, and it made me want more.
Same here. It hooked me to go back and start with Origins. I agree with the order presented here.
one of my favorites! Mercury was also pretty good. But, the older series like 0080 still bring back good memories of my childhood.
I came here after watching ibo too
just finished crying for biscuit last night damn
The best part about starting with iron blooded orphans is that literally every other series you watch will be better
Hathaway piqued my curiosity thanks to Sawano's work, and this makes the work to get there seem a little less daunting haha. Thank you!
I agree with everything except the movies. The full series is 100% worth your time.
Same
What's the full series? 😅 There's so many damn Gundam series 😅🤣
@@J.Zealuis instead of watching the first Gundam series via the movie trilogy - watch the anime episodic series. Honestly if you can get over the somewhat bad-at-times animation it’s a great series and sets up the rest of the Gundam shows. And when I say series I mean Mobile Suit Gundam (0079) aka first Gundam
I just finished watching the original series (0079), and it's great! Glad I didn't start with the movies.There are so many interesting details to get lost in. It's like reading an epic novel. Visually, the series is full of stunning imagery, and subtle character moments. It's amazing what they were able to accomplish with the limited tools at their disposal.
0079 => Zeta => ZZ => Char’s Counterattack
The only correct watch order, for UC anyways. Absolutely shouldn't start with Origin.
@@zero-pl3tt Idk, OG was really terrible so starting with something good could keep interest
@@Alians0108 If you thought OG was terrible then how would you be able to watch it after Origin anyways? In that case might as well just stick to reading the Origin manga.
@@zero-pl3tt I started with The Origin and absolutely don't regret it. It pulled me into the universe immediately and was easier to start since it was newer. Since then, I've completed all of the UC timeline.
I watched this vid like 15 times just to make sure I got the order right 😂😂✅
*starts video*
'Start with Origin'
*closes video*
wait why? (I'm new)
@@dereklucht4811basically rewrote the characters from the original (1979) show and took away what made them likable.
You saved me 9 minutes or more of my life since other videos just want to hit the 10 minute mark
watching gundam and starting with The Origin was the best desicion i could have made, it makes every character that much better and that much more important.
Don't start with Origin. It messes with your context for the original gundam run in negative ways. Start with any short standalone story, and then watch them in release order if you liked that.
Nah , I watched origins and then completed gundam movie trilogy , it's a good order. It's like watching fate zero before fate unlimited blade works.
Holy shit thank you so much. I've always wanted to get into Gundam but never understood where to start. Just finished Origins and it was a great intro and setup for the story. Working on the movie trilogy now!
Zeta is a masterpiece
Zeta is a masterpiece
start from the first one??
@@inhisglory960 it's not exactly that easy with all the prequels and different story lines.
This was actually sick ass hell you named G Gundam lol my dawg dont miss...........
I never watched Stardust memory, looks awesome
Iron- Blooded Orphans (IBO) Is literally I think the best Gundam series although the plot is more simplistic than others the idea of it being more realistic & having relatable themes make it a lot more successful & powerful than others. It simply is a masterpiece of anime. Definitely would recommend to start with it to see if you like the idea of Gundam
>Best Watch Order
>Start With Non Canon prequel
Why would you even watch it first you're not supposed to know about Char going into 0079, the Char part of the manga even happens late in the manga because of this.
The information is all I want to hear. Every second is not wasting my time at all. Thank you very much for considering your viewers!
I really just watched the OG series and it was pretty enjoyable.
lifes good when you dont take the zoomer path eh?
@@notafortnitegamer What are you trying to imply?
@@hamlet1055 that by watching the original series as opposed to defaulting on the movie trilogy or skipping the og series entirely, you had a better experience.
@@notafortnitegamer Oh! I got it!
@@hamlet1055 if you really want to level up, watch the earlier series on a CRT. Viewed gundam(079) , zeta gundam, 8th ms team, and war in the pocket like that and the colors look great
Origin is not standard UC, it's an alternative version of that universe based on Yasuhiko's manga. The new Cucuruz Island movie is set in Origin's timeline, and we're likely going got get other works connected to it. I'd never recommend anyone to start with Origin, as it spoils 0079 without really being connected to it
How does it spoil 0079? Didn't Char and Sayla recognize each other in the first episode?
@@falkyrie5228 they weren't sure about it, which is why Sayla asks about Char when she has a chance to talk to a Zeon soldier. Also, the first episode doesn't mention anything about Zeon Zum Deikon, we learn about it later in the series
@@frankjaeger2565 I don't know, I don't think it impacts the experience that much, it was never that big of a reveal. Heck, Char spills the beans about his revenge plot in the episode where he kills Garma. Anyway, I'll always defend that it should be watched in release order.
@@falkyrie5228 @Frank Jaeger I respect both you guy's comments! I just finished Origins today AFTER watching MSG first, and would like to say that finding out about Char & Sayla's backgrounds was cooler in this order, but I wouldn't say that it would spoil the experience if watched chrono'd. Either way that shit was really fucking good!
@@unp4tch3d
Think itd depend what kind of experience you want.
If you want to see Char as more of a mystery like he originally was, then it's better to watch the tv show first. Whereas if you instead want to just see things happen at a chronological order with the future rival as the protagonist, then Origin is a good way to start.
And if you want to go even further, read side story mangas like Encounters in Space, Lost War Chronicles, Blue Destiny, Missing Link, Rise from the Ashes, and Iron Mustang. All of these happened during the One Year War, or at least what could've happened.
It seems like there are as many Gundam series as there are One Piece Episodes, I swear.
It’s pretty overwhelming hey
To be fair tho Gundams been around since 1979, lot happens in 40+ years
Im starting with origin and i gotta say the art is sooo good.
Fuck me that was amazing, 10/10 peak efficiency and quality. Thank you
Holy shit, that's a lot of gundam shows!!! I'm super overwhelmed now....
Wtf, if you watch Origin first, you literally spoils the whole plot of the original saga! What a way to draw out all the magic of the OG show...
By saga do you mean the first show? The entire Tomino shows? Also how
I'm new to gundam and was spending hours trying to figure out where to start and here is the answer you're the best man
Just don't start with Origin (it's not canon)
@@frankjaeger2565 oof just finished orgin like 4 days ago, rn watching the og show almost done with it
Which one is the OG show? and I got confused when he brought in the sub stories/ side stories can anyone give me a list of the order to watch?
Also I always thought Gundam wing was the OG show lol that’s what would come on toonami when I was a kid
You spent hours trying to figure out a watch order instead of just going to Wikipedia and seeing which series was the first one?
00 series and the movie are my favorite.. haven’t watched anything else yet but thanks for the video
Nicely done. You did this better then a few other 10+ min video's on the topic.
You forgot MS Igloo between Origin and the Og 3 movies, and after Victory Gundam you could have mentioned that Reconguista G is set in the same Universe followed by Turn A Gundam that is kind of set in it as well, but that is more or less converging timeline stuff.
The Origin is probably my favor of all, but I actually recommend watching 0079, Z and Char's Counterattack first, UC-wise. I find it cooler to watch the origin in a retrospective way, you will like and understand the characters better. However, for very first timer to Gundam i actually recommend Seed or 00, the animation from old UC ones are just too old for most people and they will probably find the story too slow and dragging. Seed and 00 are not too old, the characters and mobile suits are cool, story is pretty "public-friendly", like there is something for everyone and you might not love it but you won't hate it.
You're the goat. No bullshit about anything, straight to business. Subbed.
Thank you for not posting an inflated 20+Minute video
Noice Vis, Hopefully this video means we'll be getting videos of gundam in the future. I specially cannot wait until you make videos on the UC side stories, 08th MS Teams, War in the pocket and Thunderbolt really got me more invested in the franchise than the gundam original series. And on a personal note, I think you'll definitely really enjoy IBO, to this day it's still one of my all time favs. Nicely done video btw, considering how long some other gundam introductory videos are, I'm sure this vid will blow up on views in the future.
Cheers man! I’d absolutely love to do more videos on Gundam in the future, cause if I’m perfectly honest my channels a bit all over the place, which is fine, but if I want to grow I guess I gotta niche down a bit? I love doing the Zoids stuff and I’ll always continue to do it, but the fan-base isn’t huge, so maybe niching down to the mecha guy could be in my best interest 🤔
Who knows the whole TH-cam thing is so confusing I’ve been doing it for a couple years and I still feel like I’m trying to get my footing.
Out of curiosity man, other than just simply reviews, is there any other type of Gundam content you’d like to see? Any specifics about the series you’d like to see covered?
@@Viseak I completely get it, I love Zoids and the zoids community, but unfortunately it's pretty small. I'm completely on board if you wanna go for the mecha route (with the occasional non mecha series or videogame here and there), there's lots of franchises you could cover, you already did Code Geass, Zoids and Gundam, so now you could talk about Gurren Lagann, Evangelion, Macross, Voltron, Mazinger Z, Eureka Seven, S.S.S.S. Gridman, Aldnoah Zero, Full Metal Panic!, etc. I'm really excited to see you expanding on the mecha genre in your channel (I believe every zoids and gundam fan is a fan of mecha in general) and to answer your question, I would love to see you do deep analysis videos on the gundam lore and characters (they're really complex and worth explaining) as well as the overall message of the series (There's no good or bad guys in war, there's also no winners or heroes in war, only death and destruction), I would also love to hear your personal thoughts on the series, maybe do a comparison between them (some series are really alike, others are very different, would be interesting to hear what you think about that). I think I went a bit overboard with the suggestions (sorry about that, i get excited over things like this), but whatever you decide I'll stay here watching your content. Cheers mate!
@@alejandrogonirovirosa3214 nah that’s fair enough mate! Gurren Lagann and Eva are two series I definitely want to cover at some point.
Character analysis is also something I’m heavily considering for Gundam, I think Amuro gets really overshadowed by Char and would love to make videos on both individually cause they’re fantastic well written characters. As well as exploring NewTypes and the core themes surrounding them, it’s honestly such an interesting topic seeing human evolution in that way and I’d love to go in on it further.
The themes of war could end up being a great case study on how perfectly Zoids Chaotic Century and Gundam explore the nuance of there being no true ‘good’ and ‘bad’ guys, in an anime where you’d typically expect good and bad guys.
There’s plenty I want to cover trust me, it just takes me AGES to write scripts especially on series I don’t know inside out like Zoids hahaha
Neither Thunderbolt nor Origin are cannon to the UC timeline.
And most likely would make people more confused when things dont add up
The animes for Thunderbolt and Origin are 100% canon to the main UC timeline. Officially stated by Sunrise in their latest timeline guide.
Been wanting to get into gundam since evolution has come out really like the game
the most useful video on the internet
I mostly recommended people new to gundam to watch either SEED, 00, IBO or wing first before delving into UC series.
I started with Wing before jumping into the UC timeline series. Wing has a lot of great designs, the plot can get bloated but I still enjoyed it.
That, or just watch it in release order. You know, so you don't get COMPLETE whiplash in terms of quality.
Aren’t there more Gundam shows like Turn A Gundam, Gundam G No Reconguista, Gundam Build and so. How would watch these shows
No real order there, they're just kinda their own series
Damn I started with Gundam Wing Mobile Suite
And if that isn’t enough, spend your life savings on the model kits
So far, these are Gundam animes that I have watched: 00 (Alt.) => Thunderbolt (0079, non-canon UC) => Unicorn (0096) => 08th MS (0079) => 0080: War in the Pocket => Narrative (0097) => 0083: Stardust Memory => Zeta (0087) => Hathaway (0105) => Witch from Mercury (Alt.)
Yeah, it is really messy lol.
0:23 maaan ... You made me think my mom was knocking on my door with these special effect pop up sounds 😂
This series scares the shit out of me. I really want to see everything about it. I may go by release date.
don't be scared. unlike this video suggests, 1979 is the best way to go.
I am writing a story about robots battles and political influences in the country, I realised Gundam has done it 40 years ago. What a series just discovered it last night, already watching Gundam origins
Start with "the origin" and not watching the original TV series is the worst thing to someone who don't know Gundam. Just go chronologically and you will have a incredible journey. Watch "The origin" first will destroy completely the experience of try to discover and understand Char and UC.
Couldn’t disagree more man. Starting a newcomer with the old and dry 0079 TV series is the worst way to try and get a newcomer into Gundam
The original tv series have so much buried on that old animation. Discussions, characters, development. It's old, but true gold if you are really into it.
If gundam is just robots clash, go for G and Seed. No need to waste time on UC.
@@PauloShiotsuki it’s so much more than the old animation, although that’s a large factor, it’s also the pacing and the monster of the week format absolutely killing any enjoyment a modern audience would get.
It’s slow, it’s old, and is boring. Sure, there’s a lot to be said about the characters and the world, which is why I rate the movies.
And besides, all of it is done far better in Zeta, even Double Zeta or really, near ANY other UC entry anyway
you just never watched the tv series@@Viseak ? i recomend you to give a chance and check. No monster week every episode is conected to the next one. Theres always a battle in the episode, that is not a constant in the "new ones" like "mercury witch" had soo many episodes without action and uinexplicable time sweep, making original tv no slow. There is soo much happening on the White base, the people living there, the enemies and in the world that maybe modern audience can't stand on the storm of information.
Give a chance, you will be surprised.
@@PauloShiotsuki nah it better to start with origin because most if not all will drop it after first 10 min because of the animation alone
The timeline Is correct for UC but there Is Just One thing to remember.
Thunderbolt and Origin are anime version of non canonical UC mangas that were made "canonical" by Sunrise adapting only the portion they wanted
In addition there Is another side story to add
Cucuruz Doan's Island movie that Is set in the same Origin alternative timeline but it's a Cool movie to Watch.
anyone asking what concludes all the timeline
This is the one Yoshiyuki Tomino provide
Turn A Gundam
immediately invalidated at the beginning by starting with the origin
"watch order"
I thought you buy a gundam watch and decide to order it in 60 seconds. 😅
You know Gundam 00 was the first Gundam show that I ever watched.
Gundam WfM for me
Could not disagree more with starting with Origin.
Canonicity aside, as a prequel it’s inherently written with the expectation of you having the original show or at least knowing it’s characters (it’s why the Origin manga only does the backstory after Movie 2)
Also personally speaking, not only does Origin have some stupid shit thrown it (ex. the real Char), it misses a lot of why people actually like Char as a character for the sake of making him “the coolest” since he’s the author’s favourite character
Origin should be watched last lol. It won't be as impactful otherwise. And 83 is after Zeta for the same reason.
I disagree, but I tend to have a pretty warped view on prequels.
There are very few I’d genuinely consider better to watch after all the original stuff. Most prequels, when done right, work as a great entry point for newcomers into a series that are too intimidated by its long history (Gundam being a near perfect example, the fact Origin’s not technically canon ruins this a little but ya know, close enough).
HOW THO?!?! I can't find 75% of those anywhere to stream :(
This video is really helpful but you can Short all of them into 4 Tomino UC Gundam series that you need to watch in order to understand universal century
Did he just say "zero zero"
Honestly i would only recommend the movie trillogy to people who are lazy or as a re-watch of the original because there's so much missing thats been cut like the Gun Tank and G Armor aren't even in the movies at all except one scene at the end where they forget to edit them out
I would only recommend gundam build fighters after you have watched quite a bit of gundam or know a decent amount of gundam lore as a majority of the references WILL fly over your head
Perfect listing IMO! For stretch goal, I’d sub watching the OG series instead of the movies if you have the time.
I watched Gundam 00 first then unicorn 0096 and then I just watched whatever I want. 😂 I followed my own path.
But then on the next rewatch squeezing Dylan's island in between watching 1 and 2 of the movie trilogy
Im gonna save this to my watchlist order. Thanks
Yea I need something like this for dragon ball
Thank you
just got into Gunpla and had no prior knowledge of Gundam, got the RX-0 Unicorn and loved it so thought i go watch it, it wasn't that bad, lack of epilogue was annoying, then i went into Seed since Bandai had been advertising Freedom like there is no tomorrow, really enjoyed it, going into Destiny next.
With the exception of zeta and double zeta, they are all pretty self-contained, so I would say any watch order is mostly. Double Zeta is even basicly skipable aomw people even suggest it thise first 20ish epaiosdes are torture.
New Viseak video 👀
It’s only 60 seconds 😞
Damn, way to make me feel insecure dude 😒
Next video will definitely be longer tho haha
Bro didn't say Turn A, what a shame
I fckn love zam, just tankong hundreds of shots, tilts up slightly BLATZ one shots 1 to 3 entire battleships
OH NO i have just come to realise all my favourite gundam series (and gunpla) are all from a alternate universe :O
lol. You just placed the movies/series/OVAs in the UC timeline. That works. 😂
I'm a huge UC BUFF and if someone is pressed for time, I truly feel one can definitely skip NT Narritive and maybe even skip Double Zeta.
Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed ZZ, but it was all over the place sometimes.
People just get past the 3 movies. No just watch 08th ms team and thunderbolt and 083 . Then go back and watch the movies. The movies are so old it could throw you off the franchise watch 08th ms team first and thunderbolt and you will be hooked
just going to go ahead and warn people since it was only hinted to here, but the movies aren't just rushed they leave out MASSIVE key plot points and can make good characters out to be douchebags because it's cut up so much. so i can only recommend the movies if you are maybe wanting to watch the OG series but you're on a 9 hour flight, some of the really good fight scenes are even cut out and some of the relationships in the show are cut up so poorly in the movies it just seems like everyone is cheating on everyone, if you plan to watch chars counter attack, Zeta or hathaway i do NOT recommend watching the movies and instead watch the full OG series, you see characters in the series and understand who they are that show up later in zeta and hathaway that are completely cut from the movies.
Watch iron blooded orphans. Just watch Iron Blooded Orphans. Do it. It's so good.
I like it. I love the premise. I just cannot stand Mikazuki. If his character was a robot/android it would come across better. I mean he literally gets limbs chopped off and just stares off into the distance blankly. Serious political discussion? Blank stare. Someone does something nice for him? Blank stare. A lifelong friend dies? Blank stare. A girl BANGS HIM? Blank stare.
He's like what an edgelord thinks the perfect edgelord is. 'Above it all' to the max, so much so that he's above eating dinner.
Best list
Gundam 00 was my favorite
Quick and to the point take my like
Origin is just fan service for Gundam boomers. 0080 and 08th ms team are a better introduction to Universal Century.
Having said that, I would tell them to watch the Gundam in release order until Turn A, no matter what beginners say. This is because the 80's and 90's were the golden age of Gundam, and Turn A is the culmination of that. The Gundam franchise for me ended perfectly with Turn A.
I don't really like anything after the 2000s. 00 and Thunderbolt were good, but I didn't enjoy the rest as much.
Nah , I started with Witch from Mercury , then Iron blooded orphans. Then unicorn and thunderbolt.
I wanted to know the original timeline. So I watched Origins at recommendation of him and then watched the movie trilogy. I can say for frist timers this is THE best point to start.
Nice recoms, but I just can't unhear over "zee-zee" or "zero-zero".
Double-O
Double-Zeta
Anyone that want to watch gundam look up gundam time line. Follow the u.c Universal century and make sure to watch 08th ms team its short but the best war gundam series ever made its my top anime. The other timelines are kiddy to me
What is Gundam ZZ?
It’s Double Zeta
But I'm already a fan of gundam and I've seen most of these before. While I do have a bit of a personal pet peeve about certain franchises them being how Iron blooded orphans I only like the 1st season my friends can vouch for me on that especially considering what we know about the writing process of it including season 2, F 91 should have been a series, After war gundam X should have had more than just a couple more episodes and then be given a chance to have an English dub, and I prefer Build fighters over Try, Divers and Re Rise, I do still enjoy the franchise a lot especially since I went and got a couple of model kits over the years. And Hey it's the same series that gave us G gundam, solid snake voicing a character in 0080 and Top gun with Gundams so it is still a lit series lol.
To be honest I still have heaps to catch up on, I just binged the UC timeline in the last week or so haha
And I agree F 91 deserved a full series, it was a great ride to say the least.
I think next on my list to watch will be either Iron Blooded Orphans or G Gundam tbh.
In terms of the kits I’ve always been more of a Zoids guy, but after properly watching Gundam I’m considering the dive into Gunpla
@@Viseak Well if you want to get into Gunpla then it's best to start with High Grade and then work your way up. Or be like me and just stick to HG lol.
@@MrDarksol I’ve heard Zoid HMM’s are roughly equivalent to an MG, so honestly, I was considering going for an MG, RG or even potentially a PG
At the moment I’m leaning towards grabbing an RG Sazabi and Nu Gundam tho
@@Viseak Then you should go for it if you can.
@@MrDarksol yeah the troubles finding them in stock hahaha
Maybe one day
Bro, we just have like 30% of the shows on german crunchyroll like wtf D:
Wing Zero is an alt timeline? Jesus this universe is huge
This is highly appreciated.
Witch From Mercury deserves a mention for its quality
I hadn’t watched WFM back then but yeah 100%, it’s a great watch
I started with iron blood orphans today
You poor soul
Thanks for saving me hella time doing research you the bomb man
ok but what about mobile suit gundam 1976?
Me before watching this video: Don't know much of anything about this franchise, but how expansive can it be?
Me after watching: 0_0
I mean it ain’t as crazy as something like Fate, but it’s definitely pretty expansive, and well worth your time
@@Viseak So aside from time crunching, what do the movies have over the original first Gundam anime?
@@charlescaulkins8306 honestly, practically nothing, the 3rd movie has slightly better animation if I’m not mistaken (and a slightly different ending)
But if you’ve got the time the original TV run might be the way to go, it does suffer a bit from ‘monster of the week’ syndrome, but if you can get over that it allows the characters to develop a lot more.
Personally I watched the first 15 or so episodes of the TV series and just switched to the movies after that as it was dragging a bit too much for my liking
Which is the OG series you guys refer to? I always thought Gundam wing was the OG lol that’s what came on toonami when I was a kid
@@zachwalton3544The one from 1979
ya know.... i was making my way thru the original but it's taking a LOOOONG time. probably gonna switch to the 3 movies on Netflix
Is it ok to watch char's counterattack after watching the movie trilogy without watching anything else?
You technically could, but I really wouldn’t recommend it.
Both Zeta and ZZ are fantastic in their own right and are well worth watching before the climax of CCA.
I know it’s an exiting movie to get to, and two long series are a pretty big pill to swallow, but the movie will be much more impactful with the context / after the journey of what comes before it.
You don’t need to watch any of the side stories like 08th MS team/0083 Stardust Memory/0080 War in the pocket to get context for it though (although of course I’d still recommend coming back to and watching them later, they’re all great in their own right).
So the shortest way I’d get to CCA is just OG movies -> Zeta -> ZZ -> CCA
@@Viseakthank you so much for the info 🫡🫡🫡
So where in this does the new Witch from Mercury fit?
G Gundam is actually the only required viewing, so you can just start with that and then your good.
Definitely watch the original show over the compilation movies. You lose a lot by just watching the movies. Also you don’t need origin, thunderbolt, 08th ms team or stardust memory. They’re all side stories and also stardust is boring. For UC you really only need the original show, zeta, ZZ, and char’s counterattack.
In main timeline u forgot about Recongista in G
"start with Origin" you are insane. that show is a prequel built around the tragedy of knowing what's going to happen. one of the openings is literally Beyond the Time and one of the EDs is Mizu no Hoshi e Ai o Koete, it is assuming you know what happens in CCA and Zeta going in. what on earth is people's problem with just watching in release order

Origin leaves out so much of the good stuff from the manga.
True, BUT, it’s still really great (and gorgeously animated)
