Gundam 00.

Sivrat Wrote:Sorry if i mislead you. I liked the realism in the beginning, but even though thats changed, doesnt mean i dont like ridiculousness at times too (Guren Lagann was incredibly fun to watch). Also, since i do like some gundam, but have to admit most of the earlier gundams i watched were on cartoon network(should really go back and rewatch in sub... hmm... begins downloading) i dont truly get teh "non-UC Gundam" part. Care to explain what the UC stands for? I might need to download a bunch of various gundam series i have missed, or never finished.

Oh, I wasn't trying to be harsh or anything, I just wanted to know why you still liked the show, when you seemed to bash it. Universal Century Gundam has more of a Real Robot feel to it, although I've only seen 8th MS Team. Any of the non-UC Gundam, such as 00, Wing, and SEED (garbage) are geared towards Super Robot.

Gundam is supposed to be a Real Robot show, as opposed to Super Robot show, like TTGL is. The mechas are supposed to be based off of some sort of realistic means, or scientifically explained at the very least, though that is still a bit of a stretch for some series to still be considered "Real Robot". The mechas should be plausible in a real-life view, in some way. i.e. if we had the technology/resources to build a Gundam, it could work to some degree, but we don't have the means to do so. Alternatively, it's impossible to create the technology to build a Gurren Lagann as it seems to be able to create mass and is fueled with hot blood. How many men must we slaughter to fill the gass tank?!

Gundam 00 started off quite Real Robot, but at this point, it's beginning to become more "Super Robot" with the mile long beam saber and poor scientific justification of more recent things.

I think it's just 00-Raiser and Trans-AM that makes the show feel more like Super Robot. I mean, if you look back at S2 EP 20, Setsuna was out of action for quite awhile, and CB was getting their asses kicked.
