Shinichi! Which Gundam should I start watching? I like it, so it’s fine! I see… Then I’ll start with this thing called Turn A… It would be better to watch the others first… Ugh!!
Stardust Memory
War in the Pocket
Well then, let’s talk about this thing called the G-Saber…
Unicorns and Hathaway are ridiculously popular with sequels coming out left and right, and it seems like everyone isn’t really concerned that the story is still ongoing…
>>3
Even long-time Gundam fans don’t necessarily start watching from the 1st.
It might be better to pick it up somewhere and get interested, as that could lead to becoming hooked.
G Generation F
Just go with the first one…
The movie version is easy to watch.
>>5
Where is the green uncle!!
First is G Gundam.
It’s really okay with 00.
The lines are organized dramatically and are easy to listen to.
On the contrary, Tomino’s works are a parade of “Why did you say that line now!?” which causes confusion.
I think it’s okay as a seed.
Fate chooses people, but for now, there is also freedom.
Any of the Anothers is fine.
Seriously
>>9
Is this really Gundam? I mean, a lot of my classmates are dying and there are no robots…
>>13
I miss Another…
Well, it’s better to watch the others before Turn A, right?
>>10
Shu!
>>10
You really just need to take a quick look…
>>10
Well, you only need to take a little look, you know…
>>10
Well, you really just need to take a quick look at it…
I told you I liked you!
It’s fine to look back at history from Turn A, X, or Z-Gundam as well.
What you were concerned about at that time is justice.
Isn’t it better to watch something like Turn A, which is completely separated in time from others, first rather than starting in the middle of a clear sequel?
After watching Turn A, watch the other Universal Century series.
Ah, I think it’s also interesting to realize that Turn A is a story set long after this era.
It’s fine to use the latest one or the one I used when I was around 12 years old.
There are those who believe it’s better to view it from the perspective of Turn A.
Since it’s all been reset, past events are truly in the past, so there’s no need to take them into account.
If you’re interested, you can just watch a different work at that time.
It’s fine to put off the ones that Tomino is directing.
The scene transitions are too abrupt, and for those used to modern anime, it makes you think, “Why did it switch now?!”
Latest work
Isn’t it just that the fan service elements are present, and it’s not complete without it?
The newest or first theatrical version.
The text you provided appears to be incomplete. Please provide a complete text to translate.
Because I was like that.
After all, if the artwork is old, it’s easy to lose interest, so maybe starting from Mercury or Unicorn would be fine…
On the contrary, I want you to watch G after you’ve become somewhat immersed in it.
The other day, when I saw the first generation for the first time, I was surprised at how fast the story progressed.
I have the impression that old anime had a lot of episodes that were about trivial everyday life.
The only element that’s better viewed from the outside in Turn A is probably the scene with the black history materials that Agrippa shows in the winter palace.
If you want to check out Gundam for now, the latest TV series.
If you want to know it as knowledge, perhaps the first theatrical version would be the way to go…
On the contrary, why did you say that line in Tohno’s work now!? It’s a parade of confusion.
It’s fine as a seed.
It’s fine to look back at the history from Turn A, X, or Zieg Kreuz as well.
What you are concerned about at that moment is justice.
If it weren’t for the Universal Century, wouldn’t it be fine to start with any of them…?
I think it’s good to go with the latest one or the one I played around the age of 12.
Perhaps Shinichi is the type to get caught up in scenes that seem to have an original source or inspiration.
X is better after seeing the others…
Is it okay to start from Jikuakusu, Shinichi?
I’ve been recommended Poké Wars, but isn’t that a really weird pitch…?
I see, then this thing called Zabungle…
>>41
If that’s what you want, then it’s fine because I like it…
>>41
If that’s what you want, then it’s fine with me…
>>41
The OP is cool, so it’s great.
>>72
Seriously, don’t mess with me…
I want to see it for sure → That can wait.
I don’t particularly have a preference, but I’d like to watch Gundam → The very first one or the very newest one is fine.
>>41
If that’s what you want, then it’s fine to like it…
>>41
If that’s what you want, then it’s fine with me…
Some people prefer to view it from Turn A instead.
Since everything has been reset once, past events are truly in the past, so there’s no need to take them into consideration.
If you’re interested, you can just look at a different work then.
The G-Gun is really subtle until the master appears.
>>44
If you’re saying that’s subtle, isn’t it also subtle that the master refers to Devil Gundam as “Lord”?
I definitely want to see it → That’s fine to go after that.
I don’t have anything particular in mind, but I’d like to watch Gundam → The very first one or the newest one is fine.
The OVA is for people who already know about it.
I can’t recommend it because there’s a possibility of disappointment due to the difference in artwork compared to the main story.
At first, I said anything was fine, but if you complain about it, then of course…
You have to put in a lot of effort for the fourth quarter, so do your best!
Four cours is actually long, isn’t it?
One cour or two cour, it really feels long once you get used to it.
>>52
If anything, even the creators sometimes feel overwhelmed, and there are times when it feels like a break with chopsticks…
>>52
There are times when even those who are making something feel overwhelmed and want to take a break.
Well then, this Kukurus Doan fellow…
>>53
So far, this is the only Gundam work I’ve seen.
When I was a kid, I watched a few episodes of G Gundam, the one where robots fight in the world, on Animax too.
I like Doan because he’s cool, but apparently he doesn’t really get a chance to shine in other works…
>>77
Is it the Sharable phenomenon…?
>>77
Is it the Sharable phenomenon…?
I want to show some works first, then show Turn A and make people think the design is lame, and then have them see it in motion.
>>54
“Is… dead.”
I think it’s good in the movie.
Therefore, F91’s song is good too.
G Gundam was also discussed in interviews with people from Bandai and Sunrise at that time.
They say that since the master left, the reactions have gotten better, so it must actually be true.
Even after the master left, the conversation is still quite dark… There’s no doubt that the direction changed around that point.
Becoming the public image G-Gun starts from Neo Hong Kong.
This is the kind of thing I used to do around the age of 12 or so, and it’s probably fine.
>>60
Why do you say it twice?
I’ve heard that there are quite a few people who watched Hathaway’s Flash without knowing about Gundam.
When the master appears, there’s also the understanding of how to adjust the channel or enjoy it.
Here we go again with this topic in this thread.
If you have the desire to see, it doesn’t matter where you start from.
>>63
I see…
Well then, this
Turn A and
It’s what they say…
When I rewatched G Gundam, which I had seen sporadically during elementary school, it turned out to be quite different from what I imagined and was interesting.
Such experiences may be important.
No, it’s not a problem to start with Turn A at all.
Recent works
No ties with other works.
The character is cute.
Moves well
It’s Mercury, Shinichi. Look from Mercury.
GBF was easy to recommend for beginners.
You might need some prior knowledge to understand the latest information.
With the internet available now, fans can complement in real-time.
Isn’t it better to watch the ones that Tominaga is directing first?
You can also look at it from the perspective of Tern AE, X, or Jikuxas throughout history.
Shinichi, is there no anime for this thing called Hykkevain?
I think fans are too caught up in the idea that “prior knowledge is necessary to enjoy the work.”
>>76
There may be an obsessive idea that one must fully enjoy the goodness of a work at its core.
In reality, I also can’t really put that into practice, and even if I try, it ends up taking time as I search for surrounding information and review things multiple times.
>>34
Shu!
>>79
I think it’s good in the movie.
Therefore, F91 is good for singing too.
There are also those who think it’s better to view it from the perspective of Turn A.
Since everything has been reset, the past is truly the past, so there’s no need to take it into account.
Well then, ZZ!
I had no idea about the mess of war and political strife.
The first thing I watched from beginning to end was G.
The story/worldview is interesting.
That’s too weak of a hook for beginners.
>>85
It’s a place you can’t understand unless you see it in person…
I think it’s better to choose characters that are cool or cute, or mechs that look cool based on appearance.
I was recommended F91 and got into it really easily.
I think it’s not a good idea to watch Z, ZZ, and Char’s Counterattack as the first ones.
>>87
As for Z, it’s fine to just go with Camille’s perspective…
In Char’s Counterattack, you can just enjoy the amazing MS battles…
>>87
There are some OVAs meant for those in the know.
I cannot recommend it because there is a possibility of being disappointed due to the difference in animation quality compared to the original work.
>>87
As for Z, it’s fine as long as you can jump on Camus’ perspective…
All you need to do is watch the amazing battles in MS Reverse Shara…
I really don’t think there’s anything I don’t understand besides what I see from ZZ.
Viewing from Z or from Char’s Counterattack surprisingly isn’t a problem.
You can experience the atmosphere of Tomino’s anime and the Universal Century, and it’s (somewhat) wrapped up in a single movie, with impressive animation quality.
I think F91 is actually pretty good.
If it’s not from the Universal Century and just a standalone, any of them is fine.
If you’re interested in Gundam, you might have heard about it, so starting from Turn A is fine too.
A science fiction writer who watched Gundam SEED FREEDOM without any prior knowledge said, “It was very easy to understand, except for Athrun.”
>>97
Aslan has already seen everything, so he doesn’t need any more understanding beyond that…
>>97
Asuran seems to have new discoveries every time he makes an appearance…
>>97
Aslan seems to have new discoveries every time he has a chance to appear…
I haven’t seen movies like 0083 or EW, or any compilation films.
I wonder if it’s made in a way that you can enjoy it properly even if you suddenly see it.
>>100
There are many parts where 83 is cut down significantly, but it’s made in such a way that it doesn’t feel like a digest version.
EW is short from the beginning, so it doesn’t feel that out of place.
Turn A is tough because in the movie version, you just get hit with Tomino’s style relentlessly.
In the TV version, it’s really long, so I’ll stick with the original movie version…
Starting with the movie version all of a sudden might be quite confusing.
>>104
I have heard that there are quite a few people who have watched “Gundam: Char’s Counterattack” without knowing about Gundam.
I saw something I wanted to see → That’s fine after that.
I don’t have a particular preference, but I’d like to see Gundam → It’s okay to start with the very first one or the newest one.
>>105
If you want to see the most interesting one, which one should you choose?
>>108
This topic seems likely to lead to a heated debate, so let’s skip it.
>>108
We have to start by getting rid of the mindset of not wanting to draw a losing card…
Even if more than 90% of people find it boring, it might be interesting to you.
>>108
The war begins.
Agnes will explain the relationships between people to those who don’t know Gundam SEED.
Well, I think a movie is fine.
Therefore, F91 is good, and the song is nice too.
There are people who went to see Zieg Aks without having seen any of the Gundam series, so I guess any entry point is fine…
It’s relatively okay with anything, but it might be better to watch Z and ZZ in order.
It’s surprisingly possible to go from Char’s Counterattack to the First.
The advance screening of Zeek Ax was all about attracting people who don’t know about Gundam.
Isn’t it better to watch something like Turn A Gundam, which is clearly set in a different era than others, from the beginning rather than midway through a sequel?
After watching Turn A, watch the other Universal Century series.
Ah, I think it’s interesting to realize that Turn A is actually set far in the future from this time.
In the story of Turn A, there aren’t any points that become boring even if you haven’t seen other series, except for the scene where you peek into the dark history.
There aren’t any particular points that would be marked down for not knowing about the old machines that come out.
Many people from abroad enter through W, right?
It might be interesting to watch Turn A, then G Gundam, and realize that “this is what Shining Finger was all about.”
It seems that among Gundam fans, there isn’t a unanimous title that everyone agrees on as “this is the definitive edition!”
>>121
There are almost no Gundam series that are consistently rated as interesting…
>>121
To summarize as a sort of greatest common divisor, it would be “the original is safe” and “No, the art is too outdated.”
>>121
I don’t think anyone denies that the original Gundam is an undeniable masterpiece for fans, but it is quite old.
Although there is also a theatrical version, I can’t deny that the art style is said to be old.
>>121
The TV version is set to have four seasons as its basic form, so even if I recommend it, it’s quite long.
If you’re going to see it through, in the end, it comes down to watching what you personally find interesting.
It’s probably best to watch them in order, but it’s a waste to get stuck on a piece that you can’t get into and end up missing the interesting ones afterward.
I want to know the atmosphere of the famous Gundam.
If it’s that kind of motivation, it might be possible to suddenly show things like “Rei’cly’s Flash” or “Char’s Counterattack.”
To be honest, I can’t really recommend ZZ…
The conversation in between is too convoluted and boring!
The end is interesting, but…
I think the OO that was mentioned earlier is really a great compromise.
It’s not extremely old, and since it’s neatly wrapped up in both the TV anime and the movie version, it’s also relatively easy to watch.
In addition, there is also a sense of Gundam.
08 is compact and short, so it’s easy to recommend.
It’s fine if you don’t know about the One Year War other than that place.
Not just about Gundam, but topics like “What should I start studying from?” are like advice for hypothetical young otaku.
I think everything just means that you should keep up with all the latest works in real time.
I think that the person giving advice is usually someone who hasn’t been passionately following new works and has mostly lost interest halfway through.
If I were to recommend something for beginners, it would probably be the original Gundam, Gundam 0080, or Gundam 00.
It’s really sad to be dismissed because the artwork is old, but I can also understand the reason.
I wonder what makes people who don’t update their knowledge, not just about Gundam, so eager to give advice.
>>181
This may require some prior knowledge, so please look at the latest information.
With the internet now, fans can do real-time updates.
Every Gundam series is long, and it takes a lot of courage to confidently recommend it because it can be quite a hurdle.
For now, I think it’s safe to go after the new things.
It’s better to push for a “Requiem of Vengeance.”
You shouldn’t suddenly push old works.
I suppose anything is fine, but it might be better to watch Z and then ZZ in order.
“Surprisingly, the First could come after Char’s Counterattack.”
Well then, this Build Fighters thing…
I’ve touched on various works around the Universal Century, so I know the story, but I’ve never actually seen the original series or movies.
>>143
There are probably quite a few people like that.
I’ve seen the TV version too, but I still haven’t watched the original movie.
The Build series is more of a Gundam model anime, so it’s quite difficult to recommend it…
UC has an impression of being relatively stable and receiving high ratings…
When I was a kid, I got into Gundam through the reruns of ZZ and have been following the Anothers ever since.
I think I watched the first generation and the main story around the time X ended.
https://anond.hatelabo.jp/20250417020657
I’ll post the one that was trending yesterday.
Masuda said that he had been following Gundam to some extent but found a Gundam he liked so much that it made him cry.
>>149
That’s a nice story…
I understand why reading Yuichi Hasegawa in your 20s resonates so much.
>>154
It’s best to have someone who can write an interesting story even without Gundam draw Gundam.
Looking at the hugely popular “Sambol,” I think even more so.
I’ve never seen a robot that is cool or cute, or a machine that is cool or cute, or anything like that.
It was an image where any ordinary day could be filled with many things.
I haven’t seen it from anyone else’s perspective, have I…?
It’s fine to choose Turn A from the beginning, though.
It is recommended to watch Turn A after watching a few other works.
“I want you to see G40 and think, ‘Is this what Gundam is like?'”
I joined from the 08th Team.
I first saw it as a rerun in the morning when I was a kid.
I forgot whether it was the First or Z.
>>157
Well then, this thing called Build Fighters…
Turn A is where the suitability for Tomino’s works is tested.
My little sister recommended G Gundam because she likes Tomokazu Seki.
From there, I smoothly progressed from W to the first generation to ∀, so the entrance really varies for each person.
I had the opportunity to ask a friend, whose gaming knowledge is stuck in the Super Famicom, PS1, and PS2 era, about their favorite Gundam.
It was a dendrobium.
Dendro can’t help it, right?
If you want to see Gundam, it’s best to start with the original series. No dissent is accepted.
My guiding line was G-ARMS.
So last year, the sequel manga was published for the first time as a paperback.
Captain Gundam is actually F91.
Merged with Mask Commander, it turned into the expression of a space cat…
Wow, when I rewatched G Gundam that I saw when I was in elementary school, it was actually quite interesting and different from what I imagined.
Such experiences may be important.
It would be in the order of the theater trilogy, Build Fighters, Seed, and G Gundam.
The rest is long and boring, and the movie requires prior knowledge, so I can’t really recommend it.
>>166
Build is a work aimed at Gundam enthusiasts…
>>167
It’s really well-made as a hobby anime, just because the theme is Gunpla.
There are many scenes that have an otaku vibe, so there might be people who get caught up in that.
>>172
Isn’t it that only kids or otaku watch hobby anime…?
>>175
It’s easy to forget, but Gundam is essentially a hobby anime.
>>175
It’s easy to forget, but Gundam is originally a hobby anime.
>>167
Well, Build was popular with the little kids too.
We must not forget that Gundam tends to be marketed primarily to kids.
Just like with SD, Gundam fans enjoy the original source material, while newcomers (children) can enjoy it regardless of the original source.
It’s been like that for many years.
>>177
It’s compactly organized in 08 and it’s short, making it easy to recommend.
It’s fine if you don’t know about the One Year War other than that place.
During the peak of Bonbon, there were many kids who got into it from SD.
I was more absorbed in watching the Musha OVA than the real one.
It’s fine to look at the history from turn A, X, and Zeta Gundam as well.
What you are concerned about at that moment is justice.
>>169
You’re saying something good, but there’s blood in your stool!!!
I want people who have limited time to check out the compilation video of G Gundam that was recently released on YouTube.
I feel like something is off in recommending works from episode 50.
It might be good to look at shorter and easier-to-read side stories.
Igloo 2 and so on.
I watched Gundam W a few years ago, but I got confused halfway through.
Isn’t it fine to just be straightforward and say it’s a first movie?
>>178
I see… So this island called Kukurus Doan…
It’s something that kids tend to forget to watch, isn’t it?
It’s content that was developed through Bonbon, you know? Gundam.
Poop is in the toilet.
It’s fine if it’s one that you thought was cool among the main characters.
>>185
Many people actually start with the game and then study the original work, following a Smash Bros.-like approach.
I hope the Federation gang sells well thanks to G Generation.
“Shut up, you who has bloody stool.”
Is it not possible to start with Team 08…?
First! First! First!
To be honest, I actually haven’t watched ZZ yet… I have some kind of reluctance towards it.
