    Gundam, as a whole.

    I've decided, no matter how long it may take, to watch every Gundam seriers.

    I'm not sure if I want to watch them in order, but I think not.

    Which should I start with?

    skip the second season of Gundam SEED.
    seriously.
    It adds nothing to the series, and is in fact, the same exact show as season 1 except with different names.

    SEED wasnt that bad. It was by far not one of the good gundam series, but Ive seen lots of worse anime.
    Destiny on the other hand, there was no excuse for that.
    Spoiler: show
    every time gundam series is talked about it turns into this discussion!

    It would have been bearable if it was a 24 episode or so series, but the fact it was a 50*2 just makes it obnoxious.

    It's like nobody at any point realized just how retarded the whole thing is.

    I personally enjoyed SEED a bit more than 00. Who cares if its 50x2 when you are sitting through and watching a batch of them at once.

    Only thing that annoys me about watching stuff in bulk is skipping the OP/ED every episode. I'm a weird kind of lazy...

    There is something really fucking wrong with you if you honestly go through all 100 episodes of seed and destiny without hating either yourself, gundam, or the world.

    In my case, I can only blame myself for actually putting myself to it, and that was only SEED, I can't even begin to imagine what would have happened if I watched destiny.

    Destiny is fine until Kira steals the show from Shinn then you should stop watching it. I believe it's ep 1-13 until kira comes to fuck it up.

    edit: yep 13 is when kira comes to destroy the anime. IF I mean IF you do watch it only watch till 13.

    I dropped the show around that point

    It started pretty good...not incredible, but the setting was nice, the music was good, there was some interesting characters...then they trashed everything.

    Yep. Completely agree. Destiny at first seemed like something sort of innovative, and it didn't resemble SEED exactly, what with Shinn already in the military and all, but then Kira shows up in Episode 13 and him with AA steals the show. I liked Kira somewhat in SEED, but in Destiny, him and Lacus just go "THIS SERIES IS NOW GUNDAM SEED KIRA LACUS!"

    I still watched all of it. :/ I loved the music. Once the OST came out, I was rather happy at least.

    To me nothing about DESTINY was likable in the least. While the series goes to shit once Kira steals the show, I already thought Shinn was a whiny little dipshit of a main character, so I didn't even like the first part either.
