So, after a week of being sick and after barely making it out of school today. I have decided to take the final bullet and throw myself to the abyss and try to review the Gundam series that for many is the most hated but for me is the greatest of them all.
So, the Director of this show is Mr. Imagawa ( I would right is name but I forgot :P ). He is the very same that did the Epic OAV of Giant Robo, and just recently Tentujin 28. He is a really great artist but it seems that he decided to stop directing and know he is writting. I would not blame him after all it took him almost 8 years to finish 6 OAVs.
Well what is G Gundam about you might ask, right?
Well G Gundam is about love, hatred, passion, awesome fighting martial artist that control giant robots and ... ... ..., comedy? well I guess that it is. Oh, before I forget, it has nothing to do with military power, fight between colonies, etc (well, maybe a little).
The main protagonist of this Show is Domon Kasshu (what a name), well this guy is a loner that walks around the world in order to kill his brother and while he is doing that he is to fight Gundam from different Nationalities. Well you see, this is because in the future there are no wars but there are fighting tournaments where one representative from each nation is to sacrifice himself in order to win the tournament so his/her country will govern the world for 4 years (i think in the future people will believe that fights are a lot more entertaining than democracy).
Yeah, I was forgetting why he wants to kill his brother. Well basically because one day he came to his home after training and it looks like his brother betrayed his father, kills his mother and took over his father's research to take over the world and destroy it. So he he has to kill him.
So, he embarks in an awesome adventure where he finds friends, love, passion, deception, hatred, etc.
This series has it all. The final episodes are a mixture of shoujo melodramatic romance with the most metal shonen action fighting scenes ever (well until neo getter robo came).
If you are a guy, watch this series, because is awesome.
If you are a girl, watch this series because of the drama and romance at the end ( well the last 15 episodes).
This robots are power by feelings (I think) and you know that the strong feeling is .... (yeah that word). So you know how the end is gonna be.
If you are still undecided, please watch the pictures from this web page:

But it's still not worse M.D. Geist.
I mean, is kung fu with giant robots and over the top and ridiculous. After my classes I used to get home and watch it and I felt good. And the plot was something that I never see it coming. I guess it is good for me in the same way Initial D is good for you. Do not get me wrong I also like Initial D.
I love this show.
Shining Finger!
G Gundam falls into the so-bad-its-awesome category for me. Not unlike the Evil Dead series, actually.
God, that show was just so hilarious. I think my favorite episode is the one where the American Gundam has to fight Portugal's Clown Gundam- only the American pilot has this psychotic aversion to clowns. I nearly fell out of my chair when they did the terrorist clown circus flashback.
No Scott, Gundam G-savior sucks, it's so bad I don't even count it as a member of the gundam series.
