Koby Posted January 8, 2011 Report Share Posted January 8, 2011 Gundam 00 is set by itself. Only the other 00 series/movies go with it.Gundam Seed goes with Gundam Seed Destiny and the rest of the Seed related stuff.Gundam Unicorn fits with all the U.C. timeline series and to get the full story it's recommended you watch the other U.C. timeline stuff before watching it.There is 4 TV series in the U.C. timeline a long with tons of movies, ova's, and specials.I have made my own timeline of sorts that helps people understand what goes together and where. Here it is:0-------------0 |(Legend)-----||-Movie-------||---OVA-------||-----Special-|0-------------0Mobile Suit Gundam (1979) -Mobile Suit Gundam Movie 1 (1981)-Mobile Suit Gundam II: Soldiers of Sorrow (1981)-Mobile Suit Gundam III: Encounters in Space (1982)------Mobile Suit Gundam MS IGLOO: The Hidden One Year War (2004)---Mobile Suit Gundam MS IGLOO: Apocalypse 0079 (2006)---Mobile Suit Gundam MS IGLOO 2: Gravity of the Battlefront (2008)------Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team (1996)-Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team - Miller's Report (1998)---Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket (1989)---Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory (1991)-Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: The Fading Light of Zeon (1992)---Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam (1985)-Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam: A New Translation -Heir to the Stars- (2005)-Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam: A New Translation II -Lovers- (2005)-Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam: A New Translation III -Love is the Pulse of the Stars- (2006)Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ (1986)-----Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ - Gundam Frag.

MABFanForLife Posted January 8, 2011 Report Share Posted January 8, 2011 Dang. I knew the Gundam series was huge, but I didn't think it was that big. It'd be hard to keep up with them all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koby Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 30th Gundam Perfect Mission (2009)Whats this koby?30th Gundam Perfect Mission is a 2 minute special that was released in 2009 to celebrate the 30th Anniversary of the Gundam Anime since the first Gundam Anime was made in 1979.It simply shows off some of the various Gundam's that had been made at that time.

Tza Posted January 11, 2011 Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 Just watch G Gundam.Best and most unique series out of them all.Think Street fighter but with Gundams plus its doesnt have the depressing war hanging over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koby Posted January 11, 2011 Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 Just watch G Gundam.Best and most unique series out of them all.Think Street fighter but with Gundams plus its doesnt have the depressing war hanging over it.I thought aside from Zeta, G Gundam was the worst TV series of Gundam. I only gave it a 6/10 review after watching it. It's just too whack with reviving/regenerating Gundam's, reviving/regenerating humans, and all fights end the exact same 'Shining Fingers' or 'Burning Fingers' and grab the head.

Zanbuki Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 I thought aside from Zeta, G Gundam was the worst TV series of Gundam. I think you're the only person I've ever seen call Zeta one of the worst Gundams. This wouldn't be odd to me, if it wasn't for the fact I see alot of peple say Zeta's one of the best.

Koby Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 I think you're the only person I've ever seen call Zeta one of the worst Gundams. This wouldn't be odd to me, if it wasn't for the fact I see alot of peple say Zeta's one of the best.I've seen everything listed above aside from Victory, After War, and Turn-A and well I tried, I really tried to like Zeta but to me it was boring after just finishing 0079. It just seem lighter and repetitive and while the actual Zeta Gundam is one of my favorite Gundam's I just couldn't really get into the series. It simply fell flat and I couldn't care what happened to most of the characters. Honestly I think I kind of disliked Kamille and his constant childish attitude and whining. I don't know, it could just be I watched it right after finishing 0079 and I felt it didn't live up to the original series. Most of the enemies in Zeta were lame as well.I might be weird when I say this but of all the Gundam related Anime these are my top 3:Gundam 08th MS TeamGundam 0079Gundam Seed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anubis Posted January 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 I have started watching Gundam 00, so far so good ..... after that i think i'll go for Gundam Seed and destiny and finally unicorn - provided that I dont loose interest in the series ;p Koby ma mate you have been a great help - Thanx for that and I figured since the story isnt related there is no point in watching cartoons from the stone age with crapy animation! Besides the print for Gundam 00 i got from this forum is top notch .. makes you fall in love with the mechs =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myrodis19 Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 Personally i found Gundam Seed and Gundam Seed Destiny to be the best. it not only had good action but also a very good story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koby Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 I have posted the majority of the Gundam franchise on the forum for download. However if you want top-notch quality for some of them you can try OZC-Anime for the ones we don't have in HD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bj-petersen Posted January 15, 2011 Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 No you wouldn't be missing anything because all three gundam shows are placed in different eara's and have different story lines to them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tza Posted January 15, 2011 Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 I guess everyone is entitled to their opinion.Personally i couldnt take anyone who ranks Gundam Seed high seriously.For the better gundam series stick to the universal century (0079/Zeta/08th MS Team/Double Zeta/Chars Counterattack/Victory/Stradust Memory etc)Avoid: Gundam Seed/Seed Destiny/Gundam Wing/Gundam X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
