Everyone dying for the win. I was quite disappointed with this anime, especially after hearing how amazing it's supposed to be. It was too slow for me and I just couldn't get into it. I didn't really like any of the characters or the plot, and felt like most episodes were just random, uninteresting fights between the A.E.U.G and Titans. |

Hmm for me, the death of captain Henken(?) was the worst, with Kamille losing his sanity coming in at a close second. I must say though that I am one of the people who didn't really sympathise/understand a fair few characters, Emma being just one. Also, felt quite dissatified that Kamille or Char didn't finish off Haman :/ |

Finally... this mess is over... I can't believe how much potential was wasted here... what a monumentally sloppy execution this series had... I don't maybe I should try the movies maybe there I'll get to see the story as it was supposed to be shown... well at least the finalle was ok... |

I enjoyed this one a lot and I think it's better than 0079. I loled at the names: Quattro and Four. Quattro means Four in Italian so basically it's the same. And yeah, Paptimus Scirocco! Anyway... The animation in this one was quite spectacular for a 30 year old anime. It was sad like the rest of the Gundams I watched so far too. Also I think Kamille was an awesome protagonist. And yep, Char rocks! |

An epic ending. I was expecting something more to happen in the end, after Kamille went insane. Nothing did, and that just made it all the more bittersweet. |

Well, I'm overhelmed by the ending. Not a perfect choice to end a series but the pressure what I felt during the latest episodes kinda remained in me. It was really depressing especially the conclusion for Kamille. I don't really know whether he's gone completely crazy or lost his memory but it was impressive. He really has my respect for going through so much and it's really understandably why he did become like that. Scirocco's death was also epic for such an antagonist like him. |

Great ending! Seems that Kamille will finally be able to slow down and start enjoying his life from now on! xD Or maybe not. Guess we'll find out it in MSG:ZZ.=] |

Wow, they pulled out a pretty rare card here. I've only seen a "main character goes insane" ending a few times, but every time, it gives me the fucking goosebumps. It's way more unsettling to me than a final death, because at least that has some sense of closure to it. This was beautifully poetic too, with the themes of the cyber-newtypes reflected in Kamille's fate, and great foreshadowing when he opened his helmet a few episodes ago. Of course, I can guess why everyone hates zz now. I'm willing to bet they turn Kamille into a comedic character, pretty much ruining the end of this show. Ah well, now on to zz to see for myself if it's as bad as they say... |

Ending fits this show perfectly IMO. I felt more so empty than depressed with the ending...really gets you thinking what's the point in fighting a war based on different views and opinions on what's right and wrong, when it is all subjective. Just to set the stage for future wars and bloodshed cycling forever. godamn this show is making me pretentious at the moment |

Seriously this show doesn't even come close to the first series. I don't really care about the ending but the new characters where not good enough with many of them being obnoxious most of the time (and imagine i didn't even like the characters of the first series but suddenly they seemed golden in-frond of this guys), the newtype psycho bullshit reached new levels of stupidity in this one and the worst was the randomness. Fights seemed to unfold out of nowhere making you think you missed something on the previews episode or you skipped an episode. The story wasn't progressive at all. It just jumped from one event to the other just like that and the most stupid thing is that despite the whole jumping around and throwing fights, the show still seemed many times to be boring and slow. I also want to say that Z Gundam has an ugly face and that the opponents this time were completely uninspired. Only that Scirocco guy looked to have some potential but it was never realized. The war it self was just a messy nothing. When fighting with Zeon you knew what it was all about. Now they kind of seem to be fighting just because they had to made another season. |

Wow, what an ending. Poor Kamille. If you think about it Scirocco actually did him more damage than if he had killed him. I have to say that the death I mourn the most is that of Lieutenant Emma. She was one of the better characters in the series. Strong and dependable and yet caring at the same time. And loved the last bit with Char's mobile suit drifting in space. |

Wow, that was spectacular! Doesn't beat the ending of 0079 with Char's epic bazooka headshot though. On to ZZ now.. But no Char! *cries in corner* |

Good ending, if sort of inconclusive, but I guess since there are so many sequels it is to be expected. So Kamille lives, but he's loopy now? Interesting... I overall liked this series way better than the first MSG. With the first one I actually skipped over quite a few episodes just to get to the parts with Char, who I thought was really the only interesting part about the series. But with this series I watched and enjoyed the whole thing. I really liked Kamille. I know people complain that he was an annoying jerk compared to Amuro in MSG, but I liked the not-so-nice aspect of his personality which I thought made him more interesting. And I mean, he was still obviously a caring person, just didn't always show it, which I can sympathize with. I don't know if I will watch ZZ given what I have heard of it, even though I would like to see more of Kamille. Char's counterattack may have to be added to my PTW though. And Unicorn. I have heard great things about Unicorn. |

wanted to add that I just saw the movie version of the ending... I wish they hadn't changed it into a cheesy happy ending. I was waiting for a nice newly animated version of Kamille going whacko and I didn't get it :( I did love how they animated Haman's mannerisms in the movie though, SO cool, I mean she doesn't need better animation to be cool by any means but...anyway, I liked that aspect a lot. |

What a strong ending to an otherwise weak show. Between plotlines that went nowhere for episodes on end (good to see Rosamia come back...of course she died minutes later, huh), to character actions that made no sense (Reccoa? WTF?), to the choppy animation (the original show wasn't pretty by any means, but it looks like Ghibli in comparison to some of this poorly animated mess), and finally to the plot points pulled seemingly out of Tomino's ass (oh, Zeta Gundam's powered by the war dead. Didn't you know?). This show is BY FAR the most overrated anime series I've ever finished. Was it still crap? No. A handful of characters (Char, Bright, Emma, later Kamillle, Haman, and Scirocco) and their interactions single-handedly saved this show from being absolute garbage. I cannot understand why diehard Gundam fans piss all over latter shows like 00 and Seed, but defend this show. The show that set the standard for several of the shittiest plot points for those two shows. There are a few fantastic scenes in this series, but to get to them one must make their way through ridiculous amounts of bad writing and uninteresting characters. Overall: 5/10 |

So tell me guys...what was the lesson to learn here? There were a lot of contrived monologues rambling about how we're supposed to understand each other and whatever, but I fail to see the point in any of it. MSG had one of the best storylines I've seen in anime, but Zeta just doesn't follow with its oft nonsensicality and randomness (the superpowered Zeta at the end, romances that pop up from nowhere, yadda yadda). Perhaps the depressing ending is the only way that Tomino could have made this a memorable piece of work, because this is what I'll remember the show by: anyone who doesn't show up in ZZ artworks died. 6/10 |

Last episode was pretty meh except for the ending. They almost tricked me into liking this series by doing what they did to Kamille. It was a very good ending. Now that's out of the way, Zeta was a mess. Characters being whiny and sometimes acting downright retarded were very annoying. And not because they were selfish teenagers under extreme circumstances, but because the writers made it so obvious that it was a convenient way for them to create conflict. Mecha battles took litteraly more than half of the show, I find it amusing when someone praises Zeta for its plot when there was so little time to properly develop it. And the battles weren't even that memorable, with too many times the outcome feeling like a kick in the nuts. If this is considered the best Gundam, then my expectations for the rest of the metaseries has just reached new lows. |

Zeta Gundam was disappointing for me. I had high expectations to see this anime after finishing the first gundam and foremost, was waiting for a war as epic as the "One Year War." I didnt see it. 6.5/10 for me. Zeta had kept Amuro as protagonist and Char as villain, keeping their rivalry, would be better. |

Overall I liked this show, but ending was meh in my opinion. Guess I'll go to watching Char's counterattack now, since well, Char is my favorite character in whole Gundam universe so it figures I want to see as much of him as possible. And I feel really sad they didn't show what kind of connection Char and Hamam (Haman?) had before this sh?? started happening. I just feel like it would have been really great story in itself. |

A lot of people disliking Zeta it seems. I will have to agree with the fact that it IS a vastly overrated series. It wasn't half of what I was expecting it to be. The problem I had with the show was the poor execution of the plot and practically non existant character development. Episodes seemed disconnected and filled with random battles between AEUG and Titans. However, I liked some bits of the show and it was an overall enjoyable ride. Not my favorite Gundam series but up to par with 0079. 8/10. |

What an epic ending. I wasn't expecting that at all. I really didn't like Kamille much but I admit it, that poor boy's been through a lot. Scirocco's death scene was great, very intense. I had to remind myself that there's a movie called Char's counterattack, I was panicking already XD Overall, 7/10. Why? Well, first of all, for some reason I didn't feel any emotional connection with any of the new characters. Most of the characters were just crazy and didn't have what I would consider a good reason to justify their actions (Reccoa and Katz for example, seriously what were they doing? What's the whole women/men thing Reccoa wanted? And Katz, I know he's just a teenager, but that's not an excuse for doing the stupid things he did). Also I have said it before, I don't like that they use the fact that they are newtypes to justify pretty much everything, I know I shouldn't complain because that's what Univeral Century's Gundam is all about, but this time was extreme. They were justifying crazy romances with the whole newtype connection...That's just kind of ridiculous to me :/) I didn't feel sad with any of the deaths, maybe only Jerid because poor boy, he just wanted to get revenge. Scirocco was one of the only new characters who actually interested me, I feel like he could have been more developed but for some reason they just left it as the interesting manipulative bastard, I wanted more insight on his reasons but oh well... Things I did like: Char (he was just so bamf, can't wait to watch Char's counterattack!) Bright, he's awesome...that is all. I started to like Kamille iin the final 4 episodes and that ending made me like him a bit more. Realistic representation of how cruel wars really are. The little scenes with the White Base crew members. The OST and the first opening. Now ZZ! |

Really loved the ending, super intense action and Camille goes insane. Scirocco was quite disappointing in the end though, he was built up to be such a good villain character. Damn, this series had such an intriguing storyline and a lot of good character concepts, but that dialogue and that execution of battles were just too ridiculous and awkward to justify anything very high. Enjoyment 8.5/10, overall 6/10 |

Great ending. Overall I would say I didn't like this series as much as 0079, the plot moved too quickly and rarely spared a few minutes to build suspense or show the repercussions of any events. I also got sick of Katz sneaking out and fighting every episode. It was still a pretty good watch though. |

Well, I believe this was a good series the year it came out. The problem is everybody here is comparing it with all the new anime, so of course it looks bad, since Zeta Gundam hasn't aged very well. The people who say this is a masterpiece is most likely moved by nostalgia, I believe. Beatnik said: The dude goes through so much crap in this series, its not surprising he'd completely lose it. Ah...Kamille did not "lose it", it was Scirocco who did something to him. Do you remember when he said that he was not going alone when he was dying? Well, that's the result. |

Yes, I also believe most of the problems with this series derives from the fact that it is very old and many aspects of it just haven't aged well. I wonder how a modern interpretation of the series with better pacing, development, direction and animation would fare. It's too bad Tomino screwed up his chance with the New Translation movies, at least according to most of the fans. |

What killed this show for me was the terrible writing, as evidenced by the forced drama and ridiculous ways the writers made certain outcomes happen. It's really a shame, as I greatly enjoyed this show in the first 25 or so episodes, but now I'd give it a 6 or 7 out of 10. |

I was expecting "best gundam of all" , Zeta turned out to be worse than the original 0079 /facepalm. So much crap going it was almost unbearable to watch. 4/10 |

#59
Alright, this ending impressed me. Didn't expect Kamille to go insane like that. Anyway, my only major complaints about Zeta is that there is way too much action and not enough politics and context. But that's probably just because Legend of the Galactic Heroes raised my standards. Also there were a lot of female charcters and only 1 or 2 weren't annoying. Oh and some minor inconsistencies with the characters (probably as a result of a sloppy story board). Anyway, this still was a great Gundam series, Though probably not a favorite of mine, I think I slightly prefer 0079. Well, next time I watch a Gundam it will be ZZ, I hope it's not too bad. |

Okay... okay... okay... It's just like the original MGS! You think they can't possibly bring the series to a good end and then swoosh (like a comet!)! You get the greatest Mecha- Battles you could imagine, Char fighting impossible fights without arms or legs resulting in his "death" in an explosion, all the character development you have missed in the show itself and an unbearable melancholy in the end with everyone just floating around in space. Now going for ZZ. Hope it won't be a complete letdown. |

Damn... just wow. I honestly didn't expect that. No wonder Gundam fans like Kamille and Scirocco so much. According to a die-hard Gundam fan I'm friends with, what happens in the end is that with his last breath, Scirocco uses his Newtype powers to destroy Kamille's mind. Hence his attitude and Fa's reaction. It's very sad but I honestly prefer this to a happy ending. 8/10 from me. The middle of the series was very slow and boring at times and like someone said before, a lot of parts just felt like random, pointless fights between AEUG and the Titans. Still, it's an awesome show. |

Yay, Kamille uses super powers by channelling dead people to make Gundam go faster. Then he penetrates Scirocco's cockpit and then Scicorro makes Kamille insane with his super powers. Nooo Emma died. :( She was coolest pilot in Z Gundam. Haman managed to get away without scratch so I guess we will see her in the ZZ. I am not against that since I liked her as a villian. I didn't really like Z, it had too much pointless battles and annoying characters (Katz, Fa, Irma..). Also I don't really like how newtypes can warn each other from across battlefield just by knowing that something bad is going to happen. It is annoying to see them saved from otherwise certain death. |

Strangely enough the whole Zeta series has made me appreciate 0079 way more. I much prefer the ending from 0079, in fact that one left me speechless. Now I will have to rewatch the last episode again and rethink my stance on that one. Anyway back to this, I was bummed that Emma died. I truly believe she could have slapped Kamille back into sanity had she still been alive. About Char...well there's nothing left to the imagination when there's a movie called later in the timeline called Char's Counterattack. How I wished I would have watched this series as it was airing. I wasn't even born until a year after this finished airing. Yeah I'm going to preach to the choir here but too many irritating characters. My enjoyment suffers when the large part of the cast is composed of such annoying people that made lots of episodes just plainly tedious. I would have liked to see more of the people that were not annoying namely Haman and Char. Like Char is a fabulous man and the effort is just wasted when instead you're thinking that a series needs less whiny kids but more fabulous people. BTW did we even learn why so many females wanted Scirocco's dick so badly? I was expecting him to tell Kamille that he could manipulate sexual urges and that is why he had all the ladies flocking to him. I would like to see this and 0079 remade. I know there is/was a remake in the works (?). Old animation is a nice throwback and nostalgia factor no doubt, but I also like shiny and new things. Here's hoping that Unicorn won't let me down as much as this did. Wow someone who thinks exactly like me. 0079 is Masterpiece compared to Zeta. The ending didn't even affect me at all because I didn't give a shit about any of the characters, they were so dumb that dying is actually a great service for humanity (olol) |

Scirocco had the best death, imo. Gets stabbed by a mobile suit and still manages to mind break Kamille. And honestly, I don't see how I'm supposed to feel sad that Kamille is mind broken. I found his new attitude the best he's been since episode 1. I found MSG's ending better because it doesn't leave on a blank sad note, but a more hopeful one. I get the sense that the characters were a true team in the very end, that MSG accomplished something. That's what made the ending good. It's what makes you want to see more of the future, more of these characters. Nothing about Zeta's ending made me feel any of that. Being a sequel, it's supposed to improve on the issues of its' predecessor. Yet it seems to make the same mistakes and makes them worse while creating new ones. That's pretty much the issue with Zeta. The plot is shallower than a kiddie plot and yet I felt it got lost in all the "conflict" due to mediocre writing. It's much too easy to get lost as to what is going on with the many plot threads the show tries to takes on. And many of those threads ended unsatisfactory. Most of the battles were so boring; there's not enough cool battles. The characters are like what others have said: irritating. Since characters can make or break a show, it's unacceptable how many are so irritating. EDIT: After seeing 08th Team, I'm downgrading Zeta to a 4/10. A 4 feels right for this show. Zeta would of been better if it had improved on what made MSG good and what sucked about MSG. And used the older characters better along with the new ones while making them likable. The seven years between MSG and Zeta sounded better than what Zeta actually delivered. |

I don't understand why people talk about this series like it's the best thing ever. They always talk about how realistic the characters are and whatnot, but I can't imagine any actual people behaving the way most of these characters do. I absolutely hate how characters just randomly fall in love with each other for no reason, like Parfaited said in regards to Scirocco. He was a chick magnet because the plot required him to be, but few things about this show bother me more than Reccoa's betrayal. She had a mission and ideals, but all of a sudden she sees a hot guy and then randomly betrays everyone she cares about. Scirocco's apparently so unbelievably hot that women take one look at him and decide it's okay to throw away absolutely everything they've ever worked for. It'd be different if she was the only character that didn't make any sense at all, but most of them are that way. They just do things because the plot calls for them to do things, even if it goes against what we know about them. This show might as well have been called, "Mobile Suit Gundam: Lobotomy Patients in Space." |

So many of the comments here are spot, i wish i could quote them all to sum of my views. Zeta has its moments but is greatly flawed. Too much suspension of disbelief is required. Many characters act in a completely unbelievable manner. Drama is forced for the sake of drama, with little sense behind it. It's also Impossible to marathon and feels like a drag to finally get to the end. It took me nearly a year to finish this after going on hold multiple times for months. I finally buckled down and went through the 2nd half in a day, and though there were some great parts and it evoked emotion if you can willingly suspend disbelief, i still desperately just wanted to be done with it. The ending was fitting i guess, with almost everyone dying, and Kamille going insane due to a COMBINATION of Pimptimus's dying unexplained Newtype Curse Mind Break, and the stress and weight of all the tragedies Kamille experienced up until that point. I want to see Char's resolution since he is my fav character from the original gundams, but ZZ is the prequel to Char's Counterattack, and I can't muster the strength to trudge through 47 grueling episodes anytime soon. Not helping matters is ZZ's horrible rating of under 7, over a full point behind MSG and Zeta, which is worrisome since the originals were greatly flawed as is... I can't even imagine the mess ZZ will be. Still that being said for its time the show had some great strength's, so a 7/10 seems fair. |

The funny thing is that I actually posted a same kind of rage comment here just like a month ago when I watched this, but then had to remove it because the magic of Gundam (?) hit me and I felt the urgent need to rise Zeta's score up to 9 from 6/10. Don't ask me why, but it was a slow burn in the real sense of the word for me. I'm already feeling like rewatching it, honestly. Only the OP makes me all nostalgic lol. First I want to see at least every other UC Gundam though. Then I probably watch the 0079 movies and rewatch Zeta, because the Zeta movies were apparently horrible. |

I though it was a strong albeit depressing ending, the fate that awaited kammille was something way more heartbreaking to witness than his death. I am very satisfied with the series as a whole and am giving it a high 8/10. Some pacing issues and un-charismatic villains prevent it from getting a 9 from me |

Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |

The last few episodes were great. The finale was pretty depressing. I wish they showed more of Char and Hamans past relations. I want to watch Char's counterattack but it's a sequel to ZZ. Might just skip ZZ since it gets so much hate. Overall I give Zeta an 8/10 |
