It was either this movie or some tv series they were contemplating about releasing a while back. Regardless, if she were to die, then it would make things very interesting. We'd get to see Kira go psycho... No offense for you Kira and Lacus fans out there :P. I doubt any of the popular characters are going to die, considering CE isn't exactly known for killing off popular characters, or leaving them dead when they do "die." But hey, maybe Fukuda will give Bandai the finger, throw character polls out the window and actually kill one of the big four (I'm personally hoping for a Kira death). lmao. I still think it would be an intresting twist if she were to die. Hey, a kira death is fine to :P. I like Athrun, he's a bit more realistic to me, so I hope they dont kill him off. ![]() ![]() |

I just hope they finish this up quickly so they can get to work on Dendoh season 2. Seriously, it's been like five years since they announced it. |

De character Development between Lacus and Kira was during the year between Seed and Seed destiny. a year later there a nice couple and what development could be placed in destiny? a sex scene -.-. I agree with the Athrunxcagalli ending it was to stupid for words and I missed the reason why it didnt work out (can some1point that out for me btw? ty) anyways stop whining about the kiraxlacus thingy. It was nice to see how there relationship have progressed in that year. And yes Kira ownes in destiny. I found it really "cool" that despite all world power and new models the old Freedom and kira's skill still outdates all. the first 23 eps u see a struggle between 2 forces, and then Freedom comes in a quikley ends it all. hows that not cool? |

Kira and Lacus were both pieces of cardboard in Destiny, Lacus never had any character development ever. And if there was no room to progress Kira any further, he shouldn't have become the main character again 2/3 of the way through, that's just a sign of terrible writting. I agree with the Athrunxcagalli ending it was to stupid for words and I missed the reason why it didnt work out (can some1point that out for me btw? ty) Another sign of bad writting >.> anyways stop whining about the kiraxlacus thingy. It was nice to see how there relationship have progressed in that year. Their relationship didn't go anywhere :x. They have to be one of the lamest couples I've ever seen. And yes Kira ownes in destiny. I found it really "cool" that despite all world power and new models the old Freedom and kira's skill still outdates all. the first 23 eps u see a struggle between 2 forces, and then Freedom comes in a quikley ends it all. hows that not cool? I don't really know what to say here. For one the 'old' Freedom is pretty much on par with the Impulse in most cases, and actually comes out ahead in terms of firepower and battery power (Kira has a nuclear reactor so he doesn't need to recharge like Shinn does). Moving on, I don't find it 'cool' when Kira just flies around dodging fancily, having his computer auto-target, and then beamspam entire armies into the ground. I don't find it 'cool' when the 'good guys' come in and win a flawless victory against a force much larger than their own. I like to see struggle, not that laughable ridiculous last battle and I like to see some skill when it comes to piloting, not having your Gundam do all the work for you. Not to mention Freedom didn't end anything, the battles he was intervening in with his Freedom were between one Zaft ship (with a grand total of 2 Gundams and 2 grunts for an army) and an Orb/EA fleet. All Kira did was start shooting the hell out of both sides, which in the end, just made the Minerva worse off, but didn't actually get anything done other then make himself an enemy of both sides (and people were angry at Shinn for taking down Kira rofl :x). And his excuse when confronted by Athrun was 'because Cagalli is crying' - sounds more like 'idiot' than 'cool' to me. I'll say it again, I'm glad you guys liked Destiny, but to me it will always be a prime example of what not to do with Gundam. |

hmm well i can agree with some points raised in the posts in here. it's true character development was not good in GSD i must agree compared to older Gundam series the 'skill' to fly a gundam and attack has worsened down to having the most armaments (i mean how many beam wepoans does the freedom have + the DRAGOON system lmao), especially when you look at how Gundam 00 is...very much difference here most of the characters just have basic motives and that's it i know Kira is like some kind of God and i doesn't do the stroy good due to plotholes and stuff but sometimes i don't mind the whole 'unstoppable hero' thing just because it's entertaining, nothing less...if i were to need a deeper level on all the anime i watch, not many would survive... if for whatever reason i enjoy a series it's like that besides all these points i did still enjoy GSD simply because while the battles were cheesy i still found myself watching them in awe...also the music does great to the battles i really hope this movie is done and i will definatly watch it. Small note; where is it said that the impulse is not nuclear powered (me thinks deuterion beam to power up is connected to nuclear power??) ![]() MAL list updates |

Come to think of it, didn't anyone realize that the movie was delayed yet again because the director was, and probably is now, sick at the moment so development of the movie has been halted for a while. What I would like to see is more original moves of the mobile suits/Gundams in the movie, for this is the trend I've noticed in the 2 series. |

Stjeppe said: Small note; where is it said that the impulse is not nuclear powered (me thinks deuterion beam to power up is connected to nuclear power??) "Because the Junius Treaty bans the use of N-Jammer Cancelers in mobile suits, ZAFT develops the deuterion beam energy supply system to recharge a mobile suit's battery. When the Impulse Gundam's energy runs low, it can receive the incoming energy beam from its mothership Minerva and completely recharge its battery. This new system allows longer combat time" source: http://www.mahq.net/mecha/gundam/index.htm Kira was actually breaking the Junius Treaty by keeping the Freedom in his basement. Even if the deuterion beam is powered by nuclear power it still puts the Impulse at a disadvantage since he needs to recharge. I also forgot to mention that Freedom is lighter than the Impulse when the Impulse is equipped with any of it's packs. darkxdestiny said: Come to think of it, didn't anyone realize that the movie was delayed yet again because the director was, and probably is now, sick at the moment so development of the movie has been halted for a while. Actually it was the directors wife (aka the main writter) who was sick, apparently she recently recovered though. |

Astaroth said: ooo maybe the movie hasn't been canned like I thought. Reports from Japanese sites, such as Ayano☆Diary, say the most recent issue of Animage gives a long-awaited update on the situation surrounding the Gundam SEED movie, originally announced back in May of 2006. Chiaki Morosawa, who was the subject of an interview, says the plot has been done for some time now but that following the end of SEED Destiny, she fell ill, underwent examinations, and currently goes to the hospital for treatment. Apologizing more than once, she states the delay was simply due to that and though there isn't a plan in place, she has no lack of energy so she asks fans to please wait a little longer. taken from http://aeug.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html Good news to the SEED fanbase. Unfortunatly it seems Morosawa is still handling the script :x. well that is good to hear, i am a huge fan of seed, definetly looking forward to this. |

Astaroth said: Requal said: Remake of Char's Counterattack plz. Yzak's Counterattack there is nothing for him to counterattack about (he even healed his scar already) i think more like Shinn's Counterattack (which will no doubt get pwn by Kira again....or Athrun) |

But even then, it's not like Char's counterattack was an actual counterattack, considering he had worked with Amuro the last time we saw him. And why would it be Shinn's Counterattack over Yzak? They both serve ZAFT, so why would one be more likely over the other? I also think you need to rewatch Destiny, Shinn's the one who took down Kira, and then fought him to a standstill from that point on. It was Athrun who 'pwned' Shinn. |

Interesting how the discussion turns into a recurrence of events in past Gundam series and Gundam SEED series discussion. |

I actually like the first 13 or so episodes quite a bit (alot more than SEED's at that), but things just got worse and worse with the reintroduction of Kira. That and I'm a pretty big Gundam fan and SEED/Destiny come up quite a bit in Gundam discussion boards. |

The movie will probably be about some nostalgic fellows who decide to drop a big rock onto earth. After that, A NEW WAR STARTS. fapfap. |

Valashu said: I agree with the Athrunxcagalli ending it was to stupid for words and I missed the reason why it didnt work out (can some1point that out for me btw? ty) While I didn't like how Athrun and Cagalli ended up, I do understand why things took the turn they did. I just hope in the movie they wind up together again. Kill off the little fangirl Meiryn. :P Anyway, Athrun had asked Cagalli to marry him. The next thing he knows is she's marrying Yuna, whom she was already engaged to but didn't love. Athrun could never understand why she just didn't end it with Yuna as he and Lacus did. (Although, it was completely different circumstances.) When Athrun finally meets up again with Cagalli, he has that rush of emotions of what he was thinking when he heard she was getting married. When you're angry, you don't think straight. And even though he said he understood, he really didn't. It hurt him very badly. He evens states, "Some things are unforgivable . . . even to me." (This being said by someone who's killed countless people.) Well, now they're finally back together (on the same ship) and Cagalli is treating a wounded (almost killed) Athrun. And even though it looks like everything might be okay as Cagalli is wearing Athrun's ring again, they are still at odds. This is because so much time has passed where they haven't talked. Now, it's feeling more like they can't talk. (It's a pride thing.) Cagalli takes off the ring but asks Meiryn to watch over Athrun. Cagalli realizes Athrun still needs time to heal his heart and she can't be there for him. (You can tell because she's crying.) Athrun also realizes they need some time apart to think but he's still in love with her and is determined to watch over her from a distance. (There's a conversation between him and Kira about this.) I hope this helped. The one thing I've learned watching various Gundam series is that they aren't in your face with character developments. You have to really pay attention to every little thing they do and say and it can be easily missed. Again, I don't like that this happened but it's very realistic. I didn't really understand it until recently. My best friend and I stopped talking a year ago. Looking back, it's for the stupiest reason ever but am I racing to go become her friend again? No. Why? Because in my mind, if it could fall apart so easily, was there really anything there to begin with? I don't want to take the chance to get my heart stomped on again. And this is parallel to what I see between Athrun and Cagalli. One day, it'll work out again. Just not now. ^_~ |

If we're talking about a character dying it couldn't be Kira it would just be unheard of, it would go against his character as being the "Ultimate Coordinator". I wouldn't want Athrun or Lacus to die either cause of their characters importance. But if Lacus was to die, he would go mentally insane and blow who ever killed her into kindom come. The only real character I would wanna see die would be Shinn Asuka. I always hated him, I wished he have died in Destiny. |
