Story and Characters

This awesome sequel to Mobile Suit Gundam MS IGLOO: The Hidden One Year War picks up where the prequel left off, with Lieutenant Oliver May and the 603 Technical Division Unit aboard the Jotunheim continuing testing and evaluating experimental weapons to aid the Zeon war effort against the Federation Forces. A war effort that is not going to well for the Zeon.

These 3 OVAs tell stories of another different weapons and their technical champions. The first is about a deep see diving mobile suit piloted by a seaman, who is lovingly and very realistically rendered. He had the best backstory, which is amazing read more

The sequel to MS IGLOO: The One Year War, MS IGLOO: Apocalypse 0079, continues the adventures of the 603rd Technical Division as the One Year War comes to a close. The sequel follows the same formula with a new weapon being introduced in each episode and a pilot to fly it. The final two episodes are strung one after another and don't have the time gap that is evident in the other episodes. The final two episodes are very action oriented and, in my opinion, don't do as a good a job in respects to storytelling.

The animation is the same CG as the first OVA, read more

NOTE: This is literally my review from MS IGLOO: The Hidden One Year War, but Apocalypse 0079 is so bad in the same ways i'm not even going to waste my time writing a new one when the old one fits perfectly.

TL;DR: I can only imagine die hard Gundam fans watching this and enjoying it ironically.

Oh man. This was a complete mess. From every standpoint. The CGI doesn't hold up at all. Everything looks like a bad PS2 cutscene. The facial expressions where so exaggerated at times I bursted out laughing.
The story is non existent. Because this is supposed to show us the OYW thru read more

When I saw the concept of this series, I was instantly sold. A "Weird OYW" show about failed Zeon weapons? It sounded amazing. I still have to admit some of the ideas are rather cool - the giant laser platform for starters.

However, why does it get an overall 5 then? Because it's distinctly lacking in a lot of ways. The CGI is good when the MS and vehicles are on screen, but the characters cycle through absurd facial expressions. I don't know if this poor quality is a limitation of CGI or an intentional homage to the wacky perspective and animation errors of Mobile Suit read more
