Comments on each entry :

Turn A : the setting is great, the characters are great, the plot is sometimes dumb but very entertaining, and the ending is awesome. Also it has my favorite OST in all anime.

Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam : still watching it for now, but already loving it. It's like Logh all over again (less good, but still !) The music is super cool. The characters interactions are.....clumsy, but it doesn't bother me

Mobile Suit Gundam the Origin : need rewatch after having gone through UC

Mobile Suit Gundam Thunderbolt : my first one, it's really great, too bad it's so short

Mobile Suit Gundam Hathaway : it's only the first movie, it's great, and it can become insanely good.

Mobile Suit Gundam : excellent on paper, but the realisation is old and very dated. The final movie is still quite good

Mobile Suit Gundam Wing : I just love how everything is over the top.
