The real big problem with Age is the pacing there is a big reason for that. Akihiro Hino, the one who is in charge of the script, Age was his first time doing an animated show for his entire life. Before that he was more associated in making video games which is fine. The problem is, since he was used to pace video games, he decided and tried to pace Gundam Age as if it's a sequence of Video game cutscenes. That is why the writing and the pacing is bad. He though it's the same thing but when in reality it is not.

That is why i really don't hate on Age that much unlike Fukuda and his wife with Gundam Seed Destiny because Akihiro Hino is a complete newbie and hey at least he tried right? At least Age knows it's protagonists, at least it doesn't have recycled animation and flash backs that shoves everything into your face, and at least the characters are not Gary Stu and Mary sue(Jesus Yamato and Lacus says Hi).

The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.

This series is deliciously fun to watch, though I would hate to have that happen to my models after losing a game. :(
So long as you yourself enjoy it, what does the thoughts of others matter to you?

I stopped watching Gundam a couple of years ago, but this anime has re-ignited my passion for it again, and this episode was really great and I really like Reiji.

Why the heck didn't I pick this up sooner?! I never watched anything Gundam before but this was really nice. Really liked the BGM during the whole episode. Granted, I picked it up mostly for Rinko who's without a doubt MILF of the year but there's also that cute girl in Sei's class. This should be a fun addition to the currently airing shows I'm watching.

Sure it's a kid's show, but I liked it. It was entertaining and cute! Has that Pokemon or Yu-Gi-Oh feel to it, and reminds me of when I was a kid into all these shows.

Haven't seen any of the other Gundam shows yet. I will do so.

Pretty good start! I really like the concept. The characters aren't the best, but let's see if they develop them better.

The Pokegundam fights are cool. I wish they could do that in real life, though it would get rather expensive. Most 1/144 models range form $20-40, so it would suck when you lost battles. Especially if you took the time to customize them like he does.

I think this will be a good show, though they are gonna have to step up some drama or comedy if it's going to last for a typical Gundam run of 39-52 episodes.

Urahara Out!!

I feel the same but the artwork(and that milf) was really nice so maybe i'll watch a little more. Usually i avoid kiddy shows but maybe it's time i watch one. Besides If i am gonna watch one of this is better if it's with Gundams than cards, pokemons or those things that go round and round lol.

Gonna check it out later/tonight.


Trying to sell figures i guess. It seems they make good money out of them.

I like Reiji. The other guy is okay too.

Putting it on hold for now. Not bad, not terrific either.

Hmm,seems this might be more than just visual mecha porn for me.

Great start.Actually generally interested in the GunPla Battles more than I expected too.

Dat blooming friendship.

If the story doesn't led up I'll continue this for the mecha porn battles either way.

The music is great and the visuals are actually really good.
I can see why people wouldn't like it because they are still...kids...
I'm not sure if I'll keep watching but I don't think that was bad... just a bit weird

Sei, you can't lose with Wing Gundam.
You've disgraced Heero, Sei. smh

Dat ED song. BACK ON!

Okay episode. Loved the Wing scenes. Ironic that I watch this on October 7th, the day the episode first aired, 4 years later. I did that intentionally. Originally, back when this first started, I had no intention of watching, but I changed my mind recently, plus seeing the fan art of the mom over the years played a big part. :)
If you see that my post is exactly 1 month old (or more) from when it was posted... Don't waste your time, especially when you want to reply with something petty & insignificant. Assume that I've moved on (because I have).

I haven't known what to make of this series but finally decided to watch it. It was good. At first, it felt a lot like a big ad, which it basically is, but this episode came through. I liked the characters and was genuinely interested in Reiji is + Ramba Ral's appearance was cool. Reiji seems like a Yami Yugi kind of figure at the moment, and the rest of the show is in a similar vein being an anime about kids who are really into hobbies in a world that's dedicated to those hobbies.

Well that was kinda BS LOL

Sei would've lost the match if Reiji didn't show up to save him.

Are you telling me it's okay to take control of someone else's Gunpla in the middle of the match? That judge was so biased too! Tf you mean a great match? Someone interrupted the match to take control! XD

At least the mom's hot <3
