| As in the title, which mobile suit is your fave? It doesn't have to be a Gundam obviously. A short comment on the choice would be nice. |
     |
| The Exia , Union Flag/Overflag, Tieran (best Zaku redesion since the Hi-Zack in Zeta), Dynames, Throne Zwei, Ahead, Seravee, and 00 Gundam. Yeah, I'm a mech-head >_> |
 |
| Seravee Gundam :D So fat, so strong looking, so full of positive WTFness (like those nicely hidden arms and beam sabers XDDD And there's gonna be at least one more surprise XD). And that firepower *___* Exia was awesome too, especially the Terminator version (though will admit the Terminator Exia was awesome mostly for how cool it looked) :D And the 00 Raiser for its sheer power when it goes Trans-Am. Plus it looks very good. Cherudim is awesome too. And Arche Gundam (it's kinda like General Grie-- ok, no SW references rofl). I also loved Graham's Custom Flag and I miss Soma's Tieren Taozi. |

rah-rah said: Ariana said: I didn't even know if anyone LIKED the pink death :pI miss Soma's Tieren Taozi. So now you know XD |
|
| You know though, is it just me or does Arche gundam look like a Fafner >_>? |
| |
| It does look very much like a Fafner. But I liked Fafners too. Only don't remember if any had such funny "high heels" XD |
|
| Design wise the Tierens were probably my favourite suits... not necessarily because they were my favourites aesthetically (because they weren't), but because in my mind they seemed like a logical step in weapons progression. I looked at the Tierens and I saw something akin to a tank (The HRL's Jiachong on the Gundam wiki is even closer (and meh, the Unions Realdo Hover Tank is a tank so... )). I also liked that the pilots of the Tierens were always wearing those weird breathing masks. I wasn't fond of the pink one though. I found it laughably absurd... oh look, a girl pilot, lets paint her tank pink. Considering that she was a supersoldier I kept wondering if having a suit that stuck out like a sore thumb in combat would be an advantage or a disadvantage. Really though, the pink Tieren Taozi's main problem was that for no reason other than its colour, it reminded me of this: I was also quite fond of the AEU Hellions. They looked more armoured and less spikey and flag-like than the Enact. (On a similar note I liked Virtue because it was also covered in tons of armour and it wasn't particularly spikey, but the fact it was essentially rather slow was a downside) Its not that I don't like spikey suits though. I mean, aesthetically that Kyrios variant from the pictures (gust?) was spikey and that looked pretty awesome. I found myself really liking the Abulhool pre-Kyrios variants too. They remind me of fighter planes. As a random aftercomment... I haven't yet decided what I think of Gadessa and Garazzo, but, odd though it may sound... I like that neither of them have proper feet. And that Garazzo has claws. I know I've been rambling about the Earth's suits rather than Celestial Being's Gundams, but its easier to do really. The earths suits had a lot more variation, whereas in my mind the Gundams sort of fell into the the 'melee, range, cannon, speed' stereotypes :x |

| I like that the gundams are specialized personally, and how they are normally launched in pairs to compenate their weaknesses. That and I find Virtue's FUCK YOU beam both awesome and hilarious. Also like how each of the gundams fit each of the meisters personalities (in obvious and subtle ways). |
| |
| I'm so indecisive about this. I like all of them Exia/00, Kyrios/Arios, Dynames/Cheridum, Virtue/Seravee >..< First I like Virtue/Seravee such nice fatty owned Gundamu :D I like Kyrios/Arios' flight mode so much :D Cheridum's newest feature (if I'm not wrong) in episode 13 was so great. I like Exia's strong fighting skills. Terminator Exia was super cool :D 00 also with 0-Raizer a 00-Raiser IS a greatness! Archer looks cool I'm looking forward to see it with Arios *__* |
| I also really like the Tierens. Like Ephi said, their design is logic considering technology evolution. They're really cool, those weird masks the pilots used as well XD Terminator Exia was awesome. But more because of the look than because of the suit itself XD I like how each Gundam has its strong and weak points. And they sure fit their meisters personalities :D |
 |
| Pink or not, Soma made Tieria reveal Nadleeh using her Taozi XD I liked it how each of the power blocks used their own unique mecha. And yes, Terminator Exia just looked cool, but gosh, HOW cool! :D And it's better that each of the Gundams is specialized in one area. It's better to be very good at one thing that just rather good at everything. If there was only one unit, it wouldn't be that great, but since there are four, cooperation makes it possible for things to work out well. And in season 2 some of the Gundams' weak points were eliminated. Even Seravee can suddenly surprise the enemy with a funny hidden arm and a beam saber. It's not totally useless in close combat anymore unless it goes against a very good pilot in a melee unit. Can't wait to see GN Archer in action, I hope I'll start respecting Soma again ;__; |
|
| You are right on that front. The suits complement each other because they're specialised, which is a good thing. Arguably I'd say that Allelujah's advantage of being the speedy suit has essentially left him in the "I'm not really specialised" rut (compared to the others)... and we've seen where thats left him lately. Escort duty and trans-am battery :( Of course, I accept that someone needed to do it, and his suit made him a damn good escort in that its fast and can provide cover fire if required... and of course, when needing heavy firepower to get through to the memento mori it simply wasn't going to cut it... but still. I miss seeing actual action on his behalf, especially when his suit should have so many options available to it. |

| I agree with everything you said about Arios. I already talked about it with someone on LJ and I'm too lazy to repeat all that stuff, but yes, Alle's Gundam is not specialized enough, it's basically one of those rather good at everything units. Speed is great, but when 00 Raiser goes Trans-Am it has this too anyway, even if not for a long time of course. Being able to transform is cool too, but this just makes it become kinda like a fighter/bomber plane. Though I like those claws on the Arios. In the MM episode, Allelujah providing Trans-Am was logical, Seravee and Cherudim were just better for that kind of job and Setsuna's melee suit was perfect as distraction (I'm sure Arios would have done pretty well in that too, but we can't forget Alle's supersoldier abilities are gone, so he can't even get the best of his suit's abilities). Well, even if just going Trans-Am wasn't all that cool, without it Ptolemaios 2 would have been toast XD It was still an important job rofl. I'm sure Arios will get some nice action when Halle reappears. But then again, Soma is supposed to pilot the GN Archer, so dunno how this cooperation will work. I guess GN Archer might be mostly used as a separate unit anyway. But obviously it's not like the authors just forgot about Alle, everyone gets some cool action in this show (even if sometimes they will have to become background characters afterwards, like Alle in season 1 until the last battle). |

| hands down the 00 Raiser Gundam |
     |
| Yanno.... Graham's new suit will look pretty sick |
 |
| seraphim this one is all black compare to nadleeh which is all white. |
| My fave is still Nadleeh. It has this mystique around it, with the flowing hair, that it was hidden, oh and I'm always more fond of the quick hand-to-hand combats, than the big ass canons. ... So yeah, that does mean, that Exia (espeically Terminator Exia *-*) and 00 Riser are faves too, but Nadleeh just looks way cooler. (And if anyone didn't knew, the cooler your mecha looks, the better it is muhhahahw.) OFF: About Serpahim. ... It just does not feel right somehow. Nadleeh had the trial system in it, Seraphim is just another mecha in a mecha. No real point. Yeah, I saw the use of it in ep 14. You can make Seravee hold down an MS, than use Seraphim to slice it up to tiny little peaces. But you could actually do that with an MS with 8 arms, and it loses it purpose after being revealed, unless there is still some hidden trick to it. (Like a hack to Veda, to enable Trial System v2.0 or something. XD) ... And not to mention Seraphim has no hair. d: |
| The system might have the ability to split the gn engine and have anothe pilot fight on the side. |
| Arios, 00 Raiser, Dynames/Cherudim .. and.. Seraphim for the hell of it :P |
 |
| i don't know i still think 00 looks the cooliist but sins the battle of the moment mori i think cherudim really rulles :p |
 |
| I guess I can add Seraphim to my faves. It's BLACK. Lol. And I'm sure there's more to it than just being another mecha in a mecha thing. And hopefully Graham's new toy will last longer than the one from the end of season 1 >_> Coz it looks really awesome. |

| Gundam Exia and OO Gundam! they're really cool and i like their seven sword system. X3 i also like Masurao, really give me a feeling of samurai. It's cooler than Ahead :D |
 exteen blog || oekakiBBS || tegaki |
| *checks wiki to remember some of them* Exia 00 Riser Dynames Masurao Throne Zwei ("FANGS!") Ptolemaios!! It's so...unyielding! The Flags are cool too Gadessa and Garazzo (although they scare me, with Virtue) |
 |
| Exia and Exia+gn arms 00 and 00-riser can i say 0-gundam? its gn-particles wings look so cool O_O |
| Absolutely Seravee the gn field,and all the cannons makes him my favorite. The seraphim,since he is a part of Seravee and by the looks can pass easily by gn fields. |
 |
| Arios, Exia, and gundam 0... |
| Virtue. I miss Season 1 and the good old "Virtue, Tieria Erde, ikimasu!" *tear* |
| uhm... Ptolemaios ftw! |
|
| setsuna's and lockon's |
 |
| The best mobile suit would obviously be the 00-Raiser. The GN-X units are pretty cool but its purpose in battle are more like shields rather than weapons. I also like Lockon's Cherudim Gundam, the sniper rifle seems to be quite a plus. |
 |
| the 00-riser I meen the danm thing bracks fisics |
| 00 Riser is my top pick, it's just pure awesomeness. Non-Gundam wise, the OverFlag is badass. |
| At first I wasn't a particular fan of the 00 Gundam, but it's definately growing on me. |
 |
| I like Kyrios mostly. It's flight mode is amazing! And in PS2 game i can use it comfortly, it's too fast XD |
| 00 Raiser Gundam. Seriously that gundam is full of fuxxin win |
 |
| I'd have to agree with all those who said the 00 raiser. I'd also have to go with the seravee gundam that houses the seraphim one. Its cool to see how tieria's and setsuna's gundam have duel bodies in a sense... but those would be my two favorites. Plus I like setsunas insane power and that his is a hand to hand combat type... |
 |
| Exia was the most badass suit ever. But 00 raiser was epic and extremely awesome, so.......00 raiser |
 |
| my favourite gundam is the 00 Raiser Gundam and the Arios. |
| .... my Favorite is Nadleeh ;)) |
| 80% of MAL's Anime Fanbase= Yaoi Fangirls^^. If you don't give shit about the statistics and just want to see two guys fuck madly, Read/Watch some Yaoi!!! |
| 1. Give it to 00-Raiser Gundam (breaking-physic gundam) 2. Masurao (OMG 0_0 and it comes with an awesome soundtrack) 3. Arios Gundam (So sweet) 4. Dynames Gundam (with his shield) 5. Graham's Flag (the madness of every single gundams in first season). |
| exia because of its simple looking design with a sharp sword kinda reminds me of ninjas |
| 1. Reborns Gundam/Reborns Cannon, because it's a fucking Hi-Nu Gundam/Guntank hybrid. 2. Jagd Arche Gundam, because it's a perfect fusion of the Gundam Thrones, which are awesome. 3. Gundam Throne Zwei, because of the colours and buster sword. 4. Gundam Throne Eins Turbulenz, as it's Gundam Throne Eins with attributes of Zwei and Drei. 5. Gundam Throne Drei, because of the colours and unique design. 6. Susanowo, because it's an even better version of Masurao. 7. Masurao, because it looks like a samurai Flag. 8. Ahead Sagikaken because it's a samurai-inspired Ahead. 9. 00 Seven Swords, because it's like an updated Exia still using the Seven Swords. 10. Then is Exia Avalance, because it's a faster Exia and because of the Seven Swords. 11. Then is Arios Ascalon, because of the colours. |
 |
| My favorite Gundam is without a doubt, Dynames. |
 |
| Exia, 00 Qan[T] and Graham's Custom Flag |
| ] |
| Gadessa and Garazzo FTW!! |
| Kyrios and arios are 2 badass suits especially because they were both piloted by super soldier haptism!!!! |
