SEED wasn't so bad, it was pretty good, although there are a few plot holes, lots of stock footage, and long boring fights, but it still managed to be entertaining and just a bit better than ZZ that's forsure.
SEED really lacks slapping, and watch out for this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tWjfbUfcJUM
Lack of slaps, oh that's already not sounding brilliant. As long as ZZ has at least one really good slap then we are golden.
That cry. Someone there asked "What's the matter" and those are my thoughts exactly ahaha.
YT comment said that he needs a bright slap LOL. Brighto- sannnnnnnn we need you.

I'm sad that Gundam Unicorn and 08th ms team didn't make it on the list.
Was it even on the original survey? With it being the best selling Gundam of all time, I'm sure it would have gotten more than 19 votes (Age's total) if it were eligible. It looks like this is TV series only. 1st Gundam got more than half of all the votes though so it was definitely a blowout.
Okay yeah that makes more sense.

Shouldn't that be 'News Briefs for January 27 - February 2'?
LOL woops. Surprised no one else said anything. Thanks for pointing it out.
NP. Also thanks for the news on the upcoming SJ titles. Some of them look full of potential, given who wrote them.

Also Gundam fans let me love you and should I watch Turn A Gundam after working my way through most things?
I never quite figured out the ~placement~ of this series.
With being about half way through Turn A, there's really nothing special about it. Basically it's just average. I can't make a full opinion on it.
Also you should give SEED a chance, it's not as bad as you think. If you would like to know more about other Gundam shows just message me.
I know everyone has their own taste and such but holy shit Gundam Seed & Destiny ranked so high?! I can maybe understand Seed but Destiny was a fucking train wreck. From the ones I've seen nothing beats 08th team, Victory Gundam, Turn A and 00 (as far as HD Gundam are concerned). Oh well to each his own I guess.
Apparently when it comes to the Gundam shows, it seems people can't tell a good show from a bad show. It's hard to take so called "Gundam Fans" serious, when their views are terrible (It's like they didn't even watch the show). Thank you for using your brain. I agree with most of what you posted.
