(SPOILERS AHEAD) I'm a fan of gundam so when I heard about gundam age the first thing I did was read the reviews, there was a lot of bad reviews out there about gundam age so when I sat down to watch it for myself I was a bit wary, I was however pleasantly surprised at how wrong some of the reviews were, many people wrote age off for having aliens, known as the U.E or from episode 16 onward Vagan, for those who first saw them and stopped watching you are wrong, the U.E are actually humans who were abandoned on the surface of ... mars and are attempting to gain control of Earth. Unlike the other gundam series I've seen so far age seems to be running three protagonists, starting with flit asuno aged 14 at the time of his fights in the gundam, it then moves on after 15 episodes to his son Asemu, aged 17 and flit is now a federation forces commander aged somewhere around 40. If I am correct I believe that the next protagonist will be Asemu's son Kio as the is the only asuno pilot yet without a voice actor is Kio. There are many people who refused to watch this anime due to the more childish art form, I like many others preferred the art from gundam seed which also received many bad reviews, do not be put off by age's art, the story is gripping and full of twists, all in all I believe that gundam age is a great anime.

A beautiful piece of work even if the story line is pretty normal boy meets girl, girl loves boy and boy loves girl then more girls fall in behind. There is almost no tragedy apart from the male lead's past which i won't tell because of spoilers. It also includes some very funny parts to the story as well as some crazy characters. The romantic scenes are very touching and this is intensified by the fact that both the boy and the girl must hide their relationship from the people they live with.
