But Gundam 00 S2 is crappy as hell (aside from the good looks.. the production value was top notch).
I have to admit that I liked Gundam 00 S1 (except for the ending).
Gundam 00 S1 focused a lot on the plot/action and because of that, the character development got neglected.
But that didn't matter, because even with the 1-dimensional characters, it was still an interesting and exciting mecha anime.
However in Gundam 00 S2, 'they' tried to 'spice up' the character development a bit.
They totally froze the storytelling and decided to focus (a lot more) on the characters.
But they failed miserably!!! The characters didn't come 'alive' one bit!!!!
The result = crap.
Hell.. what annoyed me the most were the things that just didn't make sense.
For example the 'couple': Louise and Saji.
Saji discovers something (very) important about Louise's tragedy (spoiler?) and 'every' viewer knows Louise should know about this.
But for some reason whenever Saji meets Louise, he NEVER discloses this important information to Louise.
What we get instead is a lot of shit dialogue like: "Saji.." "Louise!" "Saji!!" "Louise!!"
The same with Setsuna.. awww .. I'm not even going to start with his "Orewah Gundammmuhhh" dialogues/monologues...
In short.. Gundam 00 S2.. was bad.. very bad.. compared to season 1..
The story became predictable, the (romantic) character development was crap, some unimportant characters died,
bad guys didn't actually die in season 1, you get spammed with loads of new characters,
Ribbons 'bitch-slaps' female characters and they 'endure' it *cough*.. and so on...
But anyways .. loads of you brainwashed *Gundam-lovers* will probably love this show anyways..
So... enjoy the sequel you guys.. :|
