I first watched the original Mobile Suit Gundam series from 1979 when I was in high school and I first started to get into the anime medium. Back then I wanted to learn more about the history of anime and Mobile Suit Gundam is definitely one of those foundations the expanded anime to the western world. Before Pokémon came along, the craze was all about Mobile Suit Gundam toys and games in the 80s.
Although the series hasn’t aged well, the trilogy movies is a slight improvement from the original series.
It is easy to digest and the series doesn’t feel too dragged out as the original. Art work is fairly decent and the diologue in English dub is really nice. For some reason when I watched the series it takes me to the decades of the 80s, in a way you can learn a bit about the lifestyle of people during the 80s
This first film covers the events of Amuro Ray’s first flight into the Gundam all the way up to the fight with Garmna Zabi.
Definitely the trilogy movies is a good option if you don’t want to watch it’s longer version.
