Background to tell you it makes no sense. It all takes a few minutes in the first episode and is reduced to the fact that war broke out between the two... hmm... categories of people: «Naturals» and «Coordinators». And it's actually very sad. Naturals envy Coordinators for their abilities, they in turn see themselves as the new master race. And so they fight — wall to wall, as they say. Coordinators with the huge, multi-functional armor, and people with nuclear weapons. This creation studio «SUNRISE» appeared to me one more answer to world problems.
The war is the battle, pain, death and suffering. It may not be fair. And the most fundamental dictators understand this. What to say about ordinary soldiers, and on this side and on the other hand, when their eyes were dying relatives and friends. They begin to hate. The main thing — revenge. And such a war can not end. «Why go to war if you can not beat it?!» — So said Patrick Zala. They just can not turn back, shake hands and scatter to their homes. The war of all against all. None of the episode goes by without a battle, and some are just dying, it proves to be right.
«Coordinators — not people! They must be destroyed! They destroyed the city where my family lived!»
«The Naturals deceitful and selfish creatures! They killed my friend!» It is difficult to choose the side on which the will to fight. If you are an independent country, if not come down to whose — either way, you be accused of cowardice. Either with us or against us. Unfortunately, you can not win a war without battles, it Lacus Clyne knew, but on the other side of the war did not end when you continue to fight. Vicious circle, which is very difficult to understand in order to break. In a word — war. I think that one word, to mean all of the above written.
War can not be held without the participation of people in front of us, and there are the main characters. Kira Yamato and Athrun Zala, childhood friends and enemies in the past to the present (a familiar story, is not it?). For them I was going through. I was afraid that they, in fact, kill one — another. It's so hard to fight against the ones you love. It is almost impossible! But sometimes anger, desire for revenge — all that is stronger than the most sincere good feeling. When the eyes of the dying one way or another you will take up arms when the culprit in front of you (not everyone is yet to be your alarmist). It's almost animal instinct. It can not be avoided, unless you are... In the anime, there is also a crowd of others, perhaps even more interesting characters. I am truly sick of Yzak Joule, Dearka Elsman and Miriallia Haw. Mu La Flaga and Rau Le Creuset is also very remarkable his charismatic personality. Murrue Ramius — a strong, wonderful woman. Cagalli Yula Athha — it's something uncontrollable, and at the same time vulnerable. I liked it. Lacus Clyne, it would seem, my dear girl, do not affect the overall story, a kind of kawaii item, and no. It turned out the opposite. We should also mention Flay Allster (I did not realize it until the end). And for a long time we can speak in such a way...
Unfortunately, it turns out that it is at war, you can check the strength of feeling. Friendship or love, or something else. My first acquaintance with the Gundam franchise, «Mobile Suit Gundam Wing» began with.
But after watching two seasons of «Gundam SEED», I'm incredibly in love with this anime, more to the Universe Cosmic Era.
I love mecha! The fighting is impressive, some so eager and review. Music is in harmony with the action. Openings and endings theme is also encouraging. It turns out that Gundam me happy! What I wanted, what I saw. See you want if you do not mind fur, because it is everywhere. It is important not to miss the main thing, because «life is not just a war».
Verdict — 10/10.
P.S. : In december 2011 started the show Gundam SEED HD Remaster.
Yes, we once again see «the same» Gundam SEED, only in HD. In fact, he is not inferior to the version in 2002.
Naturally, some changes (the cooling, the openings, endings, again redrawn many scenes, characters, etc.) do exist, but it does not take away any impression on the viewer.
