@heeropat (lts see. according to the timeline database (it's in some book I read. can't remember the name of it..... my friend had printed out translations for it.) she gets married, pregnant, adopts Katz, Kikia, and letz. Katz dies, Hayato meets up with her in Hong Kong, they mourn the loss of Katz when Bright tells them.
then her baby is born and she grows old anlong with Hayato and dies.
her child is speculated to be the great great great grandparent of the museum owner in F91.
@BillyCauseyjr I agree with everything you said except for the last part about Hayato. He was killed during ZZ Gundam. It's a little sad that Hayato died before they showed him spend an time with Fraw. Heck, Amuro was shown spending more time with Fraw and Mirai than their own husbands in Zeta. I've never even seen Bright with Mirai since 0079 even though they were married.
@BillyCauseyjr Sorry about spoiling that for you. I just recently got into the UC myself. I was originally a Wing and Seed fan, but after watching the UC series, I have to say that its story blows the rest of the series away.
I think thats what you're talking about but I don't remember him arguing with his mom. I remember I saw it on Adult Swim back in the day. one of my favorites
hey this is gundam and has nothing to do with the transformers, gundams are actually giant robot vehicles called mobile suits that a human pilots from the inside pilot with handles and pettles (accept for g gundam), yes some mobile suit gundams do transform but not really much for hiding their identity its a form so that they can get through the atmosphear with and gundams do not come from the planet cybertron but transformers do only to get the alspark before the dicepticons do on earth
Oh? I am not an expert, but first generation of Transformers was made around 1984, when people from Hasbro bought rights to several japanes toy lines and decided to sold them under one single brand. So your ultra original super american Transformers are in fact of japanese ancestry. Not to mention that first gundam came out five years before, in 1979...
@JohnyCrusher the first transfomers series was based off the SDF Macross toys (i.e F14 lookalikes that turned into mechs) and they imported them as recoolors and sold them under the "Robotech" brand. (with licensing from harmony gold) then Haasbro took teh concept and started their own brand of toys.
@BillyCauseyjr I wouldn't go that far. The concept of transforming robots predates all of them. Not sure when the earliest known "transformer" appeared, but the oldest I'm aware of was - oddly enough - in the Japanese TV version of Spider-Man, which ran in 1978.
I assume he means 'mainstream' in the US, as opposed to japan. In japan, its regarded as one of THE best series, but here, it was simply a direct to DVD release. And an expensive one at that!

Fun Fact: This song was an originally an american song called "Better Days Are Coming" written and sung by Neil Sedaka off his album "Solitaire". Tomino (the creator of gundam) is a big fan of sadaka and had all zeta's openings and closing songs be a japanese version of a sedaka song. dont beileve me, look up Solitaire (album) on wikipedia. not enough proof fer ya? I got the link were you can hear "Better days are Coming" listen to it.. its the same fucking song it just has diffrent instruments.
There is a video here on yotube proving I'm right, Look up the video "Zeta Gundam Opening 1 Better Days are coming." by RyotheTiger. and see for your self my fellow gundam otakus!
You did. Haro became a member of the cast sometime around...the fifth or sixth episode? I forget which one, exactly, but he was found by Camille when they were on the Moon, and he took Haro aboard the Argama.
i think this op really fits.i mean if you just listen to it it means pure action,unlike seeds over use of jpop and orcheasta,it tells you about angsty
Not only does Seed have a crappy storyline and overly emo and contradicting characters the Gundam designs are stupid as well. Not to mention the art style change was to drastic, I love the old style it added a sense of nostalgia. I can see why your friend refuses to watch seed anymore.
I would love to live in a colony lol. And Victory, following from before, was the only series that I didn't enjoy. I just found it hard to like Uso for some reason. I have adored every other series, and even the most die-hard SEED-hater has to agree that the mecha designs and animation quality were fantastic.
I think some of us should live in space colonies to provide more space for mother earth because the population is always growing and some should live in craddle platforms on the earth too like in armored core for answer that would be awsome
If you look at back of Japanese DVD of V gundam it says this 'DVD sucks do not watch it but sound on the third volume is nice so you should listen to it'
IIRC it actually says do not buy, but you have to buy it anyway. Tomino actually hated Victory, not explicitly calling it a failure, IIRC he was in a depression at the time. He also sorta dislikes ZZ
yet V is still one of the better Gundam series, even if its weird sometimes. though now because of it i feel that every gundam series needs massive amounts of dead characters to be good.
I got to admit this: I really love this opening but the one they used for the U.S. opening kind of fits the tone of the series better, I'm up to episode 23 now.
I guess the person who said "Tomino works with happy openings usually means: sad endings" is pretty right.
hey remember at the beginning of the series the AEUG stole 3 Gundam MK II, Kamille used one of them...but what happen to the other two? they never said.
to think its 1980s but superb animation compared to US cartoons...what happened to Filmation and the producers of silver hawk, thunder cats and tigersharks?
this was such an epic intro................ but nooooooo the Americans had to get the idea of using an orchestra.... it sounds so retarded and stupid... yeaaa people really wanna an orchestral intro for a high tech mecha anime..... retards
Strange, though. There was a similar situation when Funimation got the rights to the anime Romeo + Juliet, which also had a Japanese language theme based on an English language song (in this case it was "You Raise Me Up", popularized by Josh Groban).
Yet funimation has that theme intact, but Bandai doesn't have the original Zeta theme.
Do you guys even realize that the American intro is a song from the Zeta soundtrack? Pay attention and you'll actually hear it throughout the show. It's true that this opening is more consistent with other Gundam themes, but I think the english OP is still a good song, and a great example of this show's exceptional orchestral work.
I just think Alias was attempting to complain about how Americans ruin anime(which they dont), and he completely failed. Anyway, judging from the comments on his page, he seems to be a troll
Actually the US theme was written by the same guy who wrote the score for both ZZ and Char's Counterattack. Saegusa (cant remember first name) since Bandai couldn't get rights for the themes outside of Asia.
I figured that was it. It's funny, Super Dimension Cavalry Southern Cross got released here, and the frequently used background fight music is a cover of "Synchronicity II" by The Police...and I'm sure it wasn't licensed!
Watching Zeta for the first time (just finished episode 15) and I have to say, that anyone who thinks Seed (I haven't seen Seed Destiny - don't really want to - or 00) measures up in any way has to be nuts.
And I'm not some old fogey who thinks that older anime is always better and newer anime sucks (I think that, for instance, Macross Frontier is a worthy successor to the original Macross).
thats true but dont forget the ending of 00 sort of picks up where Zeta gundnam and ZZ gundam left off.. the whole Jupiter thing
i mean paptimus scirocco people wondered if there are more guys like him on jupiter or how Roux and Judau went to live at Jupiter. and the Gundam 00 their going to jupiter
Its just a fucking shame that gundam started out as a 20 year old dude show.... and now its only watched by teenage girls.... its just fucking sad...... Its like what happened to star wars. they ruined their legeacy by forcing the francise to go on...... Its just sad... us older gundam otakus have fucking had it. Face it Gundam sucks now that Yoshiyuki tomino left sunrise studios......
We meet again my friend witha simular username! whats up! I thought you said you were leaving youtube for good? Anyway I agree .... Seed and 00 were so horrible story wise that I heard in Japan they both were hated by the older gundam fanbase..... but the younger fans who never saw how great the old gundams were liked these crappy new gundams..... It's our job as Older anime fans to educate these younger anime fans to show them that animation and cute characters do not make a anime good.
Skcabby! Nice to see ya again dude!.. yeah I'm still gonna leave youtube so i can find a site were I can post classic gundam episodes with out getting into trouble like what happened to gundamgrimlock on here...... Yeah I beat the crap out of my little cousin and showed him old zeta episodes.... Now he is hooked on the classic gundams.... I saved him from the evil kown as "Gundam 00" lol
Ha Nice! Yeah at a convention me and some of my gundam otaku pals made fun of a bunch of pre-teens who thought seed was better.... I said to the kids "Have you even seen zeta gundam?" and they never heard of it so we showed them a few episodes and they liked them... so there is STILL hope for these younger generations of anime fans.... Old school gundam otaku pride baby! I'll miss ya my brother! Let me know when you post the episodes! Hail Zeon!
I grew up watching the UC Gundam series, and Zeta was my favorite, but Gundam 00 is not bad at all i just finished watching episode 50 of 00 last week and it was great. Have u even watched the series?
you thought that was great !? way too much political bull shit.... i now all gundams have some plitical undertones to it but come on! 00 was way too Political
that's what I love about the uc serie though. The political aspect gives them a sense of reality like it could really happen and also gives the show meaning. Gundam is great because unlike most of the other shows of the time it had real human undertones and rational explanations for why the war was even started and what the actual goal was, not just to obliterate the other side but the real goal freedom/control. It wasn't about good vs evil
but the subversion of a government form (duchy) that was self destructive. We could really relate to the humans fighting on both sides. The soldiers in the duchy who were bound by loyalty or fear of noncompliance and the Union who were fighting to restore control over the colonies. We really got to understand the characters on both sides, like in all human wars. Ramba Raul has always been one of my favorite characters who I've always felt was
just born on the wrong colony. He could have made a great federal officer with his devotion to duty. Politics = explanation. I agree we need a balance though.
i did..... it was horrible .... not as bad as seed but still it was awful .... 00 has good animation but the plot was predictable it had unlikeable characters with sterotypical good looks... 00 was absolute shit compaired to zeta.... gundam sucks now that yoshiyuki tomino has left sunrise stidios
You watched all 50 episodes, the first 10 or 12 eps were very boring but then it got interesting. They do have lots of good characters, Ali al Sarches reminded me of Yazan gable, A-Laws reminded me of the Titans, Graham Aker was a very good character. Overall i would give the series an 8 out of 10. But Zeta still my favorite. Btw did u watch Victory gundam is it any good im thinking about watching it.
yuck......oh well... believe what you want.... I still think its shit thats targeted twowards pre teens..... not something REAL gundam fans should watch because yoshiyuki tomino had nothing to do with making it..... V-gundam kind off sucked sometimes but the ending redeemed its self... but sometimes you will be saying WTF like in one episode when the bad guys want to stop the gundam pilots so they send a bunch of hot women in bakinis to distrcat them......
well i can understand why they made Gundam seed, it was horrible but they wanted a bigger fanbase and more money and they wanted to attract younger kids so its understandable but they could have at least made a better series, a series which would attract Young fans and older Gundam fans. But Gundam 00 was a huge upgrade over Seed hopefully the next series will be a great one, i heard rumors about it being a UC series.
It gonna be gundam unicorn it in UC 96 3 years after char's counterattack. And no just because it has unicorn in its name doesn't mean its gay. all it is is that the gundam's v antena is closed together forming a horn. It looks pretty good

The Gundam Seed actually caused a noticeable split.
Essentially, the increased focus on the Characters and well....exceeding angst was not what everyone wanted.
This lowered the amount of Awesome Giant Robot Fights in relation to the angst, along with reusing the same footage over and over.
BUT the advantage was that the characters were much better defined in SEED than usual.
However, this drawed a line...the best way to simplify it was that Boys disliked it, but Girls loved it.

Filmation hires Japanese studios to do most of their animation that is why silver hawk, thunder cats and tiger sharks looks cool.

this was such an epic intro................ but nooooooo the Americans had to get the idea of using an orchestra.... it sounds so retarded and stupid... yeaaa people really wanna an orchestral intro for a high tech mecha anime..... retards

Their hands were tied. Bandai couldn't get the rights to the songs outside of Asia.

Strange, though. There was a similar situation when Funimation got the rights to the anime Romeo + Juliet, which also had a Japanese language theme based on an English language song (in this case it was "You Raise Me Up", popularized by Josh Groban).
Yet funimation has that theme intact, but Bandai doesn't have the original Zeta theme.

No kidding i heard the american intro. It almost caused my ears to bleed in sheer fail.

Do you guys even realize that the American intro is a song from the Zeta soundtrack? Pay attention and you'll actually hear it throughout the show. It's true that this opening is more consistent with other Gundam themes, but I think the english OP is still a good song, and a great example of this show's exceptional orchestral work.

Besides, it WAS a track form the shows' soundtrack in the first place.

I just think Alias was attempting to complain about how Americans ruin anime(which they dont), and he completely failed. Anyway, judging from the comments on his page, he seems to be a troll

Actually the US theme was written by the same guy who wrote the score for both ZZ and Char's Counterattack. Saegusa (cant remember first name) since Bandai couldn't get rights for the themes outside of Asia.

I figured that was it. It's funny, Super Dimension Cavalry Southern Cross got released here, and the frequently used background fight music is a cover of "Synchronicity II" by The Police...and I'm sure it wasn't licensed!

Anyone know why this song doesn't appear over the opening credits on the DVD box set in the U.S.? Rights issues?
RyuBaek 2 years ago
Yep, rights issues. I think it has to do with the fact that it's based on the song "Better Days are Coming" by Neil Sedaka.

Watching Zeta for the first time (just finished episode 15) and I have to say, that anyone who thinks Seed (I haven't seen Seed Destiny - don't really want to - or 00) measures up in any way has to be nuts.
And I'm not some old fogey who thinks that older anime is always better and newer anime sucks (I think that, for instance, Macross Frontier is a worthy successor to the original Macross).
Zeta Gundam is just THAT GOOD, at least so far.

00 will remind you a lot of Zeta especially during season 2.
Well im not particular on what timeline the series is, im just hoping for a great storyline, ms, and a great song to boot.

titans=A-laws
Seravee=The O
there are some pretty good similarities but not enough to call the series a second coming of zeta.
ghostfighter21 2 years ago
thats true but dont forget the ending of 00 sort of picks up where Zeta gundnam and ZZ gundam left off.. the whole Jupiter thing
i mean paptimus scirocco people wondered if there are more guys like him on jupiter or how Roux and Judau went to live at Jupiter. and the Gundam 00 their going to jupiter
naruto3k5 2 years ago
i see what ur saying but I THINK they copied the ending not pick up after
(just my opinion, please no one take this the wrong way )

dude u have the right idea , but still watch 00 its beyond crazy good

me and my fellow old school gundam otakus have a saying and it goes like this.... "U.C. gundams are the best, so fuck all the rest!"
Mortskcab 2 years ago 2
Its just a fucking shame that gundam started out as a 20 year old dude show.... and now its only watched by teenage girls.... its just fucking sad...... Its like what happened to star wars. they ruined their legeacy by forcing the francise to go on...... Its just sad... us older gundam otakus have fucking had it. Face it Gundam sucks now that Yoshiyuki tomino left sunrise studios......

We meet again my friend witha simular username! whats up! I thought you said you were leaving youtube for good? Anyway I agree .... Seed and 00 were so horrible story wise that I heard in Japan they both were hated by the older gundam fanbase..... but the younger fans who never saw how great the old gundams were liked these crappy new gundams..... It's our job as Older anime fans to educate these younger anime fans to show them that animation and cute characters do not make a anime good.
Mortskcab 2 years ago 2
Skcabby! Nice to see ya again dude!.. yeah I'm still gonna leave youtube so i can find a site were I can post classic gundam episodes with out getting into trouble like what happened to gundamgrimlock on here...... Yeah I beat the crap out of my little cousin and showed him old zeta episodes.... Now he is hooked on the classic gundams.... I saved him from the evil kown as "Gundam 00" lol
SuperMortimer 2 years ago 2
Ha Nice! Yeah at a convention me and some of my gundam otaku pals made fun of a bunch of pre-teens who thought seed was better.... I said to the kids "Have you even seen zeta gundam?" and they never heard of it so we showed them a few episodes and they liked them... so there is STILL hope for these younger generations of anime fans.... Old school gundam otaku pride baby! I'll miss ya my brother! Let me know when you post the episodes! Hail Zeon!
Mortskcab 2 years ago 2
I will i still have your e-mail so i'll let ya know! See ya gundam brother! Hail Zeon! (Salutes back to you)

I grew up watching the UC Gundam series, and Zeta was my favorite, but Gundam 00 is not bad at all i just finished watching episode 50 of 00 last week and it was great. Have u even watched the series?
CeroXForce 2 years ago
you thought that was great !? way too much political bull shit.... i now all gundams have some plitical undertones to it but come on! 00 was way too Political
Mortskcab 2 years ago
that's what I love about the uc serie though. The political aspect gives them a sense of reality like it could really happen and also gives the show meaning. Gundam is great because unlike most of the other shows of the time it had real human undertones and rational explanations for why the war was even started and what the actual goal was, not just to obliterate the other side but the real goal freedom/control. It wasn't about good vs evil
Luigi84289 2 years ago
but the subversion of a government form (duchy) that was self destructive. We could really relate to the humans fighting on both sides. The soldiers in the duchy who were bound by loyalty or fear of noncompliance and the Union who were fighting to restore control over the colonies. We really got to understand the characters on both sides, like in all human wars. Ramba Raul has always been one of my favorite characters who I've always felt was
Luigi84289 2 years ago
just born on the wrong colony. He could have made a great federal officer with his devotion to duty. Politics = explanation. I agree we need a balance though.

Like i told the other guy have u ever watched 00?
The series was great overall, it has to be my 2nd favorite behind Zeta.
CeroXForce 2 years ago
i did..... it was horrible .... not as bad as seed but still it was awful .... 00 has good animation but the plot was predictable it had unlikeable characters with sterotypical good looks... 00 was absolute shit compaired to zeta.... gundam sucks now that yoshiyuki tomino has left sunrise stidios
Mortskcab 2 years ago
You watched all 50 episodes, the first 10 or 12 eps were very boring but then it got interesting. They do have lots of good characters, Ali al Sarches reminded me of Yazan gable, A-Laws reminded me of the Titans, Graham Aker was a very good character. Overall i would give the series an 8 out of 10. But Zeta still my favorite. Btw did u watch Victory gundam is it any good im thinking about watching it.
CeroXForce 2 years ago
yuck......oh well... believe what you want.... I still think its shit thats targeted twowards pre teens..... not something REAL gundam fans should watch because yoshiyuki tomino had nothing to do with making it..... V-gundam kind off sucked sometimes but the ending redeemed its self... but sometimes you will be saying WTF like in one episode when the bad guys want to stop the gundam pilots so they send a bunch of hot women in bakinis to distrcat them......
Mortskcab 2 years ago
well i can understand why they made Gundam seed, it was horrible but they wanted a bigger fanbase and more money and they wanted to attract younger kids so its understandable but they could have at least made a better series, a series which would attract Young fans and older Gundam fans. But Gundam 00 was a huge upgrade over Seed hopefully the next series will be a great one, i heard rumors about it being a UC series.

It gonna be gundam unicorn it in UC 96 3 years after char's counterattack. And no just because it has unicorn in its name doesn't mean its gay. all it is is that the gundam's v antena is closed together forming a horn. It looks pretty good
