This is what Gundam should be. Realistic. No overpowered kiddy shit. Soldiers fighting Soldiers on equal footing. The only things that keeps them alive is luck, tactics, skill and leadership.
@frostymourne@ArmoredIsamu@GunplaProductions I really don't get where the "gritty realism" in this series is.You've got parachuting giant robots, giant robots sneaking around in a jungle, generic shounen archetypes, and the only character who ever dies is the main bad guy, who's character is written as almost completely pure evil. And what happens to to the good guys? One gets hospitalized for a while and later everybody gets separated a few month. Oh darn. So hardcore.
@frostymourne Oh, and we got a 16 or something year-old kid who's somehow the captain of a team much older than himself despite the fact he has the least MS and ground combat experience. And after being suspected of being a Zeon spy, they decide to keep him in a Gundam, which they repaired AND upgraded. Yeah, "realistic."
@TheFinalSaint There was in face a scene in which on the gundams heads were blown off and they replaced it with a GM head (they also used the gun camera before that)
This is how Gundam was, not the BS we have today... you took a shot to the stomach, you DIED/BLEW UP. Hell, Shiro wishes he got 1% of the plot armor some "other" pilots got.
Totally agree. In like every other series, it's like one Gundam can take out like an entire army of mobile suits. (Looking at you Wing Zero and Heero Yuy! >:/) Here and even in the other UC Gundam animes (i.e. MSG, 0080, 0083) an enemy mobile suit like a Dom, Gouf, or Zaku can go toe-to-toe with a Gundam for a good amount of time.
@zero312 Eeeh, remember the "gundams" in 08th was just made up of rejected parts for THE Gundam. Also... the Wing suits were supposed to be able to waste whole legions of suits. They were supposed to be designed/better... and now that I think of it, that's the cancer than caused SEED.
I miss watching 08th MS team. The show was really good. And the theme song is one of my favorites. How come noone has put the full ver of this song on Youtube?

will you two zip it please! i like 8th ms team as much as anyone else but its bicker fights like this online that anger me more than anything especially when it comes to gundam!just enjoy the show as the saying goes.......
@F4LL3NS4V10R I just did. It was a bad Romeo and Juliet retelling with good action scenes. If it had focused on the stuff actually shown in the OP, it would've been best Gundam OVA, hands down.
@YamashitaTsubasa the question i have is who cares? this Gundam series is awesome, it still feels like Gundam gone Vietnam. plus 12 episodes is perfect compared to the 25-79-100+ episodes on the other series. your right on one part, the 08th does have its flaws but not as much compared to the other Gundam series out there... Thus the 08th MS Team is a Gem of its age. The R&J story does get a little cheesy at times, but its pretty good
Well obviously you do since you responded. As far as Gundam OVAs (because remember, 08th Team didn't air on Tv, it was a video release over a period of years) go, its still worse than Unicorn and 0080, which puts it in the sterling companionship of Stardust Memory and Endless Waltz (this is sarcasm).
@YamashitaTsubasa I can't tell if your being sarcastic on the part where you said it didn't air on tv, but it did, just in case you weren't being sarcastic there...sorry for bothering you plz don't hurt me...>-<
@CobraTrouser Dude, no intention of sparking a fight or anything, but from what I can tell, Stardust Memory was and still is quite loved. No idea about Endless Waltz, though, haven't made research on that one.
@Dralshard wuuuuuh...thats random I have no idea what you are talking about, I was never talking bad about 8th ms team, in fact its one of my favorites O_o
I love this so much mainly because it reminds us that the One Year War wasn't fought solely between mobile suits (and related equipment)... There were still foot soldiers involved (facing off with 18 meter war mechs!)
If considering all the details in this opening to be what really happen between episodes, I gotta say that ALOT has happen in the One Year War and Mobile suit came out like what? The last 4 months of the war? Forget trying to make it through the 1st day try surviving the next few hours.
@blkboi90 Same ): I didn't really understand why they had to do it, because it was the end of the series anyway and it just made the happy ending less.. happy..?
This is my favorite Gundam series. This is how war must be feeling like. Dirty, gritty and real, even though it has giant mecha in it. Not shiny and unbelievably fast like some other Gundam series.
Agree. When I was watching the few first episodes I was astonished by the realism. But then, they had to make it turn worse by love story and peace talk shit... It is only gundam series that don't make war look ridiculous. Seriously, for example 1 kira or shin or setsuna or heroo= whole armada. And it doesn't matter if fleet can put so much covering fire that even fly wouldn't stay alive. The main hero will go into Super mode (DAIMOS!!!) and kill all enemys.
@warhawk9566 the only thing that put 00 in tune with some of the other UC series is that the gundam in 00 all had the same traits but some jus had different parameters dynames was meant for long range combat and could switch to close range but the pilot felt ok with long range combat seravee was the same thing but it just completely excelled in long range combat it just had next to no close range combat the gundam from that series each had good and bad points in which they excelled in
Anyone want to play this as an MMO (With Space AND Ground Combat)? Well you can! Google UCGO Private Server and read the player made wiki.......ignore Titans Server, they wont be up anytime soon. > <
SEED only fans need not apply.
OH, and take alook at Cyber Newtypes from Zeta and such, and the "Druggie" / "Extended" / "Enhanced Human" Characters of the SEED Series.....Rehashing plot or what......and I stil enojyed them all but UC is by far the better quality.
Your question is unclear. The Gundam used in this OVA is a mass produced land version of the Gundam prototype used by Amuro. Each mobile companies uses several of the Gundam land version along with a scout tank. This OVA tries to explore the realistic nature of ground battle.
@TheIndonesianDude what i ment is are they all basically the same in this series like same design but slight changes or are they like in gundam seed, 00 and wing were they are all of different design and different capabilities ( example arios and kyrios are much more agile than exia and 00 but exia and double are better at close range fighting)
@warhawk9566 For this particular series all the Gundam has simiilar design, and similar capabilities, unlike in the SEED, and Wing where each Gundam has unique ability. I have mentioned on my replies that this is a mass produced version of Gundam specialized in ground battle only and not capable of space battle. The Gundam land version can carries different types of weapon depending on the circumstances of the ground battle.
This gundam became my favorite gundam when i played a game of gundams, just cant remember the titile of those games, and the story of 8TH ms team is the best for me compared to seed , destiny and 00
@wawartk0 indeed, you just cant put SEED, and 00 on the same level as the pure awesomeness of Gundam The 08th MS Team. Btw, maybe the game you played was SD G Gundam?
@Xradris Honestly, i'm indifferent about the Zeon and the Federation. Both sides commit war crimes, and Zeon has much justification for their rebellion against the Federation.
I could pick either side since they both have awesome mobile-suits to pilot!
I love 08th MS Team. It is realistic in terms of that mobile suits are treated as part of the army like support/armor/artillery, rather than the army itself. There is still infantry, tanks, air support etc. This is what a future war would be like if mobile suits are involved.
@BIGZAM0079 Yeah it look like the design, but don't forget that GunTank and GunDam is use in all series. I think they left GunCannon out except for Gundam X, which is totally a GunCannon design.
too bad there are more Wing Fans than U.C fans
