Which gundam was a disgrace to all gundam shows?

And no, no poll cuz I forgot some of the names of the series..

I say Gundam SD (With the midget gundams *hurl*)

Was by far the worst...

Well, Gundam Wing was thin... G-Gundam was worse - but funny, Gundam Seed was mediocre, and SD Gundam was cute...

So, I'll go with Gundam Wing.

Note: I refer to the limited pool that I have seen.

Gundam Wing is popular, but not very good. The plot is thin, characterization feeble, premise unsustainable and artwork choppy... how often do we see the same three second of X object exploding? Do I hear... every battle? None of the characters had enough depth to approach humanity, and together they somehow manage to make everything worse...

The Gundams are somewhat pretty, and the political intrigue is almost passable.

Meh, a limited pool? It depends, I watched as many as I could and Endless Waltz, and it was pretty good from my POV..

A limited pool of Gundam anime. I think I saw the first five or six discs of Wing and then decided that it might be better just to not watch anything for a while. Seed I've seen maybe eight episodes of. Same with SD. G Gundam I may have seen... twenty episodes?

For the first few episodes i was pretty into the 8th MS Team. I liked its more gritty setting.

I'd say Wing, it has some cool stuff... like Japan being a giant gundam and all...

But then I saw the final episode... you know, where the evil Super Gundam is defeated by a giant Heart Shaped Beam Powered By Love from the tiny good guy gundam... and then cherry blossoms start falling and they start singing about the shining finger... no thankyou.

Are you sure that's Wing?! :shock:

Anyway, I felt that Seed Destiny was just bad - half the shows were just stock footage:

Gundam launches - several minutes of the same animation
Zakus launch - several minutes of them firing and missing at the same targets...

Even the animation for the ship being hit by weapons was repeated a hideous amount!

Well the one that had all that stuff anyways... worst gundam ever... it's not even like it was a gundam show anyways... it was like a metabots-mech-fighting tournament show, with these weird subtexts that may have been a throwback to the gundam universe...
