    i recently finished buying the new double-disc sets of Zeta Gundam and finished watching the series for the first time through. i was, overall, fairly impressed. there was a lot more of a mortality rate than in most other Gundam series.

    the characters are dynamic (though i find myself liking Char/Quattro far less in this series than i did in original Gundam or especially Char's Counterattack), and the plots is layered very well. it's got a very diverse cast and some excellent mobile suit designs. Scirocco is a great villain, more of a psychological player than a straight-forward fighter (though he's no slouch in a mobile suit).

    also, i think it's great to see the growth of government throughout the UC Gundam cannon... watching Zeta made me appreciate the end of Stardust Memory far more than i did when i first watched through it. and the ending of Zeta, well... not going to spoil it. it was nothing like i expected.

    and, of course, i can't forget: four murasame is awesome.

    Who didnt die in that series? I think only about 10 people out of the 500000000000000000000000 that were introduced


    For all you awesome people, it's just Phoenix. The numbers are just the amount of times people misspell it.

    nope, haven't seen V Gundam, though i have had it downloading (the entire series) for about two days now... should be done sometime tomorrow. not easy downloading an entire 51 episode series in one lump download...

    is it worth the wait? really?

    i'm also wondering about ZZ Gundam... before i try to track it down and download it, is it worth the wait? i don't want to invest the time and hard drive space into a series that's just going to be a let-down...

    V Gundam is IMO the best UC series next to Zeta. It takes place 30 years after Char's Counter-Attack, and it features 2 new groups at war with each other, Feddies are still there to some extent, but no-more Zeeks(if you get this reference you get a gold star)

    ZZ is another story. It starts only hours after the last battle in Zeta, which was pretty neat idea. The first 25+/- episodes aren't directed by Tomino, and they are comedic and kinda iffy. However once Tomino takes over the series becomes pretty good. You also get to find out what happens to Camille after Zeta. Overall it's a decent series(better than destiny). If you want you can skip this and just watch Char's CA, you won't miss out on anything.

    so wait... what does happen to Kamille? is it all that interesting or shocking? does it make the series worth watching through? hrmm... that's a tough call... if i can find a torrent for it that's being seeded, i'll start it after getting these episodes of V Gundam onto data cds and off of my overflowing hard drive...

    anyone got a link for a good ZZ Gundam torrent?

    The only group I know of that did ZZ Gundam was AnimeSkyScraper. But, idk if their site or torrents are up anymore. Check www.torrentspy.com

    EDIT: ok, it looks like this is the only torrent up for ZZ:

    http://ts.searching.com/torrent/5191...ete_Collection

    Its a 10.5 GB torrent, so make sure you got space first.


    For all you awesome people, it's just Phoenix. The numbers are just the amount of times people misspell it.
