Gundam Serie/Series you Dislike
I like Gundam but they're some gundam series i hate sooooo damn much like for example gundam serperior defender that sucks chiefs chocoballs. But the gundam series i hate the most is any gundam series that people don't pilot, it just piss me off liek what ever the person does the gundam will do the same thats STUPID!!! soo anygundam series where people acualy pilot it is a good gundam series :D. that my opinon.
|
But that can't be true, as G Gundam is bloody awesome and GSD isn't by any stretch of imagination bloody awesome.
|
yeah g gundam is a good series but i don't like the idea of people controlling gundams that way
|
Common sense tells you that the cockpit motion trace system is actually a more efficient way to pilot and makes much more sense than 'conventional piloting'. I always don't get how a pilot can shoot, punch, kick, dodge, flip, grab and do delicate finger movements just by 2 hand controls and 2 foot pedals.
Anyway GSD is going to be bashed in this thread, count me in! |
Not a series, but F91. It makes me sad, there is so much potential there. It's completely wasted on that movie, it practically screams for a series instead.
Gundam 0083 I vary between liking it and hating it. Delete Nina and I would love it. |
Gundam seed sucked. I liked it up until the last 2 episodes. The final battle was SO CLICHE!!! anf Flay dieing didn't help anything. I HATED THAT PART!

I found Zeta to be a very excellent series (except for the overcompensation of main character deaths...poor Emma ='( ) There's something about almost every Gundam series that I liked. One's I didn't like that much was Gundam Wing, Gundam SEED and Gundam SEED Destiny. A.) WAY too one-sided unless the story calls for it. I mean..one bullet from a Gundam Wing Gundam to a grunt Mobile Suit and it explodes, yet, put a large beam into a Gundam and it barely does jack unless, again, the story calls for it (or it self-destructs). Then put a Gundam Wing Gundam Pilot into that SAME type of grunt Mobile Suit and they can take like...1000 gatling gun shots all over the place and only have a few scratches (coughcoughendlesswaltzcoughcough) B.) Gundams were far too over-powered for their own good C.) Characters were bland and not that interesting most of the time and barely have any development to make them interesting. D.) Rushed endings/battles E.) Like most alternate reality Gundam series' except for, mostly, G-Gundam and Turn-A Gundam, ideas were almost all taken from the original series' (especially SEED Destiny) I liked the original UC series' because they were actually good, yet realistic as well. The character's were interesting most of the time and actually learned things and overcome various obstacles, but not without difficulties like regular people face everyday. They don't really last too long or too short either. The mobile suits were much more equalized and even the "all powerful" Gundam's get (out)matched by "grunt" mobile suits as technology grows, so even though at first the Gundam may seem like the most powerful, it doesn't last TOO long. The grunts were actually good Mobile Suits (GO GELGOOG!!!!) and not JUST cannon fodder (even the RB-79K Ball was cool thanks to Shiro Amada's good piloting). And even though revolutionary weaponry like the funnels and other "super weapons" are good and/or effective, they are not without limitations that can/are exploited. Funnels with their limited energy supply, the Big Zam with its overheating and melee combat weakness and so on. Even being a Newtype/Cyber Newtype/EXAM junkie (lol) didn't make someone completely invincible in the UC era (good example being Yuu Kajima in a regular RGM-79 vs RX-79BD-1 Blue Destiny and fending it off or his RGM-79D Cold Climate Type vs. MS-08TX(EXAM) Efreet Custom and, again, fending it off.) And even with his own EXAM-equipped MS (RX-79BD-1 and RX-79BD-3), he still ended up losing them along with defeating the opponent. Even the "all-powerful" Amuro Ray admits that he wasn't able to properly control his fin funnel's in his second sortie of the Nu Gundam (I think it was the 2nd one when Kayra gets killed by Gyunei) |
G Gundam, Gundam Wing and Gundam 0080.
|
SD Gundam Force sucked, except, EXCEPT, for the Zako Zako hour. (Zako Zakos are easily among the top Gundam moments)
0080 sucked, since the action weren't all that great, and that kid needs to die. Other than that, I like most Gundam shows... |
GSD. Easily the worst Gundam series ever. This one doesn't need any explaining for anybody who has seen it, besides which, its many many faults have been pointed out and debated upon in these forums more times than any of us could ever accurately remember. :heh:
Wing. As RX-78GP04G Gerbera pointed out, the "Invinceability Factor" as well as his other points. GW got me hooked on Gundam, but I'm not going to call a not-good/bad series good just because it was what started me on the franchise. |
For me - I didn't like GSD much. It screamed of fan pandering, as well as rushedness.
0083 was good for the mech design (Come one, look at the Dendrobium and tell me you don't like it, tech inconsistencies aside), but my favourites are 08th MS Team, Turn A and GX. |
One I dislike? None.
Even G-Saviour was amusing to an extent. But the only series I find to truly deliver in both style and substance are merely SEED, Turn-A, Victory, X and G. |

Movie version of Zeta is extremely superior to the TV series. I actually enjoyed the movies. TV series I would not watch again if someone offered me a million dollars. Quote:

I´m not used being looked down upon but if that´s what I get for enjoying Destiny I´ll just have to take it. Atleast we know we had a good time when we saw Destiny while they didn´t. ;) ------------------------------------- Zeta on the other hand is overrated. After reading about it in here I expected a lot more than I´ve gotten so far. Zeta is good but it´s not that good. **UC-Fanboys, OBSERVE!!!** Take note that I´m not comparing Zeta to Destiny. |

In all honesty I don't like the series of Zeta too much for reasons mentioned that it is boring however at least it actually had good fights but the movies are fantastic compilations. Its like Zeta with all the pointless bits cut out. (Okay if you neglect the canon changing ending at least)
Anyway this is easy for me. GSD- Horribly one sided fights, incoherent half-assed story and reasons, forced relationships, technology seemingly advanced nearly 300 years in only 2-3. A pure super robot series which tries to advertise itself as a real robot series, too many goddamn main characters when they obviously can't handle them like some writers. Shamelessly ripped off elements with 'tribute' slapped on them, and many repeated elements from SEED except made worse. At least it had great music. G-Saviour- Nuff said....only good thing about it is its hillarious....hillariously bad. Superior Defender Gundam- An insult to the SD Gundam or Musha Gundam name in general. SD Gundam doesn't need any story, just unadulterated humour and mayhem. Other not as bad mentions:- Char's Counterattack- Now this movie was pretty awesome for fights, but the story just made little sense. Char had seemingly gone crazy. It started halfway through the story, plus some rather incoherent characters. Incomplete ending left open. I feel if they actually gave Tomino more time and less stick, the full Beltorchika's children would've proved a far more enlightening movie than CCA. Gundam Wing- Actually I really liked the idea and concept in it, philosophical sometimes to the point of being silly but some stuff made alot of sense. However in the end the story jumped about, fights were pretty one sided. (Thankfully both were fixed in Endless Waltz) Though the silly re-designs looked out of place, they should've stuck with the original Katoki designs. Well at least G-Wing did allow 2 of the best spin off series to happen. Also sorry but when it comes to politics Gundam Wing did have the best outlook of any series. Wars are always political and based on ideals in a real environment and no other Gundam series seems to enforce this as much, Wing tried it but failed, though theres always the music to fan over at least. F91- Really nice concept but again suffers from CCA syndrome, it just did not have enough time but unliek CCA it did not have a existing story or characterizations. It really should've been a full series especially since it did setup the scenario for what I consider one of the best and criminally denied/forgotten Gundam series ever (Crossbone Gundam) Zeta- Uh hum....debated but yeah it is slow and boring even when I'm a story/explanation kind of guy, alot of pointless parts which are fixed by the movie. Great fights at least and nice scenario plus abit of politics thrown around now and again made the scenario much more surreal and actually kept the atmosphere consistent. *glares at C.E.* |

Looking back, I kinda realise that GSD fanbase suffered from jumping the bandwagon. A few more critical people listed out the bad things they find in GSD, then more people start hating GSD, and more people find the faults in GSD and eventually, they stopped looking at any good point in the anime altogether. MAJORITY would've probably end up not liking GSD anyway, but the fanbase itself really hurt it more than it deserves. Meh, it's my opinion and as a GSD fan, my opinion's shit anyway. |
I don't really dislike any of the Gundam series ive watched, but Zeta/ZZ, Wing and Victory are the ones I didn't like that much.
And as Obi said, Tomino is overrated. Saying that Destiny has one sided battles is just fun, especially when Amuro Ray goe s and own everything except Char in the UC series, sure he was emo in Zeta. Gundam SEED/GSD are the better Gundam series in my book, not so much slapping as in Zeta. |
:D.. for me its Gundam Wing .. For all the rave reviews from some of you here, I was hoping I could like the series.. but very dissappointing .. and honestly, i prefer rewatching GS then watching GW ... And Relena easily could be 2nd in my hated character list .. With Gon HxH being the 1st. The fact that I do finished watching GW is one of a miracle to me (unlike HxH which I quit at ep 20+)

As I recall, this thread is specifically made to say what series-es you dislike. So Obi, why don't you just not pay attention to other people's opinions, as I did. :p I didn't utter a word about your opinion that Zeta and Victory are boring. Even when Gerbera disagreed with you, I didn't go into anything about whether or not you were wrong in your opinion and I still won't, despite Zeta and Victory being two of my favorite Gundam serie-es. Obviously you've just got a problem accepting others' opinions. We all know you like GSD. You've made it perfectly clear before. So the only reason you have to tell me to "shut up" is if you don't accept other people's opinions, which is, quite frankly, your problem and not mine.
As for the jumping the bandwagon thing, I kept up the belief that GSD would be a great series as I watched it, and then made my judgement that it sucked after seeing the final episode aired. Until then, I was keeping the opinion that GSD would be good, but the series didn't deliever. So I for one didn't jump the wagon until the show was over. And Last_Hope, I don't see why you're saying here that somebody will post about something being bad just because somebody else said it was good, since nobody, even Obi, said a word about GSD being good. |

I do believe that GSD is a stinking pile of shit, but I also believe that it could have been one of the best anime shows ever if the production hadn't been so plagued, and with a few changed elements. What GSD most fundamentally lacks is feeling and suspense. Quote:
The number of moments like these for the main pilots in GSD can be counted on one hand, and some may even be disqualified, for example the destruction of Freedom - we already knew that it was going to be destroyed or seriously maimed, and Kira didn't think anything about it later other than that he lost Lacus' precious sword. Besides these there are other things that make the battles so one-sided. Sure, Amuro took out nine Rick Doms while they were exiting Side 6, a very impressive tally. However, Shinn took on 30 Windams and Neo, and won. Of course, the Windams didn't actually do anything, all Shinn had to do was to shoot a Windam, block a shot from Neo, rinse and repeat - that's a one-sided battle, since the Windams were there just to blow up. Then Kira took out 25 GOUFs and ZAKUs and three Nazca-class ships in two minutes with SF, and he toyed with the Babis in Freedom in episode 26, and Shinn toyed with Destroys in the last 12 episodes. The scale is completely different. While the main pilots in UC certainly do kill their share of enemies and are important presences on the battlefield, it's because they're the Good Guys - they're supposed to win. However, they do still face challenges, and the ordinary grunts don't usually hang still in the air waiting for a subsonic boomerang to nail both of them. Look at the last episodes of GS, with the battles against the druggies. There was suspense, Kira's life was in danger several times, it made for excellent fights despite some instances of reused animation since there was that aura of suspense. Now look at GSD - there's just the reused animation, with no feelings behind it. |

I pretty much agree. While there were some moments of annoyance in the first 12 episodes, they were generally good and more important than anything else, they showed promise regarding the show's future - they were setting up events and characters.
Unfortunately, nothing from the first twelve episodes actually bore fruit later on... |
i realy realy hate the story of g-gundam or gundam g or whatever :S
why pilot a thing like that then you can even put a break dancer in the gundam and let the gundam break dance :S and the story i also dislike :S |
I don't hate any particular series. Any Gundam series is fine by me since each have their own particular merits. I only dislike parts or certain circumstances of them. And hate is a strong word.
For example: Spoiler:
BTW, I'm impressed this still isn't a legendary topic. I thought this woud be deleted quite quickly since the topic seemed trollbait. |
Gundam Wing. I never got this series. Characters are either bad or mediocre, the mecha design sucked (okay, the Tallgeese is kinda cool). And it isn't like the action was all that impressive either. Story had some original elements, but all in all it's at steaming pile of crap.
Seed Destiny. Lots of wasted potential all around. Insert all the common complaints here. |

Fyi since you apparently didn't realize it, I said "the many many faults have been debated many many times before." I didn't say everybody hates it. Most of the people I know who watched GSD don't like it, and most of the people I know who liked it still acknowledge its faults, so by asking anybody who watched it, chances are you'll find its faults anyway, hence "ask anybody who watched it." And as I said, we know you like GSD, so that automatically dissproves your idea that I believe and want to say everybody hates it, since if I know that you (as well as others) like it, then I can't believe everybody dislikes/hates it. Not to mention, I was like one of two or three people here who said "I dislike/hate GSD," out of what, 10-15 people? Obviously not everybody dislikes/hates it. So, yeah.

probaly gundam seed destiny, because it was practically like gundam seed.... like more like a replay...... but it started off good ..... well if there IS GS 3 i hope it won't be like another repeat..... but i liked GS but GSD totally blew me off, like not enough creativity...
example: Freedom ---> Strike Freedom Justice ---> Infinite Justice Strike ---> Impulse Providence ---> Legend like they have to create more newer gundams, not similar ones .... !! |
Hmm thats not a tough choice.
0080- That series just didn't work for me. Boring to the core, with uninteresting chracters. G-Gundam- just couldn't get into it, still can't. Crappy looking gundam's at every turn, but humours stereotyping. Zeta- Yes i said it. (prefers GSD to Zeta, perfers even pokemon to Zeta.) an all around cast of crummy chracters with an exception of a few. boring parts seemed to go on. The titans actions make no sense almost, especially towards the end. (like every jumping to the scirroco bandwagon, only to get vaporized in the end. Scirocco was just a plain sorry villian. Compared to Gilbert, he's nothing) CCA- worse gundam movie ever (my opinion) Char just out and out sucked. The Actions of the Zeon just disgusted me. (they are gold diggers in a sense) first they were Zabi fan boys, then Haman, then Char (who dissed both Haman and the Zabi's, what happened to thier fanatical fanboyism/fangirlism?) Char's motives sucked it just ruined hsi chracter. |
reply
CCA is just like the real world really...
People need something to believe in...people like Zeon Zum Deikun...the Zabi Family...Haman Karn....Char...they all gave people something to believe in and something they felt they could live for and without a leader, they felt completely lost and had no idea what to do. Char's motives aren't really much different from Gilbert's really...they want to completely change humanity into something different and "better" to their eyes. Though while Char is more upfront and actually works towards his goal up close, Gilbert sits back and controls things from behind the scenes. |
in my opinion it would have to be F91 and turn A worst Gundam series ever Rofl
GSD Rock!! it had the anti GSD haters and the Fanboys waiting over night every weekends for each episode... Obi-Wan you should ignore shinji, he hates GSD,kira,lacus,clyne faction and i doubt anything will ever change his mind. |
I like the 08 ms team &0083
OVA of gundam can be always better than TV. and film i think shiro amada is a good leader,that‘s the reason i prefer him to amuro ray。 a superman can't win a war . we need good forces and leaders that is what 08ms want to tell us |

Although I'll most certainly and gladly change my opinion about GSD if the SEs are good. And I already told Obi to ignore me, and Nightengale also told him to ignore me as well, but he still chooses not to. I'm just not paying attention to him now though, to avoid any further forum emo here. :heh: |
Ignore, hmm...but then it wouldn't be any fun. If everyone just got to say what they wanted without anyone talking back, forums would boring as all hell.
