Despite on the onset being aimed at younglings (and future gunpla spending fans), there's no excuse for terribad writing and pacing. The great mobile suit designs and soundtrack (ED2 and ED4 plus the battle themes) can only help as much in the untried generational storyline.
With such subdued starting episodes, compared to its contempories, and the botched finale, which wasted episodes 46-48, Asem's chapter is probably the only episodes arc I'll enjoy rewatching in the near future.
