Ups:
Very realistic approach to war.
Great reversal of 'good guys/bad guys' ('good' Federation become the villians while rebels AEUG are the good guys)
Great original Mobile Suit designs, esp from the Titans batch, and Zeta still ranks as one of the coolest and original gundam designs ever.
Large cast of characters.
Intriguing plots, shifting alliances, lots of political intrigue
Great 'take no prisoners' climactic ending. Ending on a not neccessarily happy note.
Downs:
Story can plod and drag at times, and sometimes gets plain confusing.
Main characters is overly angsty, annoying and not charismatic or interesting. Just has a big chip on his shoulder.
Ok soundtrack, but nothing great.
Animation was great at the time, but can be a little dated now (remember the show IS 20 years old!)
