But overall SEED is decent, GSD is a really bad Gundam series though.

And if you're really into philosophy/plot/character development, Turn A would be the best. Its famous for its outstanding character development, but some people have trouble liking its mecha design. But it gets onto people, they soon learn the mustache is awesome and the fights are epic.

All but the diehards would agree that Gundam Seed is at least worth checking out. The beginning is a bit of a rehash of Mobile Suit Gundam, but it does find its own voice fairly quickly, and it's one of the most accessible Gundam TV shows. Gundam Seed is pretty decent in terms of plot and character but the philosophy for it is a bit on the lacking side; although that's true of just about all Gundam shows. Where Seed really shines though is in its ability to flesh out an interesting universe. Whether you should watch Destiny or not largely depends on how much you liked Seed.

You might want to take my suggestions with a grain of salt since I thought that Gundam 00 was dreadful in terms of plot, characterization and especially philosophy.

if you had to pick, which one did you guys like better...seed or 00?
