The sky is the absolute limit here....Colonel Mihael, Guin Lineford, hell any earthrace member who hated the moonrace could have been used to do damage ... damage that would not have been possible (or much harder) to inflict had Dianna stayed in her place... Quote:
Putting a possible enemy into the leadership position of your military was a risk that could have lead to bad leadership at best and sabotage of the hightest order at worst..... The risk was not worth taking to someone who actually cares about the people of the moon and the Earth. It is a risk that did NOT need to be taken and has not been taken by anyone else in any other anime I've seen... |

That sums up my thoughts. The fighting seemed to be at a low intensity until Gym Ghingnham attacked. Luziana didn't want a full-blown war, and the Moonrace "Queen" had specifically ordered the Dianna Counter against escalation. If it weren't for Guin's actions, the Dianna Counter might not have really fought with Ameria at all.

Spoiler for Guin:
I'd say the only thing I did dislike was the general level of power for the Earth side; sometimes it was really lacking, and Loran would do most of the fighting. |

People nowadays do not have the patience to wait for flowers to bloom and even less patience for it to bear fruits.
I always felt a great sense of pity for Tomino's recent works and how people don't have the patience. Somehow people are talking about plot and trainwrecks when they're so extremely shallow that they can't even see past designs and what is presented to them. Doesn't look cool = boring, no action = slow pace, doesn't spoonfeed you the story = no plot. What?

That's because Fukuda was a blatant panderer and his direction was overtly shallow. His direction was a mess, just look at Destiny.
Tomino's direction is very mature and is more novel-like in terms of pacing and approach, having had three decades under his belt to get over the "wow kids with flashy poses, flashy recycled animations, and boobs" formula.

Turn A Gundam shows that you don't need all action for a series to be a winner. Personally it's my favorite from the franchise for music, character (their development and interaction) and story. Why can't people just give it a break, and not expect action action action. We get this from a lot of people when there's an episode of Gundam 00 with no action.

Recently watched Turn A Gundam and have to say that I love the series. Colorful cast of characters, great character development, and a rather unique take on the mobile suits. Makes SEED and Destiny extremely shallow and bad. Loran is a pretty good Gundam protagonist and riding the White Doll. Had to get use to the mecha designs as they are rather primitive, except for Turn A, Turn X, and the SUMO.

I have recently seen the whole series, too. And i like it. The character development, and the whole history. But i think the Ending was too quickly.
It's true that Turn A Gundam don't have many fight action, but there are not need it. I love the swich of Diana and Keheil. And in the beginig i dont think that Lily Borjano was going to be a clever and wise character in the end. Those are the small things that made the serie enjoyable. |

The ending was pretty bright and optimistic, but it presents the characters going ahead for the future. Gym doesn't strike me as a true antagonist, as he was just bored and wanting to go to war on Earth.
