Gundam AGE General Discussion Thread

[D-KLAC]

mention the ratings well just 00verrated was too hype to jump to get ratings give it just really the tv ratings don't seem worth it now due to internet tv.

besides IF compare both 00verated & GS era ratings yea even with internet tv GS era still had good better doing.

really IF unless they get a series to match "level" of GS era or yet finally give us a female lead gundam pilot protagnist 50eps series then it would new chapter.

Set a series in the modern day, where Japan's next gen tanks are called "Gundams", an they fight against the tyranny of North Korea.

*waits for everyone to explode in rage*

Well, the data is for the Kantou region. In Kansai, the ratings for Ep 1 of GSD were -

Demographics/TV Ratings breakdown for Ep 1 of Gundam Seed Destiny -

Total　KID　TEN　 *M1  *M2　 *M3   *F1　 *F2　 *F3 
*8.4　*6.2　10.9　11.7　*3.6　*1.3　*3.6　*4.2　*2.0　

The tilt is quite obvious there...

Anyway, TV ratings are an inexact science but the general trend is that the viewers are dominated by TENs and M1s.

I believe it was mentioned in a recent interview of someone important (Tomino?) about how MSG had a sizable female fanbase due to its dramatic storyline. I highly, highly doubt it was the majority though.

You really do mean that Gundam Seed's atrocious showings actually cause people to avoid Gundam 00.

You can direct a Gundam show yourself.

i agree. it might have introduced the show to a new audience but all in all i think the show was just pure fanservice.
i liked it back then (and im one of those it introduced to gundam, too :P) but today i cant stand it anymore XD i hate kira, i hate most of the other characters, the only thing i REALLY like is the mecha design.
and dont get me started on GSD :P

and 00 isnt overrated at all and especially not fail. season 1 was AWESOME! season 2 was still pretty good but some of the plot elements just went no where and everything was just.... weird.


i think a new gundam series should be original and unlike the stuff we have seen so far (no generic "dude finds gundam and can pilot it instantly" or a "4 or more dudes in gundams dominate everything and then get more and more problems along the way" plot please!) but still about some sort of conflict like a war or something. id be a happy camper if they did it like that :P

They saved a bunch of useless clip shows and flashbacks. Not to mention battle scenes.

STFU and go read Ecole du Ciel then ya bloody wanker. That or try other anime ! Amazing! Female leads in other mecha shows? Unheard of!

[JC...]

I sort of hate the character designs of Ecole Du Ciel, why does everything have to be or resemble moe characters? Seriously, can't people just enjoy a good story without having to make the characters look like dolls or half chibi hybrids!?

Gunbuster\Diebuster?

[D-KLAC]

yea come on it about those gundam people finally put main lead female protagnist gundam pilot tv series.

besides come it like so obvious the one thing that they do already right now besides after so many ideas female lead is the likely to do list.

come we even got u.s. president that is black person so what wrong having a main lead gundam protagnist pilot being a female?

[Rising Dragon]

What's wrong with it is that you want it. Therefore, we don't need it.

First of all, get your facts straight: he's half-black. Second, what the hell does the US having a mixed president have to do with JAPAN. Wake up, D-KLAC. (I'm convinced the name means "Dumbass Kid Lacking Any Competency")

[D-KLAC]

You reference the KLAC, but not the D, so you admit to being a dumbass? (jk)

We get that you want a female Gundam pilot, but seriously... STOP SAYING IT IN EVERY FRAKING POST! *coughs twice*
