About Shinn and Kira...

@monster

I was editing while you replied...

I missed to type the word *some* Nor did i specifically stated that impulse is a direct copy of Strike. As to my original reply to Znozzy im directly replying to his *great tactics like switching the backpacks midbattle with the sky graspers.* Which is a similar capability of Shinns Impulse.

2nd I may have misinterpret your reasoning behind your last post but it does really come off as a pro kira stance.. but re-reading the 3rd time now you are just being neutral.

You're right, you didn't. But you seemed to be under the impression that Kira was underutilizing his knowledge on the Strike, and that is not necessarily so. The fact is that Impulse had other capabilities besides merely changing packs. Capabilities that helped Shinn to launch an ongoing attack against Kira whereas, if he was using another suit, Shinn might've had to stop due to damages that would've been dealt by Kira with Freedom's weapons. Kira's knowledge of the Strike would've done little against those new capabilities that Impulse had.

This only makes kira more stupid not better.



And yet kira still didnt achieve a decisive victory against Shinn when shinn is in a lazier Suit.

Never said Kira had knowledge regarding the Impulse, what i meant was that both Shinn and Kira used their first suits to their full potential before they switched to their new ones

Shinn adapted and overcomes his opponent and won. Military training teaches not to be predictable or else the enemy will predict your actions.

2nd I don't remember in my 4 tour of duties in the fronlines where anyone fought fair.. Its sad that kira biased fanboy's have to bring up nonsense of fairness crap talk in discussions.... which is ..... unfair

Shinn studied with Rey to win over Kira in the Freedom, which is a really, really smart thing to do, kudos to Shinn there.

Nice post cookies for you

Being prepared prior a battle is a must in any professional military unit.. This helps to achieve victory and improve *better* performance

Exactly, that's why i said Kira is being arrogant and stupid in my previous posts, he is stuck on a high horse, in the end that bit him in the ass.

I get it!!!... so when a kira fan #34543645674778 randomly brings up DAT KIRA IS DA BEST!!! and Shinn SUXORS!!!we are all suppose to accept that by default? Dont think so..

Kira sucks, Shinn sucks, Athrun sucks, Lunamaria is the best pilot, also why wouldnt you accept it? it's the way the show is designed

And assuming I didn't imagine it, Rey had Athrun's help in analyzing Kira's battle tactics, or at least he gave him a base to start with.

I don't recall that ever happening. I do remember when Athrun got mad when he found out that Shinn and Rey were planning how to defeat Freedom.

I seem to recall Athrun telling Rey that Kira never targets the cockpit, instead preferring to aim for weapons or the head of the MS he's targeting. I forget the exact episode, but it was when Rey and Shinn started compiling data on the Freedom to find a strategy to defeat it.

If your insinuating that the all the main pilots do suck, you wont have me disagreeing you here.

He never did, he got upset when he found out Laserbarrel and Shinn where plotting to shoot down his beloved Kira

Tbh, the only pilot imo with skill was Mwu, not Neo, but Mwu.

[rakusukira]

everyone is backstabbing Shinn when the dumbest character in GSD was Athrun

[winter45]

Backstabbing shinn not so much.. being biased against shinn over petty things, its what i see the most. Just go thru the threads and its posted down nearly everywhere when a shin related topic pops up.

Only in mobile armor though.

HES NOT A COORDINATORRRRRRRRR> j/k.

[germanturkey]

Athrun is dumb cause he left Cagalli. obviously. man, knowing that at least SEED is being re-aired is getting me into a fighting mood. haha

[Znozzy]

Well, that was because Cagalli's VA was getting into fights with fukuda and his wife, if i recall, so they decided to butcher her character

How Cagalli's character is handled has little to do with the fact that Athrun left, which is what germanturkey was talking about.

No they didn't, that's a rumor that was created to smear the Director and writer.

Most likely what happened was that they decided to separate Athrun and Cagalli so they could have stories involving Meer, and Lunamaria falling in love with Athrun. The exact same thing happened to Spider-man (although Gundam Seed Destiny is a lot better than One More Day). This negatively effected Cagalli as the storyline they did for her was pretty bad.

Sometimes bad storylines happen, you don't need to come up with elaborate scenarios to explain it.

It's magic Lacus Dust. We don't have to explain it. -- Fukuda

I think you might be thinking about Gundam 00, outside of Mu La Flaga being alive there's not really anything he needs to explain. The two C.E tv series is frankly one of the better examples of being fairly realistic compared to the ending of Zeta Gundam or how G.N particles tend to have multiple usage with no explanation.

[Znozzy]

There is nothing realistic about the ending to Destiny. Seed having the Zaft leadership overrun? yeah. that works.

But Destiny? No.

Are you sure? if i recall there was arguments between the VA's and Moro/Fuku in Destiny, so Moro rewrote some scripts and ended up butchering Cagalli, i dont remember where i read it but if i recall it was from the same guy who provided the infamous " i've had enough of the stock footage " papernote

The Zaft leader is dead, and Lacus is a beloved figure in Zaft (hence Durandal's using Meer) so she was the natural choice of replacement.

In all my years arguing with people about this I have yet to find any proof about an argument between Fukuda, Morosawa and Shindo. The only VA I know that complained was Kenichi Suzumura and that was years after the series was over and about the ending.

The guy you're talking about complained about how Morosawa was late with the scripts (which is what caused the massive numbers of recap episodes)
