But yeah, I agree. I like it that some strong women of UC (like Haman Karn, Emma Sheen, Marida, etc) are treated with respect as in: no fanservice shots or nudity scenes of them (Newtype nude-flash doesn’t count). They pretty much rely on their characters. So far, the only “fanservice” we got from Mineva is her good looks which I find rare nowadays with the audience’s “I wanna see boobs & ass” mentality and anime studios’ “Let’s give them boobs & ass” tendency. I hope this habit continues on.

There you go. No but, Gundam does have alot of fanservice both in terms of boob/ass shots and shower scenes, it's just not as wide as other shows, yet. UC Does keep a high standard when it comes to the fanservice, in UC's terms it shows off Mechas people get hardons from instead of characters |

Anyway, I think what most people like about Gundam, besides the mecha porn, is that they can still take it seriously as a proper show regardless of it being an anime, esp. the UC shows (08th, UC etc). The plot, the lore, the characters and the drama are the main driving force for the franchise and that's what I enjoy the most out of it. |

Sumeragi's boobs don't bounce nearly as much as Murrue's. And at least Gundam 00 evens up the playing field by including naked men.
In all seriousness I'm glad that the UC Gundam series doesn't contain quite so much fan-service as a lot of the AU series. Too much can draw attention away from the storyline. Unless that was the point all along. *cough* SEED *cough* |
