8th MS Team
Gundam 0080

Out of all the Gundam series you've seen, which is your all-time favorite?

I wonder who voted for Wing. Gundam Wing is among the WORST Gundam series made, simply because of the way it's all presented. There are 5 invincible Gundams who do nothing but destroy big armies of mobile suits and talk about how great war is.
MSG is the best. Actually, I was considering choosing other, for Gundam X or Z Gundam or something else, but I think Mobile Suit Gundam, starting it all, was the best I've seen.
There is no option for "none"?![]()
none of these are my fav....wait I like msg
"Little did Speed Racer know that Racer X was his long lost brother Rex."
-Speed Racer (everytime Racer X is on the screen)
What's wrong with Gundam Wing?It's one of my favorite animes!

and following them, you reach your destiny."

Msg is better...but not by much to wing
"Little did Speed Racer know that Racer X was his long lost brother Rex."
-Speed Racer (everytime Racer X is on the screen)
I voted 08th MS Team because I've only seen this and Gundam 0080 and I like the former better.
Side Note:
I wanted to watch Mobile Suit Gundam, but I have this problem where I must watch the show from the beginnng to watch the whole series. I had the opportunity to watch MSG starting on episode 5, (I couldn't watch it before because I didn't have cable), but I declined and decided to wait for the second run because Toonami ALWAYS has a second consecutive run for a new series. But I didn't see a second run because I got screwed by Toonami (along with everyone else).
I didn't watch Gundam Wing because I simply didn't have Toonami when it was on.

Everything's wrong with Wing. It's just a complete 180 of Gundam. I guess that makes some people like it, but it's supposed to be more than just giant robots beating the crap of armies of giant robots. I just don't see what's so great about giant robots beating the crap out of armies of giant robots.
I'd say Mobile Suit Gundam, because I liked seeing how Amuro's character grew from the begining to the end.
Plus, Char was pretty cool.

MSG - I'm a fan of old school animation (brings back fond memories). Good story and reasonably OK characters (no plethora of pretty boys that get turned into 'twisted' fan-fics)

Gundam Wing was what I voted for, its still my favorite anime series. It is about way more than just "big giant robots beating the crap out of armies of giant robots". The battles are a major part of the story, I don't deny that, but it was also about politics, terrorism, and the fact that war is becoming a pushbutton thing we do from a distance rather than fighting the battles and understanding war's true nature. I don't say that the other gundam series don't have their meanings as well, they do, but this one is the best in my opinion.Originally posted by KingKoopa

Well, since the only other Gundam series that I've seen besides what was on the poll list is X (which I liked), so far MSG has been my favorite.
But... I like giant robots beating the crap out of each other...Originally posted by KingKoopa

I liked MSG the best! Perfect balance of plot and action.
How can you not like even one Gundam series!? Seriously, there's a Gundam series out there to suit just about any taste imaginable.Originally posted by Mysterious Saturn

*shrugs* Oh well, whatever floats your boat, I guess.
Uh, I think this thread was devised for Gundam fans only.
