Uh, but that's the greatest thing in the franchise.


LOL. Never change, penguintruth. Never change. Your comical attempts to defend Zeta are amusing.

Even the terrible Wing is better than Zeta, so how you can claim Zeta is the best in the franchise is beyond me.

Nuclear Physics 101: fission reactors cannot blow up with the force of a nuclear bomb. It's categorically impossible. Of course, this is Gundam SEED Destiny where nothing is impossible, even the stupid things. Especially the stupid things.

It seems to me that Gundam X is the ONLY series that fans don't fight over. Everyone seems to love it as much as each other. I guess that makes it the most appreciated Gundam series to date.

Gundam Seed Destiny has three main characters

1-8 Athrun (the story mainly deals with his problem of trying to atone for his Father's action)
9-40 Shinn (mainly dealing with anger problems and growing mental instability
42-50 Kira (Mainly dealing with the fact that the fans really really like Kira)

Given the fact that all three are going on at the same time this is obviously confusing and overcomplicates things.

Oh, you mean this series?

'Cause all I see are my eyelids because I'm cringing so much at its terribleness.

That's the biggest load of bullsh*t anyone has ever said. Pack up your bags and kindly leave the realm of 'people with brains'.

So this is turning into one of those threads, huh?

Now all we need is KLAC's input...

You are a sad, sad person who won't acknowledge the reign of the KING OF HEARTS.

LOOK! THE EAST IS BURNING RED!

Edit: And in Japanese

Nope. Not really a humorous person.

Besides, people who take cartoons THAT seriously are a waste of time and thought. The kind who are like 'What I like is the best, you must agree!' and they're all over the net.

People, please. There is not right/wrong answer to the best/worse Gundam series/character. "OPINIONS".

I personally didn't like G Gundam. And Enjoyed 0080 war in the pocket, and Gundam 00 season 1. I enjoyed Gundam 00 season 2 until the last 3 episodes. Those were awkward.

Anyways back on topic, I'm not surprised about a Destiny HD. It just doesn't matter much to me, cause I doubt they'll ever release these over seas. I don't do well with online streaming.

Absolutely positive that you can't pull the "taking cartoons seriously" card after boasting of having seen all of Gundam.

And you still haven't seen G Gundam, so my previous point stands.

Yes, I do believe good taste IS beyond you.

Zeta Gundam has the best, most involved storyline, stand out, enigmatic and colorful villains, pleasing mechanical and character designs, great soundtrack, fantastic Japanese voice cast, and an unforgettable climax. It inherits the world of the first series very well and improves on it and is extremely gripping. It's a masterpiece.

This coming from the guy who holds Zeta up to be the greatest Gundam series ever. Priceless.

Of course there are right and wrong answers. Some series are better than others, so saying that a bad series is better than a superior series is just plain wrong no matter how you slice it.

[Mod Edit: Incorrect. What's good and bad is subjective and saying "it's good because I think so" is not a valid argument. Art is subjective and just deal with it, because this "it is better because I say so and that is fact" is not going to fly anymore.]

Pray tell, who is? Dear god, it's not Athrun. Dear god, it's not Kira. DEAR GOD, THERE IS NO MAIN CHARACTER IN DESTINY.


The main character in Destiny is clearly Athrun Zala.

And he's probably the only tolerable one in the show.

Hm, not seeing a lot of arguments to the contrary. But don't worry, maybe somebody else with an actual opinion will come along and you can piggyback off of theirs.
