I have nothing but positives to say about Gundam Seed. The art, the story, the character development, and the mecha...ALL GREAT!!! I do think that they did borrow the original gundam story a bit...BUT...I own the original gundam, and that art is just too unbearable to watch...I do think that the Aegis is interestingly colored...RED!...But hey Athrun is no Char...One thing that bothers me, is that the enemy could steal Gundams so easliy...Dating back to Mobile Suit Gundam 0083 : Stardust Memory the enemy keeps getting there hands on Gundams with ease...I don't get why they don't just make there own...Or why the good guys don't have better security so that the start-up of gundams aren't achieved so easily. But i guess we wouldn't have much of a story if that was the case...The Strike Gundam versus a bunch of GINNs would just make for a bad story...I have to admit I am only on episode 10, but I am really enjoying the show so far...

Very good adaptation to the original mobile suit gundam. It adds more to it in my opinion. The characters are very well done and seem to have a realistic personality. I say buy this series...i already have it and no regrets here:)

I like this anime and have watched the first series of it to the end. It is on cartoon network at 2:00 AM. on Saturday morning. If you are a late sleeper my suggestion is you buy this one and you won't be disappointed. Otherwise if you like getting up way early and I do you will enjoy this anime.

Drama : High (OMG Does tons of people die) All Episodes Watched (It's the greatest) Wow Xero gave it such high marks but then marked it a Watch. Edit : I just finished this, now this was a Pacifist Anime hiding within an incredible robot anime. Lacus and Kira were the Focus of an incredible anti war movement (Considering the number of people they have killed this is VERY ironic). What's really sad is this anime actually could be applied to our current situation right now. /sigh. Lesson Learned : Once nuclear missiles have been used by one side, BOTH sides will think that means they have free reign to kill 1 billion people because they belong to the 'other side'.

I found the story interesting. The character developement in the story is amazing. Actually the character emotions seems to be the greatest story plot in this story. At least in my opinion. The fighting was good, with a lot of confusing twists added on that were later explained at the near end of the story. At first the introduction of the story made it seem like an exact copy of the original Gundam. I mean even the ship "Archangel" seems very similar to the gundam's main ship. But later on the storyline drifted from the original story. I personally liked it, though I thought it could be better. The ending itself seemed very rushed.

The main story is a racist war between the Coordinators (ZAFT) and the Earth Alliance (Naturals). But 2 friends meet again on opposite sides of the battle field. How can u shoot your own best friend? Incoperated in this Gundam is the best of all the previous gundams. Mobile Armors from 8th MS team, White Base as Arch Angel, Bit weapon systems, something like Stardust Memory's GP03 DENDROBIUM, and you can never forget the bad ass Beam Cannons. Every Gundam and all the MS designs are excelent, no crappy looking GM's, Zaku's, and Leo's. This Series features some of the best music i've heard as well and itz animation is a level above any other anime i've viewed. If u watch the entire series, take a close look around for those "glamor" shots, they are beautiful. 50 episodes and a "perfect file" (DVD movie) are available on Ebay.

Gundam Seed is a 50 episode saga regarding the stuggles of the natural humans and genetically engineering humans. Much like our currently world, the extremist on both sides led their respective fractions into a deadly stuggle of survival. The series contains plenty of action, romace, drama, and like other gundam titles more sci-fi than you can ask for. This is a wonderfully scipted title that is well worth the time to watch. The music and the art works are amazaingly beautiful. There is even a PS2 game release for it in Japan. For those folks already unfamiliar with Gundam, this is a spun off title. Gundam Seed is a completely independent story that exist outside of the Gundam Universal time line. What does it mean? It simply means anyone can watch it without any previous knowledge of the Gundam world.

As you can see I think very highly of this series. To those who watch alot of Gundam and who like it, this series incorporates all the best stuff already done and brings in a more character driven, more rich plot, that isn't moved along through episode by episode narration. To those new to gundam, it's really easy to watch and really easy to enjoy. However I will say this, if you don't like action and you don't like mechs, you probally won't enjoy this as much. I still think it's worth watching though because it may grow on you.The series is currently up to 30 and is being fansubbed by animejunkies. You can buy the imported dvd's off of Animediscountdvd.com Sorry for the grammar and whatnot I wrote this really late, heh night.Oh and the site on the image is the official Japanese Site, so it's in Japanese... *states the obvious* o.o something new, there is currently 32 episodes released and subbed. The series will aire up to 56 and it is currently rated # 1 by the japanese readers of new type. Last updated Friday, May 23 2003. | ||||||||

Though this series has not finished yet it is at least 1/5 done. My review of this series will change as the series develops. From the first fifth of this brand new gundam series, it is not as impressive but not as bad as I thought it would turn out to be. My biggest beef with this series is that it borrows many and I mean many things from previous Gundam series. It doesn't have too much original content. The archangel is basically a redesign to the White Base(mobile suit gundam). Also newtypes to coordinators, notice what I'm getting? Some episodes were completely similar to those of the original series. I also didn't like the character designs, only a few look good. The pros however is that SEED is not as weak as Wing when it comes to story, it also comes in modern animation which I think was done decently(gladly it was superior to G-Saviour). I also like many of the mecha and designs. Only one stands out from the rest(I talk about it later int this review).The action at times is quite interesting, few boring ones. The music in this series is excellent especially the opening Invoke and the ending theme. Bunch that up together and you get above mediocre. Since the series is not completely done I hope for its sake that it makes more original material.(The Gundam Freedom is a recycle of many designs which you will see later, I think Okawara is quickly running out of ideas since he recycles about 6 mobile suits in this one gundam) The more original this series gets, the better it will do.
