Gundam 00


Alrite. i have to admit that i'm not much of a gundam fan really. dont worry if you are not because i understand why. It is just pure plain boring if you watch them like halfway or something. Unlike those cool-like-shit robot cartoons u get when u were around 6-7 years old, there's a lot of talking and less fighting in the gundam animes. 

Until now. or maybe coz i've grown up coz Gundam 00 really does look like they kick ass. Alrite, another short history lesson. Gundam, where they might look similar in all the cartoons, are discontinuous - meaning each series is independent and not connected, much like final fantasy games where all of them have similar features but each of them are immersed in a totally different world altogether (japanese have a fetish for this kinda thing). 

So Gundam 00 is another series by itself and surprisingly, it has got a very matured theme unlike the rest of the anime that i'm catching. Political issues, racial and religion wars etc something which are happening in our world now. That's why it's very interesting. the first few episodes are quite standardly boring with more talks than fights but after a while, it really gets going and yeap, one of the more interesting shows i've catched this year :)
