Hi everyone, I'm not even sure if my questions belongs here or not but here it is:

"Is anything Gundam out of bounds for the videos or what?"

I had some ideas for clips involving Gundam but I haven't ever noticed much if anything done with it, is there a reason for this like nobody can find anything to do or is it too serious (That I highly doubt after 0 and /0) or perhaps there is another reason like copyright nazis?

If someone could help on this matter it would be much appreciated.

No. People are just too lazy to use Gundam. Unless you're talking about those occasional nude scenes they used to have in some of the series. Those content guidelines for Minis are fairly loose. As long as you can't hear "****" or "****" in a clip and no genitals are present, anything goes, really.

Not sure how they'd handle a joke about Loran Cehack's seemingly non-existent genitals, but I managed to get in a Votoms clip about a nude pilot, so...


Also, I recall there being a Gundam 00 clip in Season 2, episode 4 of Minis.

Thanks, I was actually thinking of using a scene from MS-08th Team.

Gumdam isn't that popular anymore, at least I've yet to meet a fan irl out of the tons of anime fans I've meet. Popularity has part to do with what shows end up in the hells.

Go ask one of those fat, slobbering Hetalia fans about Kira Yamato. They'll probably know, unfortunately.

In my experience, 00 is the new Seed. Whenever I try to discuss Gundam with "anime fans" I meet IRL, they'll only want to talk about Lockon Stratos and not even about his skill or machine, but rather "how cool he looks".

00 had sorts of innovation (Season 1 and the antagonists of the Awakening of the Trailblazer) in comparison to the other gundam shows, with the exception of G, while SEED, on the other hand, was worthless and generic. I mean, 00, at the least, had quite a few subplots rolling for it which made it somewhat interesting during the first season. Comparing second seasons, well, DESTINY was by far the worst entry in the Gundam franchise with Kira Yamato being the worst character in the Gundam franchise (Every character in AGE was more interesting than Kira ever was. Let that sink in.)

By the way, what about Lockon's (Neil and Lyle)design made him look cool? He looked pretty average to me. I mean, they could be talking about his voice actor (Who was probably one of the better roles in 00's dub. Although, Setsuna ****ing Seiei's voice actor did a good job at delivering Setsuna's development from monotonous robot to confused innovator.) His AotT gundam was pretty cool looking, though.

I agree. I used to really like 00 until I realized that the second season threw out the moral question from the first season of "Is Celestial Being good?" and just changed it to "Never mind, it's time for black and white morality! Go get em', Setsuna! Your side is unquestionably the correct one!"
I haven't seen Destiny yet and I sure don't plan to. I may watch the Seed compilation movie later on when I'm bored, though.

I was talking to some teenaged girls. They think practically any animu guy looks cool. I don't even think they were paying attention to the plot. One girl seemed surprised when I told her that Lyle and Neil weren't the same guy. They never commented on his dub voice, and these were the type of people that liked Naruto, I didn't expect too much from them in the first place...

I agree. Setsuna's voice could've been much worse. I still haven't seen that movie, but I've had it lying around on my hard drive for a while, now.

Animation and MS designs are great. Plot is questionable. Ending is ambiguous, desu ex machina, UNDERSTANDING with a giant space flower. The "Celestial Being: The Movie" was the best scene in the movie.

I managed to see that part somewhere. A guy I know that really likes 00, despite its flaws, showed me gg's sub of that specific scene and told me to watch the rest of the movie.

i didnt much care for awakening of the trailblazer, only parts i really enjoyed out of it were celestial being the movi and the fact that one of the random ship captains looked like johnny depp

Thanks for answering the question I asked and for confirming that there are still Gundam fans out there that don't like Seed.

Personally I'm more for UC era, SIEG ZEON!
