G Gundam isn't like anything else Gundam but it sure is fun. You gotta watch the dub is only for Master Asia's call and the announcer. SEED is a solid series and you have to watch it before Destiny. I know many UC guys hate those shows but they did what they were meant to do, reintroduce the core Sunday concepts to a new generation.

Wing is what most of us in the west first encountered. You have to see the first set of episodes in order to really grasp what its about. It is a good series and my nostalgia sometimes blinds me to it's flaws, such as all the emo guy characters aimed at getting the female audience or the really stupid decisions they make in a few episodes. Occasional annoying characters are sort of a Gundam tradition.

If you are going to watch the UC stuff I would suggest starting with "8th MS Team" then "0083 Stardust Memory". They are both short and give you a great framing for that universe. Then go watch the original Mobile Suit Gundam and Zeta if you liked the first two.

SEED isn't a bad place to start and at least that way you won't feel like you've seen it all before. The mobile suit designs are some of my favorites.

So I watched Season one Episode one of Digimon, and now I'm watching E1 S1 of Digimon Adventure... And Adventure is just better. The opening alone makes this worth a watch. I liked Digimon's opening, but.. no Adventure is just better. Like with all things: If they made an american version, watch the Japanese first.

Netflix even as it subbed not dubbed!

Sentai I can give you a link to torrents other digimon shows subbed and uncut with no changes

If you are going to watch the UC timeline, I'd say stick to the series in timeline order. Do it as the 0079 Movie Trilogy, 08th MS Team, 0083, Zeta, Double Zeta, Char's Convoluted Antics, and Unicorn.

There are others, but they are either down right boring (0080 and Victory) or pointless (F91).

As for Wing, I love how people assume you saw it first. NOthing on anyone here, but I had a guy once say, "Well you like Wing the best because it is the first one you saw" even though I had actually seen the Movie Trilogy many months before Wing came to CN.

Oh yeah, do NOT waste your time with the Zeta movies. Unlike the original series, the Zeta movies completely screw up the show, character motivations are eliminated, and they royally ****ed up the ending, taking away one of the best Gundam endings ever.

G Gundam is pretty much Dragonball Z with mecha. Turn A is like watching a Gundam version of Escaflowne. SEED is pretty much a remake of the original series. Oh, and Age is utter crap. If you want to watch Beydam, more power to you.

Thanks for all your help everyone! This is way more complicated than I expected it to be... Still right now G-Gundam is the only torrent that is actually downloading, so I guess the client is making the decision for me.

Majestic Prince 11 "Frickin' 3D girls."

This episode took the show back to its roots and was incredibly enjoyable because of it, especially with the way it highlighted just how good each pilot is individually and it still had enough tying into the wider things in play to stop it feeling like complete filler. It's just a shame this series is about as original as a goth is unique.

My just rewatch the original mobile suit fundamental series I read In manga form how the show were made and how the movies where just a movie length of the original series but the original series I prefer. More the the movies but I did enjoy zeta fundamental as a show and never finished watching double zeta but I did watch chars counter attack but is there any point watching unicorn cause that set in the UC time line

[KR Blade King Form]

I also recommend Gundam Wing as it's the first Gundam series ever released in the USA.

has any one else seen this show cause the opening getting me want to watch it

I managed to find this guy on Youtube uploading the old "Sony" dub of Rurouni Kenshin or Samurai X as it was called back in the day. The dub is by and far pretty terrible, some of the characters were misnamed (Kaoru was referred to as Kory, Yahiko is called Yoshi) but the voices for some of the characters (Kenshin, Sano, Saitou and Shishio in particular) were well casted.

Some of the lines were clearly added in but there were some very cool nuggets of dialogue. For example Shishio's famous last (English) words:

"The will is only as strong as the person within whom it abides. You are strong Battousai but you're not the strongest. As you are about to find out the strongest is ME!!! I knew you'd make a fine meal Kenshin! The time has come to eat!!"

This was the dub I grew up on, this was my first major anime fixation. Finding almost every episode dubbed online was a great trip down memory lane. And as I eagerly await in vain for the whole series to be released on a subbed Blu-Ray volume (hopefully to include this particular dub), I'll happily keep watching this channel.
