It gets way more praise than it should. The only thing that made that suit good was the pilot. The Exia itself seriously looks like it could break in half if a normal suit got it's hands on it.

Of course, I'm more of a fan of the more burly suits that can get into those kind of brawls. That's why two of my favorites are the Full Cloth and the Custom Gouf from 08th MS team

...But the Crossbone is even smaller then the Exia.

I love Exia. The design is one of the best MS designs I have ever seen. All those sharp angles and nice shoulders....

And the bulk or "lack thereof" shouldn't really matter, since it is ridicuolusly durable in the show.

yeah, but if we're going by indestructibility in shows, then every SEED Gundam is made of invincible.

No just Strike Freedom.

That's okay, neither do I. It's a totally generic anime robot. Too many basic shapes and angles, and a totally bland colourscheme. There's nothing in it's design that's not done with more finesse and nuance anywhere else. It's like baby's first "cool" design. All angles and sharp lines with no originality or personality.

To say he has a bland color scheme, is like saying every other main MS is bland. Not his fault his color are based on the typical lead mobile suit colors and him being the actual lead MS.

The X-1 yeah, but it can get into a scrap or two with a pilot that's new to it, not one that's already skilled. That alone proves it's toughness. (That and it kicks enemies with knives in it's foot to do more damage)

Not only that, but I'm talking about the Full Cloth. You've seen it's defenses on Build Fighters Try. Those I-fields alone are a solid defense, and what they don't show is that it also has an energy shield. Not a regular one that can break.Plus the Full Cloth armor itself is a good defense as well.

If the energy shield breaks or dissipates, the suit can just turn it back on. The Full Cloth is also armed to the teeth. The Murasame Blade alone is a deadly weapon, but then it also has the Peacock Smasher, Drill Whips, Daggers, Beam Sabers, Beam Cutlass, Beam Zanber, and the Skull Boxing gloves (which use the I-fields to punch even harder).

The Exia gets Seven Swords, which it's most iconic attack is getting rid of 5 of them by using them on one suit. After the Seven Swords, it goes straight to 00. Yeah, it gets the Trans Am system, but all that does it make it faster.

I get why people like the Exia. It's simple, sleek, and fast. I just like suits that seem like they can last in a fight longer. I do like my share of grunt suits, but only because of looks or pilots involved with them.

to be honest, I always liked Virtue (AKA, the big fatty) over Exia.

I liked the Cherudim best.

The Virtue is basically a huge shout out/fusion of the GP-02 and NT-1, two of my favorite UC suits. Only 00 mecha I own any form of product of.
