4th Day of an Anime Christmas

Posted by Neko Kyou in Random Fun on December 17th, 2007

On the 4th day of Christmas, my anime gave to me…

Gundam 00

4 Brand New Gundam.

Gundam 00 (aka g00ey) first few episodes did not impress me at all. While many others had praised it, I found it to be sucky and downright poor. Even Gundam Seed Destiny’s first impression was better.

But in later episodes I began to find a strange appeal to the very overpowered Gundams, especially in the latest few episodes. The Meister’s are beginning to push their Gundams more as they are backed into a corner and the struggle that was lacking earlier on finally forces some character development to take place among the emo pilots.

The Meisters aside, the Gundams are cool. And if they can continue to come up with surprises such as the one below, it’s only going to get better.

Gundam Nadleeh

“Surprise! I am a she-male after all!”

I know I make fun of g00ey a lot, but seriously, it’s much better than I expected and is definitely memorable. How often do you see a Gundam perform a sex-change (or at least, turn into another unit) in front of your very eyes? :)

12 Days of an Anime Christmas thus far…

    Heh, I’ve been scratching my head to come up with alternative names for the four latest Mobile Suits. So far we’ve Penknife Gundam, Camper Gundam and Transgender Gundam, but a suitable title for Kyrios eludes me.

    And you’re right, there has been some improvement in the action as the suits have been pushed more (miles away from that scene in an early episode where Lockon was just blowing his enemies away with a Gundam pistol).

    lol those are right on the spot with Exia, Dynames and Virtue. Kyrios hasn’t really stood out up so far, so that’s probably why its harder to pin a nickname for it. The Meister, on the other hand, is now a certified psycho with dual personalities.
