Oh, and Reconguista in G. If you like old, old UC Gundam, RiG is probably the best series since Zeta. At least, I adored it. It was great to see Tomino make something without extreme depression.

I'd regard it more favorably than everything else Gundam has to offer tbh. Nostalgia aside, it just hits every point you'd check off when asking what makes a series great.

IBO was the first time Ive enjoyed Gundam in more than a decade. People were way too upset about it not having a diabetes-inducing happy ending like most anime.

The fact that IBO reminded me more of BattleTech than Gundam didnt hurt.

I feel like I don't really see that as major complaint about the series. Gundam for the larger part has always been pretty melancholy with its resolutions. I don't think that's a genuine criticism from the people that discredit the show.

*Kid accidentally falls into cockpit of Gundam*

Kid: "Huh? What's this? I don't know how to pilot this thing!"

*Kid kills dozens of mobile suits piloted by soldiers specifically trained for MS combat*

Any time they pull this shit, I stop watching.

According to the lore of the show, Newtypes have the ability to automatically understand how machines work. Kinda silly and it's only mentioned as a throwaway plot point, but yeah. An exception to this is Gundam SEED but that is explained away by the fact that Kira is a robotics engineer.

Gundam The Origin was great. There was also Gundam Build Fighters, Thunderbolt, and Unicorn. I enjoyed the combat in IBO more than most of the other series and it was not bad overall. Also really liked the first episode of Battlogue.

Gundam AGE had its moments but kind of fell off of a cliff. Oddly haven't gotten around to watching Reconguista in G or the other series that followed Build Fighters. Haven't really heard anything about them and more or less forgot that they existed.

Why is it that he can hit a 3rd baseman on a frozen rope from 300 feet away, but he can't hit a 12 foot tall catcher from 60 feet 6 inches away?

most of that is coincidence, such as having computers draw things nowadays.
