They now have most of the mainline UC series. I might do like a marathon of the entire thing soon.

I refuse to give Crunchyroll money. Thankfully there are plenty of... alternatives.

Is it worth it? How does it fare compared to the other Gundam series?

Zeta Gundam is weird. To me, it has some of the strongest material in the whole entire Gundam series, but also some downright frustrating parts. I feel it needed some rewriting and some editing down to trim the fat. To a ton if not most of Gundam fans, it's the GOAT, but I'll always like the OG better. Then again I'm a weirdo.

Probably the best UC series imo.
I'm weird and like ZZ unlike most, but Z is peak Gundam.

You're not weird. I love Zeta but 0079 was better. I loved Amuro's progression of piloting the Gundam and then coming to the realization that the Gundam's performance couldn't handle him. Plus I love Char and Amuro's rivalry.

Zeta was great but I still love 0079 more.

I'm actually in the middle of watching 00. That's actually my favorite series, even over the mainline series. I think the only issue was that Season 1 was so good that season 2 paled in comparison and it sucks because it was always going to be really tough to top season 1. Season 2 felt like it relied too much on the old Gundam tropes.

To bad that they are not the better dubbed version and not even the BR version.

I personally though the big three series were the worst parts of UC, with Zeta being the worst, but I'm pretty sure I'm in the minority with that opinion.

I never did finish it, but I didn't hate what I did see like I thought I would because of all the bad talk of it. Judau is very likeable. I even laughed at some of the slapsticky parts.

79 will always be my favorite for some reason despite its issues. I love the mobile suit designs, the corny soundtrack, and Amuro's journey and rivalry with Char. I think it's overall simple story helps it. Some Gundam shows can have parts that get a little too convoluted and contrived, at least to me. I mean, it's the one that gets ripped offed all the time so that should say something. That's a minor issue with Zeta for me. There's too many similarities in the story/characters. I know there's a theme of things being cyclical, but there's too much of it.

My biggest problem with Zeta is that I really dislike Kamile. Though it has been a while since I watched it, might change my mind about him now.

I watched the original series a few months ago and liked it well enough. Not sure if I want to watch a different one next, or just go into Zeta. I know Zeta is supposed to be one of the best ones, but I kind of want to watch a more modern/fairly recent one.

Try Gundam 00. It's more recent but don't let the age fool you for some of these series. Personally they're still really good. I wasn't a fan of iron blooded orphans and I haven't tried the series yet.

Good recommendation. Season 1 of 00 is great, but does it gets stupid later on. I did like Iron Blooded Orphans and recommend that one as well, though.

IBO is indeed great as is Witch from Mercury even with Bandais appease China dumb ass retcon of the ending that everyone should ignore and continue to take the piss out of, hell maybe them saying its open to interpretation should be open to interpretation lol.

Is Witch from Mercury any good? I loved the prologue episode, then the first episode made me smash my head against the wall.

A year or two back, I got the urge to watch some Gundam, and so watched 08th MS Team on Hulu. After that, I decided to watch Stardust Memory, but was puzzled when I couldnt find it on Hulu.

A quick dig later, and I was flabbergasted to see assorted Gundam series exclusively on Hulu, Netflix, Crunchyroll, and I think one more platform.

I mean shit if youre going to make individual series exclusively available somewhere, fucking pick a platform and put the whole franchise on it!

Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less.

I only had CR during the ToP part of DBS and it wouldn't work for a couple hours after an episode aired.
