People who shit on G-Reco are casuals who have seen very few mecha. These people haven't seen many, if any, Tomino anime so they got something completely unexpected. Anyone who has seen at least five different Tomino TV anime would have known what they're getting into.
Zeta is an old cult classic most people like, so these casuals aren't going to go against the status quo and claim it's shit. They might actually even believe that they like it, simply because they're expected to like it and they have easily impressionable minds. If Zeta was made today and didn't have the reputation it has, they would shit on it just as much as they shat on G-Reco.

What? Zeta Gundam's biggest complainst is how every character action makes no fucking sense and how poorly developed the bulk of the cast are, towards the end you are thrown into a huge scale battle with no buildup after Four dies...again and Tomino just says fuck it and starts killing off characters left and right, try actually watching Zeta at some point. Victory is infamously known for Tomino trying to sabotage the production which is why so many details in the plot are hand waved (why is Katejina suddenly evil?) and character s doing more incomprehensible things. You're gonna have to try REAL hard to convince why G-Reco made less sense than either of them.
>>
>>139883882
The single greatest show created, unfortunately you need to have an iq higher of 100 to enjoy it. It's rare to find that in anime watchers so most people just hate it despite it having

But the plot was pretty simple, you had 3 factions in both Zeta and Victory and the 3 were well defined and simplistic. G-Reco was like dozens of different groups of people fighting each other and you barely knew who they were. It was a freaking mess.

Plus the G-Reco characters don't make any sense, so with G-Reco it is the plot and the characters that are nonsensical versus only the characters in Zeta and Victory.

Kek. Only the Titans had any sort of development, the AEUG stops being relevant after a while and Neo Zeon shows up out of nowhere to do nothing. Victory never actually explains what the Zanscare wants to do and their actions don't make much sense either, the EF is pretty much non-existent as well.

The Capital Guard, The Townsnagans and Aida's Group. WOW WHAT A CLUSTERFUCK! THIS IS SO HARD

I love how your refute none of my points

He was given a mission by the Capital Guard to spy on the pirates, why do you think in the previous episode he tells him to come to his office?

>let's kill former friends and people from same country, nothing bad will happen
He never actually tries to kill them, in episode 4 he's in fact trying to give up.
>now we have to stop war with the moon?

You didn't even try to pay attention did you? Not even for shitposting purposes.
>we are going to Venus, for some reason; following super secret peace keeper ship, while being pirates
Venus Globe was mentioned in the first fucking episode, and they're the crux of the entire conflict since they make the batteries that people are fighting for

This logic makes no sense because G-Reco wouldn't exist if Tomino wasn't involved in it.

Reinforce what?

Yes, but, here me out now, WHAT IF, by some magical twist of fate, Tomino wasn't involved with G-reco but it still existed in the exact same form as it does now, the only difference being some other random director's name tacked onto it and no indication that Tomino was involved.

That's impossible.
>>
>>139890091
>Ibo is just a mediocre to bad show that /m/ hates because it had a better reception than Greco
No, IBO is hated because it's, in your own words, "mediocre to bad". AZ sold less than G-Reco and is just as hated as IBO is. It's the casuals/fujos who love IBO who constantly bring up G-Reco and /m/, because they can't accept that other people might not love it as much as they do so they need to blame /m/ as a boogeyman.

>Greco is a mediocre show that /m/ loves because it was made by Tomino. If it was done by ANYONE else it would be rated worst than SEED
If G-Reco was made by anyone else besides Tomino it would not be G-Reco. It's a thoroughly Tomino-esque anime. If it was exactly the same anime but directed by an unknown, mystery director, 99.99% of the people who like Tomino anime would argue to death that it was secretly directed by Tomino.
