Story aside, how does /m/ feel about Universal Century Gundam's worldbuilding and setting? Is it well-made?
>>
>>13786991
Better than any other timelines.
Except for Turn A.
But that's only because its part of the UC.
>>
>>13786991
My honest answer?
Yeah

My /m/ persona answer?
No, it's poorly written inconsistent shit
>>
>>13786991
All in all, yeah.

If it has any problem going for it, it's the 'too many cooks' effect it has developed over the years as new creators add onto it and try to modify parts of the history and setting to suit their needs and preferences, creating a lot of the oft-debated weird continuity of the sidestories and the like.

>>13787020
Out of genuine curiosity, why DO you feel the need to do that?
>>
>>13787020
>No, it's poorly written inconsistent shit

But it is. There's literally nothing about Gundam that doesn't revolve around "muh spacenoid freedom", "muh newtypes", and "muh mobile suits".
>>
>>13786991
Oh shit, I never noticed Al was in that shot.
>>
>>13787020
>My /m/ persona answer?
These are the types of people that are contributing to the degradation of this board.

What are you trying to prove?
>>
>>13788173
Al would be in his 20's by Unicorn
>>
>>13786991
Everything is good up through Zeta, but afterwards the world building takes a nose dive with the whole endless stagnation to server as a convenient plot device for endless zeon revivals.
>>
>>13788098
>it's inconsistent
>"it literally revolves around these three constant things"

That sounds pretty consistent to me.
>>
>>13786991
>naming a boy "Tikva"
Then again, I guess that's as consistent as "Kamille", so I guess they're just an androgynous society
>>
>>13788175
Contrary, this is the kind of person that isn't afraid to say their actual opinion, more honest people the better
>>
>>13786991
Honestly? It's my favourite SF setting.

I love the idea of colonies, how it justifies MS, Zeon, hell, I love newtypes, or the idea of it, at least.

Sure, it has its problems, but I love it nonetheless.

>>13790141
I think it's more likely that naming conventions have just changed by the time of UC. There's not much evidence of it being a gender neutral society or anything.
>>
>>13787020

Honestly, I really want to know , what do you think is the best written consistent shit ? I need to know your taste in anime before I can judge that your opinion is worthy or not.
