Why does this series not get the attention it deserves???

I just finished the series last night, and holy shit I was surprised how much I liked it.

sure most of the mobile suits in the series are fairly unoriginal.. but the story line is refreshing for a gundam series.

it is an acquired taste, /m/ is Tumblr A Gundam territory, you are not allow to like it.

welcome to the club.

I'm not watching it 'til the BDs come out anon, but I love the MS designs.
Also, did Tiffa's name inspire Tifa's in ff7? couldn't find any other etymology for it desu.

I doubt they decided Tifa's name less than a year from release, so probably not.

Its a neat series that remixes the standard "EARTHNOIDS VS SPACENOIDS" formula in interesting ways.

And the hero Gundams are sexy as hell.
>>
>>13981288
I mean the moon release of course.
At this rate though 0080 & G will come first, with X in the dust in 2019 probably.
We'll most likely have to rely on OZC at that point ;_;

X is well respected, but not often discussed because it was already seen by the majority of the fanbase long ago. It's bee widely available since the very early 2000s.

It seems to be ignored even when it's rarely in SRW. Do any Gundam protags have support lines for Garrod?

It has a pretty big part in Alpha Gaiden.

but in that case Amuro.

Loran, Kamille, Shinn, and Amuro in SRW Z1.

I think Kira, as well.

Don't tell that to the Gyro-rager. It's still better than when he had to direct the second half of Wing (plus between that and Goldran he was clearly overworked).

>>13983867
The first halves of that and ZZ are both set for June 7th release.
Right now preorder prices are $33 for X, $39 for ZZ.
>>
>>13984167
X at its worse is the Estardo arc, which is pretty much IBO tier.
>>
>>13985762
There are far worse Gundam shows than X and IBO, though. While I am enjoying IBO, I can't say it's one of my favorites. X is, though.
>>
>>13981244
The greatest thing to come out of this series was the music. Dream and Resolution were god tier.
>>
>>13981244
After War Gundam X aired in the season after Neon Genesis Evangelion. That is a serious case of whiplash.
>>
>>13984067

Except for Heero none of them were in games with Garrod when they started having crossover lines for characters, or in the case of Domon, in a voiced game with him at all.

Why Heero who always has tons of lines, has nothing for Garrod though is a mystery, although I don't think Heero has support lines for any Gundam pilot outside his own series for some reason.
>>
>>13983735

It's too late.

I mean support it and all and it will probably do ok, but if they'd followed Wing up with X on Toonami a 15 years ago Gundam could have been much much bigger in the US that it is now.
>>
>>13981244
>>13988833
That's not the real reason. It was because of Gundam Fatigue. Gundam X was the 4th gundam show in 4 years. By that point the public had gotten tired of gundam. For a series that lived and died based on model sales, it suffered. Based on TV ratings it did quite well, equal to G and Wing. But the toy sales really suffered.

That's why nowadays gundam usually follows 2 24 episode seasons per title (00, Build Fighters, IBO); to let the public rest and refresh between seasons.
>>
>>13989572
They also kept repeatedly changing the broadcast times, to times that people don't normally watch TV like late at night or early morning. So not only did you have people not knowing when it's on but also not being awake at the time ether.
