>then why there isnt a gundam series where the protagonist uses a zaku or similar for the entire series or most of it?

See, Gundam 0080
Also arguably Thunderbolt

The Zaku is popular, but it doesn't have a heroic look to it, and series tend to insist that their protagonist uses something that looks heroic most of the time.

It's the poster boy as the antagonist mecha, I think people would find it odd if it took centre stage in a full proper series.

i can understand that but i think it could be fun, plus it gives room to play around

the history of a grunt in a band of brothers style tale

a pressed pilot called to defend hometown and the only thing they got is a good ol' zaku, and has to use smarts rather than fancy-ass devices

thats what i can think, im sure that it can be done nicely

Did you ever watch 0079?
Doans Island is basically that.
The Zaku doesn't even have a gun, he uses Zakung-fu

>it doesn't have a heroic look to it,
disagree.
Zaku are really powerful, and GMs suck.

Gundam the Origin has been cockblocking us so far and been nothing but Char and Zakus for four episodes now.

Because believe it or not but the gundam tends to sell better than the zaku.
