I was looking around the general anime sec., and thought "Wheres our GSD thread?" Go back to the main page, low and behold, a GSD Forum is up!

anyways, Ep.2 was some action-packed excitement. Watching this ep, I got a better appreciation for Auel and his Abyss Gundam.

Well I think that Neo might be Mwu Laflaga?? his voice sounds similar.......and that Rey might be like the "son" of him, just like in SEED.......recurring theme???

Yah and his mobile armor kicks ass, its 4 pods now instead of the 2.

Force Shilloute > *

oh and I'm thinking Stellar prob has some crazy memory about death or something like that, or maybe shes just insane due to a sideeffect thingy thy did on her during her training?

Hey guys, I'm just wondering why AonE subbed Asuran's name into "Athrun"? I mean, Kira is subbed as Kira, Sting is subbed as Sting, but how on earth did "Asuran" became "Athrun"? I just find that very strange when the two names don't even pronounce remotely similar!

Munsu
Wed, 10-20-2004, 05:52 AM
Probably because Athrun might be the official name...

Alsu "su" is used alot for the English "th" sound

Like Smith is said "Sumisu" in Jap


But it could go either way I guess

karril
Wed, 10-20-2004, 12:38 PM
Yes, i have to agree the second episode kicked serious ass. Anyone know when Destiny airs so i can get an idea of when i should start expecting subbed episodes availible? I know that wensdays Naruto comes out and this is my second anime that i will be waiting for new episodes on. Normally i just wait till the series is done to get them. (like full metal alchemist...which i just watched for the first time)

Seed Airs in exactly the same time slot Full Metal Alchemist did for a time frame on releases.

Also I have to say overall that while I do like Destiny overall I have to 100% agree it seems currently like a rehash of seed. It should get better when they start to get into the new characters or atleast stop trying to make them remind you of old ones. I do really like the show don't get me wrong it just doesn't feel like a new series as much as a continuation of the old one. Which being a sequal it should be to a degree just not to the point where every new character resembles a old one.

Hmm, Shinn isn't as hot as Kira i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif. That's the only reason I don't like Gundam Seed: Destiny. To me GS isn't the same without Kira as the main character.

Actually there's another reason. I dont like how the new gundam looks like i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif. And how all those planes transform into one big robot. It's like those Power Ranger Megazords dammit >___<. Anyways there's my 2 cents.

Duh i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif everbody in Pervert-Sennin-Jiraiyas thread knew that [the gundam seed 2 thread].

Well. Phase two was really good, can't wait til' phase three ^_^

My favorite character is Auel, and his gundam, Abyss, have alot of weapons =^_^= ALOT

anywas. I'm working on a Gundam Seed Destiny AMV. And if you guys wanna see it when it's done, i can link it here or something. I'm also working with an own gundam model >,> P-S-J inspired me alot, but I have come up with a lots idé by my self two ^_^

Wed, 10-20-2004, 04:53 PM
hahaha its nice that i finally have a follower. reita you like your new sig? im happy with they way that one turned out.

oh well back on topic. this ep was amazing just like the 1st one and all the coming ones.

this show will only get better with time. while i do agree that impulse looks wuite faggy and useless while it connects its awesome once its the force impulse you cant denie(sp?) that. well im looking forward to a new great ep this saturday and i hope all of you are to.

finally: YESSS WE FINALLY GOT A SEED DESTINY FORUM WHOOOOPIE!!!!!!!!!!

erhm thats all i had to say take care.

Munsu
Wed, 10-20-2004, 04:56 PM
reita... next time edit you post instead of double posting...


And it does seem that the same plot lines in the early going (but didnt most Gundam series suffer the same problem) are being followed by Destiny... I really dont mind if they do so, but it would be better if the came up with some original situations

Knives122
Wed, 10-20-2004, 05:11 PM
ok just watched the episode and it was good, seeing a gundam pilot actually afraid of dying is nice to see, I agree with the person that said it looked like Shinn was to powerful(doing a 360 spin after trying to hit another gundam while blocking a laser beam(with out even seeing it), and then throwing your sword at the gundam that tried shooting you is a little too good)(but it was still bad ass), if I guess this right then more or less Neo might end up getting a gundam just b/c past gundam series(some of them) had the guy with the mask getting a gundam.

Overall alot better then the first, especially the part in the begining when Impulse is charging toward Gaia i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif

Munsu
Wed, 10-20-2004, 05:14 PM
At the contrary... even if Shinn's Gundam is more powerful than the others... he is still having a tough time with them... even Athrun had to save his ass...

The most powerful Gundam in earlier series used to be godlike (especially in the early stages of a series) but here at least we see the Gundam struggling a bit which is good

Arkain
Wed, 10-20-2004, 05:22 PM
Ahh...I see..."Asuran" does sounds better though doesn't it =]

Reita
Wed, 10-20-2004, 05:28 PM
yes it does. but somehow Athrun is the right spelling... i think its weird. but the reason for the spelling may be to get it look more english/american...

PSJ
Wed, 10-20-2004, 05:43 PM
i would say shinn and impulse is near godlike. he fights 3 strong gundams with good pilots on his own for a while. he owned stellar in the begining like it was nothing.

Terracosmo
Wed, 10-20-2004, 05:50 PM
You'll have to throw into the equation that Shinn is probably quite used to his gundam, while the other 3 ones were hijacked by people who never piloted them before.

PSJ
Wed, 10-20-2004, 05:52 PM
hmm yea you're right about that it will probably be quite evened out in a few eps when they are used to their gundams. i want to see what tha girl lunamaria really can do and i want asuran to get his freakin gundam.

Reita actually Shinn's name has two Ns. Its on the side of the Core Splendor if you want to verify. Watch Ep 1 again. i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif. Anyways. After seeing all the fans of just Wing, SEED here I figured I'd visit and talk Gundam in general while visiting the topic of Destiny.

The VA of Neo is the exact same one from Mwu. The big debate thou is whether it is Mwu or not. Those that have seen all of SEED know what happens. Its funny as Rey looks like a younger Curuuze "sp". Which would explain the newtype reaction.

I was quite pleased with Episode 2. Already we have an episode with more action in it than prolly any single episode of SEED and its only episode 2. Shinn being assigned to the Impulse Gundam clearly shows his training has paid off. Why exactly the Impulse and Savior were kept classified more so than Abyss, Chaos, and Gaia aren't revealed yet. Did anyone get to see the first 11 mins of Episode 3? I'm curious how Shinn pilots in space.
Taking on 3 gundams is not an easy task. Not to mention the EA coordinators have had some form piloting training for the new models. Some leaked information. I'm just so psyched about this series. SEED is my favorite Gundam yet of all the series and movies and already I am expecting much more from Destiny.

Enough of this already. We KNOW that you are a big Gundam fan and it makes you proud and blah blah but please, just -shut up-. You have written this in all your posts so far. It's getting annoying, the way you are throwing "all the fans of just Wing, SEED" around. You're not the only one who watches many Gundam series here. The reason why we discuss mostly GSD is because this forum IS a GSD forum, not a General Gundam one.

I mentioned it 3 of 5 posts I think. anyways what was the point of your post if I'm not adding anything yours certainly didn't add anything? And you're a mod. GSD is the topic not UC series or SEED or Wing I got it if you got it. Let not drag it out any further unless you want to. Episode 2 rocked as I said more action in than prolly any one episode of SEED.

Did people like the new EA mp designs? The GM Cannon type Daggers and those sweet black suits. I almost thought they were Quells lol. Then you have the return of the Zaku which is pretty awesome. Rey seems quite capable in piloting although at first I thought he was a girl then noticed the uniform.

3 of 5 posts = 60%. Quite a lot.
And I'm saying this just because I -am- a mod, because your attitude is fucking annoying.
It's my job to point out annoying things when people are displeased with them.
Use your superior intellect and acknowledge that.

You aren't the first person who adds "You're a mod" to the end of his sentence in some kind of attempt to make your post better. And it's equally pathetic every time I see it. If there is a book on how all mods are supposed to act in different situations, then give it to me. Otherwise, just shut up and listen to what I say.

Guardian_2000
Tue, 10-26-2004, 11:15 AM
But what are you saying. I didn't catch a point in the last two posts of yours besides you telling me not to voice my opinion and add constructive posts which I've tried to do. This is going off topic now so this is the last one for me you can reply if you want. Are we supposed to hold you in a higher regard as one who supervises and is supposed to provide an example for normal posters. Or should we consider just like any other poster? I found the FAQ to be lacking in information.

Terracosmo
Tue, 10-26-2004, 11:23 AM
No, I'm not forbidding anything. I'm telling you stop typing in every post that you are a Gundam expert who has seen lots of series, as people here find it irritating. That is all. And yes, you are supposed to hold me in "higher regard" if you want to put "follow what the mod says" that way. You don't have to worship me, but when I say something it's absolute. And that's what being a moderator is about.

I just started watching Destiny. It bothers me of how much Neo looks like Zechs from Gundam Wing. They gotta stop making villains with face masks, it's getting old. Kruz from Seed was just plain ugly.

Guardian_2000
Thu, 10-28-2004, 12:25 AM
And to think even Zechs stole the concept from Char in MSG. Its gotten to the point where I think masked villians is the part of the theme. You have gundams, masked villians, and kids piloting the gundams. Almost all gundam series have this in some form.

Board of Command
Thu, 10-28-2004, 08:05 AM
Well at least make different masks. Neo has the exact same mask as Zechs. At least Kurruze had different mask.

Guardian_2000
Thu, 10-28-2004, 11:27 AM
They are similiar sure but not the "exact" I can get images if we wanted to go over the details. But also if you consider their masks to be exact then you might want to look at how Kurruze's mask is so similiar to Chars.

Its gundam, its hard to be original and still have it be gundam. Destiny is suspected of being very similiar to Zeta. Time will only tell. Seed was similiar to MSG starting off but then broke away and turned out to be an awesome series. Hopefully Destiny finds originality later on as well.

PSJ
Thu, 10-28-2004, 12:07 PM
neos mask doenst look that similar to zechs mask. do you even remember how zechs mask looked? the masked guy is a cool touch to it. i dont know about char but kruuze was fucked up he was i cool character tho zechs was a pussy....

awww damn i want ep 3 now!!! only 2 days left!!!

nah zechs mask got a more helmet shape to it its a plain round thing he puts on his head with round things over the ears then a kruuze kind of mask attached to it in front of his eyes and nose. neos helmet got red strokes all over it and looks quite diffrent its not completly round.

isnt EA more or less blue cosmos? they tok control over EA at the end of seed im guessing that the attack is their idea.

Guardian_2000
Sun, 10-31-2004, 04:33 PM
The EA actually is independant of the Blue Cosmos. If its the same as SEED there are however two sides of the EA. The Atlantic and Eurasia forces. However while independant they are still influenced. Blue Cosmos have influence throughout the federation it seems and from what I've read about Destiny the new leader has even more power than the last. So they could be working together throughout the series. Maybe not.
