Since you started complaining seed to wing. Wing also sucked. BIG TIME. You know why? A group of five bishounen boybands are tasked to infiltrate the Oz... And then what? Colonies asking for independence, and they put all there hope in a group of five boy bands.
2. Character development; I'm not a seed fan but kira insists that he is not as suppose you're tyring to portray. He's still a normal human being that he is judged not by ability alone. About that flay scene, kira never intented to steal sai's gf. He is in pain and trouble coz he's not a soldier in the first place. He asks for comfort, and sadly (ugh) flay only is the one who talks to him. About being arrogant he only roams to battlefield to disable enemy suits not killing them. It's still better than watching 5 homicidal boybands in gundam wing slaughtering helpless grunts and the main hero maniacally laughing. And don't start with wufei he's a hypocrite and disgusting that he talks about honor but killas an army while at their sleep.
4. If seed lacks proper villain, wing suffers that by two folds. It is clearly implied that the distinction and racial discrimination is the greatest enemy in seed. In the battlefield, kira engages on aces in the likes of the red coat, desert tiger, fed druggies, heine weistenfluss, shinn asuka while wing lacks that kind of aces. What does wing have? Zechs who is clear blatant rip-off of char? Treize who is like a rip-off of paptimus scircco? Oz does have the budget on mass producing suits but not the effctive pilots. They rush to the gundams begging to be destroyed and dies indignified. Sigh...
5. About the colony drop, isnt it zeon are the first one to use it making wing a bunch of copycat. Zeon wanted revenge to earth, char wanted a massive space migration so that humans can evolve to newtypes. The former soldiers of zaft done the junius seven drop out of revenge because of the bloody valentine. Then why operation meteor??? They all just get drunk, and come up with hey, let's throw something on earth!!!
