If my posting history and username didn't tip you off already, I'm a huge Gundam fan. I loved the hell out of the first season, which spent its time shitting on the stupidity of SEED (preaching pacifism at gundampoint) and Wing, and was fascinated by the fact that the protagonists were essentially the villains. Gundam hadn't really done that since 0080, and those guys were far enough removed from Space Hitler that the moral gray of the Universal Century covered the antagonists well enough that they were fine as villains. Well then the second season started with a bang and I was extremely excited. Unfortunately, that was basically the last bang of the series, which introduced new characters and brought back old ones and immediately proceeded to accomplish nothing with most of them. The show wasn't bad per se, and there was definitely plenty of decent if unfulfilling action throughout, but it was essentially a waste of time. I mean, it's an enjoyable enough waste of time, but I was expecting more, especially given its pedigree. It's still pretty damn far from the worst part of the franchise, regardless of what some people were saying. 3/5

I'm thinking sometime after a few months have passed I'll probably re-watch the entire series, I saved up then watched 21 through 25 all in one day. Overall I was very satisfied with both seasons. A must see Gundam series to cleanse ones mind of Gundam SEED/Destiny. Out of giant robot shows, it earns a 5/5.
