I’m a long time Gundam fan boy, got started on Wing on Toonami as a kid and then 0079, G, and a few other series. But I had never gotten around to watching anything after the one year war in the UC timeline, until now.
The lines are so blurred. Zaku’s launching from Fed ships? Titans beating up on Capt. Bright of all people. Char has assumed a fake identity in the AEUG faction to continue fighting for his ideals. OH YEA AND WHAT ABOUT THE FEDS GASSING AN ENTIRE COLONY. The whole thing is a giant mess and I love it. Camille legitimately makes me frustrated so much and I love that he just keeps getting slapped multiple times every episode.
I personally love the spacenoid sentiment that since they have the technology to live off of earth, they wish to do so and let earth return to its natural processes.
Side note, if anyone wants to talk about the series with me here, please avoid spoilers, I’m only about 9 episodes in currently.
Zeta is one of my favorites. The beginning is very jarring to be sure, everything is different and there’s a lot to get straight. But it’s quite the ride.
0083 Stardust Memory fills in some of the blanks between 0079 and Zeta, but I am a staunch supporter of watching in production order your first time through. So save that one for later.
In the meantime, enjoy!
