    i haven’t seen them yet! or i haven’t finished them at least. i’m watching gundam in release order except for when someone wants to watch something out of order with me (which happened for turn a, ibo, and the origin). so i’m currently watching g gundam and watched a few episodes of wing a while back

    g gundam is fun so far but not really interesting. i watch an episode, i am somewhere between slightly and extremely uncomfortable with its portrayal of a given nationality, there’s a fight that’s decently enjoyable but not super interesting. i’m still early on so i have hope it’ll get more interesting but so far it’s gonna be one of my least favorites just because it’s not great at the stuff i like gundam for and it’s got enough problems (animation isn’t spectacular, racism sometimes, characters don’t have that much going on so far) that make it hard for me to really enjoy the spectacle of it all. but like, it’s totally fine you know? i’m not really likely to quit it anytime soon, i’m just not particularly invested in seeing what comes next

    wing is peak melodrama from what i remember, which rules. i’m a big fan of all that stuff. but my memories of the first couple episodes are fuzzy and all my later knowledge comes from linkin park amvs so i can’t get much more specific than that

    what are your thoughts on them?
