Some may know that G Gundam was wildly my entry Gundam show, a few years after airing via a dodgy VCD set sourced by a schoolmate (Japanese audio, Chinese subs).. 😆 However.. I haven’t watched the show in full, since then. Tomorrow, this changes! Just before this 30th anniversary year wraps 😅 - ThreadSky

Enjoy the ride. It gets a lot of flack but I loved it. Kyojiiiiiii!!!!! 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️

Thank you!! I remember loving it at the time, but it’s been so long….

I’m due for another rewatch myself but in December I do Wing. 2 eps a day so I can watch ep 49 and endless waltz on Christmas Eve. I try to sequence war in the pocket in somewhere too between all that 😂😂

The true Christmas Gundam run, much respect 🎄😭

Peak entry. Mine was Cucuruz Doan, which in hindsight is pretty funny.

That’s pretty neat though. Did you find it held its own without the OG show’s narrative context? Assuming enough so for you to continue with the franchise?!

I felt like it delivered, really. I was drawn by the story, self-contained but ofc tied to the overarching story. I then proceeded to watch Witch from Mercury S1 as it aired!

The fact that I then watched CCA w friends before the OG series is pretty funny to me.

Gundam is in my tops favs Gundam series. I draw so much inspiration and references from G Gundam. It is so good.❤️

thats nearly the same way for me! a friend gave me a tape recording of all of G Gundam, and it was chinese subbed too. I didn't understand Japanese or Chinese so I was just going by the pure emotion of the show, which worked out fine lol

Ha, snap! Totally, I recall discussing some of the plot point with my friend (who was Chinese), and being pretty close with what I’d assume based on the visuals and delivery.

Memories of watching Real Player fansubs sent by an American friend over AIM...

I also used to receive ADV anime VHS scheduling updates in the post, as a basic black and white spreadsheet on A4 paper..
